Kurenai no Ookami to Ashikase no Hitsuji

In a world where humans are wolves in sheep's clothing, Youichi Douchinji is a boy who often daydreams about various things, but never speaks his mind. One day, while gazing at a full red moon, a girl suddenly appears before him and punches him with a silver knuckle, leaving him unconscious and unable to recall the incident. The next day, a new student, Akatsuki Ayame, joins his class. As Youichi returns home, he discovers that the girl who punched him is none other than Ayame, and her silver knuckle has a unique ability - it can draw out a person's inner thoughts or desires, known as a "wolf", from the superficial mask that restrains it, known as a "sheep". However, when someone's desires become overwhelming and they become obsessed with their inner thoughts, the "wolf" outgrows the "sheep", and the person gains the ability to see the World of the Red Moon. Ayame explains that she lacks a "sheep" and desires one, and asks Youichi to become her "sheep", a request that marks the beginning of their complex and intriguing story. Youichi's new role as Ayame's "sheep" is not without its consequences. As he becomes more deeply embroiled in her world, he begins to experience the turmoil that comes with being a vessel for someone's inner thoughts. Ayame's "wolf" is a manifestation of her deepest desires, and as it grows stronger, the boundaries between their two worlds begin to blur. Youichi must navigate the delicate balance between his own identity and his role as Ayame's "sheep", all while confronting the darker aspects of his own nature. As their story unfolds, the lines between reality and the World of the Red Moon become increasingly blurred, and Youichi finds himself caught in a web of complex relationships and desires.
