Imagine if a child who had passed away suddenly reappeared, looking exactly as she did before. But what if it was all the doing of a shapeshifting tanuki? This isn't a reunion. She isn't real. And yet, her parents cling to the bittersweet lie. Experience a poignant tale of loss and longing from the author of "My Clueless First Friend". (Source: Manga UP!) Note: Includes three extra chapters.
