薬屋のひとりごと [Kusuriya no Hitorigoto] #6

The sixth volume of Kusuriya no Hitorigoto presents a striking cover featuring Maomao in elegant crimson and white robes, her dark hair adorned with red floral ornaments as she holds a knife with quiet, composed intent. That combination of delicate beauty and sharp-edged purpose captures the series' distinctive appeal perfectly — a young apothecary who is far more resourceful than her surroundings expect. A great addition to this beloved historical-mystery manga from Square Enix.
