好きな子がめがねを忘れた [Suki na Ko ga Megane o Wasureta] #3

Two teenagers share a quiet, close moment on what appears to be a school bench at dusk — a boy in a dark puffer jacket leaning toward a soft-featured girl with warm auburn hair, both caught in that charged, almost-but-not-quite nearness that defines this gentle romance. Suki na Ko ga Megane o Wasureta ("The Girl I Like Forgot Her Glasses") continues its sweet, understated story of proximity and longing in this third volume from Square Enix. The cover's muted evening palette and the characters' tender, uncertain expressions perfectly capture the series' signature mix of everyday shyness and slow-burning affection.
