Listen I don’t care if your a furry do what makes you happy just don’t be a furry and a bad person because it ruins the reputation of the other furries
For so long I was put off from publicly talking about being a furry or even posting my furry art because of people like this, I PROMISE the majority of us are just normal people who prefer to express ourselves through a fursona
@@Thebetterparadisesystem Especially with anime fans, that predator behavior to have "Younger" looking partners and fetishizing Japan or Asian people in general is so normalized in the community it NEVER gets shutdown as hard as it should be
As a furry as well, I don't blame him, it sucks being in a community were outsiders only ever hear about the bad apples and compare us to them. Won't make me stop being a furry tho, just more cautious about who I interact with
Idk if the video mentions it yet but one of the "predator hunters/commentators" in the furry community, who has frequently spoken out about sappho, STARTED DATING HER AND TRIED TO DEFEND HER!?? I just remember seeing him not post for months and searching him up bc i was curious why I DID NOT EXPECT HIM TO BE SLEEPING WITH THE ENEMY/hj
Kenji immediately pinging that most of the furry community is doctors and dentists is hilarious Gonna suck for him when he finds out most of the American IT industry is furries
there's a clip of PirateSoftware saying it's scary to imagine a plane going down the weekend of a furry con bc the US tech infrastructure would be down for weeks lmfao.
I'm a kemonomimi (someone who likes wearing animal ears and tails.), but I'm not that crazy. Being a zoophile is terrible, especially when their a furry (therian, etc..) I dress up a little but never in public. This side of the community is what I hate the most (especially when I'm 15 myself turning 16 this year). I find most of this community disgusting, but most of the community is very artistic and sweet! Let's just say don't go anywhere where people are disgusting and weird (like child predators, Zoophiles ( someone who is attracted animals in a romantic gesture.)) There are some bad people who dress up at these people and scam, Exploit, and more terrible things. So.. Let's just stay on the fun side! 😅🎉
A kemonomimi isn't a person who likes wearing ears and a tail. They are humanoid characters in anime/manga who have animal like features, such as the ears and tail of an animal.
Ooo i didnt know it was called that. I wear animal ears and tail and gloves basically everywhere i can and i just call myself the dog version of a neko. Im at the point in life i dont care and i love my tail and ears
I’m also a kemonomimi (plus a furry) it really sucks when there’s so much stigma in these fandoms and how many weird stuff there is right out in public as well. There are so many nice and friendly people here that are actually normal
Honestly therians and flurries and those fairy Tok kids and the puppet dragon paper things have to be one of the most hated things on social media and for no reason but also some reasons too😭
Ya but mostly for no reason since most people who hate on them only hate on the good ones because there "cringe" instead of hating on the bad people in those communities
@@SpotSplatter_Splash yeah But then again There's Alot of haters who does that because they think the whole community is bad when it's actually not and sometimes they don't know Which one to hate on cuz some of them be kid's so- but your right!
Most of the ppl in the furry community are ..... i guess aware (?) of these black sheeps are VERY LOUD about the fact that we do not claim them. They are vocal about the fact if the Perso is a selfproclaimed "Map" and or "Zoophilie" that there NOT part of the Community! Most ppl of the furry community are awesome and sooo damn wholesome..... qvq
NOT SAPPHO. So I'm not in the furry community directly BUT I interact with them a lot as an artist. So many furries are absolutely amazing, hell they're the backbone of the tech industry and even science community. A lot of them are also on the spectrum/nrodivergent so a fursona almost acts as a buffer when interacting with others, it also means a lot of them often get unfortunately prayed on ecause of this. It sucks so much that people like this are "in" it with the majority of the community shuns them creeps like that really taint it and try to pry on others. Hell I've seen it happen in anime and art communities as well. I've been in the creepypasta Fandom for a long time and when the extream creeps and weirdos got loud it really tainted the whole community for a long time. Sorry for the rant its just a topic close to home and I've seen the furry community defend a lot of artists and good people before.
to be a happy furry is to Stay Away from the full community, like just meeting with my closest friends and that's it.. also being in the cons, no big deal happens in the Public area
Just because a part of a community is bad, it doesn't mean the entire community is, but even so people shit on flurries because they think it's weird and unusual. You can have your opinions on things, but I don't think it's right to automatically think someone is bad or hate on them Just because they're a furry.
