I can really relate to the story line somewhat. I of course, I've never saved a cat prince and been put on such a wild adventure. Yet, I think alot of people can relate to Haru and get insipred by this story, I know I did! Would highly recommend to anyone trying out a new anime or even watching one for the first time.

I really enjoyed this anime, it has a great story line and is about cats (I seem to like cats). Its by the same creator as Spirited away which attracted me to this anime and the cover too. I like the ending but I would really like it to have a 2nd movie, the main character has a very unique personality and also the cats I highly recommend this movie.

A delightful masterpiece by Studio Gibli. Delightful characters that draw you into their magical world, make you sympathetic to the heroine's plight. Witting and eloquent dialogue adds to the richess of the story. Although not as deep and as metaphorical as other movies by the same production house, it still has a subtle life lesson for all who watch it.
Highly recommended.

Maybe all of you have watched Whisper of the heart. So what does this to do with it?
Simply, Two of co-characters are in it, and you'll be surprised to know who they are.
You don't want to miss it although it is quite short compared to other Ghilibi Studio's movies.
The story is interesting, completely catching, hilarious and just a fairy tale. And above all of that, it is about Cats. Not to mention that you want be happy to see cats walk on two feet or paws.
In conclusion, it is fun and worth the time.

Another nice surprise from Studio Ghibli. I never heard of The Cat Returns before and didn't know how made it till I gave it a watch. Upon seeing the familiar blue card I knew it would be entertaining and I wasn't disappointed. Its a rather fairy tale sort of story, certainly something kids could easily enjoy and if your willing to take off your serious hat its a fun adventure. The movie animation is quite good and there a some nice funny parts and some goofy comedy gags. I wouldn't say its epic but its entertaining and light hearted. I've you got (read more)
