Some words from the cast:

Kei Umabiki (Quality Assurance in Another World) directs, with Gigaemon Ichikawa on series composition and Go Suzuki on character designs for the 100studio production.

Here’s how VIZ describes the manga:

Although he may appear rough-and-tumble, Jiro Azuma’s compassionate side emerges when it comes to the furry critters he can communicate with. But Jiro’s soft spot for animals gets him in major trouble when a suspicious stray cat fuses with him, granting him exceptional power but also dragging him into humanity’s hidden battle against powerful Japanese spirits, mononoke.
