忍者と極道 [Ninja to Gokudō] #6

Volume 6 of Kōdansha's Ninja to Gokudō keeps its wild energy front and center, with a long-haired blonde woman in a sailor-style school uniform striking a dramatically expressive pose alongside a large rat — a combination that perfectly captures the series' gleefully offbeat sensibility. Creator 近藤信輔 (Kondō Shinsuke) is credited on the cover, and his bold, expressive linework makes every chaotic element pop against the vivid pink background. Fans of the series who've made it this far know to expect the unexpected, and this cover delivers exactly that promise.
