Happy Kanako’s Killer Life #5

Kanako takes center stage on this volume 5 cover, mouth wide open in a wonderfully exasperated wail while an assortment of adorable animals — including a raccoon, a bird, and several others — cheerfully pile on around her against a burst of sunny yellow and pink rays. Toshiya Wakabayashi's story and art bring an irresistible charm to this slice-of-life comedy series, and the cover perfectly captures its signature blend of cute chaos and comedic despair. If you're following Kanako's hilariously overwhelming adventures, this 2022 volume from Seven Seas Entertainment is a delightful addition to the series.
