海月姫 [Kuragehime] #14

Volume 14 of Akiko Higashimura's beloved Kuragehime ("Princess Jellyfish") arrives in a burst of candy-pink glamour, with the wide-eyed heroine front and center in an elaborate lolita-style ballgown and crown, flanked by two sharply dressed young men in military-style uniforms — one dark-haired and brooding, one fair-haired and cool. The trio's dynamic practically leaps off the cover, equal parts fairy tale and comic tension. Fans of Higashimura's warmhearted, fashion-forward storytelling will find this installment every bit as charming as the volumes before it.
