Synopsis
The setting is a Japanese looking village named `Little Tokyo' where the Pizza Cats run a pizza fastfood business. Little Tokyo is populated by all kinds of animals. The official governor of the town is the Emperor, but since he has gone bananas a council takes care of the well-being of the village. One of the members of this council is called Seymour "Big" Cheese, who secretly wishes to take over control of the village. The pizza take away restaurant is merely a cover for their true job... Whenever evil is afoot, the Pizza Cats are launched towards the danger from the gun-lookalike clock tower that emerges from the top of their restaurant.

Production Notes
Kyattou Ninden Teyandee was adapted into the English-language series Samurai Pizza Cats by Saban Entertainment in 1991. This version features a completely original plot and runs for 52 episodes. The series is currently available to stream on Peacock; it was released on DVD and Blu-ray by Discotek Media on DVD on July 30, 2013 and on January 19, 2016 respectively. Discotek also licensed the original version of the series in 2013, releasing it separately on DVD on April 30, 2013. A video game based on Kyattou Ninden Teyandee was developed and published by Tecmo for the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1991. While the game was only officially released in Japan, a fan-made patch was created, including a complete English adaptation that replaces elements of the original series with ones corresponding with Samurai Pizza Cats.
