The Everyday Tales of a Cat God is a comedic anime series that was produced by AIC PLUS+ and directed by Yoichi Fujita. It was released in Japan in 2011 and later dubbed into English by NIS America. The show follows the adventures of a cat goddess named Mayu, who is worshipped by a small community of people in a remote Japanese village.

Mayu is a mischievous and carefree goddess who often gets into trouble due to her selfish and lazy behavior. She spends most of her time sleeping, eating, and playing games with her human friends. Despite her lazy disposition, Mayu is also very powerful, capable of manipulating the elements and casting powerful spells.

The show's premise revolves around Mayu's interactions with the human community she protects. Her followers have erected a shrine in her honor, and they pray to her for good luck and protection from harm. Mayu, in turn, rewards them with blessings and miracles, although her methods can be a bit unorthodox.

Mayu's lazy attitude and playful personality often lead to comical situations. For example, in one episode, Mayu creates a magical umbrella that transports her to different parts of the village for no particular reason. In another episode, she helps a group of love-struck boys win the affections of their crushes, but only after they agree to do her bidding.

Mayu's relationship with her human followers is a central theme of the show. She is both revered and mocked by the villagers who worship her. Some regard her as a divine being, while others see her as a nuisance to be tolerated. Mayu, in turn, seems to have little regard for her duties as a goddess, often acting in her own self-interest rather than the good of her followers.

The show's supporting cast includes several other gods and goddesses, each with their own unique personalities and quirks. There is a young goddess named Sasana who is Mayu's rival, a dinosaur god named Yuzu who is obsessed with games, and a flower goddess named Kanae who is elegant and reserved.

The anime's animation style is colorful and whimsical. Characters are drawn in a cute and chibi-like style, with exaggerated expressions and silly antics. The show's soundtrack is upbeat and playful, mirroring the show's lighthearted tone.

Overall, The Everyday Tales of a Cat God is a fun and entertaining anime that is perfect for fans of comedy and slice-of-life shows. Its lovable cast of characters and silly antics make it a joy to watch from start to finish. While the show's plot may not be particularly deep or complex, its upbeat tone and lighthearted humor make it a perfect choice for those looking for a fun and relaxing escape.

The Everyday Tales of a Cat God is a series that ran for 1 seasons (12 episodes) between July 9, 2011 and on NIS America

Salutations, this is Sasana. If Lady Mayu becomes the new Guardian Cat, she may return to Takamagahara and will have to part with Lady Yuzu. I cannot imagine life at Antiques Unlimited without her, and I am certain Lady Yuzu feels the same.

Hello again, this is Yuzu. Another cat god named Amane came to visit Lady Mayu recently. I heard from her that Lord Tsukuyomi wants to have Lady Mayu become the moon's Guardian Cat. Does that mean Lady Mayu will no longer be able to stay with us?

This is Gonta's mother, Shizuha. I really love to gamble. As always, I challenged the biggest sucker - I mean, the biggest risk-taker, Mayu, to a game of dice. I won, of course. I took some video game, but that fool keeps trying to reclaim it. Why!?