I kinda don’t blame them, it’s inconsiderate to only think about how I feel in a situation, where people can look at a news report of a man killing a family to take a little girl. I love the community. I think the suits are great. But is gonna come with thick skin. because sad to say a lot of people use this community to use as a sexual outlet. And with how y’all want to welcome children that needs to be shut down.
YESSS!! This like just because a part of a community is bad doesn't mean that speaks for the entire community. 😭✋🏾 Especially when the furry community does NOT claim them at all.
Most people who have reacted to furries only react to the bad side. But what they don't realize is that further hate these people just as much if not more than the people outside the community.
I think I agree with you. I’ve seen a lot of comments from people in the furry community, and they are all very vocal in condemning this ‘dark side’ of the community. It’s a shame that a few bad apples can ruin a community’s image
@@KenjiPlus i think the main thing behind furries getting a reputation for having these types of bad people is because they're really good at calling them out. bad people are present everywhere after all.
@@KenjiPlus i dont think this type of videos help it ether. especialy with a thumbnail and tite like that. if we put more voice on the bad side, it will be louder
@@redmaster3542 I honestly think it’s because we’re not putting permanent roadblocks to prevent predators from joining the community. There has been numerous times where a convicted predator, being allowed access within conventions because they know somebody. Cause if we’re going to be completely honest, the inherent sexual nature of the community doesn’t help with public perception. Considering there are cases after cases of assaults of a minor or animal. Because if you don’t like a bad reputation, it’s best to not do bad things.
Also to elaborate on Dennis comment. Paper suits are getting more common nowadays but the fandom is very divided whether or not it counts. Recently there's been a firstly auction and someone put in 60k which was later reduced to 25k but the most a suit was ever sold was 50k USD I believe.
Legit, Sappho is a disgusting example of someone within our community. There are also quite a few more examples of absolutely abhorrent people. Like the Carpet guy that made his entire suit from stuffed animals that he...💦 upon. Guy is a walking plague. While we have many issues in our community, there's still the light of hope. We'll get our shit together eventually.
FRIENDLY REMINDER: NO, THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY IS NOT BAD. Picture it like this, furrys are just cosplaying their own characters. Do they FULLY identify as animals? NO. When in the costume, most of the time its normally just a costume, they dont FULLY identify as said character, much like cosplayers, HOWEVER, sometimes, furrys will roleplay as the character because of kids, these fursuits can catch kdis attention because they look like something out of a cartoon, so they will play as the character to "keep the magic", however, yes, sadly this does attract p3d0s, BUT, a BIG CHUNK of the fandom has made it their goal to try and keep it safe, especially for the younger members. Please don't let these people control your judgement over the fandom, the fandom have done some pretty awesome things, like giving to charity, helping those in need, and doing many more :3
Dude, I’m literally minor and a furry, people really think I’m like this?? Like bro, all I do, is draw little drawings of my fursona, and watch some memes, what do they think I’m doing😭 (I’m also a alterhuman but that’s not the point, also, I probably won’t be answering people as I don’t go back to old videos and look at my commit much, but I might😁)
I have cousin who is furry she is so wholesome and nice. Like i said "all fandoms have their bad side." sadly we only see bad side of the furry fandom. + I also get commissions from furry fandom bc i draw komonomi/furry art, even tho my art is bad they like it!
