In a world where women don't exist and men transition to female when needed, the panther Agifu is the boss of a garden of cats, and the caretaker asks him to personally look after abandoned white lion, Val. Val becomes totally dependent on Agifu, and as he grows up, he can't stand the fact that Agifu goes to other cats for sexual satisfaction and determines to get strong enough to take him, himself. They're very cute in the first half, but Val is very asswholeish and rapey in the second half. And you can say that's how cats are, which is fair, but it's still uncomfortable to read, and sad after seeing cute baby Val. Trigger warnings: violence, attempted rape.

Alexei is a regular man reincarnated into the carefree life of a horse, until he meets the general Felix. After Alexei saves Felix from a bear, Felix takes a liking to him and takes him as his personal warhorse, which Alexei begrudgingly accepts, though he wishes Felix were a little gentler with him. But when it seems that Felix might get kidnapped and Alexei can't help but wish he had the hands to free him, he suddenly transforms into a human! A cute love story between a horse beastman and a human, though their relationship is a little weird once they get to the sex stuff, in my opinion. Trigger warning: manipulative sex.

Matsumoto is a weredog university student who likes to feed the cats every day, until he notices a calico stray that comes up to him. Shortly after, he's assigned to a group project with fellow student, Sasaki, and Matsumoto starts to suspect Sasaki was that cat. Turns out Sasaki just wanted a friend! And then they become more. Very cute and worth the read. Trigger warning: sleep kiss.

Ch.1, 4.5-4.7 - Mauri and Dragon - In a village devoid of women after they were all taken by a cruel lord, the young boy Mauri is offered to the wandering dragon god when he demands an offering. The dragon is at first displeased, but comes to like spending time with Mauri so much that when he sees the men of the village try to make Mauri "comfort" them like he did in the past, the dragon won't stand for it. Starts a little dark, but ends with a very cute and sweet family. Trigger warnings: mention of kidnapping, attempted rape. Ch.2 - The Rain God - Matsuri has always been able to see strange things, including the seemingly powerful being Shiromine who he's known and admired since he was a child. Matsuri has what he thinks is a one-sided crush on Shiromine, but when he lashes out at Shiromine for treating him like a child and Shiromine causes it to rain for days on end, he realizes that Shiromine cares for him more than he lets on. I like their relationship and how it's developed over time. Trigger warning: touching/kissing a minor. Ch.3a-3b - Hunter of Everlasting Spring - The god of spring (bird) has taken notice of the hunter Jiin who comes to the mountain every year and listens to his song, but this year the god of spring suddenly took human form because of his feelings for Jiin. When he was kidnapped and made to sing on command for greedy humans, Jiin was the one to save him, but now that they're together, the god still doesn't know how to express his feelings to Jiin. Trigger warning: kidnapping, slavery. Ch.4 - The Wandering One - After a young boy's family is killed, he's left alone and gets taken in by a man, Kitsune, and the very large horse he has with him, Orphée. The boy learns the two are lovers and the horse is a god, and when the group they're with is attacked again, including Kitsune, he and Orphée team up to take the men down. But the young boy isn't quite what he seems. Trigger warning: murder, attempted kidnapping. Vol.2 Ch.1-2 - Itsuka and Black Dragon - As war rages across the country, Itsuka leads a group of bandits who steal to get by while chasing after the black dragon who supposedly brings calamity, but who is also Itsuka's lover. But when he takes in a young boy named Jiri who's life was destroyed by the war, Jiri can't accept Itsuka's connection with the dragon. Trigger warning: war, beheading, death by starvation. Vol.2 Ch.3 - Lonely Tanta - Tanta is a feathered dog creature left alone after his mother's death. When he tries to pluck his feathers and catch a fish so he can enter a pack of dogs, a stranger helps him catch a fish, but his offering is rejected by the pack. However it turns out the stranger was a wondering god who took a liking to Tanta, so perhaps neither has to be alone anymore. This one has made me cry. I also like that it's the one story with love between a god and a nonhuman. Trigger warning: attempted murder (between animals).
