A Man and His Cat, Vol. 3

Today’s post is on A Man and His Cat, Vol. 3 by Umi Sakurai. It is 144 pages long and is published by Square Enix Manga. The cover has Fukumaru and Kanda on it as Kanda plays the piano. You do not have to have read the first two volumes but it will help you understand the story a little better. There is no foul language, no sex, and no violence in this manga. The intended reader is someone who likes sweet, slice of life stories. The story is from third person of mostly Fukumaru but others adding insight into different characters. There Be Spoilers Ahead.


From the back of the book- Fukumaru's in the hospital and in big trouble! This turn of events leaves Mr. Kanda in big trouble too, emotionally speaking. Both the man and the cat know what it's like to be lonely, and as the days pass in a whirl, the reason Mr. Kanda weeps from time to time gradually becomes clear... 


Review- More of Fukumaru and Kanda’s daily life together as they heal and love each other. Fukumaru has to go to the vet and that causes Kanda all kinds of worries. Fukumaru is still worried about Kanda rejecting him but is slowly getting better about it. We see more of Kanda's life before Fukumaru and what happened to him after his wife suddenly died and we see more of the people in Kanda’s life. All in all a good volume that only made me cry a little at the end. Kanda is going to help a friend who has be given an abandoned cat and the friend doesn’t know what to do. I love this series, it really captures the life of having pets with all the joys and pain. I highly recommend this series. 


I give this volume a Five out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I bought this manga with my own money.
