Puss 'n Boots (長靴をはいた猫 Nagagutsu o Haita Neko?, literally The Cat Who Wore Boots) is a Japanese anime movie released in 1969 by Toei. It is an adaptation of the famous fairy tale by Charles Perrault. Hayao Miyazaki worked as a storyboard artist and key animator on the film. Miyazaki also wrote the manga adaptation, which was serialized in Chūnichi Shinbun Nichiyō Ban (Chunichi Newspaper Sunday Version).[1]
The main character, Pero the cat is the mascot of Toei Animation. Pero's name is shortnened from Perrault.
It was followed by two sequels, Three Musketeers in Boots (ながぐつ三銃士 Nagagutsu Sanjūshi?) (1972) and Puss 'n Boots Travels Around the World (長靴をはいた猫 80日間世界一周 Nagagutsu o Haita Neko: Hachijū Nichikan Sekai Isshū?) (1976).
Discotek has released an English language version on DVD along with the original Japanese with English subtitles and a music and effects track.
