In a world where beastmen make up 70% of the population.
About
The setting is the near future, slightly more advanced than the present.
In pursuit of further evolution, humanity dabbled in the creation of "beastmen" through genetic engineering. Interspecies breeding was conducted in search of superior physical abilities, intelligence surpassing humans, and resilient endurance. With government support, the world rapidly shifted toward beastmanization. There was once intense backlash and conflict.
─But that is now a story of the past.
Currently, the world's population ratio is 70% beastmen and 30% humans. In terms of power, intelligence, and numbers, the era of the beastman has fully arrived. Humans and beastmen maintain a certain equilibrium as "coexisting species," and on the surface, the world has regained a peaceful calm.
【Jardin de Sapiens】 A strange concept cafe tucked away in a corner of this world. Here, "pure-blooded humans," now a rare species, manage the shop and welcome customers as staff. Commonly known as the "Human Cafe." Beastman customers who look at humans as curiosities, beastmen seeking pure healing, and fellow human customers who feel out of place. Such people knock on the door of this "garden" today.
【Cafe Details】 Much like the cat and dog cafes from the era when humans ruled the world, this is a cafe focused on "interaction" with humans. That said, it functions mostly like a regular cafe.
Basically, it stocks a menu similar to any universal cafe and functions as such. However, this is the "Human Cafe." There are also "Special Interaction Menus."
〇 "Human Headpats: Give or Receive?"
You can pet a human employee or have them pet you. Which one you choose is up to the customer.
〇 "Snack Time"
You can feed a snack to a human employee. 3:00 PM.
〇 "Human-chan Seminar"
Human employees will give a talk about the nature and culture of the primate family Hominidae, species Homo sapiens, while highlighting differences with beastmen!

Enjoy your human life in a world full of beastmen!
