I Think I Turned My Childhood Friend into a Girl #5

Azusa Banjo's charming gender-swap romantic comedy returns for its fifth volume, and the cover perfectly captures the series' warm, flustered energy — a brown-haired boy with blue eyes holds a hair dryer while a dark-haired girl in a pink hood cuddles close against him, both wearing wonderfully expressive, rosy-cheeked faces. The soft pastel palette and cozy atmosphere make it instantly clear this series has a knack for turning everyday moments between these two into something genuinely sweet. If you've been following their complicated, adorable dynamic, volume 5 looks like a delightful continuation of everything that makes this series so endearing.
