Re/member #17

Volume 17 of Ki-oon's Re/member arrives with a cover that puts two young characters — a boy and a girl, both wide-eyed and screaming — in a moment of raw, urgent panic, their dark clothing and desperate expressions radiating tension against a stark white background. Artist Katsutoshi Murase frames the pair mid-motion, as though they're fleeing or reacting to something just out of frame, pulling you immediately into the series' signature atmosphere of fear and survival. If you've been following this seinen thriller, 2019's seventeenth volume promises more of the breathless intensity the series has built its reputation on.
