紫雲寺家の子供たち [Shiunji-ke no Kodomo-tachi] #4

A pink-jacketed, pink-haired girl in a sailor-style school uniform dominates this cheerful volume 4 cover, her expression caught somewhere between surprise and exasperation against a playful polka-dot backdrop. The Children of the Shiunji Family continues to deliver its blend of youthful energy and heartfelt family dynamics, and this installment from Hakusensha's Young Animal Comics line looks every bit as lively as its predecessors. If the cover's bright palette and expressive character work are any indication, there's plenty of warmth and drama still unfolding within the Shiunji household.
