For an 11-year-old, Yuzu's got a lot on her plate. When her mom gets sick, Yuzu goes to live with her uncle who runs the local animal hospital. She used to be scared of animals, but now she knows each patient is a fluffy friend in the making!
This time, Yuzu learns about hardworking service dogs, rabbit care, the wonderful world of adoption, and the power pets have to bring families together.
Auch vom 2. Band der Reihe bin ich begeistert. Die Geschichten sind sehr schön gestaltet und machen auf vieles aufmerksam. Dies auf eine einfache und direkt Weise. Vor allem die Geschichte um das ausgesetzte Kätzchen finde ich mega wichtig! Auf eine sehr direkte und einfache Weise zeigt die Künstlerin auf, dass Haustiere nicht nur zum Streicheln da sind. Daneben sind die Zeichnungen sehr gelungen und ich mag diese Reihe auch deshalb sehr. Ist sehr zu empfehlen 😊
Why does this series keep making me cry. OMG. Every time I thought I would be strong and would not cry, tears were just running down. This is such a great series.
Yuzu is continuing to help her Uncle at his vet clinic. In this collection of stories a guide dog who is mistreated by mean people (not the owner) comes in, another girl from school comes in with her dog who has all sorts of mysterious ailments, Yuzu and another girl at school have to learn how to take care of and understand the rabbits, and a scrawny little kitten needs a forever home.
These are cute little stories that feature real issues pets can experience. It's educational for animal lovers in making them more animal smart, and it's cute. Definitely recommended for animal lovers and those looking for kid-friendly manga.
Notes on content: No language issues or sexual content. The guide dog story brings awareness to how people really do abuse these well trained dogs because they won't react even when severely hurt. The one in this book has cigarette burns (not gory or anything). No animals die in this book.
Pretty much all of the reviews for this series is going to be the same sort of statements.
1. It was good. 2. This makes me cry/tear up! 3. I learn a lot.
With this volume, we see a service dog, rabbits, pet adoption, and when a dog feels like their family drifting apart. The one thing that I wish this series does is have more continuity, meaning we see some previous characters making regular appearances. The only two characters that appear regularly is Yuzu (of course) and her Uncle with some minor appearances from her Mom.
Verdict: This is a cute upper elementary/lower middle school manga!
Yuzu is scared of animals but has been learning how to take care of them with her uncle the vet. In this volume she handles caring for Rabbits at her school, an abandoned cat needing lots of care for recovery, service dogs and how they can be abused, and finally a family dog acting out to bring a family back to together. Not a light hearted series to say the least, but all real world issues so kudos for that.
Still not sure how I feel about this series as it keeps making me cry. Giving it another volume and if I keep crying I am calling it quits.
For some reason I'm compelled to call this Yuzu The Pet Detective. This is a great manga for anyone who loves animals. Aimed at kids but very heartfelt stories that anyone can enjoy. This one deals with animal abuse, overcoming fear of animals, adoption and am awesome Corgi that saves a family. ^_^ Must bow down to Sora.... Must obey Sora...
This volume wasn’t as bad as the first for sadness, though I did shed a few tears (but I’m a crier). I really loved the messages in the stories here, especially the story with the guide dog and abandoned cat.
This series is so sweet, and perfect for younger readers who want to learn about caring for animals. I would recommend this one for all ages, as it is just too sweet!
Awww! Why do I keep reading this series! I just have to know more about every adventure! 😭 I truly do enjoy these books though. My favorite story was the one about CHACHA. ♥️
Un 2ème Tome dans la lignée du 1er. On prend les mêmes ingrédients et on recommence... et ça marche ! C'est toujours aussi choupy, les dessins sont mignons et les histoires très intéressantes avec des thèmes de plus en plus importants je trouve. On aborde notamment le fait qu'un animal demande qu'on s'en occupe et que c'est une responsabilité. A mettre entre les mains de tous les enfants pour leur expliquer des choses passionnantes sur les animaux de façon très agréable. J'ai beaucoup aimé !
J'ai adoré ce tome 2 que j'ai trouvé plus approfondi, plus humain et plus tourné sur la documentation concernant les animaux. Personnellement, j'y ai appris des choses.
