進入公司至今總是找藉口不參加的員工旅遊,
今年幸來終於不得不參加了。貓咪諭吉當然只能看家。
雖然只有兩天一夜,卻吃不到諭吉做的飯,睡覺時身旁也沒有溫暖。
而且,面不改色送幸來出門的諭吉果然也…
懶散粉領族與家事萬能貓咪,首度相隔兩地的漫長夜晚。
//


生活廢柴工作全能的菁英OL福澤幸來,在雪天撿到了一隻小黑貓,取名為福澤諭吉。
諭吉跟普通小貓一樣長大,不普通的是他越長越大越長越大越長越大──最後長到跟人類一樣大!
被撿回家那天,看到住在垃圾屋裡也不在意、性格大剌剌,卻仍舊幫他打掃出一個溫暖小角落棲身的幸來,他忽然發覺也許比起被這個人類照顧,這個人類更需要別人照顧(?!)因此覺醒了從流浪貓到家貓的必要轉變──他有了家,他要顧好這個家!
諭吉開始勤奮地學習人類知識、打掃技能、烹飪技巧……最後成為一隻家事萬能的大貓貓,把主人從廢物給養成了廢物中的廢物(○

每天幸來都帶著精緻的手工便當去上班,同事們都稱讚她又勤勞手藝又好,只有她自己撐著勉強的微笑,故作鎮定的說是啊是手做便當,但一天比一天害怕被發現本人家事無能,這全是貓做的!沐浴在既把自己打理得乾淨整齊、工作能力強,又能游刃有餘養貓的光環下,天天被誤會女子力過高的幸來,感覺自己越來越結不了婚了……

因為討厭水,所以諭吉打掃浴室時會穿上全套生物防護服;買菜時超市店長會因為摸到遞過零錢的肉球而暗自心動;出門玩時會特地在背後黏上一條拉鍊假裝是穿玩偶裝,但偶爾也會被認為是熱愛偶裝的變態;興趣是購入各式各樣的圍裙跟看電視節目學新菜;一個眼神就可以趕走盤旋在垃圾場上的烏鴉;心情煩躁時就自己開一條啾嚕,拌一盆貓草沙拉來吃……

人類越廢,貓就越會!

Japan’s most harried housekeeper and his pet human continue their coexistence. While minor events like fancy gifts and kitten visits abound, that’s nothing compared Saku having to head on a work retreat for two nights. Whose separation anxiety will be worse? And how did this turn into a yuri manga? (I’m innocent, I swear)

Every time I start reading a volume of this I think it’s just like the last and this book will be fulfilling, if slight, and precious little more than a diversion. Yet it never fails to go just that little bit more beyond that.

I love that the series has decided that even if Saku is a disaster of a homemaker, she’s quite competent in other areas, and it’s great the way they have two of her coworkers sounding off as a Greek chorus that also happens to completely misunderstand Yukichi’s fascination with lint rollers (he likes using them to actually clean clothing, naturally). That smidgen of balance makes it work much better.

We get double our kitten-y pleasure this time around, with Yukichi taking care of a wee one as a favour and learning that the boundless energy of youth is not to be trifled with. There’s also another delight of a bonus manga at the back about his own kitten years.

The biggest storyline involves the retreat Saku had to go on, that starts off with some bluster on Yukichi’s part and some misinterpretation on Saku’s and then turns into this incredibly funny but emotional piece on the bond between pet and owner.

It’s got some impressive artwork on Saku and shows off Yukichi as the planner of the two as well as how much they really mean to one another. No book where a cat gets excited to wear an apron should be able to tug the heartstrings like that. That phone call is a moment and a half.

The whole yuri angle is very slight, but very funny, as Saku turns out to not only be marriage material, but made quite an impression on one of the other characters last volume. It looks like it’s going to be a bit of gay panic, but is more nuanced than that (the last image of this story is very amusing and very awkward).

I would further be remiss if I did not mention a brief chapter about lookalike pets at the end, as Yukichi’s mental image of this is hilarious, but Saku’s interpretation is so on-the-nose for the series’ mission statement that I literally barked out loud. That’s a rare and treasured event for me.

My usual complaint remains - this manga is too good for the hoary old jokes about Saku’s weight. It’s like something out of an old Cathy newspaper strip and roughly as funny (ie, not very). I admit that Yukichi is clearly looking out for Saku (and he does the work he demands of her, leading to one great visual), but this is such a lame running gag.

If you don’t like cats and the thought of a huge feline that wears clothes isn’t inherently amusing, you won’t have your mind changed here. I love cats, and big fluffs at that, so this book’s got my number. I wish it was longer, but it’s impressive work for a single mangaka with no assistants.

4 stars - ugh, I can’t help it; this book is so damn adorable. It’s the perfect encapsulation of the joys of pet ownership and just general cat behaviour, plus the cat is huge. What’s not to love?

The gentle and mild cat and workplace humor continues with a business trip that separates cat from owner for a night providing a little shake-up and spark. And despite Saku's obliviousness, there are at least two people who are starting to have feelings for her besides the cat. I'm addicted now and will be seeking this series out for the foreseeable future.

The cast isn't super large, but I am enjoying the slowly growing characters orbiting Yukichi and his owner. And I always enjoy the end of the manga where we get the origin of young Yukichi.

I love this series so much. It's just so charming and relatable and I have long since passed wanting to understand how her cat grew to be six feet tall and walk on his back legs. Who cares, he's perfectly adorable. I smile and laugh my way through every single one of these.

More Please.

As this series goes on, it becomes more of an examination of how success frequently depends on your support network. Saku was an absolute disaster before Yukichi; now she's senpai to two officemates, highly popular with her coworkers, and well-respected in her field. All this because Yukichi is at home, making sure she has clean clothes and hangover cures--basically fulfilling the role a housewife would normally handle for a businessman. For a woman to get that kind of support, apparently we need to adopt superintelligent giant felines. Which, I totally would. Just tell me where.

A truly precious volume. I think I liked this one far more than the previous two but that's only because we were able to really see how much Saku and Yukichi mean to each other. The illustrations are always the most enjoyable part. Seeing Yukichi in different outfits is always very humorous and cute. The many different days among the two of them are always so comforting and inviting. This was a very fun volume.

The more of this series I read the more in love I fall into the concept of a cat taking care of a human. It’s not something you see all the time and it’s a totally new concept for me to read. I honestly can’t wait to read the next volume, but I have to say I’m going to have to wait until volume 5 comes out because I don’t think I can bare to wait for the next volume afterwards 😭😂

This volume was okay, but I really didn't enjoy it as much as the 2nd or 1st one. It wasn't BAD- just a whole lot less interesting for me. I did find Saku co-workers talking about her funny, as well as her and Yukichi being separated, but this one could of been a little better.

(This book contains alcohol, language and a girl crushing on the main girl. I would give it an age rating of 13+)

Still not sure why it’s called “Masterful Cat is Depressed Again, Today.” The cat doesn’t seem to be depressed 😂 I guess he was a little when she went out of town, but he seems pretty not depressed most of the time.

Still adorable, not my favorite installment of the series, but still - I LOVE this series overall. So fun and I must really be wanting someone to take care of me, it seems... but seriously the illustrations are so cute and funny!

Super duper love this series. There were many moments that made me squee out loud. I just wish there wasn’t that running gag about the main woman’s weight.

I loved Yukichi's perspective and the comical
Anxiety that comes with leaving your cat alone for the night. This was a fun read with cute art to follow.
