This is a story that takes place in a certain prefecture in the north. In contrast to the few daylight hours it gets, its people are cheerful if a bit eccentric.

Among them is Akita, a horned girl. A naturally argumentative and positive child, she lives happily every day. Spicing up her life is Asahi, her slightly odd childhood friend, and Komachi, a city girl who isn't quite used to life in the prefecture yet. There's also Akita's older sister, a member of the Girl Scouts... Wait, what's her name, again?

Anyway, these cheerful and innocent girls will bring a smile to even zombies. Whenever you're feeling blue or tired... give it a read. With any luck, their antics will cheer you up.
