花とみつばち [Hana to Mitsubachi] #4

Volume 4 of Moyoco Anno's Hana to Mitsubachi (Flower and Bee) arrives in this new-edition Kōdansha release, and the cover sets the mood perfectly — a young man in a white shirt finds himself caught between two sharp-eyed young women, each resting a hand on him with an air of cool, confident possession. The tension simmering across all three faces promises the kind of romantic rivalry and social maneuvering that makes this series such a compelling read.
