School entrance ceremonies! All signs of the new season.
Come on, you guys!
You're all a bunch of animals!
Humans are the most skilled throwers of all mammals
Oh, crap!
Hey!
All right, brats...
Seton Academy Teacher Terano-sensei Tyrannosaurus Rex
Line up, or I'll eat every last one of you!
Now, the headmaster would like to address all the new students.
Headmaster, if you please.
Well, everyone, today is—
Seton Academy Headmaster Amano-sensei Anomalocaris
Headmaster!
W-Water! Water!
Ow!
You, child...
Water... Please fetch some water!
Why?!
Don't fetch me! I asked you to fetch water!
This is why I can't stand animals.
No! Stop!
Oh, I'm done for!
Join the Pack!
Seton Academy
Unnatural interspecies relations are strictly forbidden!!

Seton Academy Record 1 Ranka the Wolf Boss
Chow time!
Animal Weaknesses
His name is Mazama Jin.
He's a new first-year here at Seton Academy.
He is a primate of the species Homo sapiens,
or in other words, a human.
I hope all you stupid animals go extinct!
He hates animals with a passion.
Cafeteria
Hurry it up!
You're holding up the line!
Raw Meat
Grass
Bugs
Raw Fish

Meal Tickets
Excuse me.
Yep?
Dressing on the grass, please.
Raw Meat
Grass
If you don't have any, at least put salt on it.
And... please cook the meat!
Cook it? Why?
Damn it!
I'll just try to tuck myself away in a corner.
It's that dumb dog from the entrance ceremony!
It is extremely dangerous to carelessly approach an animal that is eating.
Carnivores, in particular. If they think their prey is about to be stolen...
They will become very threatening.
The best course of action is not to panic and run away,
but to avert your eyes, expressing that you don't want to fight.
This calms them down.
But they will still be wary as long as you're nearby,
Stare...
Stare
so the fastest way to make peace is...
Here.
This wins them over instantly!
Stupid animal...
I'm gonna...
let you join my pack!
Huh?
I'm Ranka the wolf, boss of the proud wolf clan!
I'll show you to my territory! Follow me!
Hey, hey, hey! Aren't you happy?
Huh? Huh? Huh? You can join my pack!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey!
Canines rely on their sense of smell to survive,
so when presented with any object, they have to sniff it.
Go!
Now's my chance to—
May I sit next to you?
Look, I... don't...
You're Mazama Jin-kun, right?
Hino Hitomi Primate: Homo sapiens
Are you done eating already?
No, no!
I'm still just starting. Go ahead, have a seat.
Oh, good!
You and I are the only humans here, so I felt a little lost.
I'm so glad I'm human!
You brought lunch from home, Hino-san?
Yeah. I really like to cook.
And the menu here is a little too wild for me.
Yeah, considering this...
S-She's soothing my soul.
What could be better than this?
Random, vague conversations, peaceful times...
I wish all these animals would go extinct and leave the two of us here.
There's a strange female here!
Is this a friend of yours, Jin-kun?
No, no...
Hey!
If you want this male, you'll have to fight me for him!
H-Huh?
Bring it, human female!
Excuse me! I'm not a "male"! I'm Mazama Jin!
What are you doing to Hino-san?!
Sorry!
I guess I was interfering!
Hino-san!
Aw, man...
I win!
Victory!!
What do you think you're doing, you dumb mutt?!
I'm the boss! I won't let you treat me that way!
I never said I wanted to join a pack of dogs!
I'm not a dog! I'm a wolf!
Same difference!
You keep talking about your pack, but it looks to me like...
You're all alone!
Alone
Leave me out of your stupid "pack" game!
Go away!
Shoo, shoo!
Uh... Now, listen.
I'm a human, and you're a dog.
Wolf...
Just look at everyone else.
They're all hanging out with their own kind.
Animals of different species can't become friends.
That's not true.
A long time ago, there was a human who saved me!
When I was little,
I was attacked by bears...
Stop!
...and he showed up.
He protected me with no regard for the danger he was in.
No one outside my pack had ever done anything like that for me before.
I was so happy.
