Call of the Night

Kou Yamori is a middle schooler with a secret: he's quit school and wanders the night, unable to sleep or find true satisfaction in his waking hours. This lonely, nocturnal existence takes an unexpected turn when he encounters Nazuna Nanakusa, a free-spirited vampire who offers him a taste of her world. Intrigued by her effortless joy and the allure of the night, Kou makes a bold request: he wants to become a vampire too. There's just one catch – to transform, he must first fall in love with her. As their late-night adventures unfold across the shimmering cityscape, Kou discovers that the world after dark is far more vibrant and complex than he ever imagined, populated by an eclectic mix of humans and creatures of the night. Can he truly find love and escape the mundane, or is the call of the night merely a temporary escape?