I think what people dont understand is that there are bad, inappropriate and disgusting people in e v e r y community especially in the art community as a whole and its always annoyed me that when it comes to the furry community, all the negative things is all people focus on because people think its weird, but for some reason no one ever focuses on it when it comes to literally any other niche community. To me furries and having a fursona or fursuit is no different than cosplay and people find that cool and acceptable so I think most of the hate is due to people being uneducated and misinformed about what a furry is. People like to lump people into a monoliths to say "if your interested in this, this and this then you must be like this this and this and you must be and evil and disgusting person" and thats just a really jaded, judgemental and wrong way to veiw people and communities. Additionally Zoophiles are n o t furries. Its an entire different and completey deranged thing that often gets twisted into being realted to furry activity and it's not true at all, its a backwards attraction to animals which has absolutely n o t h i n g to do with simply enjoying costumes, art and having a alternative online persona. Yes some people in the furry community can be inappropriate but again thats in every community. Most furries are just normal, sweet and creative people that express themselves through their fursona and just have niche hobbie like many other people in different communities. (Like the anime community, art community, doll community, lego community, cosplay community, you name it ect.)
Also, please don't think this is all the furry community it not all like that the other half that normal donates lots of money to people. This is just to know
I’m not a furry but I have a lot of friends who are and seeing this shit pisses me off, because every person I’ve met that is part the community are honest to god good people.
This thumbnail gave me WHIPLASH for a hot minute I had to make sure if this was real. Kanji, please for the health of your sanity, STAY AWAY do not go further down this rabbit hole!!! As a "furry" myself, I really hate the community, it's sadly indrecibly full of horrible people who take hobbies wayyyyy too far.
I am a proud Therian and Furry. I think I speak for all valid Furries, Therians, Kemonomimis, and Dragon Puppeteers when I say none of us wants to associate with Zoos, Maps, Haters. Understandably because our fandom has received hate for so long, some of us no longer care and brush it off as a normal routine at this point. Which includes me as well because I am fairly public with it, [wearing tails, masks, and YT Vids], and have received people barking, spitting hateful comments, and overall rude ass questions. I remember the time I went to a park with my cousin. We were both in gear and there were other kids there. I tell myself: "Everything will be fine. Do your confidence building before you start quads." I gained my confidence, did a few quads and tree climbing, and some boys came up to my cousin. No offense, but I don't trust boys more than I do girls when it comes to our public therianthopy, so I'm immediately on edge when they approach her and I go to them and tell her to stay behind me. They asked us these series of questions. "Think you can crawl around for us? I wanna see your guys' asses some more." "Do you like animals? I won't mind being your fucking pet if it means seeing you naked and whining for more." "Do you actually think you're a fucking animal? If so we can get you a leash and can come with us." "Can you bark for us? Or stretch like a damn cat so we can see that arch?" I think they specifically meant it for me, [because my cousin is 7yo], but either way, I was seething, disapointed, and disgusted. I told my cousin we were leaving and we stayed away from the park for 2 weeks before going back. If I had to guess, those boys were around 17-19. I was 15 and still am now, so this was recent. TLDR; Nobody in the Furry, Therian, Kemonomimi, or Dragon Puppeteer communities want anything to do with Zoos, Maps, and Haters. We are all over the hate at this point and I explain a story where me, [15] and I think my cousin, [7], were asked inappropriate questions at the park from some 17-19 boys just because we were Therians.
As a furry. I promise we are not all like this, a large majority of the fandom push these people out with rage. But sadly, there are people out there who are nasty that use the furry fandom as a cover. It’s unfortunate. Because I use my suit to express myself, for me it is COMPLETELY sfw. (And just to note sense the comments “it probably smells in there, and shit stains” were made to all suiters, which honestly just were not necessary..Nearly all of us clean our suits after every event or suiting time. A lot of furries put a lot of work into saving their money, budgeting and making their suits. These stories are the absolute worst case scenarios in the fandom. And most of the fandom are children or adults who aren’t..nasty. Like these freaks are. I don’t even consider these people furries in my heart. I just wanna say I’m sorry for the long text chunk! I’m just tired of the entire fandom being wrapped up with these people.
As a furry who loves watching kenji, I’m sorry for the part of the community that’s just horrible.. I do NOT fucking like zoophiles nor support them (pedos too, F off if ur one of those) And to clear it up, us good furries, we DO NOT THINK WE ARE ANIMALS 2:11 perfectly fine, support us, like us, we don’t care, just have decent respect
It's crazy that Kero the Wolf, Snakething or Quantum Kitty weren't even mentioned. The rabbit hole goes so much deeper than the things said in this video, it's absolutely insane.
