Tatoe Tsugai ja Nakutemo

In a society where humans are Betas and beastmen are classified as either Alphas or Omegas, beastmen coexist with the human majority by assuming human appearances. Akihiko, a snow leopard Alpha and heir to a wealthy, influential family, possesses both status and striking good looks. Yet he is weary of being valued solely for his position rather than his true self. Seeking genuine connection, he leaves his elite private academy for a public high school while retaining his beast form, hoping to find someone who will accept him for who he really is. Arriving at his new school without a chauffeur for the first time, Akihiko meets Haruyoshi, known as Haru, a boy distinguished by his tanned skin and sharp teeth. Through Haru, Akihiko experiences everyday joys like eating crêpes and visiting arcades, ultimately making his first real friend. As their bond deepens, Akihiko’s feelings begin to evolve beyond friendship, marking the start of a tender coming-of-age romance.
