The heartwarming fantasy comedy follows a king who suddenly turned into a cat one day. The king's servants are now bossed around by a free-spirited cat.
Morishige began serializing the manga My Neighbor Seki in Media Factory's Monthly Comic Flapper magazine in October 2010, and the 10th compiled book volume shipped in Japan in March 2017. Vertical Comics and Kodansha USA Publishing released the manga in North America. The manga was nominated in the 5th Manga Taisho Awards in 2012. Morishige published a new chapter for the series in April 2018. The manga resumed serialization on August 5. The manga inspired an anime in 2014, and Sentai Filmworks released the series on home video. The manga also inspired a live-action show.
