Kaguya-sama: Love Is War

Aka Akasaka's romantic-comedy manga, published in English by Viz from 2018 to 2024, turns the classic battle of wits into a high-stakes war of love. The series follows two fiercely proud student council members, each convinced that confessing feelings first means losing, as they scheme to force the other to surrender. With Akasaka writing and illustrating, the 28-issue run masterfully balances sharp psychological warfare with genuine, tender character growth, redefining the will-they-won't-they formula for a modern audience.
