On a rainy afternoon, a male high school student awakens freezing on the streets with no memory of how he got there. His classmate and crush, Karen Inukai, finds him and takes him back to her home where, to his surprise, she starts to undress. She seems intent on bathing with him, though he has no idea why. When she holds him once more, he catches a glimpse of himself in the mirror—discovering that he has turned into a dog! Inukai adopts the puppy and names him Pochita. Now, he must adjust to life as a dog and figure out how to get out of this strange predicament. But while he mulls over an escape plan, Pochita sees a whole new side to Inukai that he never saw at school. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

This anime is levels of degeneracy beyond comprehension. My ancestors are looking down on me ashamed and appalled, and yours are too. In our quest to find out if we can, we forgot to stop and ask ourselves if we should. We have past the point of no return. No amount of repenting and prayer can save us from this absolute sin, so do not even bother. Even if we could be save, should we? Would we deserve to be save after this? No, probably not. The human race will not be forgiven for this, May God have mercy on our souls.....10/10 would recommend

On the day of the Final Judgment, when we all stand before God Almighty, He will show all mankind this anime on a big screen. Every human who ever lived will be there to see it. In eternity, where there is no time, all of those who did not watch this will assimilate it fully in what seems like an instant. Then the screaming will begin. Pleading and begging, the human souls will desperately try to justify the existence of this atrocity and will fail. The ground will split open and we will fall into the dark abyss, rejected and forsaken by God. ------------------ I started watchingthis thinking it would be an isekai-type anime. "What would life be like if you turned into a dog, retaining your memories of human life, and got adopted by your hot classmate crush?" doesn't sound so bad, right? Well... let's just say, if you like anime for the plot, better look elsewhere. Here, we only have "plot". Even the characters themselves have zero depth, they only exist to be lewded by the dog protagonist. If these people actually existed in real life, they would be in padded cells. The episodes only have 12 minutes each, not counting the OP and ED which take a large chunk out of that — and are bad and annoying. I can't even recommend this to ecchi lovers, but only a particular branch of that group: those who are into zoophilia/bestiality. If you are in this category, this anime is made for you. Then again, you might wanna read the manga instead, since the anime is apparently tamer in that regard: some scenes are cut or skipped entirely. For everyone else — the functional members of society — avoid this.
Alright boys, let's buckle up and put on our big boy pants and ready ourselves to watch an anime about the experience of doge x 2D anime girl. What can go wrong? ....... I've seen both the anime and the manga and never before in my life I had to ask myself, "What the fuck am I watching?" while reading or watching an anime. This shows screams "DEGENERACY" at you for every single second you find yourself watching it. Heck, this "anime" has ventured way too far into the hentai category. I'm surprised it isn't hentai. Every 5 minutes I had to recite "O Lord, repent mefor my sins" while reading the manga to prevent my brain cells from spontaneous combustion. Overall, very mixed reviews on this abomination. Cool and original idea I guess albeit executed horrendously. I mean, it has cute characters so yay? Plot is inconsistent, hard to follow, and with so many sinkholes attached that I assure you cannot understand the anime until you read the manga. Characters are very bland. This show and manga focuses too much on finding ways to make the general male audience get an unpleasant feeling in their pants and immediately look down between their crotch, and it unironically works. Now that's over, good luck watching this thing. If you're tired of the general anime or hentai in this case give it try. May God have mercy on the author and production team of this abomination. Amen.
This anime is esssentially bringing one consensus message: WHAT THE HELL WERE THEY THINKING of making this show and bringing to the masses? In reference, see HIDIVE's "glorious" (sic) synopsis: They say every dog has his day. That’s especially true for our protagonist, who was just turned into a dog and now lives every day under the care of his crush, Inukai-san! She happily dotes on her new companion, and while he wants to return to his human form someday, there’s something wonderful about being cared for by the person he loves. Now that's a decription, if you're feeling at the very least dodgy-doggy with aleash on your neck, living and breathing the life of an entity who lives to see the dream of girls being innocently vulnerable towards you, saying "This is Heaven!". Never have I seen such polarizing works that earn the ire of the world in unison and in all of existence, not since The Promised Neverland's sequel season that completely abolished any hopes for the anime series as a whole. And this is what mangaka Itsutsuse chooses to give us: Inu ni Nattara Suki na Hito ni Hirowareta. a.k.a. My Life as Inukai-san's Dog., the season's most infamous adaptation that's nothing more than an oversized fetish of a dog smut manga. Jesus Christ, now I'm telling y'all: I don't know what the hell were they thinking when making the anime. Now I know why people are calling this the rip-off Chainsaw Man, because the dog is literally named Pochita. I swear that I'm not kidding. He is helmed by 3 girls who