Butareba -The Story of a Man Turned into a Pig-


After eating raw pig liver, an otaku wakes up in another world as a pig. He is found by a girl named Jess who happens to be a Yethma. Yethma have the unique ability to communicate telepathically. Jess uses this power to communicate with pig. He learns that if he visits the king he may be able to turn human again. Jess then tells him that she is actually planning on heading there herself. While they want to go together, this trip is not without its troubles. Yethma hunters are constantly looking for Yethma's headed for the capital because of how much money they can get from selling them and their belongings. With Pig's intelligence and Jess's abilities will they be able to get the happy ending they desire?

Butareba was actually better than I was expecting. I originally watched this because I had heard that it was similar to Reborn as a Vending Machine, I Now Wander the Dungeon. While it does have some similarities it is more similar to My Life as Inukai-san's Dog if you took out all the ecchi scenes. There is only one ecchi scene in episode 11 where Jess and Pig take a bath together. The language stays pretty clean as well. The only really dirty thing in this anime are the comments made by pig. All in all I would say it is worth a watch if you are looking for an Isekai anime that is different from the norm.
