桜姫華伝 [Sakura Hime Kaden] #1

A young woman in flowing pink robes clutches a decorative fan amid drifting cherry blossoms on this enchanting first volume of Sakura Hime Kaden, published by Shueisha. Her wide, expressive eyes and windswept golden hair give the cover an ethereal, fairy-tale quality perfectly suited to a story whose title evokes a legendary cherry blossom princess. It's a beautifully composed introduction to what promises to be a lushly romantic shojo series.
