How Not to Summon a Demon Lord #1

The opening volume of this 2018 Seven Seas Entertainment manga adaptation kicks off with a striking cover by artist Naoto Fukuda, featuring a pointy-eared elven girl in a green outfit — her wrists bound by a gleaming chain collar — rendered in vivid, eye-catching style against a soft decorative background. Story by Yukia Murasaki with character designs by Takahiro Tsurusaki round out a strong creative team bringing this isekai fantasy to life. At $12.99, it's an inviting entry point into a world where demon lords and magical summonings set the stage for plenty of otherworldly adventure.
