Publisher Marketing: Translated from the Japanese.;Horror comics author Junji Ito has recently purchased a new house and has decided to invite his girlfriend to move in with him. However, when she moves in, she comes with two cats - Yon, a strange-looking white cat with a ghastly fur pattern on its back that resembles a skull, and Mu, Yon's cute counterpart and playmate. This is the diary of the author's life as he tries and often fails to connect with his two feline guests. Review Quotes : " The funniest comic that I've read in--please forgive me--a cat's age. ... Ito is the creator of nerve-shredding horror comics like Uzumaki, and even though Cat Diary is an autobiographical story about life as a pet owner, Ito brings all of his skill as a horror genius to the table... Recommended." -Otaku USA Magazine "Incredibly memorable...Whether you're a die-hard Ito fan, a cat lover, or both, you will absolutely adore this manga." -Dread Central "Junji Ito proves just as adept at capturing life with kitties as he is at horror, and the story is by turns touching, hilarious, and heartbreaking." -Anime News Network Publisher Marketing : HELL -O-KITTY Master of Japanese horror manga Junji Ito presents a series of hissterical tales chronicling his real-life trials and tribulations of becoming a cat owner.
