Animon Works Partners with Top Hat Studios for The Golden Catalyst Light Novel Series

By Josh PiedraJuly 6, 2021

Animon Works has announced that they have partnered with Top Hat Studios which will offer support to them in the marketing and distribution of their upcoming light novel series, The Golden Catalyst. Animon Works is the latest company to exclusively publish Original English Light Novels in the United States. Top Hat Studios develops, ports, and publishes media such as indie games, console games, visual novels, otomes, and more!

light novel series The Golden Catalyst

The Original English Light Novel series is currently up for funding on Kickstarter. Some of the rewards for different tier packages include the eBook and Paperback versions, a bookmark, voting input, and more. Some of the higher tiers include physical items such as keychains and standees. 

The Golden Catalyst is described as follows:

In March 2011, a race of intelligent alien species saved millions of Japanese citizens from a massive earthquake and tsunami. They introduced themselves as Catalysts having some to Earth with an offer – technology and knowledge that can propel humanity centuries ahead of its game, but in exchange for slaves.
Sixteen-year-old Green was one of these slaves who, after losing his sister and his limbs, swore revenge on the Catalysts and joined the (ironically named0 Invader to fight back.
Opportunity presents itself in the form of a mysterious half-human Catalyst who emits a golden light.

For more information on The Golden Catalyst and/or to back it, check out its page on Kickstarter at the following link: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1071877822/the-golden-catalyst-volume-1
