Cacao (カカオ Kakao?) is a character currently exclusive to the Nekopara anime series. She was found as a stray by Chocola, and was eventually adopted by Kashou and Shigure as the newest member of the Minaduki catgirls. There is currently no news stating that she will appear in any other media.
Appearance[]
Cacao has mint-colored short hair that hangs freely, not held up by ribbons or bows like the rest of the girls, besides Coconut. Being the youngest of catgirls, she is also the shortest, going up to Chocola's middle.
Cacao is almost never seen without her signature hat, which is tan and brown with a small orange bow decoration on the bill, alongside room for her ears. She wears a white blouse, underneath a pair of overall shorts; decorated with orange bows, a pink heart-shaped pin, and an orange ribbon tied into a bow, acting as a belt.
Personality[]
From her debut in the anime, Cacao behaves very much like a newborn child; hardly acting or reacting with any emotion. Cacao rarely speaks, and when she does, it's typically short words or sentences. Despite these things, she seems to care fondly for the Minaduki family; with an especially close bond to Chocola.
Background[]
As of the anime now, almost nothing is known about Cacao's history. She was found and taken in by Chocola as a stray; the latter feeling sorry for the former's situation.
With time, Cacao would be adopted into the Minaduki household, and would grow close with the other members.
Trivia[]
- Cacao's name is derived from the Cacao seed, in which cacao powder and chocolate are made. This could possibly be a reference to the strong relationship Cacao has to Chocola.
- However, in the anime, Cacao was named off of Cacao Cake, in which the former consumed, and greatly enjoyed.
- Cacao does not appear anywhere in the Visual Novel editions of Nekopara as of now, hence the exclusivity mentioned at the top of this page.
- Cacao is one of three of the Minaduki catgirls who's hair color does not match the food item they are name after, being mint, instead of the orange-like color Cacao seeds have.
- The others being Azuki, having brown hair, while Adzuki beans being a red color, and Cinnamon having violet colored hair, rather than being brown, as cinnamon commonly is.
- Ironically enough, the name originally considered for her by Azuki: "Sugarcane", actually would've made this not the case; as sugarcanes are typically a green color.
- While Cacao's age is not yet confirmed, she is both shorter and lighter than Chocola and Vanilla were in Nekopara Extra; in which they were three months old.
- This should be taken with a grain of salt though, as Cacao's exact breed is not fully known either, with it being confirmed in Azuki's and Coconut's cases that a catgirl's breed can affect these things.
- However, given Cacao's childish personality and need to be taught (not unlike how Chocola and Vanilla needed to be in Nekopara Extra), it can be well assumed that she is, at most, in the range of about 3 months.
