黒か白か [Kuro ka Shiro ka] #7

Volume 7 of Sachimo's Black or White continues this intimate entertainment-industry romance with a cover that says everything without a word — two young men in white shirts are shown in a close, tender embrace, one resting against the other in a moment of quiet vulnerability. The soft monochromatic palette and the Japanese text ("We only wanted to love each other in an ordinary way—") perfectly capture the series' recurring tension between public personas and private longing. Published by Kadokawa under the Asuka Comics CL-DX imprint, this volume promises more of the heartfelt, nuanced storytelling that has made Sachimo's work so compelling.
