Missions of Love's Toyama Starts Imōto no o Shigoto wa Jikyū 2000-en Manga
posted on by Jennifer Sherman
Ema Toyama launched the Imōto no o Shigoto wa Jikyū 2000-en (My Little Sister's Hourly Pay Is 2000 Yen) manga in the November issue of Houbunsha's Manga Time Family magazine on September 17.
The "fake family" four-panel manga centers on a high school girl named Mieko. Lured by high salary, Mieko puts herself forward for a mysterious "little sister" job. Mieko's parents ran away at night when Mieko was in elementary school. She has lived with relatives ever since, but money usually runs out. However, Mieko is also worried about being left behind by her friends and the latest trends. This questionable "little sister" job becomes Mieko's lifeline.
Toyama posted a panel from the new series on Sunday.
