Missions of Love #6

Missions of Love Volume 6 from Kodansha USA brings another chapter of Ema Toyama's romantic rivalry manga, and the cover sets the mood perfectly — a dark-haired young man flanked by two determined girls in school uniforms, one auburn-haired and one with lavender locks, all three caught in a moment of charged tension against a bright blue backdrop. The tagline hints at the stakes: a secret cell phone novelist squaring off against the most popular boy in school in a mission of love for absolute servitude. It's a fun, energetic shojo setup that fans of school romance and playful power struggles will find hard to resist.
