Newtral is the fifth studio album by Ikimono-gakari, released in Japan on February 29, 2012. It has reached number one on the Oricon Weekly charts, and became the group's fourth consecutive number-one album.

The album was released in Japan on February 29, 2012 in two editions. The regular edition (ESCL-3829), had for its first pressings an Ikimono card #028 and an entry form for additional prizes. The limited edition (ESCL-3827/8) included a second CD with live performances from 2009-2011, a set of album themed postcards titled Newseum ?, and special box packaging to display pictures of the three members.

The release day was coincident with vocalist Kiyoe Yoshioka's leap day (February 29) birthday. To celebrate the event, the group held a free event at Roppongi Hills Arena, and it was also streamed live on Nico Nico Douga.
