Just some random Sylph fun ~ The following is from the series Doubutsu no Naka no Hito. When literally translated, the title in English would be People in Animals, but since I think that sounds like a kinky porno title, I changed it to The Animal People instead.
Yeah, I pulled a Tokyopop. I’m not ashamed of that.
Anyway, enjoy ~ (sorry I needed to add an extra line here because for some reason, WP skews the comic page all weird. Not gonna ask o___O)
Panel 1:
Sign: Petting Zoo
Tsukimi: I am Tsumiki Kimiboshi, a first year in high school. My house is actually a zoo run by my family. But the thing with our zoo is…
The animals here have people living inside them!
Panel 2:
Take Yuki-chan over there in the petting zoo for example – if you examine him closely, you’ll be able to find a zipper on his back.
Looks like today he has to keep his pelt on though *phew*
Panel 3
(right below panel 2, yeah I know strange)
“Yuki-chan! You’re such a hard worker!”
Panel 4:
Yuki: “There’s a lot of people today so I’ll only peek my face out ok?” <3
Panel 5:
Tsumiki: “GET OUT!” *Having a face stare at me where a back should be is just wrong!*
Note: Tsukimi actually says “People come out from inside the animals.” but that just sounds weird o___O Since I’ve been following the series, I changed her line a bit to flow better. Also, at the end, she actually says “HALF DONE JOB!” which is to say, Yuki is only half way out and it creeps her out. But I like “HAVING A FACE STARE AT ME WHERE A BACK SHOULD BE IS JUST WRONG” better xD
Title: Let’s Touch!
Sign: Petting Zoo
Yuki: “Allow me to explain how the Petting Zoo works ~”
Kids: Yay ~
Yuki: “At the Petting Zoo, we have lots of little critters. You can feed them ~”
(boxes: Chicks, guinea pigs, turtles, rabbits)
“You can hold them in your lap ~”
“You can even hug them ~”
Box: Rabbits have sensitive ears so don’t pick them up by their ears!
Yuiki: “Now, touch me children!”
Kids: “M-mister?” D8
Note: The title actually says “Let’s pet!” which is what Yuki says at the end of the 4-koma but the literal translation just doesn’t give have that wtf feel (at least to me anyway). TOUCH ME CHILDREN! sounds a lot more creeper, which would explain the children’s omfg stranger danger look xD
There are more 4-koma gags in June’s chapter but I just wanted to share the TOUCH ME CHILDREN one because it made me lol ~ If you’re interested in Animal People, please support the manga-ka when the tankoban is released 8D
lol that’s cute and messed up at the same time

I love how you added a stranger-danger element to that rabbit.

Whether man or rabbit, it’s always stranger danger time when you’re propositioned to “touch them” xD
