In episode 3 of Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun we're introduced to Clara,
who in turn introduces us to Connor and Murf.[1] At various points in time
Clara talks to or about Connor and Murf.[1][2][3][4] They're referred to as
slippers when Clara performs a move called _Slipper Kick_.[3]

At various points in the anime Connor and Murf move.[2][3][7] And so we know
they are animate to some extent.

In the introduction the slippers appear in a backdrop with various green
animals.[8] These green animals look like an un-slipperfied Connor and Murf.
At a later point in the introduction we see a green animal scratching itself
next to Clara.[9] I think Connor, Murf and the green animal are related, but I
have no clue how. Interestingly in Episode 8 there's a backdrop with slippers,
but no green animal.[5]

To me it looks like Connor and Murf are based on the green animal. Much like
you can get Pikachu slippers that are based on Pikachu.

# Are Connor, Murf and the green animal related?
