==Plot==
Shouta Kisa frequents this bookstore because one of the employees, Yukina, has caught his eye. He never buys anything, he just pretends to read while he he discreetly watches Yukina flirt and sell shoujo manga to female customers.
Kisa later realizes that the manga he edits tends to sell particularly well at Marimo Books. Takafumi Yokozawa, who works in sales, has also noticed this. Yokozawa runs into Kisa at the store when he goes to see why their manga sells so well there and drags Kisa along to talk to a manager, which is how Kisa and Yukina finally meet.
Yukina puts up an elaborate display in the store for Kisa's newest manga release, Girl's Master, ordering additional copies to help it sell.
