composition. Masaru Kitao (Death Note, Dances with the Dragons) is designing the
characters. Kotoringo (In This Corner of the

The manga
centers on socially awkward novelist Subaru Mikazuki, who adopts a stray cat.
He names it Haru, and they begin their life together. As with the manga, each
episode of the anime will have both a "Subaru" and "Haru"
chapter that will tackle the story from the point of view of both characters.
Minatsuki and Futatsuya first published a one-shot manga
with the same title in Comic
Polaris in October 2014, before launching it as a
serialized manga in June 2015. Holp Shuppan published the
manga's fourth compiled book volume on January 24. The fifth compiled volume
will ship on December 13.
The 2017
edition of Takarajimasha's Kono Manga ga Sugoi! (This
Manga Is Amazing!) guidebook ranked the manga as #16 in its top 20
list of manga for female readers in 2016. Honya Club's "Zenkoku Shotenin
ga Eranda Osusume Comic 2017" (Nationwide Bookstore Employees' Recommended
