The new series ``Azuki and Nankin'' by Minamiko Kunimi started in the May issue of Monthly Comic Beam (KADOKAWA), released today, April 11th.
"Azuki and Nankin" is a human drama for everyone who feels "difficult to live." The first episode depicts the events that occur when Itaru Fuyuno (Itaru), who has decided to attend an art university in Tokyo, attends his aunt's funeral. Itaru is worried about her cousin Azusa, who is her aunt's daughter and lives with her aunt in an apartment in Tokyo, so she talks to her. However, Azusa is repulsed by Itaru's words, ``I think it must have been difficult...'' and doesn't seem to like the situation where her relatives are discussing their future while ignoring Azusa's thoughts... Itaru sees Azusa and suggests that he live in the apartment with her.
In addition, this issue includes ``Help☆Atomosu'' by Nikumanko, which depicts the aftermath of an idol who goes up in flames and becomes an ordinary person, as part of the 5th installment of ``The 30th × 30 STORIES 30th Anniversary Special One-shot Project'', and ``Iejimai'' by Umi Sora, who is appearing for the first time in Comic Beam.
