I remember owning this series on VHS tape back in the day, and I remember the series fondly. So when I had the opportunity to sit down here in 2023 and revisit "Bannô Bunka Nekomusume" (aka "All Purpose Cat-Girl Nuku Nuku"), digitally nonetheless, of course I jumped at the chance to do so.
However, I have to say that I found it extremely difficult to sit through the six episodes, despite of them being less than 30 minutes each. The show just wasn't as entertaining as I remembered it to be. Or perhaps my taste in entertainment has just changed dramatically since the early 1990s.
The storyline was a bit too crammed with immature contents and that kind of made it somewhat of a test and an ordeal to sit through "Bannô Bunka Nekomusume".
The version I watched here in 2023 was with the original Japanese language audio, thankfully. I do think that the VHS version I had back in the day was an English dub. And I really dislike dubbing in general, as I prefer to watch things in the language as intended.
"Bannô Bunka Nekomusume" is perhaps aimed at a much younger audience than I find myself in nowadays, and thus I found it to be a less then mediocre experience to sit through the six episodes.
And having revisited it here in 2023, I can in all honesty say that I am not going to do so again.
My rating of "Bannô Bunka Nekomusume" lands on a four out of ten stars.
