Futari Escape #4

Shouichi Taguchi's Futari Escape returns with a fourth volume that radiates quiet warmth — the cover shows two young women sitting cross-legged on a bare wooden floor, each holding a canned drink, surrounded by unpacked moving boxes in a softly lit apartment. The pale blue atmosphere and gentle smiles exchanged between the curly light-haired girl and her dark-haired companion give the whole scene an understated, lived-in tenderness. At $12.99, this 2023 release looks like the perfect companion for anyone who enjoys slice-of-life manga with a cozy, intimate heart.
