Anime Three of the most heartwarming characters in Chainsmoker Cat: the temp kitten assistants.

So young but so hard working, trying their very best while also trying Saori's patience with her deadline fast approaching. Even under that pressure Saori broke down and apologised after scolding them, because she couldn't be mad at them.

At the end, exhausted with dark rings under their eyes, they remark what a nice person Saori is and vow to practise so they can be more useful to her next time.

There are so many references and homages in the manga that they probably hoped it would be noticed as an Easter egg.

I swear, it's amazing how they captured the look of cats with just one brain cell working overtime.

The short haired one with Yomuko gets featured together often in manga episodes and they are some of my absolute favorite heartwarming episodes…

The art and direction in the anime is so good. That door peephole scene wasn't in the manga as it cuts straight to them sitting at the table.

I felt so bad for them when Saori yelled at them. They were doing their best and are innocent and I want to adopt them because they are cute. Lots of treats for them

They take so long to do anything. It's pitiful, but they are useful.

u/Urbexer49 Hikineko 1h ago

But they do eventually improve by chapter 150.

Bless their cotton socks. lol

u/MuteTalker- 1h ago

Is that when they are leaving after the job? I have only watched the anime.

u/Onebraintwoheads 53m ago

They come back to help on another job, but feel they can't be of more help since there are only so many pages Saori will give them. That's because the main body of the manga is a hentai, and not appropriate for kitties likely under 18 to read, which Saori doesn't tell them. Saori takes a smoke break, the kittens peek at her work and freak but are still resolved to help, so Saori comes back from her break to find them 'posing' (fully-clothed) for reference to some improbable positions so they will be able to draw them. Saori, for once, doesn't perve out, and is horrified by what she's exposed the kittens to.

But she takes the photos nevertheless. Never let good research material go to waste!

They come back having improved, and are very eager to be of assistance:
