Dark Goddess #3

Volume 3 of Dark Goddess arrives from Pika Édition with a cover that draws you in immediately — two young women share an intimate, almost dreamlike moment, one cradling the other while a vivid bouquet of red flowers blooms between them, hinting at both tenderness and tension. The soft, elegant linework is the work of artist Hirokazu Ochiai, bringing writer Toru Fujisawa's world to life with a delicate intensity that suits the series' mood perfectly. If this 2018 French release is your entry point into the series, that cover alone makes a compelling case for picking it up.
