Description

From the creator of Perfect World comes a new josei manga about a pure romance that blossoms in the unfair world of the foster care system. Blending a realistic representation of the situation faced by the most vulnerable children in Japanese society with a page-turning love story, Sheltering Eaves is, like the teens who come to life on its pages, one of a kind.

High schooler Yoru was sent to a group home at the age of ten after her mother abused her. Tenjaku, a boy the same age, took her under his wing. Now, as teenagers, Yoru and Tenjaku only have a year left before they are legally required to leave the home, and they must pack a lot of growing up into a short period of time. The foremost decision in Yoru's mind: what to do about the feelings for Tenjaku that she's sheltered in her heart during their years together...

Selected for the hit-making Kono Manga ga Sugoi! (This Manga is Amazing!) list by representatives of the Japanese manga industry.

Advance Praise

Praise for Perfect World:

“Depicts with great delicacy and courage the difficulties some with disabilities experience getting involved in romantic relationships… Rie Aruga refuses to romanticize, pushing her heroine to face the reality of disability. She invites her readers to the same tasks of empathy, knowledge and recognition.” –Slate.fr

“A thoughtful love story. The emotional core of both plot and characters indicates a thoughtfulness that bodes well for the series as a whole.” – Anime News Network
