I cried so many times whilst reading this, so it's an impossible thought not to write a review. I have never cried so emotionally as I did when reading Inu-bu. I love dogs, so my opinion may be ever so slightly biased in that light.
The story of Inu-bu takes you away with a young man who wants to save the homeless neighborhood dogs. A lot of events that he can't help happens, keeping the series realistic with the day to day problems of backyard breeding, not neutering your pets, abandonment, neglect and difficulties to find a forever home. I felt sympathy, anger, sadness, joy and

everything in between as the plot progressed. The passion of the characters really showed through, they really love dogs and what they do. The series teaches a lot of important lessons about pet ownership. Truly focuses on dogs, as the cover promises.
The art was nice, easy on the eye. The dogs were easily recognizable and well done. Sometimes I confused the two main characters for a second.
Main characters were passionate, infecting everyone with their stubbornness on the way. The side characters also possessed variety, and realistically portrayed some of the problems pet owners have. I enjoyed the 'antagonists', if I should even call them that, too, for they did their job to upset me greatly.
Overall, I enjoyed each book regardless of the soul twisting agony some scenes caused in me. I recommend this series to everyone with a love for dogs, but perhaps not for the most faint of heart. The topics get rather intense from time to time.
