Manga Anthology based on the anime "Fushigi no Umi no Nadia".

2009 marks the 50th anniversary of the founding of Gekiga Koubou, a landmark event that sparked a gekiga boom in the rental manga industry of the time and laid the foundation for the enduring popularity of youth manga and adult manga that continues to this day. To mark this occasion, our company is reissuing the first issues of *Kage* and *Machi*—pivotal publications that served as cornerstones for the development of gekiga and drove the short-story magazine boom—in a two-volume set. These reissues faithfully replicate the original binding, color schemes, and book design as closely as possible. Each set includes an explanatory booklet featuring testimonials from individuals involved at the time, bringing these works to contemporary readers. This long-awaited, precious reprint offers both general readers and researchers a chance to discover the roots of modern manga. (Source: Shogakukan, translated)

“Where did you go and leave a person like Lord Hendrick behind, you idiot George!” Hendrick, heir to a frontier marquisate, is the flawless, universally admired “perfect” young lord. The only ones who know his true self are his twin retainers, Roslyn and George, who were raised with him like siblings from childhood. Hendrick’s swordsmanship earns him a direct invitation from Queen Joanna of the Kingdom of Merrill to serve as her personal knight, but only male attendants are allowed to accompany him—so only the older twin, George, is chosen. Roslyn forces herself to accept that their days as an inseparable trio are over. Then, on the very day Hendrick is to take up his post, George disappears, leaving behind only a letter. Roslyn takes George’s place, disguising herself as him and serving as Hendrick’s attendant… but what awaits this cross‑dressing retainer and the master whose overflowing feelings won’t be stopped? https://ebookjapan.yahoo.co.jp/books/955797/
