Nyankoi is you classic harem anime with a dense but kind MC. The only thing unique to this would be the concept of how he needs to do a hundred good deeds for cats or else he would turn into a cat. That would be bad because he is allergic to cars. Though this anime is generic and has no progress with the plot, I still found this quite funny and enjoying to watch. All the characters in this anime are nice and funny, including the cats. Overall 7/10. I would rate it a 6 but I love the concept of the cats and the cats personalities. I wouldn't mind a season 2 but it been 13 years so probably not. If this show was bigger on the romance and showed more depth with the characters I would have rated it a 8.

I can't write a good introduction. Forgive me.
Why did I chose to watch this anime?
- harem
- take a break from some serious-plotted anime
- got tired of 'watching only 7.5+ scores anime'
- stress relieve due to my upcoming finals
Story:
(insert synopsis here). Pretty good idea for a story line. Comedy is fine. I think the execution could be better since I was expecting much more focus on the main character's everyday 'cat request' curse thingy. For the harem and romance part, well, pretty generic but not the worst. Same old cool lines and stuff. Mochizuki lacks of screen time BTW. Come on, no love for senpais?
Art:
Great art, animation and drawings. Beautiful characters designs too. The 2009 art style really brings me back to the past though. Nothing to complain much here.
Sound:

I was taking a break from anime for a long while, and I figured I would try to get back into it with Nyan Koi! serving as a gateway. I admit, the first few episodes were much better than I expected, and I was excited to watch more. I was actually having fun, most of the time I just force myself to laugh at comedy anime like this, but this one had me genuinely smiling and laughing.
However, as I continued with the rest of the series, I was pretty disappointed. The main appeal to me, was the humor, and that's how it should be, Nyan Koi! being a harem and comedy after all, but I couldn't help but feel like the comedy portion of the anime was dragged out and eventually got repetitive. The gags and jokes in the beginning, that initially made me laugh, were used over and over, lessening the eff…

Ah, Nyan Koi. One of my first and favorite anime that I had ever watched as a kid when I was being introduced into anime. This will be a long one, so bear with me folks!
Story: (6/10)
A BRIEF SUMMARY: (You don't have to read this you know. Just read the synopsis!) One day, the main character Kousaka, Junpei, a high school student, walks home after from school. On the way home, he sees an empty can on the road 'waiting' to be recycled. Instead of picking it up like 'any' bystander would do, he decides to kick it instead into the trash can. Unfortunately, the can whirls out the trash can, and breaks off the head of the cat statue that happened to be there. On the next day, he is cursed as he knowingly can hear and talk to cats. To lift this curse off of him, a cat Tama tells him that he mu…

WHAT THE TACOS IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE?
I actually enjoyed and loved this anime!! I've watched it like 4 times or so. One of my favourites! (I'm canadian so it is "OU" >.> ) This anime revolves mainly around cats & comedy :D
It's suppose to have romance, and it does but it doesn't overpower the anime with JUST ROMANCE so don't get confused and be like "ughh another anime with a random guy and all the girls want him" because IT IS and it turned out pretty cool! Asides from other animes (shounen or harem whatever) this one comes up with reasons .___. not just randomly falling in love cus he's hot! T-T
It has a solid story, I liked that it was different or idk haven't watched all animes but for me, it was original. The art is pretty neat too.
I'm giving it a 10/10 because it is AWESOME. I…

It is a story about a man, his cats, a harem of typical anime girls and a curse. Okay, I will try a little harder. The story is revolves around Junpei Kousaka, an average highschooler living with his mother, sister and a pet cat (we learn his father is away working but little else is said). On the walk home from school one day he accidently knocks the head of a statue of a cat deity and is cursed to turn into a cat unless he fulfils the wishes of 100 cats.
The story order and events are pretty standard. However, not everything about this was as typical as you would usually expect from a harem anime. For example, some the character development was actually the best parts of this anime, such as that of Junpei and Kanako (an old childhood friend of his) which develops for a minor relationsh…

