うるわしの宵の月 [Uruwashi no Yoi no Tsuki] #9

A warm orange backdrop sets the mood for this ninth volume of やまもり三香's (Yamamori Mika's) beloved shōjo series, published under Kōdansha's Dessert imprint. The cover brings together the two leads — a silver-haired young man with green eyes and a relaxed, knowing smile alongside a bright-eyed dark-haired girl with striking violet eyes and a cheerful daisy-print outfit — both posed in that easy, chin-in-hand closeness that speaks to a relationship grown comfortable and tender. Fans of slow-burn romance will find this volume's cover art every bit as quietly charming as the series itself.
