Synopsis

It was on a rainy spring day that Chobi became a young woman's pet cat. Though he immediately fell in love with the beautiful and kind person who took him in, he can never hope to fully understand the complex world of humans. Over the course of their first year living in the same apartment, Chobi and his new owner live in their own separate worlds⁠—standing alone yet close together.

She and Her Cat is told from the perspective of Chobi; a cat that was recently adopted by She, an unnamed girl. Chobi is quite a philosophical little cat but his observations don't go past of what a regular cat might think. He notes how the girl cries, but does not wonder why, only that She is perfect and must not be at fault. He notes that She leaves during the day, but does not wonder where, only that the scent of the outside world comes through the door each time. He just knows that they are together, and that's all that there needs to ...

She and Her Cat is the first film from director Makoto Shinkai (5 Centimeters Per Second, Garden of Words). At just under 5 minutes, there’s no plot to speak of, just the musings of Chobi the cat as the seasons pass and his bond with his owner grows. Chobi is a pretty deep cat, dwelling on topics such as love, existence, the limits of his perspective, and his unshakeable faith in the girl’s goodness. He reminded me of Henri the Existential Cat.

Shinkai’s concept is clever, and for anyone who has ever owned a cat, it can be touching. As a cat lover, though, I expected ...

Another 'Shinkai awarding Shinkai's own nonstory book an anime adaptation' not because it deserves it but because nepotism of him being in charge of the animation studio.

Only ~30 min total yet it still manages to be a waste of time.

The cat itself looks cartoonishly out of place and barely does anything while being boringly portrayed as basically just a human mind in a cat's body.
Plenty of the author larping as a cat to self-narrate everything by essentially reading out the audiobook as mostly nothing happens.

What little does happen is just the most generic series of events almost any cat owner goes through overplayed through dumb ...