While this anime is not one of the most popular comedy ones out there, I had a great time watching this. An anime about a high school student who gets cursed by the statue of the cat Jizou and suddenly has to grant the wishes of a 100 cats isn't very appealing, although it's really worth a shot.
Story (7/10)
The story doesn't look very appealing and I wasn't expecting much of it but boy, was I proven wrong! They managed to keep the plot interesting until the end. There weren't any ridiculous plot twists (Alright, actually there were but they were funny as hell). There weren't any forced jokes in there.
Art (7/10)
Nothing outstanding but it doesn't burn your eyes.
Sound (7/10)
There isn't an enormous soundtrack for this anime but with the very few tracks that they had, they still man…

Nyan Koi is a comedy anime with a somewhat typical story, decent art and sound, good characters... However, none of the above makes this show memorable. There is something else special, very special about this anime. It's very very very relaxing, funny and hilarious.
This anime is about a boy who got cursed for breaking a cat statue. He has to help 100 cats or he will turn into one. Along with helping them, he also helps some girls and they in turn have some feelings or him. The ways the story is told, they ways the character act, the ways the events happen... are extremely funny. In fact, this one has to be one of the most funnies anime ever existed till date.
In conclusion, if you are looking for anime with action, adventure, mystery..., go look somewhere else. This anime has no breathta…

So have you ever wondered what would happen if you pissed off a animal’s shrine? They are just like human shrines and would curse you of course. That’s pretty much how this story starts. A guy breaks a shrine for a cat and so is cursed by being able to talk to cats. Wouldn’t be so bad if he wasn’t allergic. Add this to a slice of life school life anime like this and well…. you have Nyan Koi.
What kind of family would keep a cat when their son is allergic to them? At least get him some meds or something for it because it’s really taking over his life. They are jerks in that aspect. Almost all the people around him are jerks to a pretty big extent. Take for example Kanako who is a perfect example of a Tsundere character. She always fights with him, even when she finds out what she hated hi…

Telling the tale of the unfortunate Junpei Kousaka, the show revels in this poor guy’s misfortune. After knocking the head off a neko-statue, he is cursed by a deity and told he must both worship cats and also appease 100 kitties or he will be turned into a feline himself! This plot line takes a backseat to the developing harem Junpei finds forming around himself, even though he is only interested in the coy Kaede. Addressing all aspects of male fantasies, the barrage of moe, tsundere, kindergarten friend and twins that the unappreciative male finds flocking to him somehow seems more believable than many other similar ecchi titles.
As the episodes tumble aside effortlessly, the writer's come up with new and creative ways of torturing the poor protagonist; from an aggressive challenge from…

If you are looking for a nice comedy with some romance than this is it.
I watched Nyan Koi! a few weeks ago, and I have to say it was actually very good. I thought it was funny with a good story. You might think its weird watching something about talking cats; then you may be correct. Although talking cats are kind of weird it makes sense to the story as well as making it funny and very enjoyable.
Overall if you have a bunch of free time, or looking for a nice romantic comedy and cant decide if you want to watch this... Then watch it!

"My days of misfortune have only just begun!"
- Junpei Kousaka
Story: 7/10
The story is pretty good, well-paced, and well thought out. The only fault I found with the story is that it just ends. Very little is resolved, and the creators pretty much say “Read the manga to find out more.” And to that I say, “Oh, I will.” As of the time of me writing this review, the manga is still ongoing.
Characters: 8/10
The characters are varied and have their own reasons for being here. Keep in mind this is a harem-themed series, so they all share a mutual love interest. But they all like Junpei for different reasons. Whether it is due to him helping out, being childhood friends, comforting another due to fears, or one of them just having a misfortune fetish, they all like him for different reasons an…

First of all, i must said, this review based on my opinion and the enjoyment i got from the anime, if you think i am wrong, well,,, thats just my opinion.
and i am gonna just straight to the point without any babbling in my review, so, here we go!
Nowdays, harem is the kind of mainstream genre that easily can make it into a top anime. since, what do you need is big boobs, pantsy scenes, and of course beautiful girl.... well, thats the truth.
Including Nyan Koi, this harem anime is maybe like another harem anime that you've ever watch, BUT WAIT! how about harem + cat? hmm..... thats WORKS!
STORY : 8/10
The story involves about the man who is been cursed by cat statue because of some accident, and for erase that curse, that man aka Junpei, must grant 100 wishes from cats or he will turned…

