鬼人幻燈抄 [Kijin Gentōshō] #7

Volume 7 of Kijin Gentōshō arrives at the climactic final chapter of its Meiji arc, promising themes of tragedy and salvation captured in the haunting tagline "Is farewell all there is to life?" The cover sets a quietly melancholic tone, showing a lone figure seated with his back to us on a wooden veranda, gazing out at a moonlit garden in full bloom beneath a deep night sky. By Nakanishi Motoo and published by Futabasha, this installment also carries an exciting note for anime fans — a TV anime adaptation is announced for broadcast that same summer.
