Three one-shots explore friendship secrets, tomboy romance, and clashing personalities in Shiina Karuho's manga collection.
A collection of 3 one-shots by author Shiina Karuho. Ibitsu na Hoshi no Katachi: Makoto and Aya are opposites but best friends. Makoto is mature and has had many relationships.
