Samurai Pizza Cats - Samurai per una pizza

This show is funnier than Woody Allen's "What's Up, Tiger Lily?," which is very much in the same vein.

Like Allen's film, the SPCs are a Japanese production given a very funny English soundtrack, only this time the Japanese production was a spoof of anime to start with. The result: A very, very funny show, both visually and in the soundtrack, with no slow spots or inappropriate humor.

The English soundtrack was made up out of whole cloth, because there were no transcripts of the Japanese scripts to translate. The crew made a virtue out of necessity.

Beware the funny-looking blue stuff.

When this show first premiered in 1991, I immediately didn't watch it, dismissing it as nothing more than a lame "Ninja Turtles" rip-off. But then, on one rainy afternoon, there was nothing else on, and I began to watch it. This show is just SO funny! What other cartoons feature a cross-dressing villain, heroes whose secret identities are exactly the same as their hero personas, and a total babe with a missile launcher in her head that nukes whatever upsets her? I watched it religiously until 1997, when all my local carriers quit showing it. But, trust me, this show is one of the best forgotten gems of animation. And always remember, "although they may be pen and ink, we know they'll fight like...PIZZA CATS!!"

This is such a great idea for a Anime series! One of the best Anime cartoons ever has to be Samurai Pizza Cats. This is funny, yet it also has action. I recommend that all Anime/cartoon comedy lovers try to watch this somehow.

A creative, fun anime. This one involved the Pizza cats who were also samurais and fought evil characters when inter-rumping peace in Tokyo. See, the cats work on a Pizza restaurant!

This cartoon is really a hidden gem. It had the necessary humor to entertain children and adults. The situations were really comical with

the Japanesse touch. I really dug the sometimes black humor used because it fit perfectly with the characters.

I liked their comical adventures and the cartoon's ending always had a positive message.

Oh, this is pure nostalgia. I remember always sitting in front of t.v. every day at 4:00 p.m. waiting eagerly for the show.

This cartoon is tender but really humorous. I don't know where to find it but believe me, if it's released on DVD, it will be a HUGE success. This may be the best comical anime.

Also, the opening song is stuff for legend. Samurai Pizza Cats!!

Samurai Pizza Cats is one of my favourite cartoons of all time! There are so many people who just say its a rip-off of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles but this just isn't true. As a girl I never really watched TMNT, but Samurai Pizza Cats is suitable for boys and girls. Pizza Cats is way more funny, and light-hearted. I love the lame little puns and jokes and the character names, (Polly Esther, Big Al Dente)... its such a cute and enjoyable show! Its definitely one of the most unique kids cartoons around in my opinion. The characters are so awesome and I always wanted to be just like them as a kid!! Its one of those really memorable cartoons of my childhood, along with Jem, Smurfs, Wacky Racers etc.
