Although the stories are fairly different, they both have a focus around fighting cats. Free Collars Kingdom features cats who have declared their independence from humans who have abandoned them. The characters are portrayed as humans with cat ears and tails, and seem to be seen this way by one another, however to the humans in the story they are just normal cats. Gakuen Sousei Nekoten! features cats and humans who fight as partners to defeat an enemy. The cats are portrayed as normal cats, but each have a special ability with their human partner, which allows them to transform in certain ways to help them fight. 

While the plot of these two series is very different, I feel that the atmosphere they create is similar. In both there is a mesh of ‘cute’ and almost ‘haunting’ imagery. In fact, Laon features bold line-work and high-contrast art similar to Iwahara’s work. Both involve a bit of magic and otherworldly creatures, fast-pacing, plenty of fun action scenes, and a plot that escalates into a final-boss battle on a “fate of the world” scale. With both series under 10 volumes they make great short reads. 

Both have cutesy artworks, school setting, supernatural involvement and monster fighting; fox monsters in fact.
