Butareba -The Story of a Man Turned Into a Pig- (2023)

After collapsing from eating raw pig liver, I've been reincarnated as a pig in Mesteria, a world run by swords and magic. The beautiful girl who saved me worked as a servant and was a member of the Yethma, a race of girls with the ability to read minds. Despite being able to hear all of the lustful fantasies of this ex-dirty, scrawny, four-eyed virgin, Jess always responded with a soft smile. Hold on, why is this girl being so nice to me...!?

Jess and I have begun preparations to make our way to the royal capital. However, despite knowing that there is a man inside this pig body, this beautiful girl doesn’t seem to have even a hint of wariness! While being enthralled by the innocent girl's every move, Jess takes Pig with her to the lively city of Kiltyrie to buy something... Hold on Jess, why are you going into such a suspicious-looking alleyway?

After seeing my astonishing dance performance, which is a skill I developed through training in rhythm games, I was purchased by a ristae shop. However, while waiting for my turn to perform at the festival, I realized something. I am an ex-dirty, scrawny, four-eyed virgin who has never once received attention from large groups of people before. But it doesn't matter. Jess is wearing a maid outfit and is cheering me on. Dance for your Oshi, Pig!

After being stabbed by a man with a sword wound, I lost consciousness. When I awoke, I found myself in an unfamiliar forest with Jess sleeping soundly while using my stomach as a pillow. It seems she's really tired. I decided we should start moving and that Jess should ride on my back but... Cutie-pie Jess, you can't sit on me like that! As we go on our love comedy journey, Jess reveals a shocking truth to me...

Jess and I met a young Yethma named Ceres in a town we stopped by amidst our travels. Upon Jess's request, she guided us to the site of a monastery that burned down five years ago. As we were setting down some flowers at the site, a young man wielding double blades suddenly appears before us accompanied by a dog. He's cool, strong and handsome... I don't like him, he's like my natural enemy... Who on earth is this guy?

After hearing my appeal, Naut has agreed to join us on our journey. We set off to the royal capital along with Naut's companion, the perverted dog Rossi, by our side and Ceres's prayers on our backs. But in the next city that we arrive at, I learn about an incomprehensible truth about Yethmas... It seems I'm going to have to interrogate Naut about that incident. It's about what you were doing when you were alone with a drunken Jess last evening...

Jess and I hear the voice of a young girl Yethma named Blaise calling for help. After finding out about this, Naut takes Rossi and rushes in the direction of the voice. Chasing after him, the two of us also scramble to the source of the voice... However, my human senses smell something fishy about all of this. Will we be okay jumping in like this?

After Blaise has joined us on our journey, we made our way to the Impaling Stones. Thanks to Naut, our travels have been going well, but I can feel danger levels are steadily rising as we approach the royal capital... I must come to a decision. What am I capable of doing to help Jess, and what should I prioritize? That night, Blaise quietly pulled me aside and opened up to me about...

After I became aware that Blaise's body was in critical condition, it became clear that we must reach the royal capital as soon as possible, for her sake, as well. However, as we hurry along our journey, the thing we've been fearful of this whole time finally appears – Yethma hunters. Outnumbered, we find ourselves in an overwhelmingly disadvantageous position. Using our wits to battle against them, we must find a way out of this predicament no matter what...

Separated from our travel companions, Jess and I make our way to the royal capital, just the two of us. As we continue walking through the Needle Woods, we reach the towering cliffs of the royal capital, not knowing the most important thing – how to get in. At a loss of what to do, Jess and I are forced to wander in the most dangerous of places as Jess's body gradually grows weaker and weaker. As her chabirone, it is my duty to escort her to the royal capital, no matter what.

We finally understood what Blaise meant when she said to "Appeal to the king" and have made it into the royal capital. However, there are still many unanswered questions... Why do all the Yethma girls have collars on their necks? Why do their lives meet such a horrible fate? It's finally time to learn the truth and what it will take for me to return to my human body...

After hearing the truth from the king, Jess and I were spending the remaining time we had together. At this time, she opened up to me the "true reason" why I was brought here to this isekai (Mesteria). My fellows, please watch through to the end. To the end of a pig and a beautiful girl's lovey-dovey fantasy adventure, that could not be retold without shedding tears.
