nihongo|"Spring and Chaos"|イーハトーブ幻想 Kenjiの春|Īhatōbu Gensō Kenji no Haru|lit, "Ihatov Fantasy: Kenji's Spring" is an anime OVA inspired by the life of poet Kenji Miyazawa, released in Japan in 1996 to mark the 100th anniversary of Miyazawa's birth. It was directed by Shoji Kawamori. It was released in North America by Tokyopop. Miyazawa and the other characters in the program are depicted as cats, similar to the anime adaptation of Miyazawa's story "Night on the Galactic Railroad".

The North American title "Spring and Chaos" derives from the title of Miyazawa's poetry collection "Spring and Asura" ("Haru to Shura"), the title poem of which is recited in part in the program. The "Ihatov" in the Japanese title is a setting in a number of Miyazawa's works; it is the word Miyazawa created in Esperanto for his place of residence, Japan's Iwate Prefecture.
