Worth watching once Warning: Spoilers
Hello fellow Humans,

This show is essentially about a young teen who like most Japanese men doesn't know how to be around a girl. This girl just happens to be from outer space. She is a sexy cat girl with massive assets. If all you watch is anime just to let you know she is roughly double I's those are not DD. Japanese anime loves to call DDs but in reality they are more like II's. I am sure a ton of Japanese men are very confused when they get a girlfriend and find out real cup sizes.

At any rate this show is funny and has its moments of hilarity. It's of course mostly about making the main character uncomfortable as he is out into a lot of situations apparently japanese men find awkward. Being from California I never had this issue around girls. It wasn't hard to speak to a girl for me or my friends. We had lots of friends that were girls and eventually we all partied together and well things happened like most parties when your in highschool. Must be a cultural thing. They react to holding hands like we react to kissing. They react to kissing like we react to sex. Just seems in Japan things are much more conservative from all the anime I watched.

Also my one pet peeve is this. If you draw a girl mixed with an animal DO NOT draw two sets of ears. No we're in nature is their an animal with 4 ears. Let alone a set of animal ears and a set of human ears. It is so beyond annoying when anime is lazy and forgets to remove the human ears from their anime models they cut and paste. If you make a cat girl fine then make her with cat ears she or he doesn't need a set of human ears as well. If is so odd looking and not needed and distracts from the character. Being this is an older anime I hope they learned their less by now. But just know the cat girls all have a set of cat ears and human ears it's annoying.

Well Humans have a good time watching this show it is worth watching once at least. It will make you laugh and really that's the main purpose of these shows.

Well at least the waifus are hot
WeAreLive17 August 2023
Kio Kakazu's life takes a space-aimed turn when Eris, a captain of an alien race, comes to Earth on a mission to establish connections between humans and her people, the Catians. Together with Kio's childhood friend Manami, teleport-capable Aoi and a team of cute capable robots, they face off against fanatical alien worshipers and a mysterious government agency, as well as the Catians' biggest enemy.

If you are into to furries specifically cat girls I guess this anime might be for you.

For what it's worth I thought the story was decent however it relied to much on fan service. The intro was great as well and the dub was excellent.

Curl up with Cat Planet Cuties, the Show that will have you Eating out of its Paw
totalovrdose9 January 2015
A series that includes a sexy cat woman and her municipals, a clueless nerd, a ruthless assassin with a pure heart, a former secret agent, a barmy uncle with military experience, deranged cultists and villainous dog people, would in most instances never work, and despite the original episode been rather difficult to fathom, the show, outrageously enough, becomes an entertainingly enjoyable ride soon after.

When it comes to Japanese Anime, it seems many people think of Pokemon, or Ghost in the Shell, and though there are animations directed towards young and adult audiences alike, there is another variety specifically targeting fan boys and adolescents with rampaging hormones. Similar to Date A Live, Heaven's Lost Property, Sekirei and Akiba's Trip Undead and Undressed, among many others, Cat Planet Cuties is not a show destined to be loved by all.

But for those who don't mind raunchy humor, occasional nudity, flirtatious references, sexually themed conversations and women bickering over their unanimous feelings for a certain someone, then this program will undoubtedly enthuse. Although none of the episodes are capable of going a full 21 minutes without articulating a reference to women's chests, unlike other programs, this occasionally seems more tasteful than vulgar. Although women are more often than not stereotyped as gorgeous babes with massive chests, the show does note on more than one occasion how one's inner beauty is most important.

Cat Planet Cuties follows Kio, a genuine nerd with a good heart and an even better mind, however when it comes to the ladies, he is ridiculously clueless. Already, this premise sounds familiar to other Anime in the genre, but wait! All of a sudden, Eris, who is the female embodiment of every Manga loving, cos-playing geek's fantasy, pounces into his life, and decides that for the duration of her stay, his place of residence will be her home away from home. Originally from the planet Catia, Eris has cute little ears, a long slender tail, and curves in all the right places - and she's just invited many of her friends over to play. With a combination of high ranking cat women and cute kitten assist-droids, Kio is sure to have his hands full.

On a minor level, Cat Planet Cuties could be representative of female empowerment, with a cast of strong women who are as smart as they are adept at self-defense. Comparative again to other Anime, rather than the lead male chasing after the girls, it is the other way round, which leads to a series of often humorous confrontations as alien and human alike bicker over their desires for romance.

When it comes to Anime on TV, graphics always vary. In the case of Cat Planet Cuties, the resolution is certainly near the top of the spectrum, with a brilliant use of color, and beautiful animation sequences. The soundtrack especially adds to the invigorating flavor, the opening and outro themes efficaciously illustrating the romantic ideas continuously been played upon.

