Chisato Abe’s comments
To my great gratitude, I have been given the opportunity to have a special collector’s edition of the Yatagarasu series made.
The collection itself will include “Karasu ni hitoe wa niawanai” and *Karasu wa aruji wo erabanai,” but it will come with a cover illustration and an acrylic stand, both created as brand-new work by Natsuki.
The concept for the cover illustration is commemorative images of historical great figures at Yamauchi.
On the cover of the collector’s edition, you’ll see Asebi and Yukiya, who play the roles of the protagonists at the beginning of the series; on the back cover, you’ll see the Omurasaki no Omae (The Empress) at the end of the second part of the series and the Marquis (Sessai).
The artwork for the back cover is scheduled to remain undisclosed until the release, but it is truly wonderful!
In a sense, as a commemoration of the Yatagarasu series reaching its conclusion, I hope you will pick it up.
The main stories. The start of it all. The retail price of the luxury commemorative edition (which includes an afterword of Chisato Abe, her signature and cloth binding, etc.) will be around 50 euros (8,800 ¥) that includes the acrylic stands of the trio, plus a postcard of Yukiya if you order it at the Kinokuniya Bookstore or other participating bookstores. This coincides with the Kinokuniya’s 100th anniversary. Most of all, to celebrate the release of the last two books in the series this year.
Oh my God! I want it all!
The ending art illustrations in Yatagarasu after each episode are so gorgeous.
So pretty

Karasu wa Aruji wo Erabanai E04
I just LOVE how protective of Yukiya both Sumio and Wakamiya are.
They are always shielding him from danger. That's their baby and if anyone wants to hurt him, it'll have to over their dead bodies!
They are so family to me!
YATAGARASU: KARASU WA ARUJI WO ERABANAI (2024)
#04. an imperial council ⋆ 御前会議
Just started episode 3 of Yatagarasu and I wonder, is Hamayu a kin'u as well? She looks like the princes' sister.. or mother? She told Asebi she's not into the crown prince, to consider her just a spectator. And her lady-in-waiting told her to remember her role. To do what, kill the crown prince? Protect him? Reveal sth? I'm intrigued already 😊
Also, who is poisoning the crown prince's well water? I assume the empress, (his mother in law), but it seems many people don't care for him
