Throws a fic wip at you based on this post

"Ourson nods. A creature that makes fluid in its own lungs may not sound like something that would survive but most creatures has some construction oversight when you look under the hood. He watches his partners entire body shutter as it breathes, its back hitting the wall on the exhale in what Ourson think might be exhaustion. Whatever counts for exhaustion in something like Antoine.

He doesn’t quite know why Antoine insists on the facade of humanity when he isn’t even good at it. Ourson had even told him once when he’s walked into the mens bathroom to find his partner hunched over the sink staring into the wall spanning mirror. It was hard to see in the dark, at first he had worried it was plucking out its own eye, then as he got closer there was a wet sound, then porcelain clattering as something hard fell into the sink, then another. Ourson couldn’t make it out at first, the sink was the same shade.

Antoine had all but jump on him, its hands on his face and jaw, working his muzzle open. Its finger poked at his canines and drew blood. “I thought so,” Antoine said, “I made too many.”

That had been a few months ago. Ourson still wasn’t sure how to explain that humans don’t have a second set of teeth like he had, and that maybe Antoine might wanna pull those out too if he wants to pretend to be one, but the blood left behind in the first round had unnerved the staff. HR has already set out a newsletter."

Mais je veux retenir cette année que Jean-Luc était le seul à pouvoir me faire rire aux larmes si facilement....

Alors quelques photos de lui, amusantes ou décalées !

Dans mon ancien appart à Douai, en 1996. Qu'est-ce qu'on ne ferait pas avec une ceinture lombaire !

Dog Signal Episode 20 Review + Final Thoughts - His Most Important Family In The World

The finale of Dog Signal is here and I am crying. Not only am I shedding tears from the emotional moments, but also from the fact the show ended. I did not expect this super obscure anime to become an instant top 10 anime of all time for me, but it did. I’m amazed.

Miyu reflects on his behavior towards Singe. He tells Niwa that he hated how his mother treated him in his childhood, yet he did the same thing with his dog. He also tells him that he worked hard for his family, but given that he was the breadwinner of his family, he felt like he had no purpose for existing until he met Singe. I feel really bad for Miyu because he was a victim of parentification. It also makes me hate his mom a lot too. Like, the audacity of her going to Proud Dog and attempting to bribe and demand Niwa into raising Miyu’s salary so that he could bring some home. What’s crazy is that this actually does happen in real life, especially in Asian culture. Sometimes, there are parents out there that will go to their adult child’s workplace and demand to give them a raise or better treatment. While some do it for their child’s benefit, some do it for their own selfish intentions. I’m glad that Niwa didn’t back down and chased her out with his bluntness. He may be cold and blunt, but at least he’s doing a good job of trying to get Miyu to stand on his own two feet and not coddle him all the time. He’s like a strict older brother towards him. Ritsuka says it best with how he’s always doing things for others, but never himself—as if he always puts himself last in order to appease others.

The fact that Miyu realizes his mistakes and goes to see Singe was super emotional (You can watch the clip by clicking the link). He believed he betrayed Singe, but when Niwa showed him that his dog is waiting for him, he rushed out and reunited with him. The way the opening song started playing during that moment made me cry. I am a huge sucker for dog stories and this is no exception. The way Singe still loves Miyu despite making him upset with his sudden change in behavior shows how unconditional a dog’s love is. I love that Singe is the reason why Miyu feels like he has purpose now. He starts from zero as he decides to become a dog training student once again. The ending seems to state that he’s both a dog trainer and a student. It’s nice that some clients like Eguchi, Miyake and Kadota want Miyu to still be an intern dog trainer as they think he’s a valuable asset. He is! If not for Miyu, Niwa wouldn’t get customers. Miyu is very important to Proud Dog!

The post-credit ending was super sweet. Since the manga is still on-going, the author Saya Miyauchi said on her Twitter that she wrote an anime-original ending, which is this. I do like seeing most of the Proud Dog clients gathering to go to the dog park accompanied by Ritsuka and Ema. We also see Shikishima and her dog Shizu passing by as well as Oyamada with Ribbon at the vet with Dr. Kubo. It’s so nice to see everyone having a fun time with their dogs. There’s also a little boy who’s interested in dogs but never touched one. I think he’s a manga character who appears later on, but I think the author inserted him into this ending for the heck of it. Hey, more dog lovers means more cuteness.

Final Thoughts

It’s unfortunate that this anime ended in 20 episodes, but it was the best thing I’ve watched in a long time. Like I said, it’s seriously a Top 10 anime of all time for me. Perhaps I’m just biased due to me being a dog lover.

The story is really good as it’s a simple one about bonding with an abandoned dog, but it’s also learning more about why dogs behave this way and why it’s mainly the owners’ fault for doing so. It’s very educational as it explains about dog behavior and actions very thoroughly. Since Miyauchi was originally a dog groomer before becoming a manga author, I can tell her knowledge for dog training is genuine. She even went out of her way to write her story in a way that the dogs actually behave like dogs and not personified versions usually seen in fictional media.

The characters are great. Miyu is a great protagonist as he is the inexperienced guy learning from the expert Niwa. He learns about all sorts of issues dogs can have when with problematic owners. Despite that, they have their own personalities and don’t feel too one-note. Ritsuka and Dr. Kubo are also good characters in their own right as they care about dogs and have unique personalities. All the clients and their dogs are very interesting because they all have names and different personalities as well as different dog breeds. I think that each issue each client brings is super interesting as it’s not always the same issue.

I think the opening and endings were adorable as heck. The dogs in the ending are actually the author’s. Her smaller poodle passed away last year, unfortunately, but she still has her standard poodle. They show up often on her social media account. The songs are addicting. I quite like listening to the opening whenever it starts!

The voice acting was superb! They got a cast of amazing voice actors from the main cast to the guest cast! I loved Suzumura’s performance in Episode 7 where he was going off on Fujiwara. Kensho Ono as Miyu was perfect as he did a great job of doing the boisterous side and the sweet sides. Yuko Kaida as Ritsuka was amazing, especially during Episode 17. I personally enjoyed KENN’s performance as Dr. Kubo because his debut episode made his character so kooky that it was hilarious. I do have to applaud the voice actors for the dogs! Anna Mugiho and Kenichiro Matsuda did amazing jobs as Singe and Ourson and other dogs in the show! I love that they actually make dog noises and not use the onomatopoeia words.

I think the biggest issue of this anime is the animation. Studio Fugaku is a relatively new studio and Dog Signal is one of their first anime adaptations. Some scenes in some episodes look rather off-putting, but I feel like it’s more budget issues? Despite the gripes, they did a good job with animating the dogs and the characters’ expressions.

Overall, this anime is super underrated and if I am able to grab a hold of the manga, I’ll buy the manga too. I think that anyone who likes dogs should give this a chance as it’s a lot better than you’d expect. It’s definitely a 9/10 anime for me.
