This series had a brief revival a couple of months ago in Dragon Age with a one-shot and sample CD along with the sale of a drama CD. The artwork is great, character design is pretty, but the story is a little lacking. The volume has many short chapters. Between each chapter is two pages of text where Yaeka and Sena have a conversation and introduce other characters in the series (Yaeka's friends who attend the same school, but study veterinary elsewhere). The problem is, most of the characters introduced don't show up in the manga until the very last chapter and don't really have a story. Maybe in next volume. The text pages also have some tips about animals and some background info about the story.

Bonus comes with a color page, the text pages mentioned above, and an afterward.
