Nyaight of the Living Cat, a 12-episode survival horror-comedy, has arrived on Crunchyroll with both English dub and subtitle options. The series, animated by Studio OLM, plunges viewers into a bizarre post-apocalyptic world where an overabundance of cat affection has led to a feline virus, the 'Nyandemic,' turning humans into cats upon contact.
The story follows Kunagi, a memory-wiped man fleeing a cat cafe, alongside the cafe's sibling owners and a customer. They must navigate this surreal, cat-dominated urban landscape, blending elements of survival horror with dark, absurdist humor and a touch of parody. The premise offers a unique twist on the zombie apocalypse genre, focusing on the consequences of humanity's obsession with its feline companions.
As a finished series from Summer 2025, viewers can now experience the complete 12-episode run. Studio OLM, known for its work on franchises like Pokémon and Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation, tackles this unconventional adaptation of the manga.
