ChurchHatesTucker ☑#MangaMonday 92 “Chainsmoker Cat” by Nyan Nyan Factory
I’m not a big fan of gross-out humor, but I do have a soft spot for heroines that are a complete mess. This #manga has both.
Yani is a catgirl who is utterly addicted to nicotine. Her apartment is filled with loaded ashtrays, trash, and scorch marks. She can’t hold down a job, because she needs constant smoke breaks. When her water is shut off she relieves herself outside.
Her sister is relatively normal and wants her to quit smoking. Her drug fiend neighbor looks up to her, and is frequently disappointed. Her landlord is long suffering, but secretly into her.
It’s fertile ground for low-brow humor, and Nyan Nyan Factory has mined it for ten volumes so far. The first volume was just released in English (Seven Seas.)
“Nyan Nyan Factory” is a group pen name, and the art shift from chapter to chapter reflects that. Additional artists contribute pages to a “Nyanthology” at the end.
