Chainsmoker Cat Manga Announces Full Volume Reprint
The Young Magazine editorial department explained, “Due to the overwhelming response to the Chainsmoker Cat TV anime, we received numerous reports from bookstores stating that copies were sold out, leading us to decide on a full volume reprint.”
Editor-in-Chief Expresses Surprise Over “Tremendous Response”
The Editor-in-Chief shared his astonishment at the reaction, stating: “The Chainsmoker Cat anime has generated a tremendous response, causing original manga stock to run low! I want to express my gratitude to all the readers and viewers who have embraced these dirty characters. Looking back three years ago, I am so glad I made the quick decision to serialize this nicotine-loving cat. Please continue to support Chainsmoker Cat and author Nyan Nyan Factory in the future. (From Kazushi of Koudangumi)”
Currently serializing in Young Magazine, the story follows the daily life of Yanineko, a cigarette-smoking cat. Yanineko is a trashy beastfolk who simply adores smoking cigarettes. Lacking a sense of morality and hygiene, she engages in misbehavior such as tossing cigarette butts out the window and dripping saliva on people. Surrounded by her overly helpful younger sister cat and her friend Yakuneko, the story is packed with the karmic reality of living day after day puffing away on cigarettes. The TV anime adaptation is currently broadcasting.
