Tokyo Information Net | Japan Anime | JAPAN ANIME NEWS | Interview of Anime "Kuruneko" Director Akitaro Daichi: "The camera keeps in line with kitten's movement. It follows the kitten and moves together with it at the same pace. It is like an introduction implying that 'here begins the story of kitten. Let's walk together with it'. The audiences can enter the anime world easily due to this kind of opening. It seems that few anime works placed such serious emphasis on the opening before. Seiji Kameda composed the theme song and Seiyu Nozomi Sasaki wrote the lyrics. Nozomi Sasaki is assimilated into the kitten world 'Laugh'. She also sang the demo song. At that time she went all the way to the studio which has kitten, and did the recording while playing with kitten. She even modified parts of the lyrics when she played with the kitten. So we can say that this theme song is tailored to kitten world (Laugh)."
