* AnimalsLackAttributes: Exaggerated for the most part, but occasionally downplayed. All of the animals that appear in the manga are drawn with no genitalia (probably for the best). However, there are exceptions, such as Aries, having visible nipples when she is nursing her offspring. There are also some cases in which a dog humps another dog or urinates, but we don't see anything.
