踏んだり、蹴ったり、愛したり [Fundari, Kettari, Aishitari] #4

Volume 4 of Fundari, Kettari, Aishitari pulls readers in with a cover that crackles with romantic tension — a dark-haired man leans in close to a golden-blonde woman in a deep red dress, their faces nearly touching in an unmistakably charged moment. Creator 壱屋すみ (Sumi Ichiya) frames the pair against a moody purple and gold-splashed background that perfectly matches the push-and-pull energy the title itself suggests. If the story delivers even half the electricity of this cover, fans of shojo romance are in for a compelling read.
