The Princess of Convenient Plot Devices #1

The opening volume of The Princess of Convenient Plot Devices arrives with a cover that sets the tone beautifully — a silver-haired princess in a teal gown gazes out with striking blue eyes, while a dark-haired swordsman looms protectively (or perhaps ominously) behind her, blade at the ready. The art, adapted by Kazusa Yoneda from Mamecyoro's original story with character designs by Mitsuya Fuji, crackles with that signature manga tension between elegance and danger. If you're drawn to fantasy series that blend court intrigue with sharp-edged adventure, this 2023 Yen Press release looks like a very promising place to start.
