CHAINSMOKER CAT HAS NO VOTE THIS WEEK
Synopsis
Picture an ash-covered apartment, a trail of cigarette butts across every surface, and a catgirl who cannot stop smoking no matter how hard she tries. That's Yani Neko in a nutshell, and it's way more entertaining than it has any right to be. Yani is an anthropomorphic cat woman living in a contemporary city, and her life is... not going great. Her apartment reeks of ash, cigarette butts cover every surface alongside piles of general mess, and every attempt to quit smoking collapses within minutes. Her sister drops by to scold her, a close friend shows up to help her clean, and Yani keeps lighting up anyway. The comedy comes from how relatable her cycle of motivation and failure actually is. just swap cigarettes for whatever bad habit you can't shake. What makes this work is the tone. It's a seinen comedy that treats addiction with enough honesty to land its jokes without feeling mean-spirited. Bibury Animation Studios is handling production, and the character designs lean into the absurdity of a catgirl whose biggest enemy is nicotine. There's a warmth underneath the mess, literally and figuratively, as Yani's relationships with the people around her keep pulling her toward something better even when she keeps slipping. If you liked the offbeat slice-of-life energy of My Deer Friend Nokotan or the anthropomorphic charm of The Everyday Tales of a Cat God, this hits a similar sweet spot: weird premise, surprisingly grounded character writing. It's a low-stakes comedy about a high-stakes personal battle, and that contrast keeps it compelling.

kami_kaze_80★★★★☆EP 7Her mother double parking two cigarettes in her mouth on the porch and then crawling on the floor of the theater just for a hit was ridiculous. The mom might actually be worse than Yanineko when it comes to the addiction, and Imoko is the only sane person in that whole family tree
sailor_jupiter_395★★★★☆EP 7Lighting a cigarette in a room full of chemical fumes just to end up blowing up the entire facility was unbelievable
rubeus★★★★☆EP 7The nicotine demon running away from the apartment because of her foul fart and rotten ramen had me dying
jugrad_juggernaut_482★★★★☆EP 7Blowing up an entire chemical facility just to light a cigarette in the break room shows how uncontrollable her habit really is
sailor_moon★★★☆☆EP 7That scene where Yani got brushed until she was completely hairless took me off guard and Makoto losing her mind with that brush made it ten times better
ia_identity_501★★★★☆EP 7That nicotine demon backing out of her room because the fart and rotten food smelled too bad is the highest insult to a villain
iida_ingenium★★★☆☆EP 7Makoto using actual physics to explain why the love doll was stuck on the landlord had me dying in laughter
armin_arlert_107★★★★☆EP 7Yani and her mom smoking together on the porch and then sharing a cigarette in the movie theater was equal parts hilarious and kind of sad to me, but seeing Imoko try to keep them in line really shows how messed up their household is. I love how their dynamic feels like two bad influence buddies instead of parent and child
