The Boy and the Beast
Description
It's a different story to tell about Kota who finds himself in an alternative world where he is raised by a man named Komatsu. Perhaps things are going wrong when the deep darkness threatens to throw the human and savage worlds into the chaos. Now, it seems that the strong bond between this unlikely family will be subject to the final test that may determine the fate of all.
