tl;dr: A story about a cat that becomes human centered around family bonds that while not a masterpiece still manages to elicit a decent level of feelings. This manga starts out with a really lighthearted tone to the point that it kind of feels like a gag manga. As it goes on it gets quite a bit more melancholic, especially in regards to portions that deal with the past and those that looked towards the future. Intermixed with all that though there’s still a decent amount of happier and more lighthearted events, which work well for the most part even if the tone does seem a bit randomat times. Through all this, there’s some light character and relationship development and a few smaller overarching plot threads, but for the most part its focused on just a bunch of amusing and heartwarming moments generally centered around showing off family bonds. There is a larger overarching thread that pops up a bit too early I think and then somewhat ignored in a somewhat awkward fashion until in the end it pops up again and build up to a nakige type ending. The writing on all this I would say was decent enough, though ultimately it did end up glossing over some of the side characters such as Hayase. Still, overall, I would say it was ultimately reasonably satisfying. The art was okay, but I actually felt like it was better towards the beginning towards the end as it felt like as it went on the artist began playing things too safe and simple.
