However, after a monotonous day at school, she returns to her long-awaited haven—home with her cats Maa, Shi, and Ro! With their unique personalities, the three possess bodies similar to those of humans, retaining the ability to speak and communicate.

Don't overthink it. Succumb to the nyanko. After years and years of painstaking research, Japan's finest at studio EMT² emerge with the perfect girl-to-kitten hybrids. In fact, these "nyankos" are so cute that we are not worthy to witness them for longer than two minutes at a time! I don't know what exactly it is, but the fact this series even exists just makes me happy. Nyanko Days is nothing but a quick rush of serotonin in cute chibi nekogirl form. Main character Yuuko is a sweetheart, quite relatable to many in her wallflower personality, and her friend Azumi helps supplement the series with a nice, blossomingfriendship (complete with her own nekogirl!) As no series is complete without a rival, Ran introduces herself as such, though of course she has a softer side to her otherwise competitive spirit! Mostly importantly, each of the kittens in Ma, Ro, Shi, and Elsa each express their own individual personalities and quirks, leading for a diverse cast of kittens to cuddle!
No, it's not a literary masterpiece, not even close, but that's not the purpose. Nobody buys a cat and expects it to recite Shakespeare or Descartes. You watch Nyanko Days to feel good. You watch it to forget your troubles. You watch it to see cute cats doing cute things.
Stress from work? School? Break-up? Just angry at the world? Nyanko Days, my friend. Your pain and discomfort will melt away as you're comforted by four of the cutest beings ever drawn. There's something genuine in each and every expression that lets you know everything will be okay.
It's just hard to explain. If you like this kind of über-kawaii content, you're going to like Nyanko Days. Two minutes of your time for a rush of happiness? Count me in.
The only outstanding flaw of the series is how short each episode runs, being only a minute and a half when you exclude the outro. The mini-episodic format the creators elected towards greatly affects the flow of the series, with some episodes forbidding us from even seeing our cute companions in favor of the girls. It will prove one of Japanese animation's greatest tragedies that Nyanko Days didn't get the proper run-time it deserved.
With all of that in mind, there is only one thing to take from this completely serious review: Nyanko is love, Nyanko is life.

Imagine if all cats look like dwarf-sized loli nekos and can speak human language. If there was such a thing in reality then I'd probably freak out. But in the world of anime, anything can become possible. The world of anime can make you question your true gender, turn the things you hate into things that you will love, and do other weird shits and get away with it. Anime is truly weird. But that's why I love watching anime. Nyanko Days is a short anime about girls vibing with undersized loli cats. honestly I don't know why but I feel stoned after watching thisanime. I don't even know what to write on this review anymore. I just want to know when Elon Musk would finally develop the genetically engineered cat girls so i could finally get one- wait i think i just contradicted a point i made on my first paragraph
uh anyways. Each episode is only 2 minutes long so in total its 24 minutes. You either watch this for the moe or watch it because why not.
Recommended to those who are questioning their own life.
sorry if this review was bad for your eyes.

For me, Nyanko was the disappointment of the season. That said it was the disappointment of the season as soon as it came out that the episodes were 2 minutes long rather than something longer. And as it turns out it happened to be massively detrimental to the quality of the show. Usually the shows best suited toward being shorts are those that are comedic gag series; there are other shows that work but for the most part, it doesn't suit most shows. While Nyanko is listed as a comedy I didn't find it particularly funny. I don't even think it is much of acomedy, sure it has it's moments of comedy but that's not it's focus. Rather, Nyanko is a show that lives off of its cuteness. And while that can be digested in 2 quick minutes the show failed to make me attached to the characters which, in my opinion, is necessary to get the full cuteness in. Otherwise what makes these cat girls special? Why not look at other animations or other pictures that can be found scattered around the Internet? As much as I love cuteness, for it to be a worthwhile show I need to have some basis for that cuteness, something I can attach to that enhances that cuteness. Nyanko does not have that.
It's not just that the characters don't get developed, it's that the characters feel dull and cliche. The black cat is studious and reserved, the orange cat is a playful tomboy, the white cat is the sweet one, the rich girl's cat is a tsundere. They're nothing more than these traits nor do they ever break out of them. They feel so obvious and manufactured that I have a hard time actually liking them. The only way they are set apart from their archetypes is that at least they do act like cats. So, If you really like cats you'll probably enjoy them. But if you're looking for more than that, this show does not provide.
There isn't really a plot but really that doesn't matter. If you're here expecting a plot you're in the wrong place, and that's not Nyanko's fault. It's not very notable in anything else besides the OP, which is quite CUTE. You know what? Go watch the OP. You get 30 seconds of pure cuteness and a catchy song. It's well worth a watch or 12. But as for the show unless you're as much of a cat lover as the MC I'd suggest you skip it.

