The students of Hoshimiya Girls' Academy wear beautiful uniforms punctuated by their long, lustrous hair. Triggered by a certain "incident" that shakes paradise, their hidden feelings begin to entangle.
Written and illustrated by Yuriko Hara, Cocoon Entwined was serialized in Enterbrain's Comic Beam from February 10, 2018, to December 12, 2022.[1] The series was collected in six tankōbon volumes from September 2018, to January 2023.
The series is licensed for an English release in North America by Yen Press.[2]
The series has received positive reviews. Rebecca Silverman of Anime News Network gave Cocoon Entwineds volume 1 an overall B− rating, remarking that that the first volume felt like a prelude that while interesting, hasn't quite gotten off the ground yet, concluding that "If volume two is able to solidify things more, this could be a series worth keeping an eye on."[3] Alternately, Brittany Vincent, reviewing the series for Otaku USA, praised the first volumes pacing, stating that "some may find Cocoon Entwined a bit slow, but its pace is deliberate, the romantic plots develop at a satisfying slow burn, and its tone is entrancing."[4] Erica Friedman of Yuricon gave the final volume a 9 out of 10 rating and praised the series overall; "I found this series fascinating, occasionally creepy, always fraught…but this was exactly the right ending. And beautifully drawn as the whole series has been. [...] As a final punctuation on the tropes of private girls’ school Yuri from a century ago, this series was a perfect farewell."[5]
