Eiji Masuda's original romantic comedy manga centers around Asahi Kuromine, who has a crush on a cute girl named Yōko Shiragami. Shiragami just happens to be a vampire. Asahi cannot keep a secret, but he is determined to keep Shiragami's secret anyways.
Masuda launched the manga in Akita Shoten's Weekly Shōnen Champion magazine in 2013. Akita Shoten published the manga's 16th compiled book volume on April 8. A television anime adaptation of the manga premiered in Japan last July. Crunchyroll streamed the series as it aired in Japan. Seven Seas Entertainment is releasing the manga in English under the title My Monster Secret, and published the second volume on Tuesday.
