Nukoduke! (Manga)

I think this is a bit of a long shot, but I really like this manga and it's not licensed and I can't find an existing licensing topic.

So this is a happy little slice of life story that follows the main character Yuuya and his friends as he lives with two half human half cat pets called Nukos that he picks up after they were abandoned. The manga is being released digitally in Japan through Manga Park and there's currently 18 volumes in print (with volume 19 coming soon). I don't think JNC has anything from this publisher, so might be a bit of a hard sell.

So this slipped by me at some point, but the license was picked up by One Peace Books and volumes 1-5 are currently available.
