This isn't the first time Yanineko "Chainsmoker Cat" was attacked. Back in 2023, there was a lot of online and targeted harassment against Nyannyan Factory, the creator of the story.
The harassment got so bad, including an attempt to "cancel" the manga, that Kodansha had to release a statement about it, WITH threats of legal action against the most malicious.
Some of the Japanese manga readers were so grossed out due to the visceral, raw, unromanticized addiction spiral + heavy grossout humor + zero pandering... that they engaged in that harassment campaign. This was mixed in with professional jealousy from other rival manga authors who felt it was disgusting that a manga like Yanineko became popular while "their" more "cultured" creation did not.
It's niche, it's weird, it's gross, and you don't have to like it, but it 100% has the right to exist.
And seriously... stop with the harassment campaign against it. It's just another rerun of the same BS from 2023 now in 2026.
