聲の形 [Koe no Katachi] #3

Two teenagers — a boy in a school uniform with a loosened tie and a girl in a sailor-style school outfit adjusting her hearing aid — walk separately along a quiet urban train platform, the mood tender and quietly melancholic. Yoshitoki Ōima's A Silent Voice Vol. 3 captures that distinctive atmosphere of emotional distance and tentative connection that makes this series so affecting. Kōdansha's Shōnen Magazine Comics edition presents the story with the same understated, character-focused sensitivity visible right here on the cover.
