Okay this is really not an Otome game. I checked. And it's fine! It's fine because... Because they used a cat to bring out emotions from readers!!! So if you are a pet or ex-pet owner... This will both hurt and elate you at the same time. There are two endings and no, you don't need a guide for them... Unless... Unless you really can't take a hint at the end... As in they literally give you a hint on how to obtain the "longer" ending. I can't even say anymore than this as going into this will give parts of it away. But I can say this: you ever wondered what it's like to see through cat's eyes? Also, when a cat enters your life........ That's it. Oh and there is a mystery on the second ending. Have fun with it. =^-^= ^.^ =3 (Meows of thanks yous!)

A cute game about you, having been turned into a cat by a fabulous 'chicken?' and overseer of the world. You get to interact with 3 really nicely written characters, I particularly enjoyed Sekikado's bonus episode. The game also has a little mystery for you to unravel - if you're having problems getting through that, the game will offer you the options of having easy or vague clues. I would definitely recommend this game for some heartwarming fun. I felt very loved as a cat, haha.

A THOUSAND MILLION TIMES YES. THIS VN IS EVERYTHING YOU WANT FROM THIS KIND OF GAME. You are literally a cat. There is an easy and clear way to beat the game. You can keep playing it forever just to witness the cute scenes among all three characters. They're all so sweet, and they all have such heartwarming energies to them, that this game just became incredibly healing to play. My life is now complete after this game. I will live and revel in this happiness of knowing this cat game exists. Thank you a million times, I will try and learn Japanese just to be able to play this in the og language. It's great, TRUST ME IT'S LITERALLY SO CHEAP GET ITTTTTTTT. YOU'RE ALREADY LOOKING AT IT AND KNOW IT'S CALLING TO YOU. GET ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT. GET IT GET IT GET IT GET IT GET IT GET IT GET IT!!!!

I still can't figure out what body part Sekikado was talking about
Not recommended Aug 4, 2025
Some charming elements - especially the chicken - but ultimately it's too shallow a plot with too stilted a translation.