A new anime to add to my recommended list. I was already excited about it just by reading the description.
The main story is original, ironic and causes some really funny situations. On top of that the episodes are filled with standard high school plots such as pool/beach, school trip, Christmas, ...
The biggest achievement of this series' story is its end. Unlike most other harem-comedies this one has a decent captivating and 'epic' ending.
The conversations are hilarious, both with cats and the girls and especially with both at the same time. The voice acting is well done and all characters fit in the story perfectly (except one maybe).
I have no complaints about the art. Everything looked great.
When I found this anime, I thought I had finally found another good series and fortunate…

The Best harem/romance to be created.
i mean, let's face the fact's here, people:
the story has a harem made up of:
1. a Tsundere Childhood friend
2. A a Pair of twins
3. the Girl that the main character is infatuated about.
4. the tomboy girl -----------------
if their is anything that i would suggest to change, it would:
to animated the rest of the manga of this anime. it would not even have to follow the storyline, and in my opinion, the should skip some parts. if people are only watching the anime and not interested in the manga, then i believe they really are not going to enjoy watching this series at all.
if their was a OVA series created to animated some of the rest of the manga. this will have been moved up to my #1 Harem anime of all time. in my opinion, it would Almost impos…

I stumbled upon Nyan Koi! when I had nothing else to watch. My opinion on this series is that it wasn't the best I have seen. When I first read the plot, it seemed really interesting, but I found the anime to be more annoying than exciting. I am not going to deny that I did enjoy this anime somewhat. The only parts I really did enjoy watching were Sumiyoshi's and Nagi's parts. The rest were ok, but not that interesting.

Like cats? You'll love this. Hate cats? You'll probably still like this. Now I'm not a cat fan but heck this show was pretty legit. The story isn't anything too grand but it kills time. It's kind enough so it can just be viewable and not require the person to be a huge anime fan. If I could I'd recommend this anime as a good start to pull people in to the genre. Cute and kind enough to watch and not too sketchy for your buddies to question your mentality. Heh

Harem animes are about as common place as action flicks in America, hence I am not usually enthused by the genre personally. However, I did get some laughs out of this one.
If you can't already tell by the synopsis, this a story that finds humor in irony. The story itself is nothing special, but the characters were what made this more enjoyable. Characters that were seemly opposite in actions vs feeling, pairings, and find enjoyment in gloomy situations.
Overall it wasn't a bad anime, and I would recommend for someone who likes to watch a lot of anime and was looking for something more light hearted for the moment.

Well, I just finished Nyan Koi! and well I thought it was really cute at the beginning, near the end I was just watching it non-stop to move onto something else. (I like to finish what I start, okay?)
Other than talking cats, there's really nothing new here. It's just a generic anime about a guy who for some ungodly reason has a plethora of cute girls are who are into him. Like a lot of harem anime, there are moments of big-breasted-ness, panty shots, accidental groping and purposeful groping (girls groping girls) but most of the comedy in this series is supposed to be from the interference of Junpei's life from the cats, which he is severely allergic too. A lot of the anime is focused on Junpei juggling his need to lift his curse by helping cats and doing everyday things while the girls…

Story:
The story of Nyan Koi! was decent. It is basically a love story with comedy incorporated into it.The protagonist Junpei Kōsaka has a crush on a girl who loves cats yet he's allergic to them. From reading this one line summary you can probably identify the irony from the plot. As mentioned above, the story was decent, but for me the funny comments here and there are what made the show interesting. It follows the archetype of one guy having a crush on a single girl and then having numerous girls falling for him. Just to make it interesting, his crush is on an airhead blonde who isn't aware of his feelings and eventually as the plot progresses she begins to develop feelings for Junpei. After watching a variety of shows you can probably predict a vague version of the story. There aren'…
