My Kemomimi Girlfriend

Can they break the curse—and might newfound understanding spark romance?

■Synopsis
You’ve never been especially fond of having people around—aside from your dependable best friend. So when your parents decide to host two sisters from overseas, you brace yourself for an uncomfortable few weeks.
Determined to be polite, you try to coexist peacefully. But everything changes the moment you discover the sisters mistreating animals. As a lifelong animal lover, you refuse to overlook their cruelty.
Unbeknownst to you, someone else is watching as well: the mysterious Cat God. Outraged by the sisters’ behavior, the deity curses them, transforming them into part-animal hybrids. Their only hope of breaking the spell is to learn empathy for the creatures they scorned.
Can the sisters change their ways? And can you all learn to understand one another—despite your rocky beginnings?
