Le Pacte des Yôkai #11

The cover of this eleventh volume sets a quietly contemplative mood — a silver-haired boy rests languidly against a library shelf packed with colorful books, while a small ghostly figure peeks out from among the spines behind him. Yuki Midorikawa's gentle linework gives the scene a dreamy, unhurried warmth that perfectly captures the series' delicate balance between the everyday and the supernatural. Published by Éditions Delcourt in 2011, this volume continues one of manga's most tender explorations of the bond between humans and yōkai.
