A Whisker Away is an anime movie that centered on a young girl named Miyo Sasaki. Miyo is going through life not feeling like she belongs as a human. She loved a boy at school named Hento but she is awkward around him. So, as a form of escape from regular life, she puts on a cat mask that transforms her into a cat. She visits Hento in her cat form and feels the love that he has in his heart. The lines between the cat world and her human form starts to blur by a series of events that might change her life forever. I like this movie and definitely recommend it, especially if you ever felt awkward in life and in love. There are parts of the movie that reminds me of the Studio Ghilbi classic The Cat Returns. The movie also deals with the family dynamic as well as their love for their pets.
