高嶺と花 [Takane to Hana] #6

Volume 6 of Takane to Hana showcases a confident, bright-eyed young woman in a blue sailor school uniform with a bold red bow, her short pink hair and playful smirk radiating charm and personality. Surrounding her are small chibi-style vignettes of assorted characters, hinting at the lively ensemble cast at the heart of this shojo series published by Hakusensha under the Hana to Yume imprint. Creator 師走ゆき (Yuki Shiwasu) keeps the visual energy breezy and fun — a great snapshot of why this romantic comedy has earned its devoted readership.
