Cats, man.

This is a sequel to Kanon-san's Little Cutie, by the same author!

Well this clears up the "actual animal people or metaphorically personified animals" dilemma and it is also very cute and good.

Seriously, stop trying to kill me with all this cute. My heart can't take it!

It was so cute my heart just melted~

They're adorable and all, but this feels like a nekopara situation...are they like second class citizens? Humanoid pets? It's weird!

They are normal animals...drawn as humans. I think. @.@

I'm just gonna gloss over the larger implications of the setting and go with seeing it as an adoptive children dynamic because I have a feeling the author didn't actually put much thought into the societal ramifications of domesticated animal kemonomimi as sapient humanoid species.

Rough cat tongue on the cheek... shiver

I don't think so, it was ambiguous in the first one but here the humans directly respond to what is being said by the animal girls as if they actually knew what they are saying which would imply that it's not artistic personification but actually the in-universe case.

okay so yea I need twenty more volumes of this

Complete... cute.... overload (gasp)! Must... write... good.... review (gasp)!

I loved it up to a point... then the suddenness of it all seemed so rushed?
From page 17 or 18 on it just was... PZOWIE! The cat turns 180 and is totally happy because... because... what the heck? A single nose-boop is not enough to overcome all those (to a cat) insults and acts of aggression.

I love the series, but that bit just lost me entirely. It needed a couple more pages of 'cat mellows out' to be believable... I use that term "believable" loosely of course, lolz! It is a story with talking animals after all.

Anyone else reminded of that video where the dog farts and the cat vomits? It literally came to me when they kissed and then the owners kissed as though it was romantic but I imagine if they weren’t humanoid it’d be pretty weird

This is a story about two lesbians raising two adoptive children that are probably also lesbians.

It's cute and all, and from what I know of it a pretty accurate take on the "language barrier" between dogs and cats, but also gives me that uncomfortable old NekoPara vibe. Plus I'm pedantic enough to be bothered by the insistent description of unambiguous hands - opposable thumbs and all - as "paws". That's not what the word means gdi! >_>

I reply to my dogs like they're actually saying something. Maybe the author does too, lol. Considering the drawing of the cat showing body language I'm voting on actual animals.

Unless you are a telepath or your dogs are capable of advanced sapient thought, I kinda doubt this level of conversation is comparable. The owners reacted to and answered pinpointed questions and gave a literal book to a dog, who read it and understood it and had a conversation with a cat afterwards.

If you or your dogs are somehow capable of this... please share your secrets with me!

It's really better if you don't think about it too much.

That'd be fine if it was, say, a zany screwball comedy or one of those lulzily over-the-top action shounens. But when what's supposed to be a heartwarming slice-of-life type story with a touch of romance requires you to actively ignore implied slavery in order to not be uneasy with its premises I think an important mark or two was missed somewhere along the way... : /

I get what you mean. Though, curiously enough, most people I know were more annoyed by Shigure's incestuous thirst than by the servant catgirls...

The azis in C. J. Cherryh's Cyteen universe come to mind...

I didn't get a NekoPara vibe from this at all since it involved relationships between two animal characters and didn't have a human protag that went about everything like.

This was just a whole bunch of cute

Rather missing the point, which is primarily about the whole "sentient-creatures-as-property" bit... also known in agrarian societies as "slavery".
