My Life as Inukai-san’s Dog gets a very bizarre ending according to fans
The image in question from the end of the My Life as Inukai-san’s Dog manga shows our protagonist named Karen lying face down on her bed. The character wears her blouse open, revealing her “charms”, we can even notice how her underwear is down to the level of her thighs while her skin shows a few drops of sweat.
Such a seductive image is wrapped in a youthful atmosphere, as we notice the comfort that Karen radiates by being in her own room, we notice the closet, the curtains and some books in the background. So far so good, isn’t it? And we could overlook this whole scene, except for one small detail. The protagonist of My Life as Inukai-san’s Dog, while showing us her charms, holds her dog’s paw.
What we observe here is a very interesting lake and a bold move on the part of the author, and that is that Karen is looking straight ahead in such a way that she seems to be looking at you and talking to you, which makes this moment all the more strange. Karen looks with a flirtatious and panting expression, where her blushing cheekbones highlight the brightness of her gaze, while she looks at us and holds her puppy’s paw she says the following words “Next time be a human… Okay?”, then follows a caption that indicates that this is the end of the manga.