If you are like me who likes to watch many times some anime just to relax and have fun this is the right anime. I dare say it's one of the best, where you always watch every happy and many (VERY MUCH) fluffy moments (100% of the time is cute). At first the protagonist is a shy girl who, instead of relating to other people, prefers to keep her cute kittens, which are really cute (have I already said they are cute?). It has 3 kittens and they are easily memorable, so in the first speech of each one you already know exactlythe personality of each one, which makes them from the beginning striking and lovely characters. What really marked me in this anime is that exactly ALL the conversations and situations of all the episodes (released so far) are extremely funny and fluffy it seems until I'll melt away from such cute.
The best point about this anime is that with only 2 minutes in length they do a awesome job to makes you cling so much to the characters
Just a personal opinion: this is one of the types of anime that I really wish it had more than 700 eps with 20 minutes minutes long.

Don't mind the score. It's 100 % worth it to watch this. Who doesn't like some neko's talking sweetly ? Pros : 1) Great characters 2)It's cute 3)Voice acting is top notch 4)Good character designCons : 1) TOO DAMN SHORT !! :( :( :(
2)Doesn't have an op
Worth it ? : It's a great show with only 2 mins per episode there is nothing to lose here.So just watch it :)
I rate it 6/10 just cause it's a short series it gets a little low score.
come on mal more long ? come on mal more long ? come on mal more long ? come on mal more long ? come on mal more long ? come on mal more long ?

This is just the cutest anime I’ve ever seen! Short, simple, and sweet for a perfect cozy anime watching day. :) Nothing serious, just a girl with her kitties that make her happy as well as everyone watching. I love the art style as well which makes the characters even cuter. I wish the episodes were longer though and I hope they make either another season, film, or anything else with these cute little kitties. I definitely recommend this for anyone who just wants to watch a Kawaii anime short when they’re feeling down, need a pick-me-up, or just bored and want something new! If youenjoy cute, slice of life anime, this is for you!

The story and characters are good, especially considering it's 2 minutes each episode. There's a limit to how much story and characters you can fit in that amount of time, so I think the content was actually good. It was enough to make me think "oh this is cute". It's mostly about cute nekos and the everyday life of a teenage girl. The art is simple yet cute. I personally like it as it helps emphasise the cuteness of the series. If it was going for a moe direction, I feel the art did well in this. The music is also nice, it's quite catchy andfits the cute theme it was going for.
I personally really enjoyed this series. It was very cute, with the nekos and the comedy brought on by the female characters. I thought it would only focus on the nekos but it actually also looked at female characters and their moe traits.

