I thought we knew Anna was not a Catulus at this point? Or maybe it was just implied.

I really like this story, but so far it’s feeling like it’s setting up these really great arcs but it doesn’t follow through and fizzles out of them pretty quickly....

I'd say: Too. Many. Characters.
There are only few stories that benefit from a large cast, I don't think this one is one of them.
I like world-building and expansion of the lore... but I feel this story lost track of what it wanted to tell.
The premise had me interested, but nowadays I only check the updates to see if the original MCs appear and if their subtext romance moves along...

It just feels like they’re there so we can look at cute cat girls which isn’t a bad thing but the story started off with such promise. Now it’s trying to jam pack all these things so it’s going through arcs just to get through the next one.

The lack of emotional connection to the main characters also throws off the whole thing. The girls at Anna’s cafe feel like the only thing tying them to the others is the fact that they are Catulus. Which I know is the point of the story but the lack of depth is too obvious to ignore.

The friendships Yuki and Ayano formed with Kozue and Mimika felt organic. The inclusion of Marron highlighted how hard it was for Congenitals to find a connection with someone. Anna’s presence solidified the hardship and also created tension.

Now the tone and over all story seems to have this back and forth between showing how the mains develop, showing amusing things/cat girl shenanigans, and showing other cat girls. It’s disjointed, picking one thing at a time instead of finding a way to harmonize and do everything together if that makes sense.

Anna tbh I don't know if that's okay.

Ikr?! The whole album being in colour was a blessing in itself. First time they've shown her mother too, she had a choker but I couldn't notice ears, is she also a catulus?

From what i can see from the latest chapter, because yes Yuki's mom will finally make a real appearance, Yuki's mom have human ears so she is most likely a human.

I want to see more of yukkis mother☺️

As the album said Yuki didn't like wearing it, so she probably wore it as encouragement for her to do so. Or she is a catulus and using the same stuff that other one uses to make her appear human.

Cute

Wait a minute. Didnt the Early chapters staten the Catalus only activates when you reach a certain age?

Like with her human ears litterally Falling off and such?

there are special case that the person already infected with catulus syndrome since they were in the wrom. Yuki is that special case and those that are like that have even more cat like behave than those that have it at a certain age

That's the reason she's called a congenital Catalus several times in the series. Congenital means an illness that effects someone at birth.

It may have been a while But im sure that the Early chapters contradicts this

According to the early chapters Catulus - or at least some of them - can retract their feline bits (and, presumably, pop out vanilla-human external ears to compensate so they don't promptly go deaf...) by concentrating so she could merely be better at maintaining focus than her spaz of a daughter.

But that could well be Early Installment Weirdness that got quietly retconned away as the author's idea of the setting solidified, of course. Certainly hasn't been mentioned for a long time. And she could simply be wearing a perfectly normal one as a gesture of solidarity given Yuki apparently resented hers (and what it represented) for a long time.

Nope. Most Catulus contract the disease sometime during their childhood, but not only does nothing say it can't be congenital, absolutely EVERYTHING in the series indicates or just outright states that Yuki has had it since birth.

Um... no, the early chapters do not say that. The only way to look fully human is to take the professor's medicine. Which wouldn't have been available as early as Yuki's childhood.

Ahem. Unless that's supposed to be her trying to hide them by combing her hair over them, which does not seem tremendously workable (or even physically plausible given the size of the ears) and would do preciously little to hide her rather substantial tail anyway...

See: early ideas discarded when the author's setting concept solidified.

Given the brush in her hand, that seems to be exactly what was happening. She flattened her ears to her head and brushed her hair over them.

The sad part is we probably won’t see a chapter where Ayano tries to one up Kitty...

i swear to god the ladybug badge is an actual freaking jojo reference, though it'd make more sense if she returned to Japan from Italy instead of America

Kitty's dad is one of the guys that play with Yuki!!!!! How frickin awesome is that.

I thought the same thing, should a figured that out with Kitty being a random Yank thrown in the mix but it slipped past me heheh
