"Cat's Eye" is a song by Japanese pop singer-songwriter Anri. It served as the opening for the anime series of the same name. A new version of the song titled "Cat's Eye (New Take)" was included on Anri's studio album Timely!!, released on December 5, 1983. Since then, it has become the theme song for the entire franchise, being included in other adaptations such as the 1997 Cat's Eye film, Lupin the 3rd vs. Cat's Eye and was also used as a leitmotif for the titular trio in City Hunter: Angel Dust.
Cat's Eye was also notably one of the songs that were participated to compete in the 34th edition of the NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen, which became the first theme song from an animated television series to perform at the event.