Nyanko Days successfully gives a show full of kawaii-ness especially for neko and nekomimi lovers. From the colourful nuance feasts the eyes 'til kawaii 'human' characters and nekogirl. There's nothing superb with the visualization, but it is plenty enough for bringing us the feel of kawaii all over the place. Adapted from 4-koma manga, the anime adaptation is last for approximately 2 minutes per episode. Therefore, observing from the length of the series, there isn't much thing to explain for the story and characters traits. In a few episodes, Konagai Yuuko and her school life dominatesthe scenes while in the other hand and other occasions, her three adorable cats take control. All of the characters are characterized as cute, humble, real teenagers in their puberty (who concerns of little things), has a weakness but still "cute". We can find inbetween-girls problem too, like rivalry. The cats, I believe are presented well the real cats traits of the species even though I never met those cats in real life. Sometimes the story is more into the pets rather than its owner (and that's how I like it more lol), but don't worry there are also the human characters too take place. There is no complicated matter in this short series except the Yuuko's school life at first as the introduction only.
There is only one soundtrack for Nyanko Days, Nyanko is L♥VE! by every❤ing!. It's catchy and buck me up. The seiyuu(s) singing in nasal voices and fun rhythm. It's getting more fun while watching the background scenes as the song is playing.
Nyanko Days, that worth 8, saves me for a few hours after watching other series or doing my assignment. The joy vibrates as I enjoy the cats do kawaii things. Moreover catchy theme song that's fit for the show to cherish the viewer.

Don't have much time to watch anime? Love chibis and cats to an unhealthy degree? Have a huge affinity for overused character tropes with almost zero character development? Then you have found your muse right here... So really there isn't much of anything to the story, but that's because the episodes are TWO MINUTES LONG (including the OP) so anyone would struggle to get much of any content in with that timeframe. This is probably the lowest score I've given because considering the length, it is the laziest writing that you could do. We'll come back to that later though... Art was decently good. The cat girlchibi thinga-ma-doo's are cute and everything, but most of the art is nothing great or groundbreaking in any way. With a series this short, you could at least do something unique or stylistic (like Space Patrol Luluco) but it's just the same stuff you see in nearly all anime.
Voice acting and the music seemed fine, not much to comment on but the stuff that was there is fine. Not much to comment on really.
And now we're back to that story thing. With only having to write for a 2min (including OP) episode, you could probably get away with more unique characters than we're given. Since you don't need to make up hardly any dialogue to finish the series, you could take more risks or do something different to stand out. The MC is bland, the cat chibi girl things are cute but stock personalities, and the other cat loving girl is like a Miyuki clone from Lucky Star. For a normal length series, you can understand having to hover around certain archetypes and such since there is a lot to pad out. There was almost zero deviation though, the characters couldn't have been more stock.
Believe it or not though, for what was actually there, I enjoyed it. It just seemed unsatisfying since it was so short (again, TWO MINUTES PER EPISODE INCLUDING OP), it almost felt like more of a waste of time since it was so short and didn't go anywhere. Beware though, the sugary cuteness is strong with this one...might give some of you guys diabetes if you aren't careful. Maybe that's why it's so short? lol
Ehh, this is definitely a skippable anime, but doesn't eat up much time if you wanna give it a try. If there's nothing else to watch or you're like really into chibi cat things then this may be for you. Just very mediocre...

