The "never-before-seen gorilla romantic comedy" fantasy is set in a world where people can be blessed by various animal gods upon turning 16. It follows the coming of age of Sofia Reeler, a timid countess who happens to be blessed by the Gorilla God (who is said to be the most powerful god in combat).
Shirohi created the novel series on the Shōsetsu ni Narō serice, and Kamisu serializes the manga on Kadokawa's Flos Comic service.
