The Duke of Death and His Maid #15

Volume 15 of Inoue's charming gothic romance arrives with a cover that perfectly captures the series' blend of tender unease — the bandage-wrapped young woman in a dark hooded robe, cross pendant at her chest, stands close beside the red-eyed Duke in his burgundy suit, their hands quietly intertwined beneath a moonlit sky filled with bats and bare branches. There's real warmth in the way these two figures lean into each other despite the forbidding atmosphere surrounding them. If you've been following this series, this 2024 volume from Seven Seas Entertainment looks like a rewarding continuation of one of manga's most atmospheric love stories.
