Chainsmoker Cat: Japanese Fans Decide the Little Sister Is Just as Codependent

Chainsmoker Cat's official channel posted a short scene where the protagonist's little sister, Imouko, tells her "Honestly, you really can't do without me" — with a smile — and 590 comments later, Japanese fans have decided that smile confirms she's just as dependency-wired as her chain-smoking sister. The second-highest comment (4,258 likes) names the joke outright: one sister addicted to cigarettes, one sister addicted to the sister. From there the thread splits over whether that smile is sweet or a little unsettling, with some commenters digging up a manga chapter title to argue her type is settled either way. A few disagree entirely, arguing she's actually the one who ends up getting hurt.
