Hitoner
Hitoner (Japanese: ヒトナー, RR: Hitonā) is the latest sci-fi adventure manga by Tomohiro Yagi, the talented creator known for Iron Knight and Red Sprite. Serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump (and available on Manga Plus), the series has immediately caught the attention of fans for its unique "Reverse Isekai" feel and its fascinating take on interspecies sociology.
The story is set on a distant, isolated planet inhabited by Kemo—a diverse race of evolved beastkin. Their world is thrown into chaos when a spacecraft crashes, revealing a creature they have only heard of in myths: a "Hito" (Human). The protagonist, an Earthling, becomes the first human to interact with their society. To the beastmen, this "hairless" creature is both terrifying and mesmerizing, leading to a series of scientific observations, cultural shocks, and a slow transformation of their entire civilization.