At the time, I thought
that I might be able to make friends with animals other than wolves...
That I might be able to form a pack with lots of different animals in it!
Forget it!
If you decide you want to join my pack later, I'm not letting you in!
Seton Academy Student Dormitory
When some bears were picking on me,
a human boy showed up and saved me.
No...
Stop!
That was me!
I just stumbled across a puppy that was being picked on,
and thought I'd help her out...
But I ended up being beaten to a pulp by those bears.
I've hated animals ever since.
Se
Then that stupid dog started licking my wounds, even though I told her to stop.
That's when I knew I'd never share any kind of understanding with animals.
I never thought I'd run into that mutt again.
That I might be able to form a pack with lots of different animals!
Well, it's no concern of mine.
Seton Academy: Join the Pack!
Tibetan wolf!
Seton Academy: Join the Pack!
Zebra!
Yeah! Break time!
Damn animals...
Good morning, Jin-kun.
H-Hino-san?
A club?
Yeah. I was thinking of starting a cooking club.
Oh, yeah. You did say you like to cook.
Yeah.
I thought it'd be nice to show other students how fun cooking is.
I think it's a great idea!
You could start a garden on the school grounds.
That's jumping the gun a bit.
This is the beginning of my youth!
I told you! If you want Jin, you have to fight me, human female!
Uh, um...
And I told you that I don't want to be in your pack!
As boss, I'm giving special permission to—
Shut up!
I'm talking to Hino-san right now!
Can you not see that?!
Are you in a pack with that female now?
That's right!
No, no, no! I meant since we were talking about starting a cooking club... um...
A-Anyway! I'm not joining your pack!
So beat it!
Fine.
Jin-kun...
It's fine. She's really been bothering me.
Are all of these yours?
Sorry, are they too heavy?
I can carry them...
No, not at all. They're light.
What is she doing?
Check it out! That wolf's being put to work by a horse!
Pathetic!
Just what are you doing?
If those get damaged, you will pay dearly.
You're too slow, dog! Move faster!
Hey!
Stop!
Don't hit her any more!
Th-Those things look too heavy for Ranka-chan.
Can't you carry at least a little of it yourself?
I-It's fine, human female!
No, it's not! This is...
not the right way to make friends at all!
You there...
You dare defy the great Mashima Kuroe?
I believe you just said something about "friends,"
but this lone wolf, Ranka-san, begged me to let her join my herd,
so I simply had no other choice but to let her join...
as my pack horse!
Don't call her a pack horse!
It's all right, human female.
This is my job as the newest member of the pack.
There, you see? Just like I said!
I'd rather have been in a pack with Jin, though.
Excuse me?
But Jin's starting a pack with that female... with Hitomi, right?
I know how it feels to be all alone,
so I'm happy that Jin gets to be in a pack with another human!
Are you saying...
you joined my herd even though you didn't want to?
No! That's not what I meant!
It appears you need some discipline!
Jin!
Jin-kun!
How dare you?! This is not your concern!
Is there a problem?
You aren't in the same herd as Ranka-san, are... you...
Hmph!
That's it! You're fired!
Huh?!
I never thought Ranka-san was fit for a herd
as proud and noble as that of the horses.
What gives you the right to talk like that?
It's because...
...she's a zebra!
Horse herds are plenty attractive and dignified on their own...
...but she's the rarest among them, a horse with stripes!
Indeed! I am a noble mare.
I was ill-matched with you lot to begin with.
Kuroe-sama!
What are you talking about?
Zebras are donkeys!
Donkeys?
They're not exactly the same,
but zebras are more closely related to donkeys than horses.
Equines
H o r s e
Z e b r a
Horses are intelligent and friendly, so they get along well with humans,
but zebras are short-tempered and don't get along with humans.
Also, they communicate by barking.
Arf Arf
He's lying!
Y-You mustn't let him fool you, everyone!
This human just made all of that up!
They're just lies with no proof to back them up!
There's no way an elegant mare like myself belongs with the likes of them!
You want me to show you proof?
Oh, please do! If you have any, that is!
Are you sure about that?
Just show me already, you—
See?
Oh! It's only fluffy at the tip!