Controversial take: A community shouldn't be judged based on its worst parts. It's like saying that all Pokemon fans are sweaty basement dwellers, despite how many of them are just enjoying the game.
The situation with Haruda really sounds like one of my experiences with another furry I bought an emergency commission from back in 2022. Yes. They didn't even get started on it for a whole year
furry here, i absolutely avoid furry groups cause of things like this so i instead just play a kahjiit in slyrim and stuff lol DISTURBING CONTENT got a bit pf ptsd from past experiences- and just wish i could trust other furries around my dog ... ( i stopped anything from happening before it got to *that* point, but still) instead i have my grandma, mom, or husband watch my babies ( i have cats tooo ) while im out
I still have screen recordings of being in spaces on twitter with Sappho or anyone associated with her. I was a very active "Anti" for a bit. I distinctly remember being in an anti-zoo discord server and talking mad shit about a user named "Becca". She was claiming dogs could consent and was getting more aggravated trying to give examples, tho in the discord server I made a joke saying "She's mad cuz her dog isn't throwing gang signs to consent"
bro...I was doing homework with this video playing through my headphones until I heard my name being mentioned at 4:16 😭😭 I was hella confused like wtf?!
I never thought Kenji would see Hypnotist Sappho. I've been watching the art commentary space and they've been ripping her to shreds for YEARS. Glad to add Kenji to the list of people jumping her lol
I grew up 30 minutes from Reading PA and those guys bully you for being a casual fan of anime. So I know exactly what the hics think about people like this. All I got to say is that furries are the reason bullying should continue to exist. I've known about 20 furries in the past 5 years. Only 1 out of those 20 furries weren't sexual degenerates. So from my experience alone. 1 out of 20 furries aren't weirdos. 5%. Sorry, but at that point the entire thing is weird. Please don't try to justify to me why you find the Beast from Beauty and The Beast to be sexy. We know it's not simply, because he's humanoid. It's because you get off on the fact he looks like an animal.
Look those people join the community just to hide that they are that way it makes me sick that they call them self furries I'm apart of the furry community and I don't know who in the right mine would try to ruin good people who are just trying to express them self and enjoy themselves to Spread the fun of being yourself
when talking about a really horrible person who calls themselves a furry but really isnt, i feel you shouldnt lump the rest of the furries in with her. WE DO NOT condone anything THOSE people have done.
I feel so bad for the morally good furries cuz these r the people theyre compared to bro😭
exactly if I were to say I'm in the fandom I will be relentlessly bullied 😞

Don't worry my boyfriend is the same way... However, for his own safety he had to give it up. 💔💔💔
Yeah after this im def not looking at yall the same 😂 but by all means do what makes yall happy as long as it doesn't hurt others
18:03 Kenji moving his avatar and beating people through the screen genuinely makes my day better XDXD
i always like that lol
a ZOOPHILE ew what is wrong with people 🤢 (ALSO W GLASSES KENJI YOU HAVE JOINED THE GLASSES CLUB!!!!)
My biggest theory is because a lot of kids are in the furry community, a lot of creeps gravitate towards it, if that makes sense
Absolutely, a good chunk of the community are nuerodivergent too, so that can also make them more vulnerable to creeps
definitely, the furry fandom is a pedophile magnet at this point because of the amount of minors here (speaking as a minor, whose also a furry)
It does more like the zoophilia addicts.
100% definitely that happens with a lot of fandoms unfortunately

Also, please don't think this is all the furry community it not all like that the other half that normal donates lots of money to people. This is just to know
8:37 oh. Very creative and interesting photos
9:25 OH GET THE HELL OUT WHAT THE HELL
2 posts in 2 days kenji is feeding us
I’m not a furry but I have a lot of friends who are and seeing this shit pisses me off, because every person I’ve met that is part the community are honest to god good people.
