The Moon on a Rainy Night Vol. 02

The Moon on a Rainy Night Vol. 02. Perfect for fans of yuri series like Whisper Me a Love Song and sweet, sophisticated romances like A Sign of Affection!

A high school girl’s chance encounter with an enigmatic female classmate whose musical aspirations were complicated when an accident almost completely took her hearing leads to the slow blossoming of love.

Ever since developing hearing loss during childhood, high schooler Kanon has largely relied on lip reading to navigate the world. Now, her new friend Saki is slowly helping her come out of her shell and find a place for herself at school.

Meanwhile, Saki gets confronted by Kanon’s fiercely protective younger sister, Rinne, who suspects Saki of harboring ulterior motives toward Kanon. Things come to a head when Rinne storms out of the house one evening, forcing Kanon and Saki to go looking for her in the dead of night. Worried that she won’t be able to see or hear cars coming up behind them, Kanon asks Saki to hold her hand. Why does this simple act set Saki’s heart racing? Could it be…

Biographical Notes:

Kuzuhiro has written and illustrated several yuri manga, including Love Death, Ani No Yome To Kurashiteimasu, and Yuri Hime Wildrose. Kuzushiro’s latest series, the acclaimed yuri manga, The Moon on a Rainy Night, is being published in English by Kodansha.

Title Notes:

HARD-OF-HEARING REPRESENTATION: Like the wildly popular romance manga A Sign of Affection and A Silent Voice, this series offers a nuanced portrayal of hearing impairment against the backdrop of a tender romance.

A WELL-PACED YURI MELODRAMA: The relationship between the two female leads is a slow boil, with the usual misunderstandings and romantic rivals adding to the tension, reminiscent of the hits Whisper Me a Love Song and Bloom Into You.
