Since premiering at Cannes earlier this year, Yōko Kuno and Nobuhiro Yamashita’s “Ghost Cat Anzu” has often been likened to Hayao Miyazaki’s “Spirited Away,” and it’s easy to appreciate why. For one thing, anime films begin with a young girl — in this case, a purple-haired 11-year-old named Karin — becoming separated from their parents at a pivotal moment in their lives, only to wander into a wild (but pointedly matter-of-fact) fantasy world full of spirits who see her as something between a novelty and a nuisance.

In “Ghost Cat Anzu,” however, that world is still very much our own, and the heroine’s coming-of-age isn’t contingent upon finding her way back from the underworld so much as it’s contingent upon…

Works because it gets that the most endearing part of cats is that they're kinda dickheads.

90% of ghost cats quit gambling right before hitting a big score

the concept of the cat that you rescued as a kitten never dying and eventually becoming a guy who talks and drives a moped and has a paying job is like the platonic ideal of pet ownership

Eu já sabia que Ghost Cat Anzu seria muito fofo, mas não imaginava que iria ser tão deslumbrante visualmente, fiquei realmente impressionado com o estilo visual dessa animação, eu amo quando filmes mais infantis conseguem ser extremamente divertidos de assistir, alguns momentos, mesmo sendo bobos, me tiraram boas risadas. Aparentemente, no lugar onde se a essa história, as pessoas reagem a certos tipos de seres diferentes de maneira comum, então, quando um gato falante meio humanoide entra nesse templo, sua presença, para além da estranheza, vira algo normal. A garotinha Karin, por outro lado, mesmo estando perto desse gato, parece não se importar tanto com a presença de algo quase mágico ali, isso porque seu próprio pai teve que deixá-la…

GHOST CAT ANZU is a fairly-animated, light GKIDS film with an uneven plot that struggles to nail its humor, pacing & emotion. The titular cat is often amusing but there’s a rehash of jokes due to his size & self-entitled attitude that eventually lose their luster. Some may find it meaningful & cute but I expected much more.
