The cliche of anime with catgirls is so all encompassing that I never really thought about it. But I just realized I’ve only seen five animes with catgirls in them. Any others? Any of them worth watching? Dragon Pink (hentai) The Story of Monica (Hentai) All Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku Escaflowne Di Gi Charat I also want to mention two series with young cute girls wearing cat ear shaped hats. (What’s up with that?) Yumeria Zatch Bell ---

_Chobits_ also features cat-eared girls (as a plot point, even!) [A rather extensive list](http://www.cedrik.net/anime/gallery/catgirls/girls.html) ---

I don’t know whether it’s a boy or a girl, but there’s also the cat bus in **Tonari no Totoro** (My Neighbor Totoro). Does that count? And for a cat boy, what about Kyo Sohma in **Fruits Basket**? ---

My fave catgirl anime Dragon Pink was mentioned in the OP. Then somebody nails Words Worth! OK, how about Fragile Heart? It’s a hentai that has an android who has to wear a catgirl suit. The ears are your standard hairband rig, but the tail is held in place by a butt plug (There’s a hole in her panties to accomodate it). And the android is a sex slave android who has to wear it in public as she goes to and from her client’s house. Sadly, though, it’s not a very good hentai. In the sense of being a bad one. One of the Cool Devices operations, “Lover Doll” features a girl in a catgirl outfit locked in a cage. But it’s one of the weakest eps of Cool Devices and all she does throughout the ep is have sex (most hentai have at least some semblance of plot and characterization). I’m sure a few other catgirl scenes will come to mind. ---

TANK POLICE has two, the Puma sisters(who do a little striptease in episode 2). I’ve heard Outlaw Star has one. ---

Whoops, the girl in the cage in “Lover Doll” is a rabbit girl. The catgirl comes into the room and molests the rabbit girl. Then some guy comes in and has sex with the catgirl. Ain’t that always the way… ---

There are also a couple of catgirls in Tank Police (and, I think, in the sequels, though I haven’t seen those). ---

> [@HPL](#): > > I’ve heard Outlaw Star has one. From Wikipedia : > [@](#): > > Aisha Clan Clan is a female Ctarl-Ctarl spacer. She is a dark-skinned catgirl with a drinking problem, a very large appetite, and the strength of ten men, depending on the tides of the planet she is on. Aisha was originally in charge of locating the Galactic Layline for the Ctarl-Ctarl Empire, but after she unknowingly allowed for Hot Ice Hilda to escape her government ordered her to stay behind on Blue Heaven to look for clues as punishment. Aisha finds out that Gene Starwind is connected to Hilda and tries to pump him for information; however, Gene knows nothing of the Galactic Layline. Later during the Space Race, after Aisha was able to trick Gene into letting her on board the Outlaw Star, she finds out that the Macdougall Brothers have more information on Hilda than they do. Aisha then decides to join the crew since they are the ones who were indirectly responsible for her demotion in the first place. She can also turn into a full cat; a white tiger IIRC. There’s also that female announcer from YuYu Hakusho, Koto; I think she was a catgirl. ---

In Excel Saga, sometimes Excel turns into a catgirl randomly… but just for a second at a time. ---
