天地創造デザイン部 [Tenchi Sōzō Dezain-bu] #5

A burst of yellow and playful energy defines this fifth volume of Tenchi Sōzō Dezain-bu (What a Strange Animal!), with a cheerful young woman in a red jumpsuit leaping exuberantly amid a flurry of colorful birds, while an older bespectacled gentleman in a kimono consults what appears to be a reference book nearby. Scattered Easter eggs and a nest full of hatchlings complete the lively scene, hinting at the series' signature blend of creature design and lighthearted comedy. If you've been following this charming manga about the imaginative business of creating animals, volume five looks to be another delightfully inventive chapter.
