From the description I thought this was going to be a serious show dealing with accepting cats, family concerns and running a restaurant, instead this follows a lot of human girl cats doing cutesy slice of life tasks. For fans of human girl cats doing everyday things in a relaxing setting.

Yea, I'm going to give it a "Recommended" rating even tho on first glance this clearly looks like a typical "For fans" that pander to a specific audience.
So I watched it expecting to hate it. Surprisingly, it is no worse than similar shows except this has cats replaced with humans. It's even better because the story makes use of the fact that these girls are cats - Not girls with cat ears, but cats that look like humans and can talk.
Would recommend even to people who don't follow this genre, or to show non-anime-watchers what one aspect of anime is like. Who knows, there might even be converts like me. (Go Nekopara) Personally this would go onto my must-watch list (since I watch a lot) but not important enough to be a must-watch for most people.

Just nicely moist, not too wet not too dry. mou uruocchau
This is your sweet indulgence in a neko paradise. Lay back, enjoy the daily antics of a group of catgirls, each cutely delicately designed, with unique likeable and yet funny personalities.
You will have all sizes as well on the fan service department. Though you should not be worry that its too racy, it's the family friendly version (unlike the wellknown VN). Its main attraction is actually being cute anyways
Plot wise rather simple & straightforward episodic with sprinkles of comedy and cuteness but though for new comers it lacks proper intro to the girls. Art wise pretty good; in that it has that cute snuggy feel in warm soothing palettes along with nicely drawn catgirls
Join in if u're fan of catgirls (which of course tags with fans of fan services) that wants a lounging relaxing watch for the extra sweetness & cuteness in your evenings. Well balanced in that aspect. 7/10 for me, thanks for the pleasant experience

It features a roster of cute catgirls doing, well, cute catgirl stuff. There is no much of a plot and every episode features its own story, but it is peaceful, heartwarming and overall nice action. Fanservice is relatively balanced, and because of its source material, I had hoped it would be a little wilder. Still, not much of an issue. For me, said issue comes with the male protagonist and Cacao, the little aqua-colored catgirl. The first one, which supposedly is the harem lead, barely appears. Like, almost never. His sister, Shigure, is way more featured than him. As for Cacao, her appearance and background made me believe at the beginning that the story was going to revolve around her finding out about her origins, however, she quickly becomes a sideshow. That triggered me somewhat, because it could have been a good plot device.
Other than that, this was a good, somewhat underrated, niche experience. Recommended for nekomusume fans.
