Synopsis

In heaven's Animal Design Department, designers create a variety of new animals daily while contending with the unreasonable requests of their client: God. Funny, interesting, and full of useful information, this series answers questions such as, "Why can't unicorns exist?", "What makes an animal taste delicious?", "What's the most powerful creature in the ocean?", and, "Bird versus snake: who would win?" You won't believe it's a manga series when you read up on the featured animals in the included encyclopedia entries. Heavenly Design Team will make your next trip to the zoo or aquarium 100 times more fun!

Mixed Feelings
Preliminary (14/? eps)
Tenchi Souzou Design-bu is a simple comedy manga that centers on heaven employees called designers and angels that God puts in charge of creating all the animals. God isn't featured as a character, just a faceless voice that gives silly requests for animals (often in riddles) and the design team has to try and make an animal that fits. Each chapter features 3 different animals in the story with an info-spread about them at the end, similar to Seton! Academy.
