おとなりに銀河 [Otonari ni Ginga] #2

The cover of this second volume sets a quietly intimate tone: a dark-haired young man lies prone on the floor while a bright-eyed girl with long auburn hair leans toward him, clutching a small red flower and flashing an infectious grin. Creator 雨隠ギド frames the pair across a threshold that feels both literal and emotional, hinting at the push-and-pull of two neighbors navigating an uncertain connection. Soft pastels and scattered petals give the whole image a gentle warmth that makes this slice-of-life series from Kōdansha's good! Afternoon line genuinely hard to put down.
