Yukiaki Kurando & WOOMA Launch New Manga 'Kiss Me With Your Face'

Writer Yukiaki Kurando and artist WOOMA are set to debut a new manga titled Kimi no Kao de Boku ni Kiss shite (Kiss Me With Your Face). The series will begin serialization in the July issue of Akita Shoten's Bessatsu Shōnen Champion magazine, which is scheduled to ship on June 15.

The manga's narrative unfolds within a school structured by a strict hierarchy. It focuses on the unexpected relationship that develops between Shikima, a top-ranked A-class student, and Azuki, a student from the lowest E-rank, following a specific incident.

Yukiaki Kurando is known for his work on suspense manga, including Then Shall I Kill in Your Stead?, which he created with artist Sōsō Sakakibara. That series ran in Akita Shoten's Bessatsu Young Champion from November 2018 and concluded recently with an epilogue. Kurando also co-created the Dolly Kill Kill manga with Yūsuke Nomura, published by Kodansha USA Publishing.
