LatestMazama Jin here. As much as it pains me to admit it, I'm part of a stupid mutt's pack at Seton Academy. Being with someone really is a challenge. It's a different story when two people are bound to each other by fate, like Hitomi-chan and me, but most aren't like that. And going out of one's way to try to accomplish something so difficult is just foolish. But now I've been forced to think that might not always be the case.... after watching all the animals at this school. As much as it pains me to admit it.
Seton Academy, a school where animals of all species gather to live and learn together. A sacred garden of learning, where students hone their primal instincts and the laws are of the jungle. Where species pit against species in a daily struggle for survival... Now enter the animal-hating human Jin Mazama, and the lonely wolf Ranka Okami. When man meets wolf in an encounter for the ages, this food chain is about to be shook. “Species shmecies! If we’ve shared face-licks, you’re a friend to me! Welcome to the pack!”
