CreepyCat 猫と私の奇妙な生活 [Creepy Cat: Neko to Watashi no Kimyō na Seikatsu] #2

Volume 2 of Cotton Valent's darkly charming slice-of-life manga finds a pale, dark-haired young woman in a maid-style apron painting a portrait of a wide-eyed, ghostly cat figure on canvas — surrounded by scattered sketches, small round ghost-like creatures, and flickering candles that set a wonderfully eerie mood. The cover's monochromatic palette, punctuated by vivid green lettering, perfectly captures the series' blend of the quietly unsettling and the oddly cozy. If you're drawn to stories that make the strange feel strangely comforting, this one belongs on your shelf.
