Samurai Pizza Cats is an American animated television adaptation of the anime series Kyatto Ninden Teyandee (Cat Ninja Legend Teyandee), produced by Tatsunoko Productions and Sotsu Agency.The series originally aired in Japan on TV Tokyo from February 1, 1990 to February 12, 1991 for a total of 54 episodes.Saban Entertainment picked up the North American rights to the series in 1991 and produced a 52-episode English adaption.The English version of the series first aired in 1993 on YTV in Canada and in 1996 in the United States on first-run syndication. When Saban licensed the English version, proper translations of and information about the original Japanese episodes were either of poor quality or non-existent.It was decided to write completely original dialogue for the English dub, playing the show as a wacky, Animaniacs-esque comedy in contrast to the less farcical original.The English-language version became a cult hit among anime fans due to its rapid-fire pop-culture references and farcical nature. Saban's distribution rights to the series expired in 2002.Discotek Media currently holds the North American home video license to the series in North America, while Madman Entertainment holds the license for Australia and New Zealand. Crunchyroll began streaming the series on December 27, 2015.
