I found a pen that turns any manga into a hit!

Aoki Itsumi was never the genius. She was just the girl who worked twice as hard, slept half as much, and held onto the dream of creating something that mattered. After two failed serializations and a third crashing in the ranks, she's officially the joke of Shonēn Black. Worse? Her college rival — the golden boy, Satoshi Morita — is climbing the charts like it’s easy.



When her series is cancelled, it feels like the end.



But that night, she finds a strange pen in her apartment. One sketch turns into something more alive. Her art improves overnight. Editors take notice. Readers flock in. She's doing the impossible.



But something is off about the pen like there's something more to it. Her rival becomes more than just a rival.



To survive the world of manga, she’ll need more than talent.

She’ll need to figure out what she’s really drawing... and who’s holding the pen.
