楠木さんは高校デビューに失敗している [Kusunoki-san wa Kōkō Debut ni Shippai Shite Iru] #2

Two high school girls share the spotlight on this charming cover — a pink-haired girl with wide, expressive eyes pressed close to a dark-haired companion whose cool, knowing gaze contrasts perfectly with her friend's flustered energy. The subtitle's English tagline, "She is (not) a cool girl (in high school)," sets up the series' central tension with a wink, and Miitsuki's art captures that mix of social anxiety and warmth that makes school-life manga so endearing. Volume 2 from Ichijinsha promises more of the awkward, sweet dynamics that make Kusunoki-san's high school reinvention such a relatable ride.
