Modern Mogal

Modern Mogal is a Web Comic (specifically a manhua, as the author is from Taiwan) by DeviantArt user shepherd0821 (translated and edited by TNBi, draco-runan, and kittizak) about Cute Monster Girls (and women, and men) who live in the modern world (mogal = monster gal). The series is mostly made of single pages telling standalone Slice of Life stories, but a couple of characters have gotten arcs extending over several pages. Updates come out every week.


 * Bland-Name Product: "W-Burger"'s logo is a pair of inverted golden arches, and their flagship product is the "Huge Mac".
 * Fur Against Fang: Werewolf Mom and Vampire Dad recognize each other's species on sight and are not happy to meet. They don't break out into violence, but are both later seen purchasing products to get an edge over the other.
 * Honest Axe: In #051 "Stone Boy", the sister of the boy who Medusa petrified (way back in strip #1) takes his statue to the forest to be cured. Her wheelbarrow hits a rock and he falls in a river, and then a river spirit (?) offers her a gold statue or silver statue.  The girl refuses both, and as a "prize" for her honesty, the river spirit lets her keep both statues...but doesn't give the stone statue back.
 * Our Werewolves Are Different: Werewolf Mom transforms on the night of the full moon, but it seems her transformation is at least partly psychosomatic, as she is able look at a light bulb and think of it as a full moon to force a transformation when there's just a crescent moon out.
 * No Name Given: Most of the pages have little or no dialogue, so only a couple of characters are named directly. This results in Fan Nicknames like "Werewolf Mom" (who was later named "Jennifer") and "Vampire Dad".
 * Running Gag: The centaur's traffic barrier.
 * Shout Out:
 * In "How to be a death", the Grim Reapers are trained by a Drill Sergeant Nasty skeleton who is clearly a reference to R. Lee Ermey. (In fact, since it was published a few months after Ermey's death, it might have been the man himself.)
 * Maria the gynoid is named after the famous character from Metropolis, and bears 'finger-guns' similar to Aigis from Persona 3.
 * An anti-robot protester holds a sign saying "Robots took our jerbs!"
 * The Unmasqued World: Non-humans live openly in society. Characters include a centaur who is serving in the military and a gynoid married to a police officer.
 * The Masquerade: Nevertheless, Werewolf Mom hides her nature from her daughter.
