"If everyone is weaker than me, it means I was born to protect those who can't stand up for themselves."
Ryuusei finds out that the calico boss of the Goblin Cat Tails is actually a molly called Sango, that’s too huge and too powerful to be called ‘a normal cat’ at all.
Still, they fight against each other because Sango’s ideal is to protect those who cannot defend themselves, and to create a kingdom for stray cats so they don’t die of hunger or for the lack of a room to stay. But Ryuu cannot accept that for himself, because he chose this life, so he can be free as a stray cat.
We gotta recognize that Ryuu is a cool protagonist that doesn’t seem to be so careless, despite his actions. He’s actually a good guy and everybody ends up liking him, one way or another.
Meanwhile, Madara, the intel cat, might not be entirely on their side ‘cause he’s working with a tuxedo-cat that is not very happy with Ryuu’s arrival, since he’s now the boss of the Nekonaki Town cats.
Just as the previous volume, this made me laugh a lot and I truly can’t wait to see what happens next. The calico male that Ryuu’s looking for seems interesting but there’s something nagging me and I wonder what that is…

This over the top cat story keeps getting weirder.
We now find out who the Calico is and it's NOT who we thought it would be. A secret love affair going down? Big ass fights? World building showing off new cats wanting to take over territories? Oh yes, it's all here, and the series keeps getting freaking weirder.
I still enjoy it though. The switch between cats and humans happens a lot more here and to great effect. Makes the humorous scenes so much better. I also think the fights are better here and show off more cat like features. The ending is cool world building and excited to see where it goes. A 3.5 out of 5. I'll bump it to a 4.

The novelty of the main conceit (characters alternately portrayed as cats and human hoodlums) is wearing off quickly, but this outing is still humorous if tending even more heavily toward the cutesy behavior of cats. It even includes a sequence of dancing cats like I first saw in What's Michael?, Vol. 4: Michael's Mambo decades ago.
The plot developments are dumb (protagonist decides the best way to search for his nemesis is to stay in one place), and the series has settled too soon into a repetitive cycle (introduce a new gang, have a confrontation, introduce a new gang...). And there are still unnecessary upskirt shots.
I might try one more volume if I come across it at the library, but I won't be seeking it out.

Sigo disfrutando mucho esta historia. Ryuu, el gato protagonista es adorable, en serio, el mangaka lo dibuja tierno aunque es buenísimo peleando y sabe cómo usar las palabras para llegar a los otros felinos.
Como sea, aquí pasan dos cosas: Ryuu se encuentra con el gato del vecindario vecino quien, de acuerdo con el gato informante, cumple con las características del gato a quien Ryuu busca, ¿será? Después un gato doméstico llega al parque donde el grupo se reúne, ¿qué hace ahí un gatito de casa?
Me conmovió mucho ese michi. La dinámica dividida entre gatos/humanos es divertida porque se intercambia cuando es necesaria.
Mi único pero va a sexualizar de más a Mii, la única gata en el grupo, en su faceta humana al dibujarla desde un ángulo que deja ver sus bragas.

My son loves this book, so I'm making the effort to keep up with it. It's ridiculous, and I love the action and creative characters. It's a great premise, and while this isn't exactly breaking brilliant new ground in terms of plot, the novelty is awesome, and the action keeps it a breezy read.

Oh this was FUN! Cat battles and new breeds on the scene. Excellent!

Ryuusei finally meets the leader of the Goblin Cat Tails - and it turns out the intel was bad, the leader is a female and not a male calico. Oops. Next up, a lost pet cat joins Taiga's group for safety, at least until his owner can find him. In the meantime, there seems to be a new threat in town, an odd group composed of a Bengal-looking fighter, a Sphinx cat, and a long-haired cat who seems to exist in a perpetual cloud of catnip.
A lot of my issues with the first volume also apply to this volume, although this time around I didn't even particularly like the artwork - too many scenes of the cats battling in non-catlike poses.
I really wasn't a fan of the humor in the first half of this volume, which hinged on the supposed hilarity of Sango, a huge female calico, being depicted as muscle-bound and masculine-looking in her human form. There is, of course, a scene in which she kisses Ryuusei and expresses an interest in him - all the male cats are predictably horrified.
I liked the introduction of the lost pet cat reasonably well, although it's hard to tell if the second half of the volume was gearing up for anything new or just introducing a slightly different quirky group that Ryuusei would then have to battle.
All in all, this continues to be a mediocre series.
Extras:
Translation notes (for some reason inserted just before the final chapter rather than at the end of the volume), one full-color illustration, and a vague map of key locations in the series.

