どうせ、恋してしまうんだ。[Dōse, Koishite Shimaunda] #4

Volume 4 of this shojo romance from Kodansha presents a striking close-up of a bespectacled young man with warm auburn hair, his expression caught somewhere between vulnerability and quiet resolve against a wash of soft blues and splashing water. Creator 溝井春香 brings a dreamy, fluid energy to the cover that perfectly captures the bittersweet tension of falling for someone whether you mean to or not. A lovely addition to this understated, heartfelt series.
