The Neko Works booth at the Comiket 95 event announced on Saturday that a TV anime adaptation of its Nekopara visual novel series is in progress.

Neko Works developed the first Nekopara game in December 2014 and has since released four more games in the series, including sequels and prequels. Sekai Project published the games in English on the Steam platform simultaneously with the Japanese release. The visual novel series has sold over 2 million copies.

Sekai Project launched a Kickstarter campaign for an original video animation based on Nekopara in December 2016 and met its initial goal of US$100,000 for a 20-minute episode within an hour. The company promptly announced that an extra 10 minutes will be added to the episode for every additional US$100,000 to a maximum duration of an hour for US$500,000. The campaign ended in February 2017 with over US$900,000, but was extended to reach the final stretch goal of US$1 million for a short anime adaptation of the Nekopara Extra prequel visual novel. Sekai Project formally concluded the campaign after it exceeded US$1.04 million in March 2017.

The one-hour original video animation debuted on the Steam platform last December and was screened at the Akihabara UDX theater earlier this year on January 1. The short anime adaptation of the prequel was released alongside the visual novel on July 27.

A manga adaptation by Tam-U was serialized in Dengeki G's Comic magazine between May 30 and November 30 this year. Kadokawa will publish the single volume on January 10, 2019.

Again, this really should be a hentai if you want to truly drive home the point of what Nekopara is actually about. I can only hope it'll at least be a lot more ecchi than the OVA was because that was very lackluster, but I won't get my hopes up too high

Exactly my thoughts. The VN is literally a hentai so I cannot believe that all its adaptions have been "vanilla" (haha, get the pun...) I wouldn't mind if they pulled a Princess Lover with this, where they made a one-cour anime but finished it with a two-episode hentai OVA lmao.

Damn right.
Its an instant 10 and people who dare say otherwise shouldnt even be allowed to exist on this timeline.
Also people who complain about the anime removing the porn: I didnt even knew the VN had 18+ content unless i was halfway trough the second one and even then i had Nekopara in a pedestal.
I truly cant give a damn about adult content i wanna see animated catgirls, hear "nya", "gojushin sama" and fluffy tails.

Check out my taste and my profile.

They should really up the fanservice for this one. From what I remember about the OVA it was weak in that department and the comedy/romance were too mild.

To be honest I don't think the anime will have hentai in it at least as long as it's airing on a slot where it doesn't allow that (unless we are talking about AT-X). And to be fair, I'm probably the only person that enjoys it for the comedy and SoL elements. Nothing against the hentai that was over there, then again I read this when I was kinda innocent at the time so... yeah.

No, you're not alone. I didn't even care about the h-scenes, really. It's a nice SoL without them.

The TV anime will probably be cool, there's finally a chance to make a proper VN adaptation with them not trying to cram tens of hours in 12 episodes.

I honestly hate when they do this. I don't hate hentai but when they have a non hentai adaptation,they're kinda lying to the anime onlys. Like I'm pretty sure a lot of people wouldn't watch this if they know it's actually a hentai. This is why I couldn't get into the Fate series.

Seriously? it sucks. This Visual is pure eroge game. Even if story in Nekopara is great still Kashou goal is to make love with every neko girl in this game.. Even fans waiting for adult scene with his sister.. Still anime without 18+ scene sucks

That's true, and besides the VN is a pure Slice of Life if we take the H-Scenes out of the equation. So they can do a proper adaptation without losing major plot points because the VN doesn't have a lot of those. It's pretty tame and it can be easily adapted into anime form.

I know my comment might get alot of hate but kind of hope this can/will get a dub, don't get me wrong I really love the Visual Novels but I'd really love to watch the series as well.

Also will admit I would really love to see what company would get the rights to it and who they'd get to voice who.

Either way I am so happy and pretty damn excited to see that this is happening.



All the Anime's on my list are all one's I own Personal physical copies of, or have seen in theaters that I plan on buying, series that I've watched on FUNimation or HIDIVE will not be on here unless/until I have already bought it.

This guy, this guy right here. There's so much more potential to it than catgirl sex and I'm happy they're finally tapping into it. I played the games for the wholesome slice of life elements and was honestly quite turned off by the H scenes. But this, this is exactly what I've been looking for.

I love that Nekopara is getting a TV anime, and find it fascinating they might be able to take an 18+ game, and adapt it into a more wholesome anime. I would be perfectly satisfied if they modeled the show after the Quinessential Quintuplets. Sprinkle fan service here and there, but make Kashou want to understand and get to know each Neko sister. Because he goes out of his way for them, they start to grow affection for him. You could even have the moral dilemma being is it okay for a human to marry a cat? And if so, the studio could really take it in any direction they wanted. I'm certainly excited for this.

Many 18+ visual novels end up with an ecchi or even a perfectly wholesome anime. And also, many stories have animals that act and look like humans. So I don't see where your worries come from.

I think it to be impossible for one to satisfy his cravings for cat girls, so I welcome this addition.
