Real and fierce combat? Check!
Close range headshots? Check!
Fluffly animals fighting as SpecOps agains camel terrorists? eh…check!? :?
In a time when people have become used to see people die in movies, director Kazuya Sasahara wants to offer some variety and uses cute animals as the main characters in his CG anime adaptation of Motofumi Kobayashi’s manga series Cat Shit One. The manga was published as Apocalypse Meow in the states by ADV Manga in 2004. Studio Anima is currently looking for investors to be able to produce all 12 planned episodes of the series.

The depiction of Americans as rabbits is actually a pun on the Japanese word for rabbit. The Japanese word for rabbit is "うさぎ", which can be romanized as "usagi", or USA  GI.

The British characters were depicted as rats to honor the Desert Rats, the nickname of the World War II British 7th Armoured Division. Similarly, the Germans were depicted as Foxes to honor Field Marshal Erwin Rommel, nicknamed the Desert Fox. :D

Double tapping, stealth knifing, strafe shooting, eye sniping, corner picking, silenced-pistol room clearing (yeah, I was making 'em up after the first one). :P
I mean, look!

I think the Japanese voices sound more badass but I guess the English dub is okay since the rabbits are supposed to be American anyway.
