A collection of comics featuring the further adventures of various yokai cats and their owners.

My favorite of these is the Korpokkur; it's so cute! I think just about all of these yokai cats have appeared in other volumes. I'm not positive about the Konaki Jijii, Satori, Warai Onna, or Umibozu. Those might be new this volume. If so, they were all fun additions. I have some rabid Yokai Cat fans who cannot wait to get their reading eyes on this volume, so I'm processing it as soon as possible for the library.

This is a fantastic series. It focuses on various cats with supernatural characteristics (characteristics which are representative of the type of Japanese mythical beast the cats are). For the most part, they're 4-panel slice-of-life vignettes. The stories are all cute, humorous, heart-warming, or a combination of all three. This is a great series if you're just looking for something to destress with. I've already requested the next volume.

Love this series so much. I think we have some new cats in this volume which is lovely. Happy to see some favourites remain. And my favourite favourites Azuki-arai (bean washer) and Nekomata get big sections in this volume. I love them all!

So cute and weird.

More cuteness. Nothing in particular stands out, but I've been reading a lot of these, so the blur together, and I was ill when I read this. Still enjoy it, of course.

Konaki JiJii is a old ass man cat who pretends to be a kitten.
The cat Cafe gets some real , not old ass men, kittens.
