About VIZ Shortcake Cake:
Ten Serizawa has a two-hour commute through the mountains to high school every day, so she can’t spend much time hanging out with her friends in the afternoon. She decides to move into the local boardinghouse, where one of her friends and three other boys are living. Ten’s friends consider her to be as oblivious as a rock when it comes to noticing boys and falling in love, but will she be able to keep her calm and steady heart in her new living situation?

“Still waters run deep in Shortcake Cake, a new series by suu Morishita, a popular team of creators in Japan,” says Nancy Thistlethwaite, Senior Editor. “Engaging characters and cool art will take you on a surprisingly captivating romantic journey.” 

Shortcake Cake was created by a manga duo known under the pseudonym, suu Morishita. In 2010, they debuted with the one-shot, “Anote Konote.” Their other published works include Hibi Chouchou and Shortcake Cake.
