Obayashi comes over for a visit and suggests that Riko get another cat to keep Musubi company. But has Riko leveled up enough to handle another cat and will they even get along?

This volume dives into some instructional information about how to introduce cats to each other but it’s done in a fun way. We get so much more of Musubi’s inner thoughts and with Soboro added to the cast, we have both cats in their new situation. They are funny and cute, basically everything we’ve come to expect from this series but if you were in this for the humans, they’re not as much of a focus. 4 out of 5.

In this volume, the hijinks include a visit to a theme park, a family cafe that becomes a bar at night, a new camera, a rare drink that has Tatsu hooked, and they acquire some high quality steaks.

It’s still so amusing to have these tough looking characters try and interact with normal people and situations. The way that juxtaposition is written has great comedic timing so even 11 volumes in, it’s still gives me a chuckle and is a lot of fun to read. Especially getting your hands on some good quality steaks. I know that feeling of getting something special to eat and wanting it to be savored as well as possible. 4 out of 5.

Lenni Reviews: “Mr. Villain’s Day Off” Vol. 2, by Yuu Morikawa

As The General has more little adventures on his days off, we also get to meet the Rangers, heroes who are in constant battle with the alien forces. 

So far, this series is a great palette cleanser in-between the action and horror I’ve been reading lately. I do wonder if this will stay similar to other slice of life manga or have a larger story line going forward. Also, a bit of a spoiler but I lost it when he started talking to a cat trying to recruit it to help them take over the planet. That would be hilarious if he actually succeeded and brought it back to his cohorts. 4 out of 5.

The General is one of the leaders of an intergalactic Evil League whose goal is to destroy humanity for his home world. But even terrifying alien leaders need a day off.

This is a hilarious take on a slice of life manga;  having an alien interact with humans and our world in a casual-ish manner. I love how the art toys with The General’s casual and on duty design, it’s really funny. If you like Way of the House Husband, I think you’ll like this unique spin on a comedy. 4 out of 5.

Summer is over and it’s time for the school festival where the students plan to take advantage of Junta’s invisibility and sets him up as a ghost in the haunted house they set up. Kubo is looking forward to spending some quality time with Junta at the festival but he does such a good job being invisible, she’s seeing Junta much less than she’d like.

Most of this volume is the school festival as Kubo wrestles with no longer being the only one Junta interacts with and it’s handled really well. It was low angst and pretty mature so if you’re looking for something light and sweet, this is perfect. It’s just cozy. 4.5 out of 5.

With the demon Morio going berserk and Keiji’s father captured, Keiji and his brother head off to rescue them. Also, Elizabeth’s human father makes an appearance.

So, with this volume, we get even more powerful demons and apparently Elizabeth’s father with this huge organization that makes weaponry that fights them? We’re getting bits of world-building and even though the overall concept of a demon fighting chicken is silly on the surface, this is really interesting. 4 out of 5.
