In a world where people often adopt cat girls as pets, Kashou Minaduki tried his best to get away from his at first, along with the rest of his family. Fed up with their demands, he decides to open his own bakery. However, Chocola and Vanilla, his sister's "pets" of sorts, sneak away in his luggage and beg to stay with him, thwarting any plans he had for a peaceful life.As such, the challenge of opening a successful business with two clumsy, affectionate cat girls constantly running around begins.The series' release list is as follows: NEKOPARA Vol. 1: Soleil Kaiten Shimashita ("[La] Soleil Has Opened") (2014) NEKOPARA Vol. 0: Minaduki Neko-tachi no Nichijou ("The Minaduki Cats' Daily Routine") note Fandisc for NEKOPARA Vol. 1 (2015) NEKOPARA Vol. 2: Shimai Neko no Sucre ("The Sister Cats' Sugar") (2016) NEKOPALIVE note A virtual reality concert, though it is possible to view on your PC by opening the .exe manually (2016) NEKOPARA Vol. 3: Neko-tachi no Aromatise ("The Cats' Flavors" (?)note A tough title, as "aromatise" is actually a verb in French, meaning "to make fragrant", but seems to be treated as a noun) (2017) NEKOPARA Extra: Koneko no Hi no Yakusoku ("The Kittens' Day Promise") note Prequel taking place six months before Vol. 1 (2018) NEKOPARA Vol. 4: Neko to Patissier no Noel ("The Cats' and Patissier's Noel") (2020) NEKOPARA -catboys paradise- (2021) NEKOPARA After: La Vraie Famille ("The True Family") (TBA)Created by Chinese-born artist Sayori (currently living in Japan) under the name NEKO WORKs, NEKOPARA is an eroge visual novel series based on a series of doujinshi also created by NEKO WORKs. Censored versions of Vols. 1, 2, and 3 are available to purchase on Steam. Vol. 0 and Extra are available only on Steam in "all-ages" form, and NEKOPALIVE is free-to-play through Steam.A Kickstarter for an animated OVA adaptation was announced in December 27th, 2016 and went live two days later. After launch, the kickstarter reached it's $100,000 goal within an hour, and finished a little shy of $1,000,000. A second campaign for those with PayPal and Stripe was launched a few days later, taking the total past that final stretch goal. The OVA was released ahead of schedule on December 21, 2017 due to an accidental early leak to some Kickstarter backers.A music video that was uploaded on 13 Febuary 2018 revealed that KOTOKO has been roped in to making music for future content. A spin-off TV series was teased in mid-2019, with the first episode premiering on July 6 at Anime Expo. The complete series aired starting in January 2020. A mobile game titled Nekoparaitennote "Raiten" means the act of visiting a shop is being developed by Yostar.In 2019, NEKO WORKs announced NEKOPARA -catboys paradise-, a Spear Counterpart Otome Game featuring an all-new male cast as their April Fools' Day joke, however in 2021 it was announced that catboys paradise will be released as a full title in Summer 2021.

Nekopara (Visual Novel) / int_146e133b | comment |
Tamer and Chaster: Downplayed with the OVA and the TV anime adaptations; while they still have a good amount of Fanservice and sexual innuendos, they both place more focus on the interactions between the catgirls and put much less focus on their romantic and/or sexual relations with Kashou from the original visual novels. | |

Nekopara (Visual Novel) / int_1ad6e2da | comment |
Little Bit Beastly: The catgirls, who have cat ears, tail and eyes. However, they're biologically much closer to cats than humans, with similar growth and age rates and even estrus cycles. They also explicitly cannot reproduce with humans. Although, going by some of the things they eat without harm (like chocolate) they do have human digestive systems. | |

Real Place Background | |
Nekopara (Visual Novel) / int_20152e12 | comment |
Real-Place Background: Though the café itself is almost certainly fictional, the setting is Yokohama, Japan's 2nd most populous city. Places featured include: Yamashita Park which looks out into the port and Tokyo Bay, though the view featured here is that of the central business district, Minato Mirai 21 with its famous Yokohama Landmark Tower (second tallest buildingnote towers like Tokyo Skytree are excluded from the definition of "building" in Japan, and where two of the characters have dinner in Vol. 2) and Cosmo Clock 21 (tallest Ferris wheel in the world when it was built in 1989). An amusement park called Yokohama Hakkeijima Sea Paradise, though they changed the name to "Hyakkeijima". In Vol. 3, some of the characters go to "a[ musical] instrument store near [Yokohama] Station".note The English text reads, "Yokosaki Station", but based on comparing the Japanese text, and the fact that no "Yokosaki Station" can be found, this appears to be a mistranslation. The background is a drawing of the area of the Minami-Saiwai bridge over the Saiwai river from the intersection of Pal Nerd St. and 5th Avenue. The neighborhood beyond has at least five music stores, so it's not clear which one they might have been thinking of. | |

Playful Cat Smile: Zigzagged between the cast. Most, if not all the girls have demonstrated it at least once, but Chocola, Azuki and Coconut almost have it as a default expression. | |

