Orange Chocolat #2

The second volume of Nanpei Yamada's Orange Chocolat arrives with a striking cover that draws you in immediately — a young woman in elegant black, her elaborate upswept hair adorned with cascading violet wisteria blossoms, gazes out with wide, expressive eyes against a vivid orange background. The combination of traditional floral styling and dramatic fashion gives this 2012 Tonkam release a wonderfully theatrical atmosphere. If you enjoyed the first volume, this gorgeous presentation promises more of the series' distinctive blend of beauty and drama.
