メイプル戦記 [Maple Senki] #1

Published under Hakusensha's 花とゆめCOMICS imprint, this first volume of Izumi Kawahara's Maple Senki opens with a striking cover: a determined young woman in a green-and-white "Maples 666" baseball uniform mid-swing, bat raised, her expression all focus and fire. The newsprint-style background adds a lively, energetic texture that perfectly sets the tone for a sports manga with personality to spare.
