| So the first anime ever involving catgirls wil never be seen by the public? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catgirl Oh: Based on Han's Christian Andersen's "The Emperor's New Clothes". The film was banned in occupied Japan because it was considered to be too leftist. https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=4930&page=22 Another story: Despite a number of interruptions, he completed the production of The King's Tail (王様のしっぽ) in 1949, but the company failed to cover costs and went bankrupt. Seo then retired from the animation industry to publish picture books. https://animation.filmarchives.jp/en/writer13.html |
