Père & Fils #5

The warmth between a father and his little boy practically radiates off this cover — a gentle, watercolor-soft illustration by Mi Tagawa showing a blond father gazing down with a quiet smile at his bright-eyed, dark-haired toddler, whose delighted grin is absolutely irresistible. Volume 5 of this Ki-oon seinen series continues to capture the tender, everyday magic of parenthood with a visual style that feels as intimate as a family photo album. If heartfelt slice-of-life manga is your thing, this 2016 French edition is a lovely addition to the shelf.
