It’s A Cat’s Life After All In Dark Horse Manga’s ‘Cat + Crazy’ Volume 1
by Scott Redmond
Cat lovers who are Manga fans are about to receive a bit of an early holiday present to happily unwrap. Dark Horse Manga and Wataru Nadatani, Harvey Award nominated creator of the manga Cat + Gamer, have teamed up to bring English audiences a new cat-centric manga.
Arriving in June 2025, Cat + Crazy Volume 1 is a series described as “silly yet sincere” that follows a group of cat lovers through their lives. The series reunites Nadatani with Cat + Gamer’s letterer Susie Lee (Oh My Goodness!) and English translator Zach Davisson (H.P. Lovecraft’s At the Mountains of Madness, Ultimate X-Men).
High schooler Kensuke Fuji adores cats, but in a family full of people who are allergic, he’s never been able to spend much time with the furry felines. When he meets the Ultimate Cat Whisperer, Kensuke finds a kindred spirit who seems to understand everything about cats! Deciding to become a disciple of this “kitty bonkers” cat-guru, Kensuke is on his way to learning the secrets of the Cat Fist Way, as a doorway into the secret world of cats opens up!
Perfect for reading alongside one’s own feline companion, Cat + Crazy Volume 1 is set to arrive in comic shops and bookstores on June 24th, 2025. Priced at $12.99 for the paperback, the volume is also available to pre-order from Amazon, Barnes and Noble, TFAW, and other local bookstores.
