Synopsis

The story centers around Keito Aoyama, a former famous child actor. Due to a childhood incident, she retired from her career early and withdrew from normal society. Now 16, she passes her days in boredom and without purpose. But one day she runs into a stranger who takes her to El Liston—a free school for high school students like herself, who don't have a place where they belong. Though hesitant at first, Keito decides to enter El Liston and subsequently, she begins a new stage in her life. With the help of her only remaining childhood friend, Taiyou, and her new classmates Rei, Momiji, and Kouichi, Keito slowly finds the courage to open up to others and to accept their support. Will Keito return to acting? Will she find true friends? Love?

This manga tells the story of four friends with different skills (acting, sports, tech, fashion) who because of their individual circumstances couldn't manage to go to mainstream schools and attend an alternative school instead.

I really enjoyed reading about their lives, experiences, feelings, friendship and growth. I loved the idea of their school and how they overcame their individual challenges. It's one of those series that fill you with warmth.

It is a short and easy but a rich story I'd definately recommend. Not to mention the amazing artstyle, which was developed by the artist through the many years of Hana Yori Dango!

The Cat Street is the only 5/5 Shoujo manga i rated out of the 20–25 Shoujo mangas I have read from MAL suggested lists, Youtube recommendations, and random Mangakatana comments.

Story:
If you prefer minimal love polygon and dramas This may be the best option for you.
This story revolves on Keito who collapsed after a major setback in her life.
A tale about how healing can begin and how to taking things one step at a time and it's fine to make a few minor steps back but importantly you're moving forward.

Mixed Feelings
This series started off strong, especially the first chapter which establishes Kieto’s career as a child star and the immense pressures put on her that led to her feelings of ostracization, isolation, and absence of normality. Seeing all that compound and then eventually break her after the betrayal of someone she thought was a fried made for a immediately engaging opening that had me curious as to where the series would go. And within the first half of the series, I genuinely enjoyed it. Even if it dipped into the melodramatic at times given how intense the characters treated innocuous developments, it was perfectly congruent ...
