Otogi no Machi no Rena is an ecchi manga by Mitsuru Hatori, creator of Kenko Zenrakei Suieibu Umisho and Sankarea. It was serialized in Young Magazine Uppers from 2002 to 2004.
The story is set in the town of Otogi, where our heroine, Rena, lives a peaceful life between school and athletics, until she suddenly has unusually intense surges of lust and it goes from there. She can't always suppress her urges, so that the resident nerd and lech, respectively, soon catch on; while the first wants to help her and get in her pants, the latter just wants to get it on with her. Rena soon finds out that these surges come from little hairy creatures called Kegari Chota, which have possessed her and she is a idol and mother figure to them (literally) which they protect at almost any price or circumstance.
This manga provides examples of:
- All Guys Want Cheerleaders: Ogata, Jirou, his brother and the guy that works at the gym all want Rena, a cheerleader.
- Dude, She's Like in a Coma: Jirou fondles and strips an unconscious Rena. He probably would've done more if he hadn't been interrupted.
- Genki Girl: Rena. And her little sister, Mikoto, is even Genki-er.
- Green-Eyed Monster: Mikoto is jealous of Rena because she keeps trying to catch a Kegari Chota but they like her sister better. Yes, Mikoto's a little simple.
- Implacable Man: The Kegari Chota can follow you anywhere, can catch up to anything and are Nigh-Invulnerable. So, Rena never gets rid of them.
- I Was Quite a Looker: Ogata's grandma. The priest inverts this by looking better now than he did in youth.
- Oh, Crap!: Whenever the Chota think Rena is molested when not in heat, their eyes and antennae glow, antennae and hair stand straight up. Don't be close to whereever they are then.
- Otaku: Ogata, though his field isn't clarified.
- Parents in Distress: The hamsters jump to Rena's aid when she's not in heat.
- Plot Armour: The thing that protects Jirou and his brother from being beaten up by Rena.
- Ridiculously Cute Critter: The Kegari Chota are so cute that it hurts.
- Virginity Makes You Stupid: Mikoto actually wants to get the Kegari Chota to hang around. Also, Rena because she hasn't turned Jirou in to the police.
- Wham Line: The end of chapter 37. The Kegari Chota realize Kolo is compatible with them the same way Rena is. As in, they can bond with her, leaving her trapped with an Estrous cycle and giving birth to more Kegari Chota. Kolo, being unaware of what the Kegari Chota are, is oblivious as they approach her.
- Why Don't Ya Just Shoot Him?: Or kick him until the testosterone glands in his testicles stop functioning? Or simply turn him in and let the police deal with Jirou?