This thumbnail gave me WHIPLASH for a hot minute I had to make sure if this was real. Kanji, please for the health of your sanity, STAY AWAY do not go further down this rabbit hole!!! As a "furry" myself, I really hate the community, it's sadly indrecibly full of horrible people who take hobbies wayyyyy too far.
KENJI YOU CANT PUT THAT IN THE THUMBNAIL😭🙏
Zoophlia is a worst thing i swear.
Being in the furry fandom is a death sentence 😔
I been waiting for this to drop since the stream 👏
I am a proud Therian and Furry.
I think I speak for all valid Furries, Therians, Kemonomimis, and Dragon Puppeteers when I say none of us wants to associate with Zoos, Maps, Haters.
Understandably because our fandom has received hate for so long, some of us no longer care and brush it off as a normal routine at this point. Which includes me as well because I am fairly public with it, [wearing tails, masks, and YT Vids], and have received people barking, spitting hateful comments, and overall rude ass questions.
I remember the time I went to a park with my cousin. We were both in gear and there were other kids there. I tell myself: "Everything will be fine. Do your confidence building before you start quads." I gained my confidence, did a few quads and tree climbing, and some boys came up to my cousin. No offense, but I don't trust boys more than I do girls when it comes to our public therianthopy, so I'm immediately on edge when they approach her and I go to them and tell her to stay behind me. They asked us these series of questions.
"Think you can crawl around for us? I wanna see your guys' asses some more."
"Do you like animals? I won't mind being your fucking pet if it means seeing you naked and whining for more."
"Do you actually think you're a fucking animal? If so we can get you a leash and can come with us."
"Can you bark for us? Or stretch like a damn cat so we can see that arch?"
I think they specifically meant it for me, [because my cousin is 7yo], but either way, I was seething, disapointed, and disgusted. I told my cousin we were leaving and we stayed away from the park for 2 weeks before going back.
If I had to guess, those boys were around 17-19. I was 15 and still am now, so this was recent.
TLDR; Nobody in the Furry, Therian, Kemonomimi, or Dragon Puppeteer communities want anything to do with Zoos, Maps, and Haters. We are all over the hate at this point and I explain a story where me, [15] and I think my cousin, [7], were asked inappropriate questions at the park from some 17-19 boys just because we were Therians.
I regret searching what zoofile means, I need some holy water 😭
THERE WAS NO NEED FOR THIS THUMBNAIL KENJI LMFAOOO
As a furry. I promise we are not all like this, a large majority of the fandom push these people out with rage. But sadly, there are people out there who are nasty that use the furry fandom as a cover. It’s unfortunate.
Because I use my suit to express myself, for me it is COMPLETELY sfw.
(And just to note sense the comments “it probably smells in there, and shit stains” were made to all suiters, which honestly just were not necessary..Nearly all of us clean our suits after every event or suiting time.
A lot of furries put a lot of work into saving their money, budgeting and making their suits.
These stories are the absolute worst case scenarios in the fandom. And most of the fandom are children or adults who aren’t..nasty. Like these freaks are. I don’t even consider these people furries in my heart.
I just wanna say I’m sorry for the long text chunk! I’m just tired of the entire fandom being wrapped up with these people.
23:50 let's hope we're thinking of the same person 🥰🤩😘🤩😘
As a furry who loves watching kenji, I’m sorry for the part of the community that’s just horrible.. I do NOT fucking like zoophiles nor support them (pedos too, F off if ur one of those)
And to clear it up, us good furries, we DO NOT THINK WE ARE ANIMALS
2:11 perfectly fine, support us, like us, we don’t care, just have decent respect
THE THUMBNAIL SO BRAVE YET SO CONTROVERSIAL
It's crazy that Kero the Wolf, Snakething or Quantum Kitty weren't even mentioned. The rabbit hole goes so much deeper than the things said in this video, it's absolutely insane.
Vtubers and furries have a lot in common
Like their drama channels
Not plush diddy😭9:30
I immediately clicked after seeing the word furry
I knew you were from PA, but I didn’t know you were from Reading PA, or at least that’s what I you said, but I grew up there too!
