NEWS: Cat Sh*t One's English-Dubbed Episode Now Streaming

and that was terrible. The japanese was much better, with Packy sounding like a badass and not this monotonous robot.

wasn't going to buy it anyways, as Mario said above me $30 for 22 minutes LOL.

In fact, despite it having originated in Japan, the entire thing seems more like something better suited as a cartoon of western-origin, especially because of the use of CGI and animals.

I somehow doubt Pixar or Dreamworks would ever make a movie this dark/gruesome/serious (despite the cute bunnies). So in that regard, it could really only have been done in anime

But seriously $3o for only 22 minutes and just one episode is not worth it to me.

TitanXL: The day Pixar/Dreamworks actually makes a movie that isn't ultra squeaky clean and isn't G rated is the day some one wins the lottery four times in a row, consecutively. That said, it's likely to never happen.

Anthropomorphizing animals to tell war stories is totally stupid... y'know like Maus. Horrible idea, don't know why it's one of the most hard hitting and influential comics out there.

Maus is partially a parable- there are reasons for each nationality to be represented by different animals. Plus it has a story that matters, one that could be told with human characters and be good (Better in your opinion- worse in mine)

Cat Shit One is none of that. It really is pointless. The animals are anthropomorphized according to a gag and some vague national stereotypes that aren't consistent. The story is some random mission you aren't asked to care about past the most superficial reason. If the same story was pressented with human characters with the same lack of framing you'd have no reason to watch. So they're bunnies-- how unique and novel-- but meaningless. Instead of enhancing the story the fact that the the hardened soldiers are cute and fluffy bunnies literally and figuratively dehumanizes the seriousness of the situation. It's a kill or be killed situation.... but ohhhh wook at da widdle cottontail!

I think you missed my second paragraph because I agree with you, save that I believe there is a specific group of people who want to see "real" weapons in action and that fluffy bunnies might be a harder sell to the sort of person that actually cares about what is bolted onto those rifles. Really now, The first statement in the paragraph admitted that I was joking about denigrating Maus and even the actual statement acknowledges how important it is.
