it has cat girls










what more do you want me to tell you

A short and cute visual novel about ninja catgirls. It’s mostly kinetic, and there’s only two times where you get to chose one of the options. That won’t change the incoming of the story, it only unlocks two CGs related to the two girls.

Speaking of them, Tama and Yura are very cute! The art style fits the story perfectly and the VA is great. I liked that only their ears “twitch”, for some reason I found that charming, lol. Their elder sister, Nachi, is also a nice character and I found myself wanting to know more about her. I just wished that the other demi-humans had sprites as well.

I played the censored version here on Steam, but there’s a patch that gives you extra R18 scenes. It’s on the website Denpasoft, and you have to pay for it.

8/10. I recommend this visual novel if you want to read something heartwarming and not too complex. Hopefully there will be a sequel someday.

Just finished my first playthrough of the game; as you can perhaps tell, it's not a particularly long game, though that is to be expected from its price. I also bought the H-Patch from the Denpasoft website and yes, I did play through all the H-scenes on my route. Now, onto the review. No spoilers, I promise.

This game is nothing special, Visual Novel wise, but sometimes that's exactly what you're looking for. It certainly was what I was looking for, coming into this. People have been comparing this to NekoPara and personally, while I liked NekoPara better, Neko Nin is still pretty good. It's got a very light and fluffy storyline, filled with the heartwarming, cute and funny tropes you tend to expect from this kind of thing. The H-scenes came often and sometimes out of the blue, but hey, you're not playing this for plot, are you? For a VN, this is pretty quality art, and I especially loved that the catgirls' ears twitch randomly when you talk to them. This is a Visual Novel as opposed to a Kinetic Novel, so there are choices to make, but I get the feeling that the choices just unlock different H-scenes.


As I said above, you should not be playing this for plot. You're playing this for something light and cute, with stupidly adorable scenes, a few tongue-in-cheek jokes, and the warmth of two somewhat ditzy catgirl ninjas. The main character is almost stupidly stereotypical, and what passes for story is basically just a set-up to introduce two potential future heroines (if the game ever gets a sequel) and an excuse to make you feel warm and fuzzy. This isn't bad, mind you, but there are times where the game went a little over-the-top. It's not just that plot wasn't really coherent; it's also that all the pieces of a super typical romcom anime were tossed together and stirred, but not quite completely.

Still, I'd recommend this game to anyone who wants to pass a little time in good, happy, but not quite wholesome fun. It's definitely worth playing for its price, and it definitely helped feed my neverending need for Visual Novels. Just don't go in expecting some soul-gripping, heart-moving, teary-eyed epic, and you'll be set.

Pros:
-Great art
-Cute and fluffy storyline
-H-Scenes galore
-Nekos
-Nins
-Can be played with one hand

Cons:
-Super stereotypical MC
-Super stereotypical plot set up
-No seriousness at all
-Can't H-scene all the girls, please gib sequel
-Tissues not included

nekos and ninjas, im sorry my penis can only get so erect please refrain.

Note: I did not buy the 18+ patch. I just played the vanilla Steam version.

This was pretty good but if you're talking about cute catgirl VNs, it has to be compared to Nekopara. For the same price, Nekopara is longer and has better art and animation so if you haven't read that yet, I have to recommend it over Neko-nin.

If you've already read all of the Nekopara volumes, though, and you need more catgirls in your life (don't we all) then, yeah, I can certainly recommend Neko-nin. It's about a 4 hour read with two options in the middle that offer some changes in dialog for the following scene but don't change anything major so it's basically a kinetic novel. The story is very basic but the girls are cute and that's all that really matters.

You play as Houjou Haruki, who is an ordinary student with no special abilities nor skills that does not appear to be standing out particularly in between of his classmates.
Until one day, he comes upon two human-like girls with… a pair triangle cat ears and fluffy tail?

They present themselves as Demi-Humans, Ninjas on duty to serve and protect their Master according to an ancient pact run between their ancestors; and the Master in question is in fact none else but you.

Taken by surprise, you are convinced it is indeed a mistake.
While still trying to be more empathetic towards the two, you end up pushing them out of the house either way, as you can’t provide them a living place at your own costs, given you are not employed at any part-time job as of now.
While living together with your father while being a student, there’s no way he’d accept you taking in two strange girls with cat ears on their head no matter how cute they are.

However, the two won’t give up as they are determined to serve their Master under any conditions they are given! Therefore they start following you no matter where you go…

The two Ninja catgirls appearing in front of you are visibly attracting attention while being outdoors, both because of their Ninja attires and, well, the stated cat ears they appear to be having.

They do use ninjutsu technique to change their outfits and appearances in order to blend in with others, this way, they are less suspicious while interacting with you. Or so do they think while still keeping their unusual Ninja attires on.

While presenting themselves as Yura and Tama, two sisters on important mission, the first things you happen to notice about them is their greed for food and how they can visibly improve their mood by trying out different dishes and snacks you end up providing them with time.

Yura is the oldest and slightly more composed than the latter sister, however both are very noisy and lively.

Both end up living at the park and sleeping inside a huge pig-shaped slide made for children, while keeping determined to get closer to their “Master”.

While this is a choice-based Visual Novel, the actual choices you get to take are very few and do not really influence the ending, therefore the playthrough is characterized by its linear plot.
While picking different choices you get to unlock some CGs and scenes that do not influence the story, still if interested in having some 18+ content it is recommended to complete the whole game by testing out the present choices.

The art is very good and while the main character is the typical “MC with no face” in order to create an immersive context, the other characters displayed in game are really cute and portrayed as the typical adorable 2D girls longing for headpats. As a bonus, the catgirls’ sprites do have twitching ears, a detail that is really heartwarming given the fluffy atmosphere of this game.

The dialogues are voiced and there is also the feature of sound effects such as rumbling stomachs to display hunger, et cetera.

The character sprites do have very expressive faces which do tend to be funny, especially during the typical cat-like fights the sisters often engage into.

At times, a switch of point of view will occur to see the story from the heroines’ perspectives, as much as, to realize their true feelings and speculations.

Most of the gameplay is presented as a cute slice of life story, with few light fight scenes. However, the regular part of the story tends to be very cheerful and boisterous, given the personality of the two catgirl newcomers.

While there is a 18+ DLC available for purchase, I played the game without its usage.

A tiny flaw during the experienced gameplay I happened to come upon was the fact that some of the read text was not skippable, et viceversa – while taking another choice during the 2nd playthrough, it skips through new little content offered by the story.

While enjoying casual reads I tend to be wary about the Visual Novels presenting more cute side to them compared to others, given some previous experiences that happened to be quite dull and uneventful.
However, this was not the case fortunately! While I’d suggest to purchase it while on sale counting the short duration of this title, the read was very nice and pleasant and I recommend it if you’re looking for a heartwarming Visual Novel.
Take in count still, that you won’t get any real routes with the two, as the plot – as stated above – is linear.

Catgirls are love, catgirls are life. For those who are fans of Nekopara, you'll probably feel right at home with this VN. As long as you don't go into this game expecting it to be on par with Nekopara in both an erotic and non-erotic sense, you'll have a decent enough time.

Very cute catgirl visual novel to play while you wait for Nekopara Vol. 3. However it one ups Nekopara by having ninjas and the 18+ patch cost $5 as opposed to $10. Plus the plot is interesting.
Found it funny that the space key hides the menu and Esc minimizes the game. Kinda convenient that last one if you bought the 18+ Patch.

I got this as a birthday gift and played through it while I was stoned.

Best birthday ever.
