あせとせっけん [Ase to Sekken] #8

Volume 8 of Yamada Kintetsu's Ase to Sekken arrives with a sun-soaked summer cover, featuring the series' lead duo in a playful, breezy beach moment — he's bare-chested and grinning with a colorful swim ring in hand, while she laughs beside him, beach bag in tow. The warm, lighthearted energy between the two captures exactly the sweet, slow-burn charm that has made this romantic series such a satisfying read. Published under Kōdansha's Morning KC imprint, this volume is a lovely addition to one of slice-of-life romance manga's most endearing runs.
