3月のライオン [3-gatsu no Lion] #18

A quiet snowfall sets the mood for volume 18 of Chica Umino's beloved shogi drama, its cover showing a young man in profile, coat collar up against the winter weather, city lights glowing softly in the dark background behind him. The image captures the series' signature blend of solitude and resilience — a single figure standing in the falling snow, carrying the weight of something unspoken. Fans of March Comes in Like a Lion will find this volume's cover as emotionally understated and beautifully rendered as ever.
