あらくさ忍法帖 [Arakusa Ninpouchou] #1

Volume 1 of Arakusa Ninpouchou opens with a confident, playful kunoichi front and center — clad in a red ninja outfit with a flowing white scarf, a golden headband, and thigh-high stockings, she rests her chin on one hand with a sly, knowing smile. Published by Hakusensha under the Young Animal Comics imprint, this series by Haruki promises a ninja story with a distinctly flirtatious edge. If the cover's mood is any indication, the mix of action and charm here is going to be a lot of fun.
