Kotoyama's Yofukashi no Uta (Call of the Night) manga ended with chapter 200 in this year's ninth issue of Weekly Shounen Sunday on Wednesday.
Kotoyama began serializing the supernatural romance manga in Shounen Sunday magazine in August 2019. Shogakukan shipped the 18th volume on November 17 and will released the 19th volume on February 16. The 20th and final volume is scheduled to go on sale on March 18.
VIZ Media licensed the manga in English in July 2020. The 14th volume shipped on December 12, with the 15th volume scheduled to be release on March 12. Yofukashi no Uta is also simulpublished through the VIZ Manga digital service.
LIDENFILMS produced a 13-episode television anime that aired in Summer 2022. Sentai Filmworks licensed the anime for North America, Europe, Oceania, and selected Latin American and Asian territories. The anime is streaming on HIDIVE with English sub and dub.
In 2023, Yofukashi no Uta won the 68th Shogakukan Manga Award in the Shounen category.
Synopsis
Kou Yamori seems like a typical middle school student on the surface. Relatively good at studies and amiable with his classmates, he puts a lot of effort into maintaining this facade. One day, however, he decides to stop pretending and quits school, developing insomnia as a result of having no daytime outlet for his energy. When taking walks alone at night, he feels marginally better, though he is aware that his inability to sleep should be considered a serious problem.
On one such walk, Kou meets a weird girl, Nazuna Nanakusa, who diagnoses the cause of his sleeplessness: despite making changes in his life, he is still holding himself back from experiencing true freedom. She says that he won't be able to sleep unless he is satisfied with how he spends his waking hours. When it appears that she has resolved his current worries, Nazuna invites him back to her apartment to share her futon. After a while, unaware that he is only feigning unconsciousness, she leans over him—and bites his neck! [Written by MAL Rewrite]