Nyanko days is incredibly cool. To begin with, why is Nyanko Days so good ? Because it's simple, short and enjoyable. You don't need an incredible plot when you can just have velipaka and... velipaka. Probably one of the rare anime that promises to give something at the beginning and actually sticks to it 'til the end : it promised velipaka, and gave you velipaka. It's difficult to rate that anime using these standards but let's explain my rating anyway: Story : 1 There is no story, so it's impossible to review something inexistant.Art : 8
the animation is correct, the cats are well drawn, nothing else to ask for.
Sound : 9
"okaeriii"
Best voice acting ever.
Character : 10
My global marking is going to be terrible if I don't mark it good, character's aren't interesting, they're just cool and velipaka, thus they deserve a good mark (velipaka creatures).
Enjoyment : 10
Nyanko days will cheer you up, whatever the mood, whatever the stress, it makes you forget about all of it (at least for 20min).
Overall : 10
Nyanko Days is honest and relaxing, the author didn't bother to design interesting characters or an interesting plot because, well, frankly it doesn't matter much. If you are only looking for an amazing story with complex characters and storylines, then don't watch it, you probably won't enjoy it. Well actually you might, because it's nyanko days. If you don't care, do watch it, you won't regret it. It is damn enjoyable, doesn't last too long (no honestly, literally 23 minutes or so on Ytbe).
Personally, it will never be among my favorite anime because it can't, there's much better out here (watch Gintama by the way), however there's also much worse, it clearly deserves the mark I gave it because it's chill, velipaka, cheers you up and gives you what you came for.
This anime deserves much better than a 6.
EmanuelBonito
Perfect anime to watch when you are bored. It is short, funny and cute. This anime is a Master piece considering it's purpose and limitation. 2 min ep you can't expect more than that. Story: well it's a 2min/ep there... story obviously is not the focus. Art: Just Fucking Cute... all of them Sound: Well I'm not an expert in sound... I could hear, so it is 10 Character: Again, 2min/ep you can't expect character development or anything, but all of them are cute and lovely in a certain way Enjoyment: Laughts and Ownt, those are the reactions watching this show
Anime-General
I'm going to be upfront with this review, I don't like this anime but I can't fault anyone who does like this anime for what it is. A cute fluffy anime about anthropomorphic chibi cats and their owners. Its just that and nothing else for two minutes each episode. The animation is fine for showing simple colors and cute character designs, as do the voice actors as do a decent job. I'm not a fan of either the opening and ending songs as I found them both annoying to listen too by the third episode. There really isn't much story as its mostly about the charactersand they barely have any development and are just cliches of character traits. Outside of the regular human girls all the cats have one archetype and never go beyond that. With one being shy,one acting like a tomboy, one being stuck and snooty and one being cute and lovable. Then we have the human cast, who are there and that's it, they have no real distinct character traits other than being typical cliche anime high school girls.
As I said before I am not a fan of this anime, but it's not because I don't like cute fluffy anime, I like cute simple shows just fine. I just wished that the anime offered something more than surgery cute girls and chibi cat girls. In short the anime can pretty, but with no interesting characters to make up the lack of story I just find the anime to mediocre at its best. If you do like simple fluff in an short anime series and don't care at all for the faults I just listed, then that's fine and this anime a watch if you want.

Nyanko Days is both addictive and ridiculous at the same time. There were moments where I found myself laughing not at the story, but at the way how the characters (cat girls) look. What’s even strange to me was that it was all mini-episodes to see what it was like to explore the world as the kittens, but wonder why the show isn’t based more on them than the supporting characters. I’m not suggesting that this is not “MOE” by any means, but the only reason to watch this show is just to admire the slapstick of the cats as a whole. To focus this as justan exhilarating story would be like trying to suggest that a show about kittens should be “Stranger Levels” type-storytelling. There is not much to say about this anime, except it should be enjoyed for thinking what it would be like if cats could talk.
I’ll still be waiting for the dog version of this show, if they ever create it.

Do you like cats? Would you like to see kittens anthromorphized into cute anime girls? Then Nyanko Days is the short anime for you! And by short, I don't mean it's just twelve episodes long, but that every episode runs for two minutes. That's it. Moe anime tend to get a bad reputation, mostly for putting too much emphasis on cuteness over substance, and that's understandable. Especially if they drag on for much longer than they need to. But twelve episodes of cute kittens having fun, with every episode only being two minutes long is the perfect length to digest something of this caliber. Thestory centers on a girl, Yuuko Konagai, who is shy and doesn't have friends at school. But she has three kittens at home, named Maa, Shii, and Rou, and they're all the friends she needs. She loves cats, and later, she befriends another girl, Azumi, because of their shared love of cats. Sometimes the anime focuses on the girls, and sometimes it dedicates time to the cats and their shenanigans.
With this show being as short as it is, both in its episode count and how long the episodes run (Only two minutes, including the ending song), there really isn't much to talk about. The animation is bright and colorful, and the cats are all adorable little toddler girls. The soundtrack isn't really memorable in any way, and the ending song is so moe, squeaky, and saccharine that I think any diabetic who listens to it will die from a sugar overload. Actually, the whole show is super sugary sweet, but its episodes running for under two minutes actually manages to be its saving grace. If Nyanko Days had its episodes go on for half an hour, or even ten minutes, it would just seem dragged out, making it dull and boring.
That said, its short length gives it other issues as well. All of the characters are little more than moe blobs with very little personality other than one basic character trait. Yuuko is the shy girl, Azumi is the popular rich girl, Ran is the hot-blooded rival who wants to one-up Azumi for no reason (We never learn why), and so on. Ran in particular doesn't really have a reason to be in this show, as she only appears in two episodes and that's it, and all she wants to do is one-up Azumi. She's literally a complete waste of space and animation, and she's not even given any sort of character arc at all, so there's no reason for the audience to care about her at all. Also, Yuuko's naming choices for her cats are uncreative as hell. They're literally the first syllables in their breed names! Were you really too lazy to give them more distinct names? Furthermore, the author seems to think having the cats do things like know how to read, watch TV, draw, and use a remote control will make them cuter, but this just goes against the fact that they're...y'know, cats! Giving cats human traits doesn't make them cute, it's just lazy writing.
Eh, even with those flaws, Nyanko Days is a cute little time killer for if you want to waste half an hour. But it doesn't have much to offer other than cuteness and moe cat girls, and I can recommend several anime about cats that are much more substantial, such as Chi's Sweet Home, She And Her Cat: Everything Flows, and My Roommate Is a Cat. But if you do want to watch this, just have some insulin at the ready.

