Dog & Scissors

Harumi Kazuhito is a book-loving high schooler with a particular devotion to novelist Natsuno Kirihime. When he unexpectedly spots her working in a café and a robber threatens to shoot, Kazuhito steps in to protect her—only to lose his life in the process.

Thanks to a supernatural twist befitting a true bibliophile, he’s reborn as a dachshund. Trapped in a frustrating, bookless existence, Kazuhito’s fortunes shift when a sharp-tongued, scissors-wielding woman offers him a way forward—revealing herself to be Kirihime.
