きんいろモザイク [Kiniro Mosaic] #2

Three schoolgirls leap across the cover of this second volume — a dark-haired girl with eyes happily closed, a bright blonde with vivid blue eyes, and a taller brunette caught mid-jump above them — their blue uniforms and colorful umbrellas giving the whole image a breezy, carefree charm. Creator Hara Yui's soft, delicate linework and pastel palette perfectly capture the lighthearted spirit that has made Kiniro Mosaic such an endearing slice-of-life series. If the cheerful energy on display here is any indication, this volume is a genuinely warm read.
