Synopsis :
After living far from humans for a long time to escape persecution, vampires, succubus, Dullahan and other supernatural beings are now accepted by society. They are called "Parahumans" or "Demis" (from "Demihumans"), a more trendy term according to young adolescents of these species. At Shibasaki High School, many "Demis" are part of the students and teachers! For Tetsuo Takahashi, professor of biology, passionate about these supernatural beings, this is the perfect opportunity to study them more closely! Through these discussions with young teenage girls "Demis", he realizes that it is not easy to be half human. The "Demis" have to face daily the gaze of others and mockery about their difference. Tetsuo will get to know these teenagers better like the others and he will do everything to help them!
The first manga published in France for Petos, 「Freaky Girls」is a true hymn to tolerance. He presents us with very atypical characters who surround a very curious teacher. He discusses with these teenagers their peculiarities and discovers, day after day, points of view that are far from what he could have imagined. All in a comical way.
An excerpt of Freaky Girls is already online on Pika's website and you can find the series in simulcast on Crunchyroll every Saturday at 6:30 pm!
