Halloween Oneshot: "Anata wa Watashi no Taisetsuna Okaasan? ("You are my Dear Mother") by Ume Tarou

This is a very short oneshot from the Josei magazine “Wings.”  It came in last year’s magazine extra “Horror Wings 2011.”  We didn’t have a chance this year to do some of the longer oneshots from this extra, but don’t … Continue reading Halloween Oneshot: "Anata wa Watashi no Taisetsuna Okaasan?
