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.
