Moving on from the post-apocalyptic animes I seem to have been featuring in my previous posts, I will now be reviewing something light-hearted for a change:

One day, while giving offerings at his parents' grave, Subaru runs into a small grey and white cat named Haru, which he ends up taking home with him. Subaru, however, has never taken care of anyone else in his life—can he even take care of a cat? Haru is grateful toward Subaru, as he gives her all the food she wants—a luxury for a cat who is used to a rough life on the streets. But she notices that Subaru can't even seem to take care of himself! Will she be okay with this dunce?
-Plot Synopsis from MyAnimeList
Short and sweet, each episode is shown in both Subaru and Haru's point of views, which is actually nice for a change since we get an insight into why Haru was acting the way she is.

All the side characters are pretty decent too, showing how blessed Subaru is to have a strong support system despite his initial reluctance to interact in people.

Recommending this for the upcoming long holidays, especially when you just want that heartwarming feeling accompanied by a steaming mug of hot cocoa (don't forget the marshmallows!)

FINAL RATING:
Animation - 4 ⭐
Story Pacing - 5 ⭐
Warnings of Blood / Gore / Death - 2 ⭐ (slight warning if your heart can't take seeing a kitten not making it out on its own in the streets... (TT꒫TT))
