A fond favourite of mine; back in the day when finding anime in the UK was something of a treasure hunt, it was possible on the British satellite TV receivers that existed at the time to receive certain European channels, and I stumbled across a number of anime that I would otherwise never have encountered, with the slight drawback that they were all in German. To this day, the German version of the "Sailor Moon" theme is the one that springs to my mind first. Here is the German opening and its rather literal title:

Looks awkwardly lifeless

Oh... whoa.  Ok... can "uncanny valley" apply to completely animated characters?

Those are.. somehow really disturbing looking characters.  Like genuinely terrifying to look at. 

I would honestly suspect the whole thing was actually AI-generated, except for the fact that they all have normal-looking hands.. and AI usually draws much better faces than those.

Edit: Actually.. maybe I need to rethink that...  How do knuckles work again?

More importantly, I have no idea what the show is about and the modern trailers don't help at all in that regard.  The trailer looks like a show about a coffee house with some creep filming it on a hidden camera...

All you need to know about Catseye is it's about three sister's who double as coffee shop owners by day and crime solving cat burglars by night Charlie's Angels style.

 

That's all your really need to know. That and gratuitous 80s spandex workout montages.😆

Ran across this video recently (even though posted 17 years ago), first time I had ever seen it.

Cat's Eye was always one of the shows watched in the various Anime clubs in the 80s, the music was quite popular.

I need to watch the old series!

I was super excited to try out City Hunter, but it was ruined for me by the main character being a total perv idiot. Maybe Cat's Eye is what I need.

Basically, the worlds dumbest detective tries to catch three suspiciously familiar to him art thieves and fails every time. Sometimes with roller skates!
