Angel Voice #29

Volume 29 of Takao Koyano's *Angel Voice* brings the intensity of this beloved soccer manga to a sharp close-up, the cover dominated by a steely-eyed young player with pink-tinged hair whose focused, almost defiant expression leaves little doubt that the stakes on the pitch are high. Published in France by Kana/Dargaud in 2015, this French-language edition makes the series accessible to a whole new readership. If you've been following this long-running sports drama, volume 29 is another compelling chapter in a series that takes both its football and its characters seriously.
