ハコヅメ ～交番女子の逆襲～ [Hakozume: Koban Joshi no Gyakushuu] #4

Four young women in police uniforms share a relaxed, cheerful meal together on this volume's cover — chopsticks raised, a steaming bowl of ramen at the center, and one officer comically juggling noodles mid-air. It's a warm, slice-of-life snapshot that captures the camaraderie at the heart of Hakozume: Koban Joshi no Gyakushuu, the beloved workplace comedy following women on the beat at a neighborhood police box. Volume 4 from Kōdansha promises more of that perfect balance between everyday humor and the genuine bonds of officers just trying to get through the shift — ideally with lunch intact.
