ニセコイ [Nisekoi] #1

The opening volume of Naoshi Komi's Nisekoi sets the tone perfectly, its cover presenting a confident young man flanked by two striking schoolgirls — one dark-haired and composed, the other blonde with a fiery red ribbon — all three in matching uniforms that hint at shared school-life tension. Published by Shueisha under the Jump Comics imprint, this first chapter (subtitled ヤクソク — "Promise") promises exactly the kind of romantic entanglement that made the series a Weekly Shōnen Jump staple. It's a charming, lively start to a story clearly built around complicated relationships and the question of who, exactly, that promise was made with.
