キミと僕の最後の戦場、あるいは世界が始まる聖戦 [Kimi to Boku no Saigo no Senjō, Arui wa Sekai ga Hajimaru Seisen] #2

Volume 2 of this striking manga series from Hakusensha opens with a cover that puts two figures center stage — a wild-haired young man crackling with electric blue energy faces off against a silver-haired figure in dark attire, the tension between them practically humming off the page. The deep, moody palette of blacks and blues gives the composition a cinematic weight that suits a title whose full name translates roughly to Our Last Battlefield, or the Holy War That Begins the World. With art direction by okama and character designs credited to 猫鍋蒼, this volume looks every bit as charged as its ambitious premise promises.
