A retired actor/model, Chihaya, is assigned to manage up-and-coming model (and his childhood friend) Shion! An emotional BL love story between childhood friends reconnecting as adults in the entertainment industry!

Having grown up in the spotlight as a renowned child actor, Chihaya is finally ready to step offstage for good.

After announcing his retirement, Chihaya is appointed to manage an up-and-coming model returning from abroad: Shion--Chihaya's childhood friend, whom he hasn't seen in three years.

The last time they saw each other, they were consumed by lust and almost crossed a line... until Chihaya stopped them. And Shion never forgot it.

Now forced to work together, old embers of desire begin to spark between them, and Chihaya and Shion must confront their long-buried feelings and decide what they are to each other before the paparazzi has a chance to decide for them...!

Frequently asked questions

You’ve asked, we answered.

Visit FAQ Page

Do you offer free shipping?

We offer free shipping on all orders over $75.

As a small, growing shop, we partner with trusted distributors to ship books directly to you. This allows us to offer a much wider selection while we build toward our first physical space.

We also use tiered shipping, which means the more you add to your cart, the lower the shipping cost per book becomes. So that means, even if you’re not quite at $75 yet, it often makes sense to grab one more volume and save overall.

Why shop with you instead of big retailers?

Every order supports a small, Latina-owned manga shop built by real fans who care deeply about the stories, the art, and the culture around it.

We curate with intention, not algorithms, and we’re building something bigger than a storefront: a space for collectors, readers, and fans to connect.

What is your return policy?

Because of how we currently fulfill orders, we’re not able to accept general returns at this time.

The only exception is if your order arrives damaged or incorrect. If you experience either, please reach out to us at casitademanga@gmail.com
and we’ll be more than happy to personally help you with a damage/error return.

Can I cancel or change my order?

We move quickly to get your order on its way.

If you need to make a change, contact us as soon as possible and we’ll do our best to catch it before it ships. Once it’s on the way, we’re unable to modify the order.
