Acara Day Roundup

Today is the annual Acara Aquatic Festival, so it's time to celebrate Acaras!

Note, New Features hasn't updated yet for today, so there may be more coming! This is everything we could find so far.


Burlap

This seems to be based off of the Luxury Acara Plushie:


If you plan on creating a Burlap Acara, check out our Modeling page, as we'll need your help!

Over at Uni's Clothing shop, an outfit based on Granny Hopbobbin is available:



TNT has also completed the HTML5 conversion on some previous Acara pet day wearables as well, so they should now appear on your customisations again!


A new cologne is available at the Grooming shop:


And lastly, a Pet Day mystery capsule is available at the NC Mall:

Aww, but the part of that plushie I enjoy are the colors of the horns and torso.

Looks like the Plushie got Burlap cousin.

The NC cap has a Vira theme, not invaded farm, but I appreciate the writeup, regardless!!

I love looking at an iDB entry and knowing I did it.

It's beautiful, but it makes me sad. This was supposed to be an MSP pet.

I really like the colours and attention to detail in the Burlap paintbrush, but I kind of wish it was a little saggier or baggier (like a burlap sack).
by purrmeister on June 30, 2025 6:21 PM NST
Awww the colour should have been MSP
by spongegrundo on June 30, 2025 6:29 PM NST
the saturation is so high on it, it being just a bit darker would be nice...or just straight up an MSP color.

Did they finally take the money and book it? they'll add some items but never update the news again? /j

Burlap is just Plushie 2 now I guess
by problematicperiplum on June 30, 2025 6:56 PM NST
@spongegrundo and academy- I'm gonna keep voting for it! Remember it for the October Pet Day Suggestions board if you want to as well!

The pilgrimage is far from over! 👏😄
by 1jediboy on June 30, 2025 7:48 PM NST
I really wanted that plushie design to be made into an actual color...
be careful what you wish for, i guess lol

Spooky burlap era is over, cutie burlap era is here.
by pancake on June 30, 2025 8:28 PM NST
I like the idea but the execution wasn’t perfect. It’s neither the luxury acara plush it’s based on nor is it burlap.

@marine_tiger: All I can promise is we will blindly copy and paste every time 😭
by dave on June 30, 2025 8:34 PM NST JN Staff
At least you guys are actually posting the news since tnt isn’t
by nightshadeswiftswing on June 30, 2025 8:41 PM NST
Love it! Want it! Got it!
by moonfairypuke on June 30, 2025 8:54 PM NST
So TNT can add a huge popup telling us to disable adblocker (HA not happening, it's hard enough to play with the ads that get around it as it is!) but they can't update the news? Every time they seem to do a little better, something gets worse.

Thanks you JN for always being there for us, at least!

As for the news itself... like others have said, that should have been an MSP paint, not burlap. Otherwise it's alright I guess.

Hate the right eye. It bothers me. Also no swirl on the horns. For sure not Burlap to me.

Hold onto hope!
Persevere!
Find the final triplet! ❤️

So first they get the date wrong on the last news (they put June 26th two days in a row) and now they didn't even bother to update the news at all?
by biediep on July 1, 2025 1:46 AM NST
Also, what is with the annoying circles on the Neopets homepage?
You know, the one at the top right just below your NP / NC and just above your pets?
Those used to only be for active events going on, but now they're basically just ads?!

Earlier the circle was like "buy our TCG set!" (uh yea, I literally can't, I'm from Europe)
And then it was like "Subscribe to Premium!!" (I AM. I've been a member for 2 decades...)
Get that garbage out of here :/
by biediep on July 1, 2025 2:18 AM NST
Remember when species exclusive outfits used to be NP items? I do, I remember.
by rafa_potter on July 1, 2025 3:50 AM NST
i think the color is really cute but doesn't feel very burlapy to me
by dagger on July 1, 2025 7:29 AM NST
What have they done to Burlap? And, why? Spooky Burlap was the OG idea. Why the change? Is this what most people asked for? Well, not me.

It looks like an ice cream cone gone awry....the artists need to go back and look at the Burlap Quiggle.

Granny outfit. What a tease. Where is Charity Corner, Granny?
by faellie_ridiculous on July 1, 2025 11:18 AM NST
Considering how they keep releasing repetitive pastel clouds and skies themed items (among others) for nc, I unfortunately think that many people must enjoy the change on burlaps, and turning everything cuter and rounder in general.

That aside, I'm always surprised on how TNT tries to please the players by doing something they asked for years, but never exactly in the way people want And it's not like they couldn't expand the MSP color and make the acara how it should have been, look how many standards they have broke lately (petpet wearables, essence pet styles...). Disappointing.
by kirisame on July 1, 2025 12:36 PM NST
Wow, a very different Burlap pet! I like it, personally, I really like the Burlap Paint Brush colour, and I think they did a good job on this one to give it a home-made and well-loved look. It`s not as creepy as other Burlaps, and it`s the first blue one we`ve gotten, so kind of hoping they make the Acara unique and stick to the original brown material going forward. Love the missing button eye! The Vira themed capsule was good, definitely better than what poor Kaus got..

Odd but neat.
