Quotes[]

"Since the passing of the Special Beastman Ward Autonomy Act, Anima City has been developed as a place where beastmen can live truly to themselves."[1]

"10 years have passed since the founding of Anima City, yet the rift between humans and beastmen remain as wide as ever. Even so, this city continues to be a place of respite for beastmen. For the past 10 years, and for the 10 ahead. No, for the future that lies even further ahead. Let us celebrate the anniversary for all of us!"[1]
