Hello everyone!
We just received word that the physical goods will begin shipping out on December 26, 2017. Since there are a lot of physical goods backers, overseas shipments won't begin till the start of the new year. Please be sure to check your BackerKit account for more details and shipping notifications.
On top of that, we're pleased to announce that distribution of Steam digital keys for the NekoPara OVA will also begin on the 26th of December.
It's been quite the journey from the start of this campaign till now but hopefully everyone is still energized to receive their digital and physical goods. Judging from the fantastic images we saw in the last update, even our own staff is excited to see the final product.
As always stay tuned for more information as we get it. Till next time!

Hey everyone!
It's almost the end of October and that means Halloween is approaching. While we don't have any tricks (yet) we certainly have some treats for everyone in the form of new images of some of the goods in the NekoPara campaign!
First off, we have some more detailed designs of the cat girls of NekoPara. Definitely love the chibi designs as well!
Chocola and Vanilla
Kashou, Shigure, and Azuki
Maple, Cinnamon, Coconut
Of interest to some folks is the inclusion of the staff list for the NekoPara OVA. Some notable new information including such as KOTOKO singing the ending theme, "Mew Mew Cake".
Next up, we have the NekoPara T-shirt sample to show off.
I love the way the heart is designed with each of the cat girls' names written all over it. A subtle, but stylish look to show your love for NekoPara.
Lastly, we have the finished can badge designs.
These look great, especially in the heart shaped design they are in. Maple changing the game with her behind the back heart sign. Mm-hmm.
That's it for now. We'll have more interesting stuff to show off as we get closer and closer to the release date!
Goods and OVA Update!

Pleasant Monday to everyone!
Summer is finally over and things are starting to cool down but we still have some fantastic updates for everyone.
First off, some of you may have already seen Sayori-sensei talk about them online but the finished batch of Chocola and Vanilla plushies have just arrived and they look absolutely adorable!
While there have not been plans to sell these outside of what was earmarked from the Kickstarter campaign, we'll be sure to update everyone should information be available. The cuteness... it really is too much!
Next up, we have more updates from the OVA, this time we have some lovely artboards to show off to everyone. These really show off the different locations featured in the NekoPara series.
First up, let's have a look at La Soleil!
La Soleil (inside the shop)
We get a really good look inside the cafe and can see how roomy it is with lots of space for customers to walk around. To the left are placeholders for where the tables and chairs would go.
La Soleil (kitchen)
Here we see the inside of the kitchen where Kashou and the team make the wonderful pastries and cakes that make La Soleil a popular spot to stop in for tea and a bite to eat. The coloring and lighting makes for a bright and cheery place to work we'd imagine.
La Soleil (2F, Living Quarters)
Next up we have the layout of the upstairs area of La Soleil where Kashou, Chocola and Vanilla live. Plenty of room for guests to come over too.
La Soleil (2F, Living Quarters)
Here's another view of the living room.
La Soleil (2F, Chocola and Vanilla's Room)
Next up we have an artboard of Chocola and Vanilla's room. Shigure certainly has an eye for design. No doubt about that.
La Soleil (2F, Kashou's room)
Next up we have Kashou's room. It's... pretty simple but look at that view! Of a wall! And trees too, don't forget the trees!
La Soleil (1F, Bathroom)
Lastly, we have an artboard of the bathroom. A lot bigger and fancy than your average Japanese bathroom without a doubt.
This rounds out our update for this time around but we've got one last thing to mention. According to Sayori-sensei's Twitter account, recording work for the OVA has just completed!
We here are just as excited as you all are at what the finished product will look like. So stay tuned as we get more juicy bits information to everyone~
