Rosen Blood ―背徳の冥館 [Rosen Blood ― Haitoku no Meikan] #5

Volume 5 of Rosen Blood arrives with a cover that's equal parts ethereal and unsettling — a young woman with long blonde hair and striking violet eyes gazes out from beneath drifting white petals, a dark gemstone choker at her throat and an ornate golden border framing it all. The delicate, painterly detail of creator 石橋カナル's art gives the scene a gothic romance atmosphere perfectly suited to the series' shadowy Victorian sensibilities. Published by Akita Shoten in 2022, this volume continues one of shojo manga's more atmospheric ongoing series.
