Akino Momo is a household name in Japan, and her works The Terror Pet Shop and The Inspiration Merchant Company once sparked a "Akino Momo fever" across the country. The Terror Pet Shop tells a series of mysterious and bizarre stories that unfold in a pet shop on a commercial street in a certain city. Detective Leo Oreck has been particularly troubled lately. He believes that D, the owner of the pet shop on the commercial street, is a notorious villain who has committed countless illegal deeds, yet he has never been able to gather concrete evidence of his crimes. Determined to leave no stone unturned in his investigation, Leo resolves to bring D to justice. D is the owner of the Terror Pet Shop, a man who is unconventional, enigmatic, yet charming and righteous. In his pet shop, there are all kinds of bizarre animals—some that have long disappeared from the face of the Earth, some that have only ever appeared in human legends, and others that seem familiar but have never actually existed on this planet. D searches for the perfect pets for those who love animals, and beyond that, his socially conscious nature often leads him to involve himself in various matters—when a strange case arises in some corner of the city and the police are at a loss, D and his pets always appear.
