I think the story is open to interpretation: A realistic one and a supernatural one. Maybe it's made this way to let the viewers see it as they like, so less be hurt by the tragedy. But either way, the main theme is the same: The temporary nature of life and everything in it, also the risk of being hurt that loving someone can bring to our lives, to the point that sometimes makes suicide a very reasonable choice. What do we want to do? Can we really enjoy this?

We all know the answer that a typical J-dorama gives us. And "Neko" isn't an exception. But what makes this one special is how lovely, how equal & balanced, how cute, the relationship of 'Mineko' and 'Koji' is! It's like you're on Titanic, the ship is drowning, and you sing the most heavenly song ever! What is it like? Watch 'Neko' to find out! Another question: Can humans really do this? 'Neko' thinks so! Japan thinks so! And I'm in complete agreement!
