花のち晴れ 〜花男 Next Season〜 [Hana Nochi Hare - Hanadan Next Season] #1

The opening volume of Hana Nochi Hare — the eagerly anticipated follow-up to Hana Yori Dango — arrives with a cover that immediately establishes its ensemble energy: six uniformed students crowd the frame, centered on a bright-eyed girl in a yellow jacket with a red ribbon, surrounded by a confident group of school peers in purple blazers, including a pink-haired girl flashing a peace sign and several sharp-looking young men. By manga artist Kamio Yoko, this Jump Comics+ release carries the warmth and social drama the series is known for right from its very first page.
