The second volume of "Wolf Boy Shinkami-kun" will be released on May 20th. Mahiru (Sakura Mahiru) is passing by the river at dusk when she sees a beautiful boy. The story begins when the white-haired transfer student she saw yesterday transfers to Mahiru's class. This is the latest work by Aoi Nui, the author of "Keeping a Boy," which was made into a TV drama.

▼Volume 2 Synopsis▼
Their classmate, the beautiful boy Shinkami-kun, is actually a werewolf. Mahiru, the only human who knows this secret, heads into the mountains alone to rescue him after he collapses under the influence of the full moon. Who appears before the pair when they find themselves in a difficult situation?! And as she interacts with the Shinkami family, Mahiru learns of Shinkami-kun's "other secret"... Werewolf and human. The two grow ever closer, overcoming the barriers between their races, in Volume 2!

A mysterious wolf boy and a shy, quiet girl. A warm and slightly stimulating story about two pure people. Please give it a read.
