The official website for the Neko Atsume no Ie (Neko Atsume’s Home) film based on Hit-Point’s smartphone app Neko Atsume: Kitty Collector revealed on Thursday that the movie will open in Japan on April 8, 2017.
The film follows Sakumoto, a novelist who won a new writer award when he was younger and became a best-selling author.
One day when he was at his wit’s end, he looks out into the garden, where a cat shows up.
Although Sakumoto tries talking to the cat, it goes away, and Sakumoto is downbeat again.
