世界の終わりに柴犬と [Sekai no Owari ni Shiba Inu to] #4

A cheerful Shiba Inu takes center stage on this cover, tongue out and full of irrepressible energy, nestled close to a young girl in a school uniform amid a burst of bright sunflowers — the warmth of the image making it hard not to smile. Sekai no Owari ni Shiba Inu to (At the End of the World with a Shiba Inu) continues its signature blend of companionship and atmosphere in this fourth volume from Kadokawa, with creator 石原雄 (Ishihara Yu) delivering a cover that balances sweetness with just a hint of the ruined world glimpsed in the background. If you've been following this series, volume four promises more of the heartfelt human-and-dog bond that makes it so quietly compelling.
