To Love Ru #1-2
In "Trouble 1: The Girl Who Came from the Sky," Rito and Lala face the Test of Courage alongside other couples, only to find most fleeing in fear—especially when Saruyama abandons his partner, Haruna. Stuck together in the maze, Rito finds Haruna hiding, and though Lala finds the monsters amusing, she unleashes a holographic scare machine that sends everyone running—leaving just the trio to reach the finish line. As they stand together, Rito can't help but wonder how three people could possibly be a "fated couple." Written by Saki Hasemi, Kentaro Yabuki handles both art and inks, with lettering by Paweł Szczęszek and additional writing by J. P. Sullivan and Alex Gaspard. The cover, by Kentaro Yabuki and Nicky Lim, captures the moment with bold, expressive flair.
