Welcome back, Alice

In this manga series from Cross Cult, Yūto's carefully ordered world is upended when his childhood friend Yui returns as a confident and provocative young woman, now going by the name Alice. Written and illustrated by Shuzo Oshimi, the seven-issue run from 2023 to 2024 explores the tangled emotions of love, desire, and identity among a group of former friends navigating the messy transition into adulthood. Oshimi's signature psychological depth and unsettling character dynamics make this a compelling addition to his body of work.
