ディスコミュニケーション [Discommunication] #7

Volume 7 of Ueshiba Riichi's Discommunication arrives in this new-edition (新装版) release from Kōdansha's Afternoon KC DX line, subtitled 精霊編 — the "Spirit Chapter." The cover brings together three young characters rendered in Ueshiba's clean, expressive line work: a girl in the foreground holding a pale, fox-like spirit mask, a shorter girl in a red-and-white outfit giving a salute, and a boy in the background mid-high-five against a busy blue collage of manga panels. It's a warm, slightly offbeat image that captures the series' blend of everyday school life and something quietly uncanny lurking just beneath the surface.
