Historical fact regarding when she states that ostriches were originally called Houyorosutereisu (which she then takes her name from) in Japanese.

In 1658 the Dutch presented an ostrich as tribute for the shogun. When asked what this bird was called they used the Dutch name vogelstruis. The Japanese wrote that down as Houyorosutereisu.

(The syllable “ho” at this time was still pronounced as “fo” in Japanese, which is the same as Dutch “vo”. The Dutch g is a fricative and not a plosive like in English or Japanese. So the Japanese spelling isn’t that off like it seems at a first glance.)

Oh she's taking her responsibility first here and thought this through. This looks interesting.

Yay for updates!

Honestly, I can't really see the ostrish beastkin doing well in society. What jobs would they do? Forget being slaves as they're not smart enough to be of any use and they also lack hands. They could be pets, but considering that they're wild and can be ruthless, that's pretty dangerous. They'd never be used as livestock because they like their meat and are hunters.

If human like species can interbreed, I guess that the next generation of half-ostrish beastkin could be smarter. If not, the moment the leader is gone, what happens to them? I mean, I'm still amazed they've apparently been surviving without their evolved leader's guidance.
Saw the novel, you will get your answers soon and it will be glorious.

Can't wait for the chapter where some incompetent noble(s) take her captive and a stampede of lolis tear apart the villa for their onee-chan XD
Mail carrier between towns would be perfect for them. High speed, high stamina and capable of self-defense.
But what if magic?

They're not intelligent enough to follow instructions without constant supervision, just like how we saw the flock constantly be obsessed with breakfast.

Definitely looking forward to this one.. seems quite different and while I don't want to see any of the adorable pack take an L, I'm a bit torn if I want them to also "improve."
For whatever reason, as I read through these two chapters, I started imagining what it'd be like if the other ostriches gained more intelligence and formed a sort of supportive pack, almost in a nation kind of format.. got the leader, advisors, people in charge of various things, and of course the military.

So.. once again, conflicted whether or not I'd want to see that, but either way, I have a feeling this will be an interesting read.
