たとえとどかぬ糸だとしても [Tatoe Todokanu Ito da to shite mo] #3

The cover of this third volume says everything with quiet eloquence — two young women share a close, tender embrace, one cradling the other's head against her shoulder in a moment of soft vulnerability. Creator tMnR's art renders the scene in delicate, muted tones that perfectly suit a series whose title translates roughly as "Even If This Thread Cannot Reach You" — a phrase that captures the bittersweet longing at the heart of this girls'-love story from Ichijinsha. The overlaid text, promising a tale of love that refuses to find its ending while dreaming of the day it becomes something real, makes this volume an emotionally rich read for fans of heartfelt yuri manga.