Je remercie les Éditions Doki doki pour cette lecture. Nyankees, c’est une suite que j’attendais vraiment beaucoup. Le premier tome m’avait beaucoup plus. De l’humour, des chats, que demander de plus ?
Dans le dernier tome, nous avions vu que Ryûsei recherchait un chat en particulier, un tricolore. Apparemment, ce dernier pourrait être le boss du gang des Goblin Cat Tails. C’est ainsi que lui et les chats du quartier Nekonaki vont finir par se retrouver confronté à ce boss.
Petit souci, c’est une femelle, or Ryûsei recherche un mâle. Malgré tout, elle a l’air très forte et n’est pas prête à laisser Ryûsei et les chats de Nekonaki tranquille. Il va falloir se battre, Ryûsei n’a pas d’autre choix.
J’aime toujours autant ce manga. Clairement, j’apprécie cet humour. Des chats, auxquels on donne une forme humaine, type loubard, afin de donner un sens plus prononcé et une meilleure compréhension de l’histoire.
Il y a deux choses que je trouve vraiment intéressantes dans cette saga. Premièrement, comme je le répète souvent : l’humour. Deuxième, le petit fil conducteur lié à Ryûsei, qu’on suit en parallèle. Ce n’est pas une simple saga qui a pour but d’être seulement humoristique, sans histoire en fond. C’est ce qui me plaît justement, l’humour, juste pour faire de l’humour, sans profondeur, me plaît rarement.
En bref, c’est un deuxième tome qui me plaît autant que le premier. L’histoire avance petit à petit, même si on n’a toujours pas plus d’informations concernant les recherches de Ryûsei. Par compte, une guerre des clans risque de bientôt éclater et j’ai hâte de voir ce que cela pourrait donner ! 😉

Chronique complète :
https://sunread26.wordpress.com/2021/...
Extrait :
Vous reprendriez bien un peu de chats et de combats ? Ryûsei pense enfin avoir retrouvé le chat qu’il recherche, mais il va vite déchanter et devra à nouveau combattre pour sa liberté. Toujours accompagné de Taiga, il devra encore une fois attendre avant de retrouver celui qu’il recherche…
Comme dit plus haut, il y aura encore pas mal de combats au programme pour Ryûsei et ses nouveaux compagnons. Toujours avec un mélange d’humour et d’action ses scènes sont vraiment originales, car à pas une autre série, j’avoue ne pas avoir vu ce genre de choses ailleurs pour le moment (après il existe tellement de titres que j’ai pu passé à côté de l’un d’eux).
Ce tome mets en avant un nouveau personnage féminin, assez puissant pour battre un chien ou d’autres chats bien plus imposants. Elle déjoue ainsi le stéréotype où les mâles sont supposés protéger les femelles, stéréotype facilement applicable au genre humain également. J’espère que son personnage reviendra plus tard dans la série au lieu d’être tout bonnement mis de côté après son passage fracassant dans la première partie de ce tome.

This felt juvenile in a bad way.
The guys/kitties have to go up against another gang boss. This time it is a Calico cat named “Molly.” There wasn’t much to her at all, and her hulking figure is played with as a gag.
Now, chapter 9’s cat dance party was a cute treat! The gang also meets a house cat this volume, and we see the stark differences to life as a stray.
I don’t find this series endearing, so I won’t be continuing. Like, with the Way of the Househusband series if I find the gag's getting too repetitive or it's less than stellar, I lose interest. Maybe it’s because I’m not a cat person.

Still a very fast middle of the road read. Nothing too outstanding so far in my opinion but I would say for a 6 volume story available from the library in my case, I am not mad for giving this manga a try/reading it - even if it is a middle of the road thing so far for me personally. After all it is a very fast read as in I have devoured 3 volumes in an hour give/take 5 minutes.

This w as s an improvement from the first volume but it was lacking in story development in some areas. However, the artwork where the cats were fighting was really intricate in their detail and breathtaking to look at.
June 26, 2020
This volume was more interesting than the first one in my opinion. I really enjoyed the character design of the human forms and the conflict between the warring cats felt logical to their nature. Still a lot of fun and I noticed it is picking up something new towards the end.
February 13, 2022
Really good. There were some point twists in this volume and the ending was left on a small cliffhanger. I really liked seeing more of the switching between cat and human on each page, the fighting scenes were great for that.
March 11, 2022
I honestly just feel like it’s weird, and that’s it. Like at first I was into it but I don’t really see the humor in it, a couple of years ago I would’ve really liked it for sure. But I just find it weird. I’ll keep reading it to see if it gets better or if I get more into it.
April 29, 2025
I think the stray cats portrayed as gangsters concept is hilarious and I loved volume 1 but the "omg this girl is built like a DUDE" gag that ran through half of volume 2 was cringe, hoping that this series will redeem itself in volume 3 🤞
July 6, 2019
Still cute, but not near as awesome as Vol. 1.

I'm pretty sure that boss cat is just a reimagining of Nyazilla from "What's Michael?," but she kicks a surprising amount of ass.
November 25, 2019
I hate that this series is so short! Love it even though it relies heavily on typical shonen tropes.
June 23, 2020
3.5 stars.
March 2, 2021
Knew it was too soon in the series for Ryuusei to find the mysterious Calico cat he's been looking for!
January 5, 2024
Silly and fun, humor is kinda crude sometimes but overall I’m really enjoying these as a light quick read!
February 22, 2024
very cute i appreciate this it's very sweet
