Nekopara



"A heartful comedy opens for business!"

Nekopara (ネコぱら) is a Japanese adult Visual Novel series developed by Neko Works and published by Sekai Project. The series is set in a world where humans live alongside catgirls, known as "Nekos", and are able to keep them as pets.

Kashou Minaduki is an aspiring chef who moves away from home to open his own confection shop. While he is unpacking in his new shop, he discovers that two of his family's Nekos, Chocola and Vanilla, came along with him by hiding in cardboard boxes. After the two Nekos convince Kashou to let them stay and live with him, the three of them work together to run his shop, "La Soleil". Throughout the story, Kashou is frequently visited by his younger sister Shigure, as well as the other Nekos owned by his family.

An anime OVA adaptation, Nekopara, was released in December 2017.
