Bogle (manga)

There's nothing harder than starting fresh at a new high school...unless it's having to hide your secret identity as a cat-burglar! Asuka is just your average, ordinary girl, except for her midnight vigilante habit of stealing from evil-doers! To her surprise, she finds she's not the only thief in school...but can this lone wolf learn to play well with others?[10]

Asuka is getting to know her new teammates, and the jobs they've pulled together have all gone well...until they drop a priceless statue into the hands of an innocent bystander! Classmate Hirose has a major crush on Asuka, so it's probably a good thing he doesn't know she's the one who just got him kidnapped![11]

Asuka's past catches up to her when her former mentor is framed. Asuka will do anything to prove his innocence... well, at least in this situation! Meanwhile, threats from the ruthless, unstoppable head of a powerful corporation endanger something very precious left to Asuka by her parents - which turns out to be much more important than she could ever have imagined![12]
