Fatale Game

Synopsis

"If it means that I can read your work again, I'll even chase you to the ends of the earth." Seri Tainaka, writing under the pen name Nanakusa, is a mid-career manga artist living in the shadow of her only one-hit-wonder. Her series "To Hell and Back" was adored by fans, but despite now being a ten-year veteran, her successes ended there. So when Seri is told that she is being assigned a new editor, it only fuels her insecurities. When Seri meets the quirky Sumire Futami, she's both creeped out and captivated by the strange and overly forthright woman, who claims she'd go to hell and back to make her a success again. But just when Seri starts to think she and Futami might be an unstoppable duo, she meets the other manga artists Futami is assigned to, and a dangerous game of jealousy, envy, and femme fatales begins. It turns out that Futami has no qualms about going back and forth between which of her artists capture her attention the most, and they'll stop at nothing to win the number one spot in their fickle editor's heart!
