ウチの使い魔がすみません [Uchi no Tsukaima ga Sumimasen] #5

Volume 5 of Sorry for My Familiar delivers another burst of chaotic charm, with the cover showing a wide-eyed, pink-haired girl gleefully swinging on a rope above a broad-shouldered, exasperated-looking man in a brown coat who seems to be bracing for whatever trouble she's dragging along — a basket of colorful creatures tumbling nearby completes the mayhem. The dynamic between the two captures the series' running tension between the long-suffering and the wonderfully unruly. Published by Kōdansha, this volume looks like exactly the kind of supernatural comedy that rewards readers who enjoy their fantasy with a healthy dose of comedic catastrophe.
