Sakura Taisen #5

Jun 2007 · Tokyopop · 9.99 USD; 12.50 CAD
“A Date In Asakusa”

In "A Date In Asakusa," Ogami and Iris share a night at the movies, but when a monster film stirs long-buried memories, Iris’s past in France surfaces—unintentionally triggering her psychic abilities and shaking the theater to its core. Written by Ohji Hiroi, Yuko Fukami, and Lillian Diaz-Przybyl, and illustrated by Ikku Masa with inks by Star Print Brokers, this 2007 Tokyopop issue captures a quiet moment that spirals into something far more intense. The cover, a collaboration between Ikku Masa and James Lee, sets the tone with a vivid, emotional scene.
