Kemono Friends, whose Japanese title means Beast Friends, is a Japanese video game series and media franchise created by the Kemono Friends Project. The project was launched around 2014 by Hitoshi Kajii of Kadokawa, and the manga artist Mine Yoshizaki was appointed concept designer for the characters and the worldview. The first work was a mobile game developed by Nexon that ran from March 2015 to December 2016. A manga by Furai was serialized in Kadokawa's Monthly Shonen Ace from May 2015 to March 2017, and a second game from Bushiroad followed in January 2018. An anime television series produced by Yaoyorozu aired from January to March 2017, and a second season by Tomason aired from January to April 2019. Because the mobile game came first, the franchise is placed here with video-game-originated franchises, even though many people know it best through the 2017 anime.
