I'm the lead trumpet player, playing loud and high is all I know how to do.

This is tough, but I'll admit when I'm wrong and consume the entire humble pie: I was wrong.

This actually just happened, and is my Kemono Friends story:

*upon completion of episode 3*
wife: "So, are you going to continue watching this show?"
me: "I don't think so, it's really stupid, just too stupid..."
*unconsciously queues episodes 4 through 8 on my watchlist"
wife: "uh, then why are you picking up the remaining episodes?"
me: "...I HAVE TO KNOW WHAT CAUSED THIS POST-APOCALYPTIC SITUATION AHHH YOUKOSOU JAPARI PARK"

This show is an exploration of cognitive dissonance.

As such, I have to ask, why zebra slug, where did this cone from?

Serval asked the human kid "what's your name?" and she didn't know so Serval said "you have a cool bag let's call you Bag." Her name is literally Bag, and translators aren't translating it because they're dumb.

I thought they switched because her official English name was revealed as Kaban, so they had to comply

I had a stray thought that Sandstar was a metaphor for nuclear radiation, like if there was an abandoned amusement park near Fukushima or something (there is), then got to wondering about the pictures in the ending, and a few google clicks later it seems some of the locations have been found:

Six Flags, New Orleans, Louisiana

Boblo Island Amusement Park, Bois Blanc Island, Ontario

Pripyat amusement park, Pripyat, Chernobyl Exclusion Zone

The ending cut to the credits wow.

Despite all the cuts I made, the timing on that ending sequence was kept in tact from the source because it's already perfect :shobon:

They're programmed to fear fire, but the bear was like 'Eh, whatevs'.

Not to poo poo all over your theory, but I'm p sure this was just a nod to the notion that bears don't show the typical wild animal fear to fire, and have sometimes been documented investigating forest fires and being curious about them.

That first chase scene sets the entire tone and expectation of the series. I'd argue that without it being exactly like it is, this show may not have taken off as well as it did.

Why are they already more lifeless than the MMD tier models of the first and only season?

(MMD tier to acknowledge the aesthetics but the characters were incredibly alive, drat you)


This is kinda amazing to see the models side by side, and to see what a huge impact the last layer of shading will do for the final product.

Also it looks like Season 2 is completely overlooking the "shine in eye for existing species, dull eye for extinct species" nuance.
