Birdcage Castle #3

Toutarou Minami's Birdcage Castle continues with this third volume from Bamboo Édition, its cover rendered in a striking monochrome palette punctuated by a vivid teal peacock standing proudly in the foreground — a creature whose regal presence mirrors the series' atmosphere of gilded captivity. Behind the bird, a pale, long-haired figure leans against what appear to be vertical bars, their expression distant and quietly melancholic. It's a beautifully composed image that captures the series' tension between elegance and confinement perfectly.
