About this title

Synopsis

There's nothing in the world more enjoyable than reading for Harumi Kazuhito. He spends his days with his head buried in books. But one night when he was enjoying a good story in a café, a violent robber comes in and threatens the people inside. Kazuhito is not the hero type but something came over him and he tried to subdue the robber only to get killed. When he came to, he was reborn as a dog under the care of one of the customers who was in the café that night, Natsuno Kirihime. Through some kind of connection, Kirihime can hear Kazuhito's thoughts as a dog. Unfortunately for Kazuhito, Kirihime has a bit of a sadistic personality and a thing for scissors.

Kazuhito's favorite novelist, who is actually really sadistic. Her pen name is "Akiyama Shinobu." She is 20 years old, a best-selling novelist; she lives alone in her studio type apartment, loves contact sports, is always wearing black and is really bad at being kind to animals and people. She always carries scissors (which she named "HasaJiro") with her that she uses either for self-defense or to make people see her point. But most of the time she uses it to punish Kazuhito when he says something she doesn't like or when she feels like it. For some reason, she is able to read Kazuhito's mind, much to his annoyance, because he isn't able to keep any secrets from her, including his sexual fantasies. She's pretty much insecure about her small breast size. It is also hinted that she likes Kazuhito.

He was once a middle schooler with a passion for reading and especially for Shinobu Akiyama's books. He got killed by a crazy gunman while protecting a girl (who he didn't know, named Shinobu Akiyama) in a cafe robbery. Regretting to unable to read Shinobu Akiyama's latest novel and having the desire to live, he was resurrected as a dachshund much to his surprise. Kirihime would refer to him as: Mongrel, Mutt or Dog, but it was Yayoi who gave him the name "Kuro." (Source: Animefreak forums)
