The Masterful Cat is Depressed Again Today follows the quirky everyday life of Saku Fukuzawa, a young woman who hasn't quite managed to get her life in order. Everything changes, however, when she takes in a stray black cat named Yukichi — though calling him an ordinary cat would be a tremendous understatement. Yukichi is enormous, standing taller than Saku herself, and he possesses a remarkable set of domestic skills that most humans would envy. He takes immense pride in his cooking, and the mere sight of a supermarket sale is enough to send his whiskers into an excited flutter. While Saku struggles with the demands of daily life, Yukichi steps up as the most capable and dedicated housemate she could ever ask for. This heartwarming and comedic series explores an unlikely cohabitation between a somewhat scattered young woman and the surprisingly dependable giant cat who looks after her.
