The official Twitter account for manga creator agency wwwaap's Shikaruneko (Angry Cat) character announced on January 5 that the character is inspiring a mini-anime. The anime will premiere this spring on TV Tokyo.

The anime will have 30-second mini-episodes.

The character is notable for scolding readers for moments of carelessness and making mistakes. The character has inspired LINE stamps, novelizations, cafe collaborations, and pop-up stores.

Moja Cookie draws a manga based on the character, and Kadokawa published the second volume, titled Itsumo Soba ni Shikaruneko, in February 2019.
