A person cannot be both bound by something and free from it.

Set in the dystopic future: A girl steals a bag from an old woman, a fellow member of a homeless colony. All the bag contains are volume after volume of shoujo manga. But even after the girl has finished reading all the volumes, our story is still not complete...

This series is a set of several extremely short pieces: usually between 2-4 pages in length. They vary wildly in mood, character and art style, and the detail is often stunning.

Note: The manga was serialized in Kodansha's novel and manga fiction magazine, which does not targeted a specific demographic rather the general reader.

Collection of various oneshots, including Katou Shinkichi’s debut work, which was originally published on November 22, 1990 in Weekly Morning.

From Mangascreener:

Sakai and Shoji are two idiots. Their band, Moozmuz, is eccentric, flamboyant and silly. Gogh, their classmate, is a quiet but intense clothes designer. Watch the friendship between these three artists blossom and suffer, rendered in Shinkichi Kato's vibrant, lively art. The two volumes also contain a pair of one-shots each.
