目隠しの国 [Mekakushi No Kuni] #1

The opening volume of Mekakushi no Kuni arrives with a cover that perfectly captures the series' gentle, romantic tone — a bright-eyed young woman in a soft orange top holds a vivid red flower, pink ribbons swirling around her as petals drift through the air. Creator Sakura Tsukuba's art brings an immediately warm and expressive quality to the character, making this first volume from Hakusensha feel like a welcoming invitation into something tender and heartfelt. A lovely starting point for fans of shojo manga with a dreamy, delicate aesthetic.
