ユーベルブラット [Übel Blatt] #23

Volume 23 of Übel Blatt arrives with a striking cover showing a battle-worn, elf-eared warrior — torn armor, red eyes blazing, blood on their cheek — standing amid swirling feathers and embers that suggest a confrontation of serious consequence. The sheer intensity on that face, framed against a cold burst of white and deep red, makes it clear the story has reached a point of real weight. Fans of Etorouji Shiono's dark fantasy series will find this installment carries the brooding, unrelenting atmosphere the series does so well.
