死神坊ちゃんと黒メイド [Shinigami Bocchan to Kuro Maid] #2

A young man in a sharp black coat and top hat shares a close, almost-dance embrace with a blonde maid dressed in elegant black, her blue eyes meeting his as vivid blue butterflies drift around them — it's a cover that captures the bittersweet tension at the heart of this series perfectly. Volume 2 of The Duke of Death and His Maid continues the story of this striking, atmospheric duo, published by Shogakukan under the Shonen Sunday Comics Special label. Inoue Koharu's stylish linework gives the pair a gothic-romantic flair that makes it easy to see why this series earned its devoted following.
