ホリミヤ [Horimiya] #1

Two high schoolers take center stage on this clean, understated cover — a sharp-looking young man in a dark blazer with a red tie and a bright, laughing girl in her school uniform, their contrasting energy immediately hinting at an engaging dynamic between them. Published by Square Enix, this first volume of Horimiya pairs the art of HERO with the story by Daisuke Hagiwara for what promises to be a warmly character-driven romantic slice-of-life series. It's the kind of cover that draws you in quietly, making you curious about the two people standing just close enough to suggest there's plenty more to their story.
