Original Author, Nihei Tsutomu
“Ooyukiumi no Kaina” is a story that I had spent a long time with. I am having a mysterious feeling as my idea is being created visually by others and this feeling is slightly different when the video adaptation of my manga was decided.
The manga by Takemoto Itoe will be released first followed by the anime, so please look forward to this series!
