Anime Adaptation of the Award-Winning Manga ‘Yomawari Neko’

Animals are the best remedy for a bad day, in my opinion speaking for the majority. They have a way of making us feel better, but what if these animal companions resembled people more?

Yomawari Neko, a manga by Kaoru Fukaya, which features a humanlike cat as the main character, expands on this idea. The series gained such a following that it went on to garner recognition and win awards in the otaku community.

The popularity of the manga ‘Yomawari Neko’ (Night Patrol Cat) has led to a significant in a possible anime adaptation, according to a reliable reporter.

The series revolves around Endo, a human-like cat who goes out at night. Endo is attracted to the scent of tears and seeks out those who are crying in order to soothe and encourage them.

Endo tries to help as many people as he can because the night is full of individuals drowning in sadness. Even if he can’t stop their tears, he always tries to reassure them with encouraging words and reassurance.

Endo, a feline cheerleader, helped the manga series win the Tezuka Osamu Cultural Prize for Short Work in 2017. The series continued to make more people happy and provide them with comfort during difficult times after being bestowed with such respect and honor.

I can see why Fukaya chose to make Endo a cat because, despite their moody behavior, cats are incredibly adorable and comforting.

This manga would make a fantastic subject for an anime. The goal of the story will also be accomplished because it will reach more people who require it.

I’m hoping for a prompt official announcement because I’m eager to follow Endo’s daily exploits.
