The Clergy
Those who have demonstrated the highest levels of devotion, understanding, and cultural contribution to the faith.
The Papal Lineage: House Greyrat
"The Gold Standard of Devotion"
In Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation, the Greyrat family (particularly the Boreas branch) is the gold standard for this trope. Their obsession isn't just a quirk; it is a multi-generational, genetic imperative that shapes their politics, their staffing choices, and their daily lives. The founder has recognized this innate alignment with the faith and rewarded their status here.
Rudeus Greyrat
The Philosophical WorshipperRudeus is the culmination of the Greyrat bloodline’s "trashy" tendencies mixed with his own past-life otaku culture. His love for kemonomimi is textured, intellectual, and deeply perverted.
The "Sacred Beast"
When the "Sacred Beast" (REDACTED) REDACTED, Rudeus essentially treats it like a glorified carpet. He is frequently described burying his face in REDACTED's fur, obsessing over the "fluffiness" and the tactile sensation of the beast's coat. He acknowledges REDACTED's divinity but cares significantly more about REDACTED's value as a stress-relief fluff-ball.
Linia & Pursena (The Princesses)
During his time at the Ranoa Magic Academy, Rudeus’s interactions with Linia (cat-lineage) and Pursena (dog-lineage) are defined by a reverence for their animal traits. He doesn't just find them attractive; he actively analyzes the movement of their ears and tails to gauge their emotions.
The Obsession: He often has internal monologues praising the specific texture of their ears and the way their tails wag.
The Restraint: It is a running gag that while he "bodied" them in a fight and they view him as their "Boss," he constantly struggles with the urge to pet them.
Ghislaine Dedoldia
His first teacher. Rudeus’s worship of her muscles and animal traits formed the foundation of his "religion" (alongside Roxy I guess...). He specifically notes the contrast between her fierce warrior nature and the soft, twitchy expressiveness of her ears.
Sauros Boreas Greyrat
The Collector & ConnoisseurGrandfather to Eris and the former Lord of the Fittoa Region, Sauros is the origin point for the Boreas family's "furry" reputation. He didn't just like beast folk; he institutionalized it.
The Staffing Policy
Sauros exclusively hired beast-race maids for his mansion. This wasn't an accident; it was a mandate. He surrounded himself with fur and ears because he believed they were superior to human aesthetics.
The Discovery of Ghislaine
There is a famous backstory scene where Sauros and a young Eris find a starving, dying Ghislaine on the roadside. Instead of focusing on her injuries or politics, Sauros’s immediate, ecstatic reaction is:
"Look at the ears and tail! It's got to be a Dedoldia!"
He saves her life not out of pure altruism, but because letting such a magnificent specimen of the Beast Race die would be a "waste." He immediately offers her a job and a home, effectively collecting a rare shiny Pokémon.
The "Garchu"
Sauros was known for being loud and violent, but he would melt instantly in the presence of his beast maids, often engaging in rough "skinship" that terrified normal people but was standard affection for the Boreas line.
Eris Boreas Greyrat
The Aggressive CuddlerEris inherited the Boreas "Gene" in the most violent way possible. She does not view animal girls as people to be courted, but as "cute things" to be dominated and squeezed. There's more to say here, but that's a revelation for another time...
The Greyrat Reputation
"In the world of Mushoku Tensei, the name 'Greyrat' is synonymous with sexual deviancy. This reputation is so widespread that when Rudeus meets other nobles or beast folk, they often assume he wants to buy beast slaves or touch their ears simply because of his last name. The tragedy for Rudeus is that they are absolutely right."
The Archbishops
Pillars of the faith from across the multiverse.
Sora & Shiro
No Game No Life"We didn't challenge the Eastern Federation for land. We challenged them because we wanted to fluff their tails!"
The ultimate strategists who risked the fate of humanity on a coin toss, not for power, but for the right to pet a Warbeast. They understand that in a world governed by games, the only absolute truth is the tactile superiority of animal ears. They proved that 'Cuteness is Justice' is not a slogan; it is a casus belli.
Stunk & Zel
Interspecies Reviewers"To review is to know. To know is to love. We shall leave no species undocumented."
The great scholars of our time. They risk life, limb, and social standing to provide the world with critical, peer-reviewed data on every species. Their appreciation for the kemonomimi form is academic yet deeply passionate, documenting the specific texture of every tail and the acoustic properties of every purr. They teach us that variety is not just the spice of life; it is the main course.
Kimihito Kurusu
Monster Musume"My house is destroyed, my bones are broken, but my heart is full."
The Martyr of Moe. He endures bone-crushing hugs, venom, fire, and drowning, all with a smile. He represents the physical endurance required to truly love a monster girl. He teaches us that the love of a kemonomimi is a force of nature—sometimes dangerous, always chaotic, but infinitely worth the cost of home insurance.
Issei Hyoudou
High School DxD"I fight to protect the President! And Koneko! And... well, I fight for the right to touch!"
A man of singular, unashamed focus. While his desires are broad, his protective instinct towards the Nekomimi (Koneko) reveals a man of deep culture. He draws power not from anger, but from the burning desire to preserve the beauty of the supernatural. He fights for a world where every devil, angel, and catgirl can live (and be appreciated) in harmony.
