Bunny girls do not live in libraries. This is simply common sense. And yet, that's exactly where Sakuta runs into one in the wild. Sakuta launches an investigation to figure out what's making this bunny girl invisible to everyone around them.

Description

DOUBLE TROUBLE?! Sakuta is eager to finally have a chance to spend time with Mai again, but instead, he's greeted by a stranger who looks just like her. Apparently, Adolescence Syndrome is paying Mai another visit and has forced her to swap bodies with Nodoka Toyohama, a flashy up-and-coming idol...who also happens to be Mai's half sister!

With no resolution in sight, each sister must pretend to be the other and go about their respective lives as best they can. Trouble is, it seems like Nodoka is preoccupied with something besides walking in Mai's shoes...

Rascal Does Not Dream of Siscon Idol (light novel) by Andrew Cunningham, Keji Mizoguchi, and Hajime Kamoshida is a captivating addition to the series.
