わたしと先生の幻獣診療録 [Watashi to Sensei no Genjū Shinryōroku]

In this gentle fantasy series from Mag Garden (2017–2020), a young apprentice assists her mentor—a reclusive veterinarian—in treating mythical beasts at a rural clinic. Spanning just five issues, the story balances slice-of-life warmth with the quiet wonder of caring for griffins, unicorns, and other magical creatures. While the creator is not widely known outside Japan, the series earned a devoted readership for its tender art and low-stakes, episodic charm. It stands as a compact, heartfelt example of the "healing fantasy" genre, where the bond between humans and fantastical animals takes center stage.
