Despite the synopsis of this sounding kinda suspect, it's actually quite a fluffy and funny story. The subject matter is a ero bookstore, but it doesn't really ever come up besides for jokes and isn't used to get into weird lewd stuff. The setting and characters are absurd and silly, but it plays well into the humor of it all. It's kinda actually wholesome feeling at times.

The art is pretty cute and well done. The plot is pretty much nonexistent since it mainly just a canvas for jokes, but it's also not just random nonsense like ... you'd expect from typical gag manga.

As long as you don't take it too seriously it can be a decent quick read.

A 9 year old girl working in an erotic bookstore. Some may not like it but it is fiction, think about that.
This is not a series for everyone but I would say for the lolicon community, even if you don't like lolis but you don't have anything against them you can enjoy this short story.
The elements of the story would be:
- Tsubasa with a perverted mind despite her age.
- Yuma, a succubus who is too pure and tries to be perverted
- Iroha, who says she is against lewd things but is a closet pervert.
The story is fine, the personalities of the characters don't bother me, ... that said I repeat the initial, if you don't like lolicon works this manga is not for you, if you don't have anything against the subject, you can read it without any problem.
7/10

This manga is not cute, it's weird. This manga is not funny, it's lame. This manga doesn't belong on normal manga websites, but on the forbidden websites.

I could go on like this for a pretty long time.


Houkago no Honya-san is, as the MAL synopsis says, a manga about an 𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘺 𝘴𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘰𝘭 𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘵 𝘢𝘯 𝘦𝘳𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘤 𝘣𝘰𝘰𝘬𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘦. This alone should give you the sign to not read this, but sure. Tsubasa is a nine-year-old elementary school student who loves erotic books. She meets a 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘨 succubus who wants to get more erotic. Other friends of hers - all underage - help her at the ... erotic bookstore while building friendships and making jokes. Not normal, humorous jokes: unamusing and oversexualized jokes.

All the customers of the bookstore think it's completely normal that these girls organize the place. They even call them 'cute'. Hm.

Overall, Houkago no Honya-san is not cute or funny at all, and I would most definitely not recommend it.
