The original 6 episode Bannou Bunka Neko Musume OAV series was released on 2 DVDs in Japan on May 1, 1999. The 14 episode TV series was released on 3 DVDs on August 1, 1999, and the 12 episode Bannou Bunka Neko Musume Dash! OAV series was released on 3 DVDs, all released simultaneously on November 1, 1999. All 8 of these DVDs are now out of print in Japan.<\/p>\n<p>AD Vision released the original (and best) OAV series on a single domestic DVD recently and will be bringing the second OAV series to America eventually. At the present time, though, the Nuku-Nuku TV series is not licensed for American release, which may be for the best considering how awful the series was. If you&#8217;re desperate to acquire the Nuku-Nuku TV series on imported Japanese DVD, you&#8217;ll probably need to rely on a Japanese retailer like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mandarake.co.jp\/english\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\">Mandarake<\/a> or an English language Japanese auction proxy bidding service like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rinkya.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Rinkya<\/a> that specializes in out of print, used and vintage Japanese anime merchandise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Question: Is the Bannou Bunka Nekomusume (All Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku) TV series available on DVD in Japan, if so, where can I find it?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-643","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-ask-john"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/643","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=643"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/643\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=643"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=643"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.animenation.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=643"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
