NATSUO NNA

The sparrow village has lore that says one sparrow will be sacrificed to the white snakes to keep their village safe. But then a little male sparrow meets a little male white snake and they become friends?Artist's Twitter

Komazu is a sparrow, and as a sparrow, there’s one thing he knows about snakes: they eat small birds. When he encounters Shiratō, the white snake, of course he expects the worst — but instead of trying to eat him, Shiratō saves him from a boar stampede and flees, teary-eyed, when Komazu lashes out in fear. When the sparrow realizes he's perhaps misjudged snakes and decides to learn more about Shiratō, the two grow closer, first as friends and then as something more. They are predator and natural prey, coming from different species and social castes; can love overcome the laws of nature, despite the differences in their way?

From being dumped by the girl he liked to being passed over for a job, Toma hasn't been picked by anyone since he was a kid. One day on his way home from work, our good samaritan rescues a cat stuck in a tree. Little did he know the cat would follow him home and that he could talk! Said cat makes himself right at home and follows him everywhere. His new 'pet' is always at his side: the kitchen, the bedroom, even the bathroom... Toma always wanted to be needed, but not like this!
