Cats have always been important throughout the history of the world. In many places, cats are revered and worshiped especially in places like Egypt, China, Japan, and of course, our own homes. [hidepost] Nyan Koi!, a manga by Sato Fujiwara, is a story of a young man, Junpei Kōsaka, who is in his second year of high school. He is incredibly allergic to cats and despises being around them. He admires a girl in his class, Kaede Mizuno, who unfortunately for Junpei is infatuated with cats. In an unfortunate twist of events, Junpei accidentally breaks the local neko-jizō-sama (guardian deity of cats) statue. Now, Junpei is cursed and must help 100 cats to break the curse or else he will be turned into one himself and die from his own allergies. Junpei gains the ability to communicate with the cats but unfortunately, he is still incredibly allergic to them. With each chapter comes a hilarious story of how Junpei can help cats without looking strange or harming himself. This manga has also just begun to air as an anime this season and is receiving great praise from its viewers. Take some time to check this series out! It’s definitely something to read when you need a pick-me-up!
