繭、纏う [Mayu, Matou] #4

Two young women share an intimate, charged moment on this quietly arresting cover — their faces drawn close together in what reads as a deeply tender, emotionally weighty encounter, rendered in a rich, darkly elegant palette of black and deep brown. Kadokawa's Mayu, Matou continues with volume 4, and creator Haramomoiko brings the same restrained intensity to the cover art that defines this girls'-love series. If the cover is any indication, the emotional stakes between these two characters remain as close and breath-holding as ever.
