Yuki Wu Launches Fumime-san's Lodger Volume 1
Exciting news for manga fans today! The first volume of Yuki Wu's latest work, Fumime-san's Lodger, has officially been released by Hakusensha on April 3rd. If you are a fan of classic shojo, you probably already know Yuki Wu from the very popular Golden Corda series. This new manga is already creating a bit of buzz among readers who enjoy a good mix of school life and romance.
The story follows a very determined and hardworking high school girl named Megumi Fumime. She lives in a house with her great-grandmother and decided to renovate it to bring in some extra income. Her original plan was to recruit some female lodgers so they could have a nice, quiet living arrangement. However, things did not go as planned at all! Instead of the girls she expected, five male high school students showed up to live there. It is a classic romantic comedy setup where Megumi has to manage living with five handsome guys, each having their own unique quirks and personalities.
Collaborations and Special Offers for Fans
Currently, Fumime-san's Lodger is being serialized in LaLaDX, which is a well-known magazine from Hakusensha. To celebrate the launch of the first volume, there are some really cool purchase benefits available for those who buy the physical copy. In fact, in the May issue of LaLaDX that also went on sale today, the series actually features on the cover. This is a big deal for a new series and shows how much the publishers believe in it.
There is also a special collaboration happening between the May issue of the magazine and this first volume. They are giving away a special A4 clear file to everyone who applies. But do keep in mind that this offer is only for people who buy the paper version. Sadly, the electronic or digital versions do not have the application tickets included. You have until June 4th to send in your application, so don't miss out if you are a collector. Many readers agree that Fumime-san's Lodger is definitely worth checking out for its refreshing take on the reverse harem genre.
