What happens

Cat Street (キャットストリート, Kyatto Sutorīto) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Yoko Kamio. It was serialized by Shueisha in the August 2004 to October 2007 issues of Bessatsu Margaret (Betsuma) magazine and collected in eight bound volumes under their Margaret Comics imprint. It was adapted as a six-episode live-action drama broadcast on NHK between August 28 and October 2, 2008. To commemorate the broadcast of the drama series, Yoko Kamio created an additional manga chapter, which was released as a bonus with the September 2008 issue of Betsuma. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
