'''Welcome to Japari Park''' is an original net animation set after the events of the original Kemono Friends [[Kemono Friends (2015 Mobile Game)|mobile game]] produced in collaboration with Nexon. The plot of the ONA mirrors that of the Nexon game, and serves as a retelling of the events. Crunchyroll picked up the series for streaming under the title "Welcome to the JAPARI PARK".

The anime has had sporadic release periods compared to the main Kemono Friends series. At the end of episode 11, it was announced that episode 12 would premiere on April 15, 2019, a few months after the premiere of [[Kemono Friends (Season 2)]]. After the release of episode 24 on October 14, 2019, the status of the anime was unknown until the Spring 2020 anime season. Episode 25 was suddenly released as the start of the second season on April 15, 2020.<ref>https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2020-04-14/crunchyroll-streams-welcome-to-the-japari-park-2nd-season-wacky-tv-nanana-3rd-season-anime/.158585</ref>

== Plot ==
During the reconstruction of [[Japari Park]], Park Guide [[Mirai]] and Friend [[Serval]] host a video record of their previous adventures for park guests. Mirai, [[Serval]], and [[Caracal]] travled through the various areas of Japari Park after Serval gets a mysterious pendant that helps Friends fight against the [[Celliens]] who have invaded Japari Park. The group also searched for a mysterious [[Cerval|Cellien who looks like Serval]].

The plot is largely based on the original story missions from the Nexon game. A [[Lucky]] Beast with the registration number 2021LB-1 features prominently in the intro and credits for the series. It projects the main episodes on the walls of the storage room it's sitting in. The state of said room changes as the series goes on, tying into the later abandonment of the park.

All episodes open with a disclaimer stating "This program was reconstructed based on the record of JAPARIPARK. It may differ from other records in terms of audio, video, chronology, etc. Please watch this program on your understanding." This indicates that the program is based on the original mobile game, not the other titles that came after it that viewers would be more familiar with.
