- Storyline
- The three Kisugi sisters, Rui, Hitomi, and Ai, run the Cat's Eye Café. They are the daughters of Michael Heinz, a painter who mysteriously disappeared in the 1970s. In order to find out what happened to him, they steal each item of their father's collection from their new various owners. They send out cards labeled "Cat's Eye" to the police warning them every time they plan a theft, but still manage to escape. Hapless Inspector Toshio Utsumi, in charge of the Cat's Eye case, happens to be Hitomi's boyfriend - which proves very helpful for the girls logistically, but creates obvious problems for Hitomi's conscience.
