A Deeper Dive into the “NEKOPARA Love Project”
This project is an ambitious undertaking to port the popular NEKOPARA series into four distinct smartphone games. Each volume has been meticulously refined by the original creator, Sayori, ensuring a fresh visual experience that stays true to the series’ iconic art style.

The story follows Kashou Minaduki, who, despite the success of his patisserie “La Soleil,” struggles to gain his father’s approval. A refreshing hot spring trip with the adorable catgirls—Chocola, Vanilla, Azuki, Coconut, Maple, and Cinnamon—leads Kashou to France with Shigure, seeking guidance from his master.
