クオーツの王国 [Quartz no Ōkoku] #3

Volume 3 of A Kingdom of Quartz arrives with a cover that perfectly captures the series' tension — a pale-haired young woman with striking golden eyes grips a blood-speckled blade, her expression hovering somewhere between resolve and unease against a soft violet and gold-starred background. Creator Bomhat's delicate linework gives the scene an almost ethereal fragility that makes the crimson flecks on her hands and the sword all the more striking. Translated by M. Fulcrum and published by Kōdansha in 2024, this third volume promises that the story's blend of beauty and danger is very much still unfolding.