Nyanko days while it does have flaws, and it is like every other slice of life anime it is a guilty pleasure of mine. Usually slice of life moe anime are usually hit or miss, so why did I like this one? The story is calm, and heartwarming it doesn't have any drama or horror which is a popular element in anime. The soundtrack is a bit annoying, but you'll get used to it. I really like the character's design. The characters are sweet and likable. I overall enjoyed it, but just like all anime there are cons. Do to it being a slice of lifeanime, and not having any real plot it does get a bit boring, and full of fluff. Also the animation is generic it could do better. But I would still recommend it to slice of life moe fans as it's cuteness will put a smile on anyone.

Nyanko Days is a slice of life comedy series about a first-year high school student and her three adorable little catgirls. The story isn't much to write about, it's you can probably predict how it goes early on, and while there technically is a story here it's rather insubstantial, which is further exemplified by the much shorter than usual episode length with its 2-minute episodes means that the entire series is about the same length as an episode in most animes. However, that's not necessarily a bad thing since the episodes are well paced and never outstay their welcome and in all honesty, the cuteaesthetics, adorable characters, and humor make the anime worth watching despite any shortcomings.
If you want something to go "Aaaawwww" over in 2-minute burst this anime is for you, but if you're looking for a deep story with lots of action scene and drama you're better off looking else were. Overall I give this anime a 6/10.

Yeah, so I probably shouldn't write too long about something that you will finish in about the same time you finish reading this. I watched this anime today, on Christmas day, and have no current show I am watching. Then comes along an anime about a cat owner who owns the kind of cats that most anime fans wish they could own, literally being little girls that have some cat features and like the same things they do. No sense in going over a character synopsis this time around, since there's not that many things going on. The cat girls are adorable, the length of the animeallows you to not get annoyed by it mostly being them acting like cats and being adorable and the main girl lead is comical to watch as well. The soundtrack is calm, but I do wish it was a released one so I could listen to a certain song from it again. Most anime seem to have a problem with keeping their soundtracks closed off these days, which really sucks since there are so many songs I want from certain ones. Your best bet is to usually splice them out manually, but I digress.
I found this, watched it and wrote a review for it all within a half-hour. This anime is indeed bite-sized and I'm surprised no websites just bundle all the episodes into a single watch, since you could finish all of it in sixteen minutes and having to click for the next episode every minute is annoying. A lot of them do this with Miyakawa-ke no Kuufuku, which is also another bite-sized anime, so I don't know why Nyanko Days has them separated everywhere.
You will most likely enjoy this if you love anime having cute things, but even if you don't like that, it's only little over fifteen minutes in length, so you won't really be saving much time avoiding it anyway. You might as well watch it if you haven't found anything in a while, since I'm sure this one could brighten up anyone's mood.