float around his long belly boat: firstly, his owner the yandere Karen Inukai, whom before the mysterious transformation into a dog, was his crush, and being a dog is the next best thing of not resisting the charm of living the life as her dog of interest when she notices him as a stray dog on the street, only to feed it with her immense love and skinship. Secondly, the scaredy-dog Mike Nekotani of Inukai's childhood friend and Pochita's neighbour fame, which I actually find her scenes somewhat darn plain ecchi glorified, but decent and best. Thirdly, last but not least, is the legit childhood friend of Usagi Tsukishiro, with her being the same "girl teases boy because she likes him" trope, to the point of feelings thrown out for obsession. Personally, out of the 3, Nekotani is the one that I can click with, she's definitely the best of the worst of the entire show. Being a somewhat relatively new studio, this is studio Quad's 2nd project, albeit a half-episode run format. And then I can tell you that like the first show it produced (Kaijin Kaihatsu-bu no Kuroitsu-san a.k.a Miss Kuroitsu from the Monster Development Department), it turned out mediocre to decent. But of course, for Inukai-san's case that it just looks like no effort was being done here, with the ecchi scenes amplified, because doggo or not, this is pretty much smut material, and like that genre itself filled with so much shit quality, I'm not surprised that it's just legit poop. EVen the OST is somewhat meh. The character VAs' OP was acually both catchy and an entertaining song to boot, especially with the end-chorus portion. The EDs of various girls' versions, however, is just like mish-mashing anime and real-life counterparts, which I would praise the effort given, but this is not needed, really. Yikes, if you're in for some of the most scantily clad smut material turned into anime, this is probably it. And once you've seen this, there is no going back of washing off that taintedness from your ears and eyes. This shouldn't be allowed to exist, yet it does.
This has got to be the worst piece of media I ever consumed. The characters are shallow as frick (avoiding swearing since I don't want this to be taken down), the protagonist makes me extremely furious and the writing is a thousand times worse than any other Harem Comedy I've ever watched. Only watch this bullcrap if you have some sort of mistress/dog fetish, then you're gonna get fed well with this one. Otherwise stay the frick away from this, it's incredibly uncomfortable to watch and the writing of the protagonist seems to be suffering here the most. You can't sympathize with that loser in any shapeor form, because in one moment he will say "I won't look at these t*tties because I'm just a dog and that's messed up" and then we get a zoom-in shot of those said bags. He keeps fricking up everything and the only interesting thing about him are his memory flashbacks. That is the ONLY interesting thing about this anime. Getting the bits of info on HOW and WHY he turned/was turned into a dog. Those flashbacks happen from time to time but it's not worth watching the whole thing, ESPECIALLY because you'd have to read the manga to figure out, which is STILL on-going. Don't do this to yourselves, I beg of you. Spare your last few brain cells and watch something other trashy bs that AT LEAST has SOME form of dignity left and some mediocre writing. Cuz this is just migraine for your entire body. None of the characters are likable and most are even dislikable. Nekotani is the ONLY character with common sense left and does NOT try to have s*x with a DOG. Unlike everyone else. Pinkie here has a crush on the dog cuz it reminds her of her actual human crush (ok? weird) and ice queen is #lonely #misunderstood #nofriends and is the crush of our main character (before and after he was turned into a dog). And, for some reason, ice queen only ever shows emotion when she's with her dog, in this case our protagonist. But no, it's not all innocent like a comfort pet or something, she ACTIVELY M*STURB*TES with her DOG. SHE IS DOWN FRICKING BAD FOR DOGS. AND THE THOUGHT OF THE DOG BEING HUMAN (Episode 12) TURNS HER OFF. I honestly can't feel bad for this woman (is she even of age?) as she's being established as this sweet girl with a dog fetish but then we learn that she's actually cold to every other living being on this planet, actively goes out of everyone's way because her butt does NOT want to interact with any human, she just wants her t*ts sucked by her pet dog. Said pet dog has no shame and his mf'ing tail is wagging at every suggestive moment. Bro won't stop trying to convince us that he isn't down bad for any of the chicks but in reality he is horrendously down bad. This part of his character, his dishonesty, is what makes him so dislikable. He would, ACTUALLY, be more enjoyable if he just embraced his new fetish life sometimes and says sh*t like "ngl this puss is bussin'" (the formulation is obviosuly a joke but you get the point) but instead he plays the victim the ENTIRE. FRICKING. TIME. "ugghh no i dont wanna do this wah wah wah oh no she put me up her skirt again what am i gonna do oh no >////<" SHUT UP SHUT UPPP I have never been this mad at the writing of a character or this uncomfortable watching an anime and I've watched sh*t like Redo of a Healer. Which was, if you even care, interesting for me and didn't make me want to k*ll myself because there the protagonist acknowledges himself being a bad person (well actually he thinks hes the good guy and that revenge is good and sexy asf but yk what i actually mean is bro is self-aware). This is more of a rant than a review so please don't send a bomb to my location. Thank you for reading and stay away from this abomination for all eternity
