==Strategy/Usage==
Similarly to Cats in the Cradle, Shinji Cat is used as a short-range tank to deal quick and high wave damage.
Despite having lower health, speed and slightly lower DPS than Cats in the Cradle, Shinji Cat has a lower cost, faster attack rate and Wave Attacks in all forms rather than just in True Form, making him slightly better in some situations, especially early on or against Metal enemies. However, as KB effects can knock metals away from your short-ranged critical hitters, it isn't of any use for them once you start acquiring reliable counters. 
Shinji Cat excels in stages where he can get a clean hit off due to it featuring enemies with LDs or low attack frequencies. Enemies such as Dolphina, and Dark Emperor Nyandam are good examples of this. Enemies with Omni Strike are also vulnerable, as they tend to move closer than they should be, hence causing them to take damage from the wave attack.
Despite his ability, he is not recommended for most Black enemies, as knockback is rarely of any use against them and his short range means that he will die easily, although his waves are still effective against them and will most likely knock them back regardless. Most Black enemies have high knockback counts either way, so this ability isn't that useful, although it could be used against certain exceptions like Le'noir.
His knockback is incredibly useful for metal enemies with low range like Metal Cyclone and higher range ones like Sir Metal Seal.
