Heterogenia Linguistico, Vol. 1
Heterogenia Linguistico, Vol. 1: An Introduction to Interspecies Linguistics | Salt Seno
5 posts | 4 read | 3 to read
When his mentor is injured, novice linguist Hakaba is appointed to take over the professor's research in the Netherworld! Though Hakaba has studied the languages of werewolves, lizardpeople, and other Netherworld races from afar, this will be his first field experience coming face-to-face with those so many of his fellow humans have dubbed "monsters." Guided by Susuki, the professor's half-werewolf daughter (?!), Hakaba begins his quest for a greater understanding of the ways people of the Netherworld communicate-even if it does get a bit...hairy at times...!

I like the idea of the story, Hakaba studies the languages of the Netherworld, so werewolves, lizardfolk & so on, but I think the execution is lacking for me. It‘s a series of small episodic chapters that sometimes feel like a cohesive story and sometimes not. I also spend a lot of time being just as confused as Hakaba because not everything the creatures say is translated because he doesn‘t know, which is interesting but sometimes pulls me out.

This is unlike any other manga I have ever read. It‘s about a girl who goes to the neitherworld take the place of her professor and continue the exploration and communication with native anthropomorphic species. The book is mainly about trying to understand each other, both in language and customs. This does make the book a bit dry, and slow paced, but still a very interesting read. I would pick up book 2 to figure out what happens next.

For a manga it was pretty slow paced, but the author builds lovely cultures that you get to explore with “Teacher.” I am quite fond of wet-legs. #lmpbc #groupm #manga

wisherwishinguponastar @Shadowfat @Jadams1776 @LibrarianRyan Thanks, guys! I am not overly concerned. Please don‘t rush anything. I just saw my USPS receipt and thought, “crap!” I had a lot of fun reading manga with everyone. Once I catch-up on my current titles I am going to need to pick up some of the series we started! 2y
