posted on by Joanna Cayanan
Manga author Manavu Kashimoto launched a new manga titled Tantei Neko Machida (Detective Neko Machida) on Shogakukan's Weekly Coro Coro Comic online magazine on Tuesday.
The unorthodox mystery manga centers on the mysterious detective Neko Machida and his assistant Myako, who solve difficult cases using their unique deductive abilities.
Kashimoto debuted the original Croquette! manga in Shogakukan's Monthly Coro Coro Comics magazine in 2001. The manga inspired a television anime adaptation in 2003.
Kashimoto launched the Croquette! Black Label sequel manga in Shogakukan's CoroCoro Aniki magazine in December 2017. The manga moved to the Weekly Coro Coro Comic online magazine in 2022, and ended in May 2025.
Kashimoto's Shuriken Tonma manga was featured in the 40-Shūnen da yo! Coro Coro All-Star Shōgakkō OVA in 2017. Shogakukan shipped the first compiled book volume in September 2016, and the series concluded in the fifth volume in March 2018.
Kashimoto's Henoheno Kappa Sensei manga ended in its eighth volume in 2024.