With a combination of super sexy women, entertaining action scenarios, sci-fi spoofs, and hilarious sequences, I only wish there were more episodes of Cat Planet Cuties, which unfortunately only ever saw one season. This aside, tonight, why not curl up with kitty and watch intergalactic space divas with pussycat ears and tails fight for peace and equilibrium on Earth!

There was the movie Jack and Jill then there is this show
carlmansana12 June 2014
Horrible, people who have watched this show need to get a museum dedicated to teaching future generations about this shows horrors. It is horrible, the plot makes no sense, starts off with cat girls from space, then they get attacked by terrorists even though no one knows of there existence, then they fight a religion based on them which is run by a rich girl with a battleship, then dogs from space team up with the US military and try to kill them, the UN invades Russia with US tanks (only tanks no men or aircraft), the main character can make matter, and magic is real. No explanation, they even spend 15 minutes introducing a character in a mech suit fighting terrorists and never mention her again. This show is should replace water-boarding as an interrogation technique.

It's what you'd expect
mitsubishizero12 October 2020
It's a shame this didn't have more seasons because this was a fun show to watch. It would've been nice to see more Eris and shipmates antics as well as hopefully see lip turn back into a human again after the last episode. This was an interesting show to watch.

It goes without saying but if you like cat girls and harems than you'll like this for sure. Hop on in and see for yourself.

viewer may experience violent fits of rage
supermonkeyrobot9 June 2014
Warning: Spoilers
The main character I wanted to kill the entire time, the characters lack any form of depth, lazy animation, a plot about as well written as crime/thriller porn and is the definition stupidity. The main character is a wimp and crappy individual, the romance subplot is composed of a girl who cannot seem to talk about her feelings with the main character (her childhood friend) who is clueless. They never explain anything or follow up on any subplots,and pull a scrubs freeze sequence ranting about copyright laws. They make humanity out to be the bad guys because they have no issue with killing, even though no one in the show is killed and cannot make a serious character. The jokes are about as funny as Adam Sanders current career. The finale is the main character learning about courage and realizing he can do anything if he believes hard enough resulting in the creation of rocket, no explanation, and the show wraps ups with all the female leads marrying the main character, need I saw more?

Comedy, action and Cat Girls!
Tweekums3 December 2011
Warning: Spoilers
When I started watching this I thought 'Asobi ni Ikuyo' AKA 'Bombshells from the Sky!' would be a subpar fan service heavy series where what plot there was would just be an excuse to show the many female characters in a variety of revealing ways... thankfully it was better than that. I suspect the creators had a tick list of things that might appeal to a male viewer; guns, action, comedy, sexy aliens, cute little robots and a fair amount of fan service although that decreased in later episodes along with the comedy as the action increased. The protagonist of the story is a boy from Okinawa called Kio who meets an alien called Eris at his grandfather's funeral. Eris isn't totally alien of course; like most 'sexy aliens' in science fiction she looks almost human; the only obvious difference is that she has cat ears and a tail... she is a Catian who has just arrived on earth! Early on she finds herself being hunted by one group who believe that the first contact with an alien race should be with something more impressive and another who want to treat her as a deity! Kio gets caught up in the middle along with his two female friends Manami and Aoi; who unbeknownst to him were heavily armed agents! Later on a greater threat to Eris and her people emerges; the Dogisians... who are of course dog people.

I enjoyed this series a lot more than I expected to; the characters were fun even if they were somewhat cliché. The fan service wasn't over done and there was always steam or 'lens flare' obstructing anything too naughty, at least in the version I saw. The early episodes contained plenty of laugh out loud moments and as the drama increased in later episodes I was keen to see how they would thwart the dastardly Dogisian plans. The actions scenes were well handled and sometimes had a nice comic twist... Catian weapons don't kill; they just destroy anything non-living... such as clothing! If you enjoyed series such as 'Strike Witches', 'Sekirei' and 'This Ugly Yet Beautiful World' it is likely you will like this one too.

These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.

Atrocious harem series
Irishchatter3 July 2019
I think the whole thing was just rubbish. I thought the English Dub voice actor for the main character Kio was definitely not a perfect fit. Whereas the girls voice actors were fair enough and that was the kind of part I just couldn't understand. Honestly to whoever choose the English voice actors, should've has his ears or eyes cleaned!!

Yeah I know well I could switch to sub instead but the animation and the story just didn't do me justice to watch more of the anime. Sorry to the fans who will dislike my review but this anime was a disappointment!!!
