"What's Michael?" is a collection of 3-4 minute shorts about cats. The concept sounds quite cute, I enjoy older animation (when it's done well), and I like cats, so I thought it might be a decent watch. But nahhh. The art and animation is mostly fine, so no complaints there. The problem is that it's not funny. Almost every short in "What's Michael?" is either unfunny or uncomfortable, sometimes both. Didn't really wanna see cats being slapped / punched, didn't really wanna see an adult cat be inappropriate towards a kitten. Just felt gross. I'm not sure who the target demographic for this is. If you likecats, you don't want to see them hurt... If you hate cats, you don't want to watch an hour-long OVA about cats... Baffling.

Among the many bad shorts, there's a couple that were fine, but that being said I wouldn't recommend "What's Michael?" to anyone. It's not worth suffering through all the bad shorts for the one or two that you might find funny. There's many, many better uses of your time.
