Studio Colorido announced an original anime film titled Nakitai Watashi wa Neko wo Kaburu on Thursday, scheduled to open in theaters on June 5. The main cast, staff, a teaser visual (pictured), and a promotional video were also unveiled.

Synopsis
Miyo Sasaki, nicknamed "Muge" meaning "infinitely mysterious," has a bright personality and is full of energy at school and at home. She is also in love with her classmate Kento Hinode. Miyo tries repeatedly to get Kento's attention, but he takes no notice of her. She realizes that the only way to get close to him is to transform into a cat, but at some point, the boundary between herself and the cat becomes ambiguous.

Mirai Shida (Karigurashi no Arrietty) will star as Miyo Sasaki and the cat, Tarou. Natsuki Hanae (Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso) will voice Kento Hinode.

Staff
Director: Junichi Sato (Tamayura), Tomotaka Shibayama (Hai to Gensou no Grimgar assistant director)
Script: Mari Okada (Sayonara no Asa ni Yakusoku no Hana wo Kazarou)

Oh hey, another romance film in the works, excited to see how the romance plays out in this one


Ah who am I kidding, the romance in romance movies are laughable at best save for sequel movies (ala Tamako Love Story, Chuunibyou etc.) or a few Ghibli films


Really digging the colour palette used though

On one hand, it's directed by Junichi Sato; I've only seen two things directed by him and one I gave a 10/10, and I plan to watch most if not all of his other works.

On the other hand, it's written by Mari Okada, who I've given a 6/10 at best, and I'm very uninterested in her works.

They've worked together before on the Amazing Twins OVA, and it's the least frustrating thing Mari Okada has ever written; maybe it's because Sato held back some things from the writing, or because it lacked enough episodes to piss me off.

I might just watch it for the visuals from Studio Colorido, but I don't just want to sit through it and give it a 6 like with Maquia, Kiznaiver & Dragon Pilot.

I'll just hope for the best.

Okay, this certainly looks great! I’ve heard Penguin Highway was quite the success, so here’s to hoping this’ll be another treat for the fans!

Synopsis sounds really adorable but gives off a light bittersweet vibe, totally a fan of those! Mari Okada on board too makes this a must-watch!

Hopefully, there’ll be screenings of this in my place.

On another note, Natsuki Hanae-san sure is getting a lot of roles lately.

damn, they got a guy who hasn't directed anything good since 2003 and two clowns together for a movie made by a studio that only makes mediocre movies. haha i am very excited for this one


He directed Hugtto Precure one of the best shows of all time only a couple years ago.


It's sad that it's ignored because it's a kid show, like all kid shows.

Mari Okada is becoming a problem. Or has one. After I have read the synopsis, I said "this is something Mari Okada would think of doing". Guess whom I have found in the "scriptwriter"? No need.

Cats are overused in anime for no reason. They aren't even cute. There are thousands of more interesting animal in the world so why a cat? Why not a ferret? It would be 10 times better

What's with the over-protection to cats? What did they do to you to benefit such biased protection? No, cats are fucking hideous I can't stand it I want to kick it whenever I see one. They are screwing with the wildlife all around the world and human are even helping them in doing so with their over-protection. It's ridiculous how such an useless piece of garbage that do nothing in their whole life can just go away and kill every other creature around when they have plenty of food already. This species is the plague of our world and it seriously need to extinct or else I'm doing it myself. I have the right tool for that in my garage.

This looks pretty jolly. Definitely ready for this one.

Hey, to each their own, but your reaction seems pretty extreme. You're not actually planning on killing any cats right? Cause that'd be fucked up.
