Chainsmoker Cat (Yani Neko) Yaniko is an unemployed catgirl living in a stinking apartment in Nyagamihara with a severely severe nicotine addiction. Unable to hold down a job and perpetually behind on rent, she spends every spare yen on cigarettes, resorting to picking through garbage for wet, discarded butts or reusing old ash whenever her pockets run empty. Despite her friends, sister, and long-suffering landlord attempting to intervene, Yaniko's relentless cravings always win out. Equal parts chaotic comedy and unhinged dark satire, the series dives into the filthy, bizarre everyday life of a catgirl at absolute rock bottom. Through absurd situations, gross-out humor, and surprisingly realistic portrayals of bad habits, Yaniko navigates her surreal urban existence alongside a cast of equally broken, eccentric animal companions who somehow manage to stick together through the haze of smoke.
