Shigeta is an attractive and "physically active" female looking for her soulmate in all the wrong places. In this day and age, love is a game people play to gain an advantage over others. Sincerity and honesty are often thrown by the wayside in an effort to get to the top. However, there are those—like Shigeta—who still look for true love in spite of it all.

Happy Mania 2 features story and art by Moyoko Anno. It's a brand new year and Shigeta decides to swear off men for good, a resolution that doesn't last long, of course. In the course of this volume, she gets kidnapped by her stalker, and hears Takahashi profess his love for her - only to have him fly off to America when all is said and done.

Shigeta is unhappy with her long-distance relationship, and soon meets a handsome ceramics artist who takes her blues away. She ends up quitting her job and becoming an apprentice at his studio. Meanwhile, Fuku falls head over heals for a new boyfriend who's perfect for her, renewing Shigeta's faith in fate. Life seems to be heading in the right direction for the first time in ages when Shigeta discovers that her new crush is not exactly on the level. Sometimes it's not who you know but what you know them that matters. Then out of the blue Takahashi shows up at Shigeta's door and compliates matters even further. Will the drama ever end?!