9:32 KENJI NO
Oh no.. 11:02 I think I know where that’s going.. 17:35 NO EWW
HELP WTF 10:38 AND IT GETS WORSE????
Controversial take: A community shouldn't be judged based on its worst parts. It's like saying that all Pokemon fans are sweaty basement dwellers, despite how many of them are just enjoying the game.
The situation with Haruda really sounds like one of my experiences with another furry I bought an emergency commission from back in 2022. Yes. They didn't even get started on it for a whole year
Good example of “a few bad apples make the whole batch look bad”
Not the thumbnail change lmaoo
YEESSSS A NEW KENJI VIDEO EVEYONE😁😁
furry here, i absolutely avoid furry groups cause of things like this so i instead just play a kahjiit in slyrim and stuff lol
DISTURBING CONTENT
got a bit pf ptsd from past experiences- and just wish i could trust other furries around my dog ... ( i stopped anything from happening before it got to *that* point, but still)
instead i have my grandma, mom, or husband watch my babies ( i have cats tooo ) while im out
23:52 loving the shade😭😭😂😂😂
The thumbnail Kenji and the video Kenji reminded me of the pfp vs irl meme
I still have screen recordings of being in spaces on twitter with Sappho or anyone associated with her. I was a very active "Anti" for a bit.
I distinctly remember being in an anti-zoo discord server and talking mad shit about a user named "Becca". She was claiming dogs could consent and was getting more aggravated trying to give examples, tho in the discord server I made a joke saying "She's mad cuz her dog isn't throwing gang signs to consent"
whose gonna tell kenji he's a borderline furry... monkey persona he uses online and pays a lot of money to commission a model for
Hopefully he knows that most furries are not like this
kenji is back with another banger
wait wait wait. Kenji youre from Reading?!?!?? That's like 30-45 minutes away from where I live
Ain’t like I hate furries, but most the time the ones I come across are just mad weird.
Seeing sapho appear made me throw my phone in disgust, fear, and sadness
Not even 30 seconds in 😭
“reminds me of someone… sounds familiar” 👀👀
Quick someone fill me in on the lore behind that crazy shade that got thrown!!! LOLL
Ye im curious too
bro...I was doing homework with this video playing through my headphones until I heard my name being mentioned at 4:16 😭😭 I was hella confused like wtf?!
Vr chat is so interesting lol I've met some genuinely funny and sweet people but like I've also met alot of weirdos ita kinda a gamble tbh
23:40 cough cough dove cough cough
Kenji gotta step reeeeal carefully around this kinda topic-
NEEED A NEW STEPHANIE ROTTEN MANGO Reaction VIDEO!!!!❤
Oh no I'm already scared 😭😭
I never thought Kenji would see Hypnotist Sappho. I've been watching the art commentary space and they've been ripping her to shreds for YEARS. Glad to add Kenji to the list of people jumping her lol
I grew up 30 minutes from Reading PA and those guys bully you for being a casual fan of anime. So I know exactly what the hics think about people like this. All I got to say is that furries are the reason bullying should continue to exist. I've known about 20 furries in the past 5 years. Only 1 out of those 20 furries weren't sexual degenerates. So from my experience alone. 1 out of 20 furries aren't weirdos. 5%. Sorry, but at that point the entire thing is weird. Please don't try to justify to me why you find the Beast from Beauty and The Beast to be sexy. We know it's not simply, because he's humanoid. It's because you get off on the fact he looks like an animal.
10:32 NOOOO NOT DEVIOUS ART
Look those people join the community just to hide that they are that way it makes me sick that they call them self furries I'm apart of the furry community and I don't know who in the right mine would try to ruin good people who are just trying to express them self and enjoy themselves to Spread the fun of being yourself
I wanted to forget Sappho… 🗿
Hey Kenji, I recommend watching “Johny Samali: The most hated man in Korea” done by rotten mango.
when talking about a really horrible person who calls themselves a furry but really isnt, i feel you shouldnt lump the rest of the furries in with her. WE DO NOT condone anything THOSE people have done.
