If you're looking for a lighthearted, goofy, and all over entertaining anime, look no further. Inugami-san to Nekoyama-san is a about a girl who resembles a dog (and coincidentally loves cats) and a cat-like girl (who also-coincidentally-loves dogs). These two meet through a mutual friend, and thus begins our adventure. Each episode is about four minutes long, introducing a small conflict or setting, without getting into too much detail.
I can't tell if there is really an overall story. Sure, each episode tells a different little story, but there's no real purpose to it except to make you laugh and squee at the cute yuri

moments. It's a little bit impractical considering somehow each character is named after an animal, but it's fun and enjoyable this way. Also, this school is a literal farm crawling with attractive, flaming lesbians (sign me up). The constant introduction of new characters can get a bit annoying after a while and complicate the main characters' relationship. I'll give it a 5.
Art is gorgeous and well animated. The characters are pretty and simple, just the style that's fitting for the story. The sound is very good. Voice acting is nice, the girls don't have annoying voices and the song at the end is worthy of singing along to each time. Art is a 9 and the sound is a 10.
The characters are pretty stereotypical to the animals they represent. Through this, we could easily connect to the characters. This category definitely earned some bonus points by utilizing this although they had so short of a time to introduce the characters. I feel as though the story should have focused more on our main pair rather than continually introduce characters that had no real effect on the story. Good job, I'll give the characters a 7.
I personally really enjoyed this anime. When you really analyze and rip it apart into these categories, yes, there are some mediocre points. But the purpose of the anime isn't to really make you think about all that. The purpose is to entertain with a good laugh, fun characters, cute relationships, and silly circumstances. It is a very good anime, and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for these things. Overall: 8.
