A cat… but he’s a boy?! “Neko to Spica” by Hatoya Tama (鳩屋タマ).

Let me introduce Core Magazine’s drap COMICS DX, “Neko to Spica”!

The following is quoted from the back cover. Please note that the impressions and review touch on the story content!! If you just want a brief idea of what it’s about, I’d be happy if you read only the red text and highlighted sections.

“I don’t have any money, so I’ll pay with my body…!”…―――

Kota takes in a mysterious young man named Kuro who was sitting outside his home.

He was originally the type who disliked getting involved in trouble, but he can’t help being won over by Kuro’s look that’s impossible to ignore, and decides to let him stay for a while.

Then, he’s told that as thanks for taking care of him, Kuro—who knows nothing about basic social norms—will pay him back with his body…?

A cat-like boy?!

Among Hatoya Tama（鳩屋タマ）’s many wonderful works, this might just be the one where Kuro’s eyelashes are the most gloriously dramatic—he’s unbelievably cute (＾＾). Even on the page, his hair looks soft, fluffy, and silky, his eyes sparkle as if they might spill over, and it’s the perfect choice whenever you’re in the mood to read about an irresistibly cute boy.

Of course, it’s not just about cuteness—this work also includes a touch of fantasy. It turns out that Kuro, whom you thought was human, actually… well, if this happened in real life, it would be a truly surprising development. And that part is incredibly adorable too (＾＾)

Kota gets completely won over by Kuro’s face, while Kuro is utterly smitten

Personally, the more devoted the couple is to each other, the more it makes me swoon—but these two are a little different. Won over by cute Kuro’s looks, Kota sinks deeper and deeper into the rabbit hole. Even though he’s supposed to hate getting involved in trouble, he finds himself more and more drawn in… and eventually, he ends up spending the night with Kuro.

Feeling guilty as he dotes on Kuro, who knows nothing about common sense, Kota eventually decides to live together with him for a while. And of course, there’s no way these two wouldn’t get all lovey-dovey…!! It’s just too cute…!!!

This title also has a sequel, so I plan to feature it on the blog again in the future (＾＾). Please look forward to it~! From the lovey-dovey cover to the very last page, it’s overflowing with sweetness, making it a highly recommended read for anyone who loves lots of cuddly, affectionate moments!!