Lasting the length of a single standard episode, Nyanko Days is cute and fluffy, and gets by entirely on being cute and fluffy. In fact, there's so little substance that it's a struggle to even talk about the show beyond its substance. It's not really that it's bad per se. It's mindless and cute stuff to turn your brain off to for about a half-hour, so it's perfectly serviceable in that regards and serves its function in that way. It's also incredibly cute which no one can deny. It's hard to criticize because it effectively serves its function and arguing against that function just feels likeit comes off as weird and nitpicky. But one can afford to be nitpicky over a series that is, effectively, nothing.
When you really get down to it, Nyanko Days is the most anime thing an anime is. Anthropomorphized cats, big eyes and cute faces with characters fitting nicely into archetypes, constant sugary cuteness, loner girl starts to hang out with non-loner girl... it manages to be incredibly exhausting in the very short time it runs, because it feels so much like other similar anime. I don't need originality, but I need something that's derivative with something to offer, and there's nothing here. Not even the cats are cats I can care about. Basically the visual equivalent of "in one ear and out the other".
Part of this is definitely due to the fact that every episode is two minutes long, with only about 70% of it being actual content due to a five-second long opening slate and a 30-second long ED (approximately). There's almost literally no time to even absorb anything is happening, because everything is so rapid-fire that it washes over incredibly easy. Even multi-part episodes suffer from this. It would have honestly been better to split it up into four-minute episodes, or even eight-minute episodes, because at least then you can realize an episode is happening. Even poor slife-of-life anime get by with so-so paced 24-minute episodes; two-minute episodes where a thing happens is beyond the pale.
It does some things serviceable at least, in a way that doesn't make this anime feel like an actual waste of time. Yuuko Konagai and Azumi Shiratori may not be great characters, but they're done fine enough with at least a bit of interest that it's fine (and also have cute interactions together, more cute than anything else in the show). The, uh, arc with Ran Iketani, the girl who's scared of cats, is amusing while it lasts. The ED should be annoying but it ends up being catchy (I still have it stuck in my head even now) and at least has serviceable visuals for it. Aurally, it has a bouncy and bubbly sound design (but especially when the cats are the focus) that it makes up for the lackluster art. Two of the four cats are distinctive. The anime is so short that even if you find it dreadful, you won't have even spent half-an-hour on it. The voice acting was okay.
Really it's hard to name what I like about it when there's so little to care about that I have to stretch myself to name positive aspects. But it's enough to not make it a bad anime, just really mediocre. A lot of it comes down to its awful pacing of two-minute episodes, but even if that were fixed, it'd still be really unmemorable and nothing more than a blip in my memory to remember to possibly check out the manga, if I could ever find the time to do so. So it has some benefits, just not many. If you're that into slice-of-life that you need to watch as much as you can from the genre, or have a spare half-hour you can't spend starting/continuing another anime, then you at least have this. Otherwise, there's too little of value to even passingly recommend. But hey, cats.
darkzuko26
The anime is about a friendless girl called Yuko, who is in love with their three humanized female cats: Roo, Shii and Maa. With the developement of the story, Yuko achieves make a new friend called Azumi, a rich girl who also has a female cat called Elza. The episodes only have a 2 minutes duration, but actually, the real duration is 1' 30'' because the ending/opening (yes you read right, opening and ending are the same), last 30 seconds of the episodes which make a total of 2 minutes. When i looked for further info about the anime i discoverd that it was labeled asa "seinen" because it's first appearance was in the seinen magazine "Monthly Comic Alive" but this is more a shoujo than a seinen.
The anime ended as a "non season 2 anime" (at the moment), it is worth to watch it but is such a shame that the entire season can be watched in half an hour, the story could be much better and the plot is enough to make a good shoujo, but i guess that the imagination or the budget was very low. Anyway, if your doctor says you only have 30 minutes to live i highly recommend to spend that 30 minutes watching this anime, you can thank me in the next life.
