REVIEWS

100/100Neko Rahmen, a true lost gemContinue on AniListFirst of all, I wanted to start this review with the definition of cat and ramen
Cat noun /kat/ :
A small domesticated carnivorous mammal with soft fur, a short snout, and retractable claws. It is widely kept as a pet or for catching mice, and many breeds have been developed.
Ramen noun /ˈrɑːmɛn/
(in Japanese cuisine) quick-cooking noodles, typically served in a broth with meat and vegetables.
Now we can start the review...
This anime reminds me of a quote that defines it well :
A gem cannot be polished without friction, nor a man perfected without trials
– SenecaBecause yes, Neko Rahmen is a pure diamond !
Kenji Sonishi is a genious and I think Eiichiro Oda was inspired by him... unpopular opinion but fact. In addition to be hilarious it's also an emotional show, at many times I cried after laughing my ass off. I can say without shame that Neko Rahmen is better than Shingeki no Kyojin in terms of story. Indeed, from the first episode we are already dive into the universe of Neko Rahmen and as the episodes progressed i felt like a Neko 猫 (cat in japanese) besides, it happened to me sometimes during the episodes to meow and lick my hand like a real cat. Speaking of which, i also opened a ramen restaurant.
The opening and the ending are both true masterpieces seperally. And I also really enjoyed the OST in episode 12, it made me cry a lot, it was so beautiful.
Musicotherapy tips : if you know someone around you who is deaf, give him a airpods pro from Apple and make him listen the opening of Neko Rahmen and the music will cure him of his deafness. I don't know why we don't use this technique more often to heal deaf person...
Besides, it's no coincidence that taishou is a white cat, look at this Wikipedia link.
As i said Kenji Sonishi is a genius, he had it all planned from the start⚠️Important note : The airpods pro from Apple are very important, otherwise it won't work !
What to say about animation... Amazing ? Incredible ? Wonderful ? Magnficient ? Perfection ? I had heard of a rumor that Mappa and ufotable vere very jealous of Think Corporation's work. In my opinion, it's understandable because it's a small studio with low budget that outperformed animation giants. By the way don't trust the average rating, bad ratings are from mappa and ufotable.
It's more than an anime, it's a philosophy of life, a medical treatment, a source of inspiration... I think this should be watched by preschoolers because today i'm feeling like there are not enough anime which help to be a better person and today's children are tomorrow's citizens.
