異世界失格 [Isekai Shikkaku] #2

A pale, hollow-eyed young man in a dark kimono holds an open book against a stark backdrop of maps and muted landscapes — a quietly striking image that sets the melancholic, literary tone of this series perfectly. Volume 2 of Isekai Shikkaku continues the collaboration between story writer Hiroshi Noda and artist Takahiro Wakamatsu, published by Shogakukan. If the brooding atmosphere of the cover is any indication, this is isekai manga with a distinctly introspective edge.
