暗殺教室 [Ansatsu Kyōshitsu / Assassination Classroom] #19

Volume 19 of Yusei Matsui's Assassination Classroom makes an immediate impression with one of the series' most striking covers — an almost entirely black field broken only by two glowing white eyes staring out from the darkness, unmistakably evoking the series' tentacled teacher, Koro-sensei. It's a minimalist masterstroke that speaks volumes through near-total absence, letting that eerie, luminous gaze do all the work. Published by Shueisha under the Jump Comics imprint, this volume carries the subtitle 登校の時間 ("Time to Attend School"), which adds a quietly ominous charge to an already arresting image.
