Aho-Girl #11

Hiroyuki's cheerfully absurd comedy reaches volume 11, and the cover sets the tone perfectly: a long-haired schoolgirl in her uniform squares off against a massive, snarling bear while her round, collar-wearing white dog stands beside her looking utterly unbothered by the whole situation. The contrast between the looming, clawed predator and the dog's blissful obliviousness captures everything delightful about this series in a single image. At $12.99 from Kodansha USA, this 2019 volume is a charming pick for fans of slice-of-life comedy with a wonderfully chaotic edge.
