Both brilliant mangas are made by the same author, Makoto Raiku!!

Though , in this manga, there are animals instead and its set in a place where there are no cities but only forests. Its art style is the same as Zatch Bell but the story is completely different. The action scenes are quite cool and well drawn so if u enjoyed Zatch Bell very much, then i think u'll also enjoy this manga. However, it is quite long with lots of chapters just as with Zatch Bell, so better be prepared before u start reading it.:)

"The strong shall win over the weak, and that's all that matters." Both these stories directly oppose that philosophy, and show the value of the 'weak'. Raiku has two major manga works: Gash Bell and Animal Land. Both are coming of age stories with lots of sad children who are tormented by a system that favours the strong. Both stories have lots of passionate emotion and heart. In both, the hero takes a stand for a more gentle world - and shows how, more than brute force, connections and kindness are important when we aim to make a better world.
