Yajima, the mastermind behind the manga, is no stranger to the world of social media, and fans can follow along with his adventures on X/Twitter! The story follows an ordinary old man who suddenly finds himself reincarnated as a adorable cat, and his boss, the president of the company he works for, becomes his unlikely rescuer.
The anime is set to air in October, as part of the “Poka Poka” program, and we can’t wait to see what kind of mischief these feline friends get up to!
Rio and Takahiro Kawakoshi are at the helm of the anime, working their magic at Studio Eight Colors.
