sadslime's manga / #Genetically engineered humans(4)

Karim is just a basic thief working for a Robin Hood-esque gang, but at an illegal auction he runs into demi-human Asena up for sale, and when Asena attempts to escape, Karim can't help but intervene. He ends up housing Asena with him until they can put him on a boat home, but Asena wants nothing to do with him. Except, as it turns out, Asena's body can't help it. But as the two grow closer and start to learn about each others' worlds, they forget that Asena is still being pursued by the people who bought him in the first place. I really like Karim, one of the most standup semes I've seen in a while, and Asena is cute. The lore for Asena's village is also really cool, but the whole explanation for Asena's body 'transforming into a female' seems forced to me and took me out of it a bit. Still, a really good read. Trigger warnings: human(or demi-human) trafficking, noncon, kidnapping, drugs, attempted rape.

Ch.1-3 - Hayato is a student with a communication disorder who runs into a shady dealer of humanoid pets called "novalis" mistreating one of his wares. Hayato can't help but take the reject novalis made up of DNA from several different animals, and that's how he ends up taking care of Kuro. Although Hayato is anxious, he quickly finds that taking care of little Kuro gives meaning to his life, but when Kuro has a sudden growth spurt caused by his desire to be closer to Hayato, Hayato no longer knows how to treat him, and a novalis doctor steps, telling Hayato that if he can't accept Kuro now, he needs to let him go. An interesting setup that was a good read, but felt a bit rushed. No trigger warnings, but the mental age gap between Kuro and Hayato is bit awkward. Ch.4-5 - A spin-off about the doctor who treated Kuro that shows how he met his assistant Aki, a novalis who he picked up one rainy night who had a dark past in which he was used as a sex slave by his former master, and still ran away out of fear of hurting that person due to his genetic makeup. Another interesting story that added some depth to this world, but it really felt like this setting deserved more time to be fully fleshed out. Trigger warning: sex slave.

A series of stories about "cats" - genetically engineered creatures that love their owners unconditionally and must have sex or they will die. Ch.1-2 - Please Love Me (More) - The player Emiya's sister gifts him a cat, Rei, to help rehabilitate him. Ch.3 - Sango the Black Cat - Etsushi wins the black cat Sango as a store prize. Etsushi didn't want a cat, so he's a bit troubled by the situation, and meanwhile, Sango has a complex about being an unwanted black cat. Ch.4 - Wishing I Could Love You - Mikito's sister impulsively gets the cat Rokurou, but Mikito worries she can't take care of it, so she gives Rokurou to him, but Mikito is frightened to sleep with a man. Ch.5 - Wishing You Could Love Me - The doctor who takes care of the cats is chatting with the troublesome cat Ichii, who insists he's in love with the doctor, when Ichii's blindfold comes off and he sees the doctor, making the doctor his master. So now the doctor has to take responsibility.

A short doujinshi with a day in the life of a man who adopted a genetically modified cat human (made for sex) who now wants to go outside, so the man distracts the catboy with sex. Trigger warning: feels like statutory rape, sex slavery.
