From comedy to seriousness, this collection of Tsutsumi's exquisite works captivates readers with its diverse expressions!

This book is a collection of short manga by manga artist Tsutsumi Muneko, primarily featuring stories not previously published in book form. Tsutsumi debuted in Tokuma Shoten's Comic Ryu magazine in 2013, winning the first-ever Golden Dragon Award, the highest award in the Ryujin Awards for Newcomers, sponsored by the same magazine. Since then, she has appeared in magazines for young men, such as Comic Ryu and Feel Young, and more recently in webcomics. The delicate and charming illustrations are reminiscent of 1980s shojo manga, and the stories, while short, exude a profound worldview. This book is packed with diverse expressions across genres, from comedy to seriousness. It includes eight short stories, including a new illustration and her debut work, "Birthday," making it a collection of works spanning from 2013 to the latest 2025.
