Synopsis

“I will get stronger. I won’t let society or my instincts get the better of me.”
Legoshi accepts himself as a predator and takes the first step toward falling in love with Haru. However, just when it seems he has regained his peaceful school life at Cherryton Academy, a new crisis draws near. And in the city’s underbelly, the remnants of the Shishigumi, who were supposed to have been defeated, are beginning to rise to power again. Will Legoshi be able to protect what really matters to him?
