31☆アイドリーム [Sātī Wan Ai Dorīmu / Thirty-one I Dream) #2

A bright-eyed young girl clutches a microphone and flashes a playful wink on this charming cover for volume two of 31☆アイドリーム, her purple hair adorned with cute ribbons as she strikes a natural, confident performer's pose against a soft pink backdrop. Published by Hakusensha under the Melody imprint, this shōjo series wears its idol-world enthusiasm right on its sleeve. If sparkly, heartfelt stories about girls chasing the spotlight are your thing, this volume makes a very appealing case for itself from the very first glance.
