<TV Anime "Yanineko">
In a world where humans and beastfolk coexist, there is Yanineko, a beastperson who lazes about smoking. Broke! Hopeless! A good-for-nothing! He threw away manners and morals along with his cigarette butts. Reeking of smoke, grimy, lazy and trashy. Smoking, exhaling, idly chatting, burning out — and yet living reasonably fulfilling days. The manga that went viral on social media now takes on the unlikely challenge of a TV anime! Please watch over the smoke-filled everyday life of these somehow lovable trash cats.
Broadcast: From July 2, 2026 on TOKYO MX and BS11 every Thursday at 24:30 (AT-X from July 25, every Saturday at 24:30). Simultaneous streaming on various platforms after broadcast.

<Necry Talkie Profile>
Formed in 2017, led by Asahi, alongside Mossa, Fujita and Kazuma Takei. In March 2019, Ikuka Nakamura officially joined, completing the current five-member lineup. Mossa's instantly captivating voice, Asahi's cynical lyrical worlds, and melodies brimming with a love of music that never go quite as expected are utterly addictive, drawing attention well beyond the band scene.