I wondered why she never showed us...
It's a donkey tail!
Arf, arf, arf! I'll never accept this!
Kuroe-sama!
We don't mind it at all!
Are you okay?
Look what a mess you are, Ranka-chan.
Ranka-chan?
Hey!
I finally found you.
Where's Jin?
On his way home.
Wolves are proud creatures.
I don't need your sympathy.
Hey, Ranka-chan.
Would you like to be my friend...
and join the cooking club?
Hitomi-chan?!
Out of the way, runt.
We're sick and tired of honey.
We wanna play with that little cutie there.
Shut up!
Just give it up and go back to your den!
"Shut up! Just give it up and go back to your den!"
You hear that?
Don't! You're going to get hurt, too!
What did I tell you? Wolves are proud creatures!
I'd disgrace us all if I let myself be saved all the time!
And what are you to this little cutie?
You're not in the same pack.
I won't let you jerks have Hitomi!
She only just started a pack with Jin!
So you're defending someone else's pack?
When you can't even find a pack of your own?
I've heard of you.
You've been going around begging other animals to let you join their packs.
Pitiful!
You even had a zebra put you to work and liked it!
Look at that! She's gonna cry!
Come with us!
Hitomi!
What a tasty-looking female!
Yeah!
S-Stop it!
Hey!
Cut it out, you worthless bears!
Jin!
Jin-kun!
Hino-san, run!
But...
Now! Hurry!
O-Okay!
Yo, human.
There ain't no place here for a weak primate like you.
Hey, dumb dog!
That voice...
Jin!
Cut it out, you dumb dog. All I did was help Hino-san.
Jin!
Bear claw!
You've got a lot of nerve, mocking us like that.
No way! He recovered from the bear spray that quickly?
I washed it off with that!
What?!
I hope you're prepared.
The strongest of all predators, the Kodiak bear,
stands three meters tall and weighs 500 kilograms.
Their noses are five times keener than a dog's,
and they can run as fast as 50 kilometers per hour.
They're even tough enough to withstand being hit by a car.
Kodiak!
Hey!
But...
There is one animal that can snatch this bear's prey away:
the wolf!
How dare you...
How dare you threaten my friends?!
Wolves are not afraid of opponents that are larger than them.
You're kidding...
Wolves have even been known to prey upon bears!
Only when they're in packs, though.
Dumb dog!
Too bad for you!
Do you guys wanna go extinct, too?
Jin-kun! Ranka-chan!
Are you okay?
I get it! You went and got the teacher!
Yeah. I'm so glad you're okay!
Thanks, Hino-san.
Hey. So you're still alone, huh?
Leave me alone! What's it got to do with you?!
Well, you know...
Thanks for trying to save me.
It might be a weird way to thank you,
but I wouldn't mind joining your pack.
That's nasty!
I don't let people join my pack after they refuse—
Never mind, then.
I'll make an exception!
What made me decide to join her pack?
I'd rather not get involved with any animals if I don't have to.
But I guess I don't hate her... that much.
What the hell?
You wanna join my pack, right?
I welcome you, Jin!
The tendency of pet dogs to lick their owners around the mouth
originated as a form of communication used by wolves with their packmates.
It's used when a new member joins the pack
and when interacting with an alpha male,
and it expresses the highest level of affection and submission.
But it can get very intense!
And once a male and female wolf pair up,
they spend their entire lives together!
Huh?!
H-Hino-san, it's not what you think!
I-I-I-I-I just remembered something I have to do!
Hitomi!
It's used when a new member joins the pack
and when interacting with an alpha male,
and it expresses the highest level—
In short, if a wolf licks you, you're a friend!
Lick, lick!
Jin! Hitomi!
Welcome to my pack!
Awoooo
Cooking Room
Okay, so...
We're going to test you to see if you're good enough for the cooking club.
Good luck!
Okay! I'll—
I'll do my best!
Who are you?!
Next Time
Ranka here!
I'm Jin and Hitomi's boss!
Hitomi and Jin started a cooking club.
They're making me take a test to join it!
But I'm their boss......
Anyone who wants to join my club
will be licked in welcome!
See you next time!
