This article or section is about Monstergirls (or a monster that is frequently depicted as a Monstergirl), something that /tg/ widely considers to be the purest form of awesome. Expect PROMOTIONS! and /d/elight in equal measure, often with drawfaggotry or writefaggotry to match.
It ain't called "everyday life" for nothin'!

Daily Life With Monstergirl, also called "Monster Musume no Iru Nichijou" or just plain "Monster Musume", is an ecchi (playfully erotic, no actual smut) harem romantic-comedy manga themed around monstergirls. Created by Inui Takemaru (who goes by the pen name Okayado), the series began with his more hentai-flavored "My Life with Monstergirls" oneshot doujins and the similarly lewd "Monstergirl Report" series.

Origin of many /tg/ memes, the primary of which is images of Monstergirls with various facial expressions stating what kind of genitals their race has (funny in context).


My Life With Monstergirls

The original comics featured several identical young men (later revealed to be septuplet brothers), each in a relationship with a type of Monstergirl; Centaur, Dullahan (a kind of Irish psychopomp that carries its own severed head), Slime, Lamia, Harpy, Arachne, Mermaid, and Minotaur). None of these men or the Monsters are named.


Monstergirl Report

After the immense popularity of the previous comics, the creator went on to make a sequel series called Monstergirl Report which focuses on a single character, known as Mr. Smith, and his adventures through the Monstergirl world, while sex with every kind of Monstergirl FOR SCIENCE! The differences between the really real world and the world of Monstergirl report are never fully explained, as apparently humans are aware these races existed to an extent, but these girls are still exotic and relatively unknown to moderity, and yet some races (like Harpy and Lamia) have no males and could only have reproduced with human males. Only very recently have the "two worlds" begun to organize diplomatic relations; it is unknown whether these monstergirls are literally coming from somewhere off-Earth or not. Not that it really matters, but /tg/ is nothing if not poised to over-think everything. Notable from this series is it must exist as a prequel of sorts to the others, since Mr. Smith actually creates Slimegirls out of ordinary garden pest slimes which even by the next work are still largely an unknown to the world at large and not covered (or protected) by laws regarding monsterfolk.

Everyday Life With Monstergirls

This is the most recent of the Okayado comics, and the first to be made into a fully-fledged manga! In the summer of 2015 is was adapted into an anime (to literally everyone's surprise). It features a man whose name is so forgettable that everyone calls him pet names (aka "Darling") or just assumes he doesn't have one, who lives in a world where various monster races are beginning to coexist alongside humans (for the curious among you, his real name is Kimihito, loosely translated as "you person", probably as another jab at how insignificant and ordinary he is). Due to an exchange program (and a trollzy incompetent government worker tnamed Ms. Smith hat may or may not be related to Mr. Smith) he finds himself living with a Lamia that just so happens to be in love with him. Unfortunately, strict rules regarding inter-species relationships prevent anything coming from this one-sided attraction due to serious legal consequences. After the appearance of various other monstergirls he is forced compelled to similarly adopt, harem anime shenanigans ensue. In addition to the aforementioned Lamia, our hero's harem so far includes a Harpy, a Centaur, an Arachne, a Slime, a Mermaid, and a Dullahan. A large number of other monstergirls also appear, acting as as minor supporting characters, in particular Ms. Smith's police/paramilitary team made up of a Zombie, a Doppleganger, an Ogre, and a Cyclops who handle incidents involving violence caused by monsters.

Notably for the genre, it includes monster men as well as the traditional monstergirls, and not all of them are ugly as sin (with a humorous version of Mermaids where fish-bottom Mermen are popular with humans, while a second Mermen ethnic group of human-bottom fishheads are resigned to second-class in interspecies romance). The manga actually does a bang-up job of investigating the various quirks of monstergirl biology. Points to Okayado for pandering to the over-analyzing fa/tg/uys he knows will be reading (and now watching).

12 Beast

Another work by the same creator, shares the style and Monsterfolk of the other series. Not specified to be an alternate universe (although never referring to any other canon), in the distant past a human warrior named Eita managed to unite armies of Monstergirls under his command to liberate the world from evil. Essentially a combination of Total War and Monster Musume.

As A Tabletop Game

Currently no tabletop game exists of Life With Monstergirls (although a vidya is in production), although there is talk on /tg/ of a modification of the Big Eyes, Small Mouth system and a statting of the characters to make it a fully playable game. This coincides with the previews for the Life With Monstergirls licensed merchandise which includes chibi figures of the main cast which resemble the miniatures from Super Dungeon Explore and Krosmaster. Further threads on the subject have involved Maid RPG as a possibility as well.