Nekopara (Visual Novel) / int_2e6a41e0 | comment |
Gratuitous English: From a few characters. Vanilla is occasionally prone to this a little, with phrases like, "Let's go!" and "All green." At the end of Vol. 2, after Kashou gets his fourth catpanion, Shigure says, "Hey, brother! Let's say, Neko Paradise!" And after the last one joins the harem in Vol. 3, Shigure tearfully declares, "I wanna be Neko!" | |

Humanlike Animal Aging | |
Nekopara (Visual Novel) / int_348ec1e1 | comment |
Humanlike Animal Aging: Inverted as a case of Animallike Human Aging, all catgirls grow and age like their real life counterpart, the most absurd example goes to Coconut, being a Maine Coon, she has the body of an adult woman despite being 1 year old. Dialogue during the series seems to imply that once they reach maturity they have normal human lifespans, but this may be conjecture at best. | |

Gratuitous French | |
Nekopara (Visual Novel) / int_34f8042a | comment |
Gratuitous French: One word in the title of each of the main volumes (1 through 4). Sayori seems to have a thing for French, as seen also in the name of the patisserie (that also being a French word itself), and that the name of one of the Minaduki catgirls is a French word ("chocolat"), despite her not being Frenchnote though the spelling was changed early on, probably because a lot of people would mispronounce it otherwise. Most of the main volumes have alternate French subtitles: Des soeurs filles-chat tres gentilles for Vol. 2, Aromatiser des filles-chats for Vol. 3, and Noël avec les filles-chat et Patissier for Vol. 4. | |

SlidingScaleOfIdealismVsCynicism | |
Nekopara (Visual Novel) / int_3ac583f4 | comment |
Sliding Scale of Idealism vs. Cynicism: Very much on the "Idealism" end. In this world, no problem can't be resolved with a heart-to-heart talk with the people you love. Love will blossom naturally and will not create any negative feelings between any character. There is another sapient species besides humanity now, but it's no issue, because all humans love them. The only time anyone says anything remotely negative about Catgirls is when a guy in Vol. 3 dismisses Kashou having them work as waitress as a "gimmick", and even him apologizes after just one scene. | |

Nekopara (Visual Novel) / int_59907e4f | comment |
Police Are Useless: The Lawful Stupid police officer in Vol. 1 who completely ignores Chocola and Vanilla trying to explain that Kashou is sick, and only cares about having them detained for being outside without their bells. And then when he shows up, obviously sick and exhausted, rather than show any concern for his well-being, she only acknowledges the bells and walks away. The officer does mention that she's run into a lot of catgirls who try to pretend that they have a bell, which may explain why she ignores the two's explanation, but there's no excusing her just walking off after Kashou is clearly in a poor condition. | |

Excuse Plot | |
Nekopara (Visual Novel) / int_70d8269d | comment |
Excuse Plot: The series' setting of a world where Cat Girls can be adopted as pets isn't really fleshed out much beyond that, and is really just an excuse for cat girls to exist. When the anime adaptation aired, the series' creator even went to Twitter to ask people not to think too hard about the premise. Vol. 2 introduces a subplot which involves Chocola and Vanilla having to take a bell renewal exam in order to keep their bells. Something that none of the other Minaduki catgirls have to do. This mostly exists to remove Chocola and Vanilla from the story while placing the focus on Kashou's relationships with Coconut and Azuki. | |

And Now for Someone Completely Different: While Kashou is essentially the POV character in the series, there are certain parts where someone else takes over such as Chocola and Vanilla in Vol. 1 and Maple and Cinnamon in Vol. 3. There's also Vol. 0, which focusses on every character except Kashou, who doesn't even get a line. | |

Nekopara (Visual Novel) / int_8485d41a | comment |
Interspecies Romance: The central premise of Nekopara is Kashou starting romantic relationships with the catgirls he works with. It's not a shameful relationship in the setting, to the point where there's a common word for it ("koineko" in Japanesenote a three-way pun between "kaineko" ("pet cat"), "koneko" ("kitten"), and "koibito" ("lover"); "catpanion" in the English translation). | |

Sibling Yin-Yang | |
Nekopara (Visual Novel) / int_8af7b342 | comment |
Sibling Yin-Yang: The series has 3 pairs: Chocola and Vanilla: Chocola is energetic, cheerful and innocent while Vanilla is calm, collected and has a sarcastic streak. Coconut and Azuki: Azuki is the eldest sister, excels at everything she does and is the shortest catgirl out of all Minaduki sisters. Coconut is the second-youngest, tallest and often makes a mess of things. Also, Azuki is Older Than She Looks while Coconut is Younger than She Looks. Maple and Cinnamon: Cinnamon is a Lovable Sex Maniac who turns a lot of things into sexual innuendos and gets lost in her fantasies. Maple is a no-nonsense catgirl with a calm head. They even happen to be breeds of cat whose ears curl in opposite directions. At one point, Maple is called the pride of the family while Cinnamon is called a disgrace to the family. | |

