Sosuke Natsukawa: The Cat Who Saved the Library
For Nanami, a book is much more than just a pastime. Reading allowed her to alleviate the loneliness caused by family discord and overcome the limitations caused by severe asthma.
That is why he often visits the library, where he experiences a new adventure with each new book. When she notices that books are disappearing from the library shelves, she is particularly intrigued by a man in a gray suit whose behavior seems suspicious to her. Should you follow him and find out what he's really up to? In this she will be helped by the cat Striped Tiger, who speaks and warns her of the dangers that could befall her. The bravest of all, the two will go in search of the missing books following a terrifying trail. Will Nanami and Tiger overcome the challenges that await them during this adventure?
