    OP, if someone clicks on a link like that, it’ll take them to view the community via the lemmy.blahaj.zone Web UI. (PieFed does rewrite links to avoid this, but that approach has its own issues, and the Lemmy Web UI doesn’t.) If you want a link that will take someone to a version of the community viewed through their own home instance, you want !community@instance, so:

    Joined. Immediately. I’ve only seen the trailer and love it already. I’m not a smoker, I just feel like we might get a little Cowboy Bebop/Michiko & Hatchin vibes from it. And I’m not gonna say no to a cat boy (or girl).

    Ah, I see it hasn’t been translated yet. That may be why I didn’t think it was out yet. Hope it gets localised soon. Not that I’m opposed to subtitles, but we’re kind of in an era where anything remotely good just gets translated, and I want to see that business continue to grow. Otherwise, a lot of western anime fans will drop off, and then we’ll only get isekai and other stuff that is guaranteed to print money, rather than quirky stuff like this.

      He might be using the term “anime” loosely here and including not just the animated content, but also the comic-book-style stuff, manga content. A lot of animes come after a manga series meets with success.

      Does Chainsmoker Cat have such a thing?

      searches

      It looks like yes:

      Chainsmoker Cat (Japanese: ヤニねこ, Hepburn: Yani Neko) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by NyanNyanFactory. It has been serialized in Kodansha’s seinen manga magazine Weekly Young Magazine since February 2023. An anime television series adaptation produced by Bibury Animation Studios premiered in July 2026.

      Volumes: 12

      EDIT: I don’t know how large an average volume is, but picking a random one and looking up its ISBN, it has about 170 pages. If it’s representative of the series and there are 12 volumes to date, figure ~2040 pages of content.
