先輩はおとこのこ [Senpai wa Otokonoko] #4

Two school-uniformed figures anchor this quietly tender cover — a bright-eyed girl with flowing blonde hair leaning forward with a wave in the foreground, and a more reserved dark-haired student standing calmly behind her, the contrast between their energies doing a lot of quiet storytelling on its own. The subtitle "this is him (can't be anyone else)" hints at the heartfelt character dynamics at the core of Senpai wa Otokonoko. Volume 4 from Ichijinsha continues Pom's gentle, warmly observed series for anyone who loves school stories with real emotional nuance.
