›Story

Toro, the little white cat who wants to be human, is off on a relaxing vacation to an onsen - a Japanese-style hot spring. Bringing all his friends with him, he takes it as a chance to learn more Japanese in the hopes of becoming human. This time around, rather than teaching him words in the way players did in Doko Demo Issyo, they use the computer's keyboard to type things to them. Aside from its typing tutor mode, players can also take part in various minigames including karaoke, vocabulary quizzes, snowman building, and more.
