Evil Cat (Rare Cat)

This article is about the Cat Unit. For the enemy unit, see Gentleman Bros. (Enemy).

Evil Cat is a Rare Cat that can be unlocked by chance when beating any stage in Ritual Happiness. This unit is a variant of Zombie Cat that freezes Red enemies instead of being strong against them. True Form decreases its cost, gains Barrier Breaker and increases its chance to stop Red enemies.

Cat Unit # 80
Rare Cat

Cat

Evolves into Gentleman Cat at level 10.

Evolves into Gentleman Bros. when obtained from the Evil Cat Awakes! Stages (may be dropped on the first stage but guaranteed on the second stage) and is level 20 or above.

Pros:

• 20% chance to stop movement of Red enemies (40% in True Form).
• Moderate health.
• Decent attack power.
• True Form has a low cost.
• True Form has a 30% chance to break Barriers.

Cons:

• Single-target.
• Low range.
• Slow movement speed.
• Somewhat expensive, unless in True Form.
• Easily outclassed by iCat when it comes to freezing Red enemies.

Strategies/Usage

• Its first two forms are quite bad compared to other anti-Red, but its True Form makes it significantly better in terms of stacking them to permafreeze Red enemies. In its True Form, it is quite useful against enemies such as Bore. It proves its worth against Red enemies that it can outrange or have a slow attack rate (like Nyandam) in 4-star stages.
• Gentleman Bros. can be used against short-ranged, or long ranged Starred Aliens with Barriers due to its Barrier Breaker ability.

Stats

*First stats are 1st form's initial, second and third stats include 300% Empire of Cats Treasures; recharge time may vary.

*Time between attacks is the time of the attack from the attack's execution until the next attack animation starts (includes backswing).

For units with multi-hit attacks, attack animation is the part of the animation leading up to the first hit.

*See this section to calculate Evil Cat's stats.

Appearance

• Normal Form: Wears a red demonic oni mask of the variety parents and other caregivers wear during Setsubun, a Japanese festival where small children chase the "demon" down by pelting it with soybeans. This cat is also clad in straw and dual-wields knives. It attacks by slicing the enemy.
• Evolved Form: Is a bit taller and has lost the mask in favour of a suspicious yellow trench coat of the type synonymous with flashers. Attacks by exposing himself to the enemy. Surprisingly (and thankfully) there is nothing much to show.
• True Form: Looks very similar to the evolved form whilst moving, but to attack, opens his trenchcoat to expose... a stack of two smaller cats atop one another.

Trivia

• The unusual Japanese name for Evil Cat references the title of Natsume Sōseki's famous novel I Am a Cat. The personal pronoun employed in the title is deemed pompous and almost exclusively used in 'cat speech' in the modern era.
• This is one of the few cats that becomes cheaper when its True Form is unlocked.
• the first form's attack animation is a reskin of zombie cat.
