Kiss Me at the Stroke of Midnight #12

The twelfth volume of Rin Mikimoto's beloved shojo series wraps the couple in an atmosphere of pure romance — the cover shows a young woman wearing a delicate floral crown gazing up warmly at a tall, gentle young man leaning close to her, the whole scene bathed in soft sparkles and bridal-white tones. It's an intimate, tender image that perfectly captures the dreamy, fairy-tale mood the series has cultivated throughout its run. A lovely addition to any shojo collection, this 2022 Kodansha USA release carries that unmistakable feeling of a love story reaching something meaningful.
