My Dress-Up Darling Vol. 10

My Dress-Up Darling Vol. 10. A loner boy and a flashy girl find common ground via cosplay in this sweet and spicy rom-com!

Upon meeting up with Amane-san and his friends at a cosplay event, Marin and Wakana learn about a group cosplay shoot they’re putting together for Coffin, a horror game. Unfortunately, the older cosplayers have life commitments that get in the way of hitting the studio for their appointment!

Cue Marin and her ever proactive mind! She rings up a certain someone to see if they’d be game for an impromptu cosplay collaboration, but it’s going to be a hard sell! When more bodies are needed, will Wakana have to pitch in to make up the numbers?!

Title Notes:

SECOND SEASON OF THE ANIME ANNOUNCED: The second season of the My Dress-Up Darling anime was officially announced in September 2022, so we expect the series to keep going strong!

HUGE DEMAND: Anime News Network reports that the My Dress-Up Darling manga has 7.5 million copies in circulation now, following the boost from the first season of the anime! The demand remains strong in our market too, as the extant volumes continue to get called for reprints!

COMPLETE FIRST SEASON OF THE ANIME STREAMING NOW: The My Dress-Up Darling anime adaptation was one of the hottest shows of the Winter 2022 anime season with high marks from viewers for the animation and story!

GORGEOUS ART: Featuring a style of art that most readers would associate with shojo manga aimed at girls and women, creator Shinichi Fukuda’s work really stands out in the mature manga category aimed at male readers.

SEXY MANGA ISN’T JUST FOR MEN: With its confident whirlwind of a leading lady, My Dress-Up Darling is sexy without being overly exploitative unlike much of the mature manga out there, opening up its appeal to more demographics.

EXPLORATION OF MASCULINITY: For a title directed mainly at a male readership, My Dress-Up Darling is refreshingly unique for having a male protagonist who is anything but stereotypically masculine. Instead of forcing him to evolve out of his traditionally effeminate hobbies to get the girl, the series doubles down on Wakana just the way he is!

AGE RATING: This material is rated Mature for sexual content and partial nudity.

SERIES LENGTH: Series is currently at 11 volumes and is ongoing.
