It has been decided that the new summer anime The Cat and the Dragon will receive a one-week advanced terrestrial and fastest web streaming on ABEMA starting June 27.
The Cat and the Dragon is a fantasy work based on the light novel by Amara, which originated on Shousetsuka ni Narou and has been published into books and adapted into manga by Takarajimasha. The series depicts a heartwarming story woven together by a fire-breathing dragon raised by cats, magic-wielding cats, and humans. The bond that transcends species born between the fire-breathing dragon—who dislikes humans for a certain reason—the unique cats, and humans, along with their gentle daily life and sometimes poignant drama, gained massive popularity. It achieved an unprecedented 1st place in the daily rankings for short stories on Shousetsuka ni Narou, and the series has surpassed a cumulative total of 1.4 million copies in circulation.
