Yen Press is releasing the manga in English and describes the story:
The Earth is on the brink of a Third World War when super-powered individuals emerge from every nation across the globe, ending the conflict and ushering in a new era of relative peace. Among those heroes, Japan is represented by a shy young girl known as “Shy.” She may spend more time worrying about her own shortcomings than fighting villains, but she will show the world that despite everything, she still has the heart of a hero!
Miki first published Shy in Weekly Shōnen Champion magazine as a single-volume manga in January 2017 and then began serializing the manga in the same magazine in August 2019. The manga's 26th compiled book volume will be released in Japan on September 6.