Saying Sound Effects Out Loud | |
Nekopara (Visual Novel) / int_9014df71 | comment |
Saying Sound Effects Out Loud: For whatever reason, this series loves to have its characters speak sound effects (and Unsound Effects, this being Japanese and all). Frequent examples being "gorogorogoro" (purring) and "nadenade" (petting). The latter is used both in sentences and as an Unsound Effect, as are some others. | |

Art Shift | |
Nekopara (Visual Novel) / int_912b24c4 | comment |
Art Shift: In Vol.4 the art style is shifted to softer colours. Also the girls change to individually coloured uniforms instead of the standard black and white one they previously used and the appearance of La Soleil is changed to more detailed and elaborate 3D-modeled backgrounds that were created for the OVA. The former is explained in-universe by the girls changing to winter uniforms. | |

Improbably Female Cast | |
Nekopara (Visual Novel) / int_929328d7 | comment |
Improbably Female Cast: The cast is largely made up of Cat Girls, and even though it's been confirmed by the creators that cat boys also exist, they've never been seen in the story itself. The first line of dialogue just happens to be from a man, and the protagonist is a man (though with a typical lack of voice acting and a face we rarely see).note There's also the fly that distracts one of the catgirls, with a hilariously obvious male voice for its buzzing. Other than that, it's not just the main characters; every other person who says anything—catgirl, adult human, or child—is female. Well, until Vol. 3, that is. In that one, a couple of small roles do end up being men. And Vol. 4 features Kashou's father prominently in a couple of major scenes. | |

Exposed to the Elements | |
Nekopara (Visual Novel) / int_9b53f32 | comment |
Exposed to the Elements: Vol. 4 has the catgirls switching to their winter uniforms. For the most part, they do cover their bodies more, except for two notable details: They expose generous cleavage, and no attempt is made to cover the conspicuous cat ears of the girls. Yet, they claim to be warm in those clothes. | |

Family Disunion | |
Nekopara (Visual Novel) / int_9c74b3aa | comment |
Family Disunion: For his mother birthday, Kashou decides to finally come back home and bake a cake for her. It's a happy occasion until his father arrives, at which point it becomes abundantly clear that father and son still haven't sorted out their issues. While it doesn't escalate into violence, the humiliation Kashou feels drives most of the plot of Vol. 4. | |

Nekopara (Visual Novel) / int_9cdef1ef | comment |
Maple and Cinnamon: Cinnamon is a Lovable Sex Maniac who turns a lot of things into sexual innuendos and gets lost in her fantasies. Maple is a no-nonsense catgirl with a calm head. They even happen to be breeds of cat whose ears curl in opposite directions. At one point, Maple is called the pride of the family while Cinnamon is called a disgrace to the family. | |

Sliding Scale of Plot Versus Characters | |
Nekopara (Visual Novel) / int_9fa2cfd1 | comment |
Sliding Scale of Plot Versus Characters: On the "Characters" end. The plot of the main volumes of the Visual Novels can be summed up as "the catgirls bond with Kashou and they receive Character Development from it", and not much is lost. All of them start and end with the cast working at La Soleil, and the only changes are in the relationship between them. | |

Furry Reminder: Despite their mostly humanoid appearance the catgirls will frequently do something very, well, catlike, such as Chocola and Vanilla tiring themselves out batting at a dangling thread. | |

Polyamory | |
Nekopara (Visual Novel) / int_a5de0ab9 | comment |
Polyamory: While this is never pointed out In-Universe, Kashou's harem is more of an example of this in practice, to the point where it can be "broken down" into three three-way relationships with Kashou at the center. Since each volume of the Visual Novels gives Character Focus to a pair of catgirls simultaneously, the relationship between the girls receives just as much attention and development as their romance with Kashou. It's made very clear that the Chocola x Vanilla and Maple x Cinnamon pairs love each other as much as they love Kashou, and the Azuki x Coconut pair is only slightly less affectionate. As in, they aren't show engaging in lesbian sex at any point, unlike the other two pairs. | |

Reactive Continuous Scream: A variation with gasps rather than screams happens in Volume 4. When Shigure asks Kashou to make a cake for their mother's birthday, Kashou and all the Catgirls gasp in surprise… except for Coconut, who asks what's the big deal. Chocola then admits she reacted like that purely because Kashou did, and Vanilla adds that she also reacted like that because Chocola did. | |

However, Extra states that Shigure used the catgirls to fill the void in her heart after Kashou left for France, implying that except for Chocola and Vanilla, the catgirls came to the house while Kashou was in France. | |

Translation Convention: In the scenes set in France in Vol.4 it's established that everyone, including the Japanese characters, are speaking French but the spoken dialogue is still in Japanese (and the subtitles in whichever of the three language options you chose). This gets a bit odd when Beignet has to take a moment to remember what Japanese Honorifics mean while casually speaking fluent Japanese. | |

Suspiciously Specific Denial: From Cinnamon at least a couple of times in Vol. 3, regarding her perverted thoughts and interests. Says she wants to look at—er, look up—something on Kashou's computer; but it's not anything weird or perverted. Later, when caught surreptitiously following him and Maple, she claims she didn't think they were doing anything lewd. | |
