posted on by Joanna Cayanan
The manga centers on An, a child who longs to have a pet cat or dog, but is sure her family would not allow it. When she is told by a monk that her wish would be granted if she prayed to a temple, she immediately finds a stray cat abandoned in a box.
Mizushina launched the manga on CoroCoro Online in October 2023. Shogakukan published the manga's first compiled book volume on January 26, and the second volume on June 27.
Mizushina launched the Kiri Moya Biyori (Clear Skies! for Kiri and Moya) in Kodansha's Evening magazine in July 2021. Kodansha published the manga's fifth and final compiled book volume in April 2023.
Mizushina ended the Itoshi no Muco (Lovely Muco! or Lovely Muuuuuuuco!) manga in 2020. Mizushina launched the manga in Evening in 2011. Mizushina launched a new Itoshi no Muco manga titled Daisuki! Itoshi no Muco in Kodansha's Comic Days app in September 2023.
The manga inspired three seasons of the Lovely Movie: Itoshi no Muco anime shorts on Fuji TV. The first season ran for 21 episodes from July to December 2013, the second season ran for 22 episodes from April to October 2014, and the third season ran for 25 episodes from October 2015 to March 2016.
