_Monster Musume: Everyday Life With Monster Girls_
Hornier than _Interviews With Monster Girls_, less horny than _Interspecies Reviewers_.
You can watch this on Hulu, CrunchyRoll, or HiDive.
Our hero wakes to a blaring alarm, only to discover that Miia, a Lamia, is curled up in his bed. She claims to be trying to warm up, but her coils are so tight our boy can barely breathe. Trying to get her to release him he grabs the tip of her tail.
This is effective in distracting her, because it's an erogenous zone. But I wouldn't say it gets her to loosen her grip.
She thinks her darling is frisky this morning. He passes out from lack of oxygen.
This is the cold open for the show.
The opening shows our boy having haremlike close encounters with a half dozen busty monster girls
Miia is here on an interspecies exchange program. Once the government stopped keeping the existence of demi-humans secret, the program was set up to help them integrate.
Our boy is Kimihito Kurusu, and he seems to have accidentally become a host family while his parents are away. Oops. Some kind of paperwork screwup, no doubt.
Smith, the interspecies coordinator drops by. She's noticed that Miia is desperately in love with him.
She's here to remind him about the Prohibited Matters: any injury to the guest is strictly forbidden... and under the current interpretation of the law, deflowering counts.
Not to mention, as the first Lamia in Japan, it would be a diplomatic incident!
So hands off, buster!
Miia doesn't care about the Prohibited Matters, and would fuck him right now.
Except in her excitement, she squoze him a little too hard and dislocated his shoulder. (Smith pops it back in.)
How about a date instead?
Sadly, most places are not Lamia-accessible yet.
This store says it's open for all species.
It's a lingerie shop. Shenanigans ensue.
Miia attracts attention on the street. Some inquisitive, some rude. Kurusu stops her from getting in a fight: the Prohibited Matters go both ways and if she injures someone she'll be deported.
In an attempt to escape unwanted attention, the pair get out of sight... by checking into a love hotel.
This is actually a chance for Miia to bemoan how scary she appears to humans.
Then the interspecies enforcement squad arrives to make sure they're not breaking any laws.
As they retreat, they are met with more mockery, and Miia gets mad. Kurusu determines that while the Prohibited Matters will get her in trouble if she overreacts, there's no law against _him_ punching that asshole in the face.
(I am not a lawyer, this is not legal advice.)
Miia asks him why he did it. Kurusu replies that he couldn't let someone be cruel to a girl like that.
Miia is overjoyed that he truly sees her as a girl despite the species difference and is DTF right now. Only Smith deciding to impose on them for dinner keeps them out of jail.
Papi the Harpy arrives. She's a birdbrain.
She kidnaps Kurusu because she's run away and knows she needs a chaperone. Shenanigans ensue.
When it becomes clear she'll be deported without a host, Kurusu volunteers to save her.
Miia is jealously protective of their relationship.
Centoria Shianus, the Centaur with a passion for justice, hunts down a purse snatcher that has been terrorizing the neighborhood. Of course, due to the Prohibited Matters, she can't actually fight him. She needs a patsy. Kurusu will do nicely.
Shenanigans ensue.
Smith lets drop some news: the interspecies exchange act may soon be revised to allow marriage. They just need a good test case.
The girls are sure they'd love to be a test case. But only one of them can be.
When a full moon sets their animal instincts loose, shenanigans ensue.
A slime girl appears. They name her Suu.
It's not clear how much mentality she actually has at first. She mostly seems to mimic others.
But when one of the neighborhood children is nearly hit by a car, she shows her own sort of heroism.
Meroune Lorelei (Mero), a mermaid, arrives.
I think we're blaming Smith for all the monster girls being in one house.
Miia is worried that Mero is a rival for Kurusu's love. (Shenanigans ensue.) But Mero is only interested in tragic love stories. She wants to lose.
Miia is molting and having trouble. Can Kurusu lend a hand? (Yes.)
Papi is going to lay an egg. A documentary filmmaker/pervert wants to film it, for science. (Or so he says.) He goes too far and gets thrown out on his ear.
We see him report to his boss: a spider-woman.
A gang of violence orcs have taken over a Doujin shop, and taken the employees hostage! They demand all adult manga shift their primary storylines to Orc x Female Knight.
They're hiding behind the Interspecies Exchange Act -- use of violence against them by humans is illegal.
This is where the M.O.N. squad steps in. A crack law enforcement team made entirely of monster girls.
We've got:
Manako, Cyclops sniper
Tionishia, Ogre heavy
Doppel, Doppelganger covert ops
Zombina, Living Dead commando
With Smith serving as liaison, of course.
After dispatching the orc terrorists, MON moves on to their next complaint: the documentary filmmaker.
He's a bit tied up right now. The arachne (spider woman) has fled.
She snags a hostage off the street. Guess who it is? Kurusu.
They take shelter in a warehouse.
Rachnera Arachnera, our arachne, was rejected by her host family and sold off to the filmmaker. She's sour on humans.
She notices Kurusu's arousal, but suggests that he's only interested in what's above the waist, and repulsed by her lower half.
Nope. Kurusu's a leg man.
When MON arrives, Kurusu think the cops are after him for his (vanilla) assault on the filmmaker the previous episode.
Rachnera takes advantage of the confusion (and Smith's lazy attitude) to get herself transferred into his care.
Shenanigans lead to Kurusu catching a cold. Smith is worried that a mutation that enables cross-species transmission could lead to a pandemic.
(This is actually in the episode.)
As Suu has no anatomy, they send her as nursemaid. Everyone gives her (questionable) advice.
If you marry any of them, I'll kill you.
- D
This is the threatening letter Kurusu receives.
To draw out the culprit, he goes on a very public date with Miia. But Mero's "help" causes trouble, and Miia is drawn away by Draco the Dragonewt.
She's not the sender though.
Papi, Kurusu and Suu go grilling where they meet Kii, a dryad who has grown wild because of illegal fertilizer dumping. She's not D though.
Cerea goes on a date with Kurusu. Lilith, a Devil Girl, interferes and accidentally helps bring Cerea out of her shell. She's not D either.
A second threatening letter appears. It's almost romantic in its tone.
The girls from MON want to solve the case right away. Also, they're sick of watching Kurusu go on dates with the other girls. So now he's going to date them! (Shenanigans ensue.)
D is Doppel. She and Smith invented the threatening notes to force Kurusu to get closer to the girls so they can have their interspecies test case.
What was the deal with the second note then?
What second note? Oh no!
The second note was written by a Dullahan who has lost her head.
Kurusu and the girls help find it, and befriend her.
But she is a reaper of the dead and pronounces that Kurusu is at death's door.
Taking this as a threat, the other girls decide to evac Kurusu to save his life. But they're not really safe on their own. He's probably in more danger from their help than anything else.
But Lala the Dullahan isn't a Reaper of anything. She's just chunibyo.
Lala decides to stick around to see why Kurusu doesn't die from all the shenanigans. Smith approves; one less troublemaker to keep track of.
Kurusu is having trouble making ends meet. Food costs are up for the size of his large family.
After groveling at the market for unsalable leavings and combing the woods for edible wild plants, they'll still barely make ends meet.
Didn't you know you can expense your food costs? Looks like Smith forgot to mention that.
For the end, there is just shenanigans ever after.
Turns out that riding a centaur is considered an extremely intimate act. And guess what happened?
Centoria decides that Kurusu is her destined master. She asks him to call her Cerea (her family and close friends do,) and moves in.
