Mousou Kareshi (Pet) Series

彼氏(ペット)シリーズ
Mousou Kareshi (Pet) Series
[Delusional Boyfriend (Pet) Series]


About: One day, MC met a certain guy, and that guy asked her if she could take them as her pet. The story is of the two of them living together in this unique relationship.


Devilish - Kuro (CV: Aoi Shota)
MC first found Kuro when he was drinking alone near a trash bin by the streets. He said he was just after breaking up with his former master and asked if MC felt sorry enough for him to take him in, which she did. Kuro has an adorable persona and he used it to his advantage as much as he can. Although with MC, he seemed to found himself honestly doing things she would asked him to do, whereas with other masters before, he would wriggle his way out of it. Kuro has a passion for fashion designs and has a big contest he planned on entering, but he didn't managed to get any inspiration for his piece. He spent the late night walking around to blow off some steam but he made MC worried about him instead. She was upset, but she still gives her support for him to not giving up. He later won the contest and he told MC that he had fallen for her at the same time he shared the news.


Angelic - Shiro (CV: Yamashita Daiki)
Shiro came up to MC when she was browsing in the pet shop supposedly was looking one to adopt. He told her that he was the little boy who lived right next door to her family's home when she was younger. He asked her to be taken as her pet, and she agreed with a one month trial period. Shiro sounds and acts like a young boy but he mentioned he's a university student. He bought one of those jelly beads that expanded when soaked in water and thought it would be pretty to make a lot of it in the bathtub. Turns out he poured too much and completely filled the tub in no time at all with thousands of those beads. He admitted what he did and MC left him off with just a warning because he didn't try to lie or hide his mistakes. One scene when MC wanted to go grocery shopping at night, he came along and then helped her from a biked thief. He knew it by then he wanted to stay with her all the time to protect her. When the one month ends, MC told him that she liked having him around thus agreed to be his caretaker from then on. Shiro however confessed his feelings to MC and wanted to stay as her lover.


Meddlesome - Yuuya (CV: Satou Takuya)
Never listened to this yet. I really want to though. Satou doing this type is always my weakness.


Loyal - Sakito (CV: Shingaki Tarusuke)
MC found a man wounded and unconscious near her home and she brought him inside to nurse him. He later woke up with no memory about himself, or how he happened to be wounded there. With nothing but his Pet License on him, he assured MC not to take him to the hospital since the wounds were not serious or life-threatening. Learning that his name in the license is Sakito, he used that name and offered MC to take him as a pet instead of just free-loading in her property. He promised her that he will only stay until his memory comes back. After a scene which MC was bothered by a strange man, it was obvious that Sakito is easily provoked and responded with violence. MC also noticed that he has a good writing skills from the daily journal he kept to help with his memory recollection, and though can be quite awkward with domestic chores, he absolutely has no affinity with kitchen skills. A month passed, all of Sakito's memory had returned. He is actually a pet of someone who lived quite near to MC's apartment. He was on a pursue of a stalker that was targeting one of the resident there. He got the wounds when he apprehended the suspect and got into a fight. Sakito eventually returned to his original master, but since they lived very close by, he would meet MC regularly as they are now dating as lovers.


Wolf - Naoya (CV: Masuda Toshiki)
The shop owner can't stop bothering Naoya to find himself a master so he just stopped a random person in the streets and asked them if they liked animals. MC happened to be the person he stopped and he decided by himself that she would be his new master. Naoya is very distant with MC at first, saying he just used her to have a place to sleep and eat. But he got a little warmer when he realized MC takes her job as his caretaker very seriously like cooking all his favorite meals and take him out to walk when the day is clear. Naoya has a hobby of photography and said to have always love it since he was a kid living in Okinawa, though he never planned to make it his profession. One day, he happened to read a magazine where it featured an amateur photo contest's finalists. He recognized one of the shots to be his, which was included in a memory card he got stolen before. Naoya wanted to forget about it but MC insisted he does something about it, and she was clearly upset when he got angry and ordered her to never mentioned the topic again. He asked her why she trusted him when no one would because he had no proof to claim the shot was his, and MC explained that they're a family, and family members trusts each other. Little by little, Naoya could see MC kind honesty in caring for his well being. He went to the magazine's office to place his claim, and successfully proven the shot was his (I don't think it was ever explained how he convinced them). He later confessed to have fallen in love with MC and said he would stay with her by his side forever.


Rabbit - Mao (CV: Kimura Ryohei)
Mao works as a waiter in a cafe which the MC frequents to. He always felt something different when conversing with her compared to other people, and he knew by instinct that she is the person who is going to be his master. He asked her to come and meet him at a park after his shift and asked personally if she could take him in, and she accepted. Mao is a very gentle and kind soul who speaks softly and never once selfish. He came to pick her up from the train station one day because it suddenly rains and he got a fever the next day. From then, he realized he liked being cared of by her. After four months living as a pet, he asked her to come to the park where he asked to be his master before and said that he had been having feelings for her. MC felt the same and they started a new relationship with one another.


Final say: I... guess they're really suggesting that there is a store who offered actual human beings to be taken as pets. There's even special license for them to BE pets? The issue brought up in Angel volume where MC told Shiro to not tell people he is a human pet because it's... shameful? Hmmmmm??? Anyway. It's a cute series, nonetheless. I really wished I could listen to Satou's volume. He must played a really fun character there.

  1. Thank you for writing this review! I've been searching everywhere to find out Shiro's portion of the story because he's voiced by Daiking.
