The first promotional video for Nyaight of the Living Cat has arrived, offering a glimpse into OLM's adaptation of the post-apocalyptic manga. The trailer highlights the "Nyandemic," a bizarre outbreak that transforms humans into cats after contact with infected felines, setting the stage for a survival-horror narrative with surreal comedic undertones.
Produced by OLM, known for their work on franchises like Pokémon and Yo-kai Watch, the series centers on Kunagi, an amnesiac man fleeing a cat cafe with survivors. The trailer hints at the chaotic urban environments and the desperate struggle for survival against both transformed humans and the lingering threat of the pandemic.
The PV showcases the blend of action and suspense promised by the series, focusing on the immediate aftermath of the outbreak and the core group's flight. With a 12-episode run slated for Summer 2025, Nyaight of the Living Cat appears poised to deliver a unique take on the survival genre, driven by its unusual premise and the distinctive visual style hinted at in the trailer.
