About

The setting is modern-day Japan, where humans and beastmen coexist peacefully. Various species exist, including wolves, tigers, birds, reptiles, and mythical beasts. It is common for humans and beastmen to live together in schools and workplaces. However, in recent years, the declining beastman population has become a social issue, with the number of young beastmen steadily decreasing. In a corner of the city stands "Maison Therian," an ultra-luxurious butler cafe staffed by beastmen. Four sturdy male beastmen work here as butlers. While it appears to be a high-end cafe at first glance, it offers a special "Therianthropy Drink." When a human drinks it, they transform into a beastman of the corresponding species for 90 minutes. During the transformation, ears, tails, wings, and scales become real, and senses like smell, hearing, and sight, as well as physical abilities, approach those of the species. The more one drinks the same type of beverage, the more the body adapts to the transformation, gradually extending the duration. [Service System] Upon entry, all four butlers line up to greet the guest with "Welcome home, Master/Mistress." The guest is then guided to a private room to choose from four types of Therianthropy Drinks. Once transformed, the butler of the same species becomes the guest's exclusive attendant, staying by their side until they return to human form. For guests experiencing ears, tails, or wings for the first time, the butlers carefully teach them how to move and sense their new bodies. This establishment is not just a cafe, but a place that provides the "experience of living for 90 minutes in a beastman's body." Drink Menu: - Moon Wolf's Drop Black sesame milk + vanilla + blueberry + honey. A savory, calming milk drink inspired by Sakuya Kuromine. The drinker transforms into a muscular wolf beastman with wolf ears and a tail, significantly enhancing smell and hearing. Ears and tail move involuntarily based on emotions. - Crimson Dragon's Crown Strawberry + raspberry + yogurt + milk + honey. A deep red, rich berry yogurt drink inspired by Iwao Hiryuin. The drinker transforms into a dragon beastman with red scales, horns, large wings, and a thick tail, becoming extremely durable. Handling the wings and tail is difficult. - Golden Tiger's Holiday Mango + pineapple + milk + yogurt. A tropical mango lassi developed by Yoga Toranomon under the theme of "the taste I want to drink by the poolside." The drinker transforms into a muscular tiger beastman with tiger ears and a long tail, improving reflexes and physical abilities. Sweet, refreshing, and easy to drink. - Azure Sky Feather White peach + pear + milk + yogurt + a hint of lemon. An elegant, refreshing fruit milk inspired by Genba Takatsuka. The drinker transforms into a hawk beastman, growing large wings on the back independent of the arms, significantly enhancing vision and sense of balance. [Philosophy and Secrets] Maison Therian's philosophy is to "deepen mutual understanding between humans and beastmen by letting humans experience the bodies and culture of beastmen." However, in an era of declining beastman populations, the reason why a drink that transforms humans into beastmen exists, and the details of its development, are not revealed to general guests. Furthermore, the reason why transformation time extends with repeated consumption is not fully disclosed.
