I've been binge-watching Japanese animations lately and was waiting for a chance to watch A Whisker Away (泣きたい私は猫をかぶる or Wanting to Cry, I Pretend to Be a Cat), a Netflix film release June 2020.
My all-time favorite genre is Slice-of-Life, that mainly revolves in a school setting—yes, high school life! I get too busy doing a lot of things even during my teenage years, I prefer light-hearted and cheerful animés that I can finish in a week or less.
A Whisker Away might be cringing when you're watching it with your cat.
Spoiler Alert! Miyo, or Muge, is head over heels with her classmate, Hinode, which she annoyingly showers with weird gestures of love as she continually and publicly shows her interest in him.
Takeaways
While the animation and art is quite good, I felt that the story world is quite small and simple. The story mainly revolves with the main character and left other parts untold.
I may be biased, but I still enjoyed the movie, especially that I just enjoy watching cats.
Might be a so-so movie, but if you like cats and have an hour and half to spare, you might want to check A Whisper Away.
