Kuro-chan is a Japanese anime series that originally aired in the late 1990s. It revolves around the adventures of Kuro, a cyborg cat who is on a mission to fight evil and protect the world. Kuro-chan first became popular for its unique mix of humor, action, and quirky characters. The show was first broadcast in the Philippines in the early 2000s on IBC 13, where it quickly gained a following among Filipino audiences, particularly kids, due to its fun and action-packed storyline. The anime, which was part of the broader wave of Japanese anime in the Philippines, became a staple in local afternoon TV viewing for its lighthearted and entertaining content.

​

As for the theme song, the Tagalog version of Cyborg Kuro-chan's opening theme, performed by Salbakuta, became an iconic track during the show’s run. Released in the early 2000s, the song has high energy, catchy lyrics, and a playful rhythm that captured the attention of Filipino viewers. The song, with lines like "Si Kuro ang cyborg cat na superhero," emphasized Kuro’s role as the heroic cat saving the day, while the catchy "ang galing n'ya" became an easy-to-remember chorus for fans. It’s an upbeat and engaging anthem that matched the anime’s fun tone, and it helped solidify the show's popularity in the Philippines. The song, still fondly remembered by fans, became a significant part of Kuro-chan's cultural impact.
