Arata: The Legend #22

Volume 22 of Yuu Watase's Arata: The Legend arrives with a cover that crackles with tension — a pink-haired figure looms above, bound with rope and flanked by ornate golden armor, while a dark-haired young woman in a torn, bloodstained white garment lies vulnerable below amid a vivid, chaotic background. Watase's linework is as precise and expressive as ever, pulling these two contrasting figures together in a composition that feels both dramatic and deeply personal. If you've been following this fantasy series, volume 22 looks like a compelling next chapter.
