I'm tolerably certain y'all are putting way more thought into the setting than the author ever did.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, anything worth analyzing is worth overanalyzing to death.

But seriously, I did agree with you originally, but recent developments in the series have made clear that the author either did put a lot of thought into the social structures of the setting, or accidentally created a very disturbing (and interesting) world. Since the social structures ultimately play a major role in the actual plot of the story, I'd argue that it's intentional, and the setting is something readers are meant to engage with when addressing the themes expressed through this work.

There’s a sense in which speculating about authorial intent (absent public statements by the author) is sort of irrelevant—the text itself is what it is. I guess I’m just so imprinted by the doujins that it’s hard to imagine this series being quite as intentional as all that.

I do miss the butterflies, though.

Final chapter is posted on our chaosteam page if anyone wants to read. It will be uploaded tomorrow on dynasty

Chapter is uploaded but extra will be later :v (one page was missing)

ahhhh the fuzzies are over, such a cute series, im glad it turned out good.

I'm still not sure how I feel about this pairing. It's cute and deeply wrong at the same time

I‘m amazed how those few pages of an „ending“ can turn an otherwise cute story into crap... seems like the author was sick an tired of their work and wanted it to get done with...

Well that was one bitersweet strawberry tart

Cute story with a happy ending.

The last bit of the series got surprisingly heavy
It was good, nonetheless

Shouldn't they be more concerned about the age, rather than her species
Have they ever shown adult beaatkins?

‘Twas ever thus.

Uhhmmm the last chapter reminds me of happy sugar life's ending in anime

It was an ending that couldn’t have been avoided, in my opinion. The government seemed to be strict with its laws and regulations on beastkin (perhaps there were mandatory checks/visitations that would impede on building a proper romantic relationship at the mansion). Mel would not have been able to live freely, nor be able to go outside without her master. I’d like to believe that the reason none of the other characters were told where they were going or ‘that’ they were going (apart from Collette, obviously) is to keep them out of trouble, but it could also be because they weren’t trusted enough to tell?

Either way, I enjoyed this series tremendously. It was quite wholesome, even though it explored some realistic and mature themes. I am looking forward to Itou’s next work, hopefully it’s as interesting as this one was.

I don't say this ending is bad, but I think that the story must be end with some huge explosion, Like asteroid fall from the sky, or nuclear explosion, 1 ton TNT explode at the same time

I don't know bout your type of ending but for me it's fine ending since it's a slice of life genre

After all the discussions, I'm kinda find myself forcing a smile when looking at this ending. Truly hope this is the last time Itou Hachi takes a shot at worldbuilding, or that they at least address the infortunate implications it carries along instead of brushing them off as non issues.
