Assassin Saved Kitten from an Assassin’s Hand

We’ve watched a lot of plots about people being saved from their supposed perpetrator because of a lot of cliché reasons… but have you witnessed a kitten being saved from assassination because of how adorable it actually is?

Well, before your imagination involves any further doubts, what’s stated is the plot of a Japanese mini-series called Neko Zamurai (English translation: Samurai Cat). The cat whose name is Tamanojo is blamed as a culprit capable of possessing a man’s soul, thus must be put to death… the problem is, the assigned assassin, Madarame Kyutaro also known as Madara the Devil (played by Kazuki Kitamura), cannot take his cuteness and instead of ending his task as easily as he can, his heart was captivated and has even brought his should-be-victim with him as he goes home.

Have you watched it yet? If not, what do you think will be the turning point of the story? Is the cat really the kind of culprit as it is accused to be? Will the assassin be able to keep the truth from the one who has given the task?

We’re all curious.
