Ryo is sent out by the people of a village to kill the monster which has been attacking the villagers. It is rumoured that this monster is a cat-woman named Bagi. As Ryo waits for the monster to come to its watering hole, he thinks back to how he first met Bagi as a kitten who learned how to write, and later re-enters his life on a quest to discover who and what she really is. But now she has gone wild, and as the time of her arrival approaches, he strengthens his resolve to kill her. Note: The 7th special animated programme for a 24-hour broadcast program is set up in the present. Moreover, a special technique is used to improve the story's reality; the story synchronizes with actual time, as in the old A Duel at Midday or the recent Nick of Time. There is no guest appearance of Tezuka Osamu's popular characters as before. Here, Tezuka Osamu concentrates on depicting a crisis of the present. His zeal is apparent in the participation in nine roles, including original plan, story line, rendition, character design, animation director, original pictures, motion pictures and colour design. The present crisis involves the gene recombination crisis. This film was produced in 1984, when the Japanese government formally approved gene recombination experiments.
