Synopsis

What if the greatest warriors, emperors, and statesmen throughout Japanese history were actually fickle domestic felines? From ancient sorceress Queen Himiko unifying tribes to warlord Oda Nobunaga ruthlessly storming battlefields, pivotal historic milestones unfold through feline impulses. Instead of executing solemn political treatises and tactical military maneuvers, legendary heroes get sidetracked chasing laser pointers, taking spontaneous afternoon naps on tatami mats, and sharpening their claws on irreplaceable imperial furniture. Despite hilarious feline blunders, historical events surprisingly reach their famous conclusions.
