The anime will premiere on July 4 at 11:56 a.m. JST and will air on TBS and 28 other channels. The first three episodes will get early screenings in Japanese theaters from June 14-27. Wednesday Campanella is performing the theme song "Akaneko."
The anime stars:
- Kenjiro Tsuda as Bunzō.
- Noriaki Sugiyama as Sasaki
- Michiyo Murase as Sabu
- Rie Kugimiya as Hana
- Saori Hayami as Krishna
- Kurumi Orihara as Tamako Yashiro
Hisatoshi Shimizu (The Gymnastics Samurai, episode director for Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood) is directing the anime at E&H production. Michinori Chiba (Mobile Suit Gundam 00, Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans) is designing the characters and Tōru Kubo (Garo -Vanishing Line- producer) is overseeing and writing the series scripts. E&H production and Good Smile Company are producing the anime.
The MANGA Plus service is serializing the manga in English, and it describes the story:
Meet Tamako, who's found her way into an interview at a ramen shop run solely by cats. When the feline manager asks if she likes cats, Tamako admits that she's actually more of a dog person...only to be hired on the spot! But her job description isn't quite what she expects ? rather than serving ramen, she's now a dedicated cat caretaker...?!
ANGYAMAN first posted the manga on Shueisha's Jump Rookie! site in November 2021, and Shueisha's Shonen Jump+ service then picked up the manga for serialization in March 2022. It began its regular weekly serialization that October, and Shueisha published its seventh compiled book volume on March 4.
