About Cat Soup

If you are hunting for a new comedy series, Cat Soup (Nekojiru-sou) deserves a look (2001). The setup goes like this. In short: The main character, a cat named Nyatto, embarks upon an adventure to save his sister's soul, which was ripped in two when Nyatto tried to save her from Death. She trails after him, brain-dead.

From there, they encounter many brilliant, mind-bending situations, beginning with a disturbing magic show.

As a comedy title, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. This one is best suited to viewers who want something light between heavier series.

Because it leans on comedy, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. At 7.3/10 it earns a solid reception, a safe pick for fans of the genre. It aired in 2001, which makes it easy to place in the wider anime calendar.
