There was also little to no diversity in terms of body type and ethnicity (they were mostly all skinnier white girls with european features and unrealistically large breasts), which kind of makes me sad because as lavender demonstrated; they could be so much better. 😢

      Fun fact: capybaras and crocodiles in many places are actually best friends. Despite being able to feed a croc for a good while these two creatures are the real world nick and Judy from zootopia (or zootropolis depending on where you live). This unexpected friendship between prey and predator is said to either originate from the croc’s difficulty to eat it in one go thus making them harder food to get or even the possibility of the capybara looking out for jaguars. After all, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

      I'm gonna have to heavily disagree here. I don't necessarily dislike most of these designs, but I believe the ones from Kemono Friends represent the animals much better. Of course it's somewhat limited because not animals can be translated well into humanoid designs, but for a number of them you can squint your eyes and it really looks just like the animal. I love Kemono Friends for that exact reason- The animal designs are pulled off incredibly well.

      @KogasaTatara514 11 месяцев назад +11

      @@ElizabethGeis I still disagree with that. Take this serval design for instance. If you were just shown that drawing with no context, what would you think about it? If it wasn't labeled as "serval" I'd have absolutely no idea it was supposed to be a serval.
      I'm not even being biased here with this. If you took the serval from this video, and the one from Kemono Friends, and put them side by side, which would you say a person unfamiliar with either would say represents a serval more?
      Plus, the characters shown in this video aren't even close to the best in terms of representing the animals they're based on. Some represent them much closer, to the point that, as I said, you could squint your eyes and really see the animal they're based on.

      ⁠​⁠@@KogasaTatara514I beg to differ.
      Sure, Lavendertowne didn’t really draw them as animal-people, but the title of the video is literally turning them into humans, not half human half animal.
      And for the KemonoFriends animals, the only one I think I would recognize is the first one.
      I wouldn’t know what animal the penguin was if they took the little penguins away.
      The only one I would recognize is the serval, and it just looks like a typical UwU anime cat girl.
      For Lavendertowne’s penguin, I would know because of the silhouette and the hat.
      Also if you think the designs in KemonoFriends are pulled off well, you’d be impressed by pretty much any show with animal designs. Kemonofriends designs are not unique in any way except for the animals they represent.

    Lavendertowne’s designs are just so much better in my opinion. Kemono Friend’s designs just seem like they’re vaguely trying to look like the animal while focusing too much on trying to make the girls lewd. Lavendertowne’s designs however actually have interesting design features and focus more on the animal and not making them sexualised, which is so much better. Fantastic characters Lavendertowne! Can’t wait to see what else is in store.

    Lavendertowne’s designs were more unique and taking the actual animal’s traits into account, and her designs were way more original, and her ideas were may more creative.
    KemonoFriends basically just took an anime girl and slapped some cute animal features onto it.
    KemonoFriends just made their characters look cutesy, while Lavendertowne’s designs looked a little more natural and more realistic.
    And for the emperor penguin, KemonoFriends version doesn’t even look like a penguin, it’s just the color palette.
    Not to mention, she even EDUCATES us while drawing, and not just in this video, in many others too! I know now a lot of poison facts because of her “Drawing Deadly Poisons As People” series. And she uses those facts in her designs to make them more accurate and unique.

      It is an anime-based game, unsure if it's actually made in Japan but you have to remember that Japan is 98% Japanese and the majority of that 2% is still other east-Asian ethnicities. The lack of skin tone/body diversity in Japanese pop culture has always been a problem and I wouldn't necessarily blame the individual game for not upholding to Western standards; it's more something for the industry as a whole to work towards.

The last hope we had was a sighting on video in 2015 of one in the wild, and they're so important that they're an Okinawan national monument. Could you do a person based on this cat specifically one day? Nobody really knows about Okinawan history and how we started the praise of Shibe Inus well before Japan was founded.

Emp penguins hair and headphones actually make up the shape of the penguins beak and head, much like lavendertowne has done in her own design :)
    I also would like to point out many of the designs use traits for animals for unique clothing choices, like king cobra and snakes having hoods on hoodies to give the character of the shape of a snake!
    Kemono friends actually has a lot of really cool designs i think a lot of people arent giving credit for ^^
    They also make use of hairstyles for their characters personality, like scarlet macaws hair is colored and shaped to look like the actual macaws beak!
    Anyways. I was just a bit pet peeved that people were criticizing it all on a few bad designs shown in the video.
