Cat Soup is an extremely difficult film to describe, due to its awesome surrealism and almost nonexistant dialogue. It is more a work of art than an anime. There are many underlying themes, such as the transcience of man's existence, but it can be enjoyed without understanding any of them. The plot, though simple, isn't necessarily understandable without being explained. The main character, a cat named Nyatto, embarks upon a journey 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. They encounter many brilliant, mind-bending situations, beginning with a disturbing magic show. (Source: Anime News Network)

Read full review on AniList →Creativity does not always result in a well-thought-out work. Originality does not guarantee that your work will stand out. The use of symbols is a popular stylistic approach for expressing an author’s thoughts indirectly. Nekojiru-sou is certainly creative, original and full of symbolism. I must ha…
Read full review on AniList →This movie shocked me. The blend of surrealism and symbolism intertwine and create what is to me many different emotions. There is no dialogue, at least none with real sound behind it. The entire story is told through trippy visuals as well as visual metaphors, to the point where it leaves a lot to…
