Ao Haru Ride #13

Volume 13 of Io Sakisaka's beloved shojo series fills its cover with a tender, close-up moment between two figures — a brown-haired boy in a striped tie and a dark-haired girl, their faces drawing near in an atmosphere of quiet intimacy. The airy, soft palette and the tagline "The scent of air after rain… In the light around us, I felt your heartbeat" perfectly capture the series' signature blend of longing and warmth. For fans who have followed every emotional beat of this story, this 2020 volume promises all the heartfelt nuance that makes *Ao Haru Ride* so enduring.
