La servante de l'empereur #2

The second volume of La Servante de l'Empereur arrives from Ki-oon shōjo with a cover that is as lush as it is quietly charged — a tall, dark-haired figure in imperial robes leans protectively over a young woman adorned with floral hair ornaments, both surrounded by cascading wisteria and soft petals. Artist Haruki Yoshimura renders the pair with delicate expressiveness, the young woman's wide violet eyes and the held fan between them hinting at a relationship full of unspoken tension. Based on Ichiha Hiragi's original work, with script adaptation by Aya Shouoto, this 2025 release promises the kind of romantic historical drama that lingers long after the final page.
