How.
Knot sure
People like dogs also people feel sorry for her
Diamond Doggo
A small snippet of episode 12 was leaked on youtube, which entails her end game.
So I take it that the Friends die off one by one until finally Kaban dies last?
Tell me you didn't feel some sort of warmth when Domestic Dog was snuggling up to a human and doing all the things she enjoyed, that unconditional love that dogs tend to emanate, replicated in her character
being the only good thing to come out of this shitshow
I'm hype for Kemono Friends R
Sad doggy
One of the few good things to come out of S2
Wan wan!
>in the last episode the Beast will save the day
Kinda kills the reason to bring her up at all if this happens though, they just wanted to beat up the poor doggo right?
>friends join forces and defeat ship cerulean
>everyone celebrates, kyruru gives a speech about how she finally found her "home"
>last minute of the episode, dog finally shows up
>beast appears out of nowhere and beats her up, then leaves
>everyone just silently stare at doggo as she lays on the floor
>credits roll
>End with Serval Carcal and Kuyuru getting on a boat to explore other island and an injured Dog and Kaban watch them leave
This is Tsuchinoko
please say something nice about her
Dumb worm
look at her go
Beep
KSHAAAAAAAAA
kdkw please give KF4
beep would never leave pronghorn alone
So what was the point of Beasts again?
She has to when Prong is going on a date with Cheetah
The Beast cerulean copy is going to become the new Cerval and sacrifice itself to save the park in a plot twist.

Reverse rape and futa doujins
I think it was supposed to introduce a new plot element but then they either forgot about it or are saving it for KF3. Though if I were to guess I think Beasts are what happens if a Friend is exposed to more sandstar.
It what happens to a friends that get a taste of blood.
What happens to friends that get a taste of semen?
She wasn't in s2!
We don't talk about those ones
ahem
The number one thing that intrigues me is the fact in a place with all sorts of fantastic and exotic animals, the creators of the park understood that a common animal such as a domestic holds a special place in human hearts. Her entire purpose was to bring a sense of home to the visitors of the park, and show affection no matter the person. This is why of all characters, she feels the most tragic to me. Her entire purpose of being was lost, yet she still waits instead of moving on.
Cansada de ser bueno, Serval-Chan fue al lado oscuro con el sandstar low y se hizo una amigo de la oscuridad. Con la poder de los cerúleos, ella mató a Kaban y ahora es la jefa de parque Japari.
Those don't count and also are the only redeeming feature of s2!
What about Serval Lily?
if she's not in by the end of season 2 im gonna throw away all of my tsuchinoko merch.
Man that tail is thick
Season 2 is non-canon so it's okay.
I wonder what were they thinking when making Ep 9.
Holy shit.
I just figured it was a S1 bad end where Kaban didn't save Serval in time and lost her boss from the boat sinking. Only reason i can figure why she seems distant from Serval because it is not hers.
Serval died, this is a new Serval
which doesn't explain why she has the same voice actor (friends should have new voice actors every generation)
They said Friends lose their memories if they get turned into an animal and back again.
That's what happened to Serval.
"""Human""".
>non canon
you can say this all you want, but seeing as how bad season 2 is doing in reviews i doubt it'll get a 3rd.
this is the last we'll get. might as well treat it as canon since it wont have the chance to be retconed.
It is basically basically Evangelion Rebuild 3.0
>Pointless time skip
>World massively changed little is explained
>Undoes the good ending of the last one
>The person you saved forgets you everyone is out of character
>Shit sequel that no one wanted
Now the ending just need Carcal or Dog to die for no reason
S3 was already confirmed though! It's a mobile game!
>mobile game
Absolutely fucking garbage.
Watch your language Caracal
How do Friends have better hearing if they use human ears?
Crashing this Kyururu.
these fucking berries are fucking delicious
W O A H
IF Y'ALL STUPID ASS MOTHERFUCKERS KEEP RINGING THIS GODDAMN BELL I SWEAR TO EVERYTHING THAT IS GOOD AND HOLY I WILL SHOVE MY FOOT SO FAR UP YOUR ASS YOU'LL TASTE THE GROUND I WALKED ON.
How tall are the friends?
Do these count?
Do you guys remember that fucking scene where Hululu fucking died? How was it allowed on screen? Did they not get warnings after Serval got hit my a bus?
She's finally with Grape-kun
Look at the other penguins, they don't even notice
Someone post that image that shows Arai-san and Fennec don't even share the same cart.
Don't post gore!
Kemono Friends G Project 3.
Not A project 3.
Jesus Christ she's taking them to the japari death camps.
NEVER!
ALONE!
That's the power of good girls.
Heck I'm adopting one tomorrow so I must admit that as humans we just want want to see good girls get a happy ending.
>Riding with this drunk without a seatbelt

There are some moments in this world that you can tell right away are going to go down in history
Kaban please get your life together!
The animation was so hilariously weird. I want a gif of that scene.
the show in general has a bunch of weird animation, user
Shit if you remembered S1 and got stuck in S2 and had to watch your best friend die and forget you you would drink away the pain as well.
What is that dark spot?
>Kemono Friends 3 is an upcoming mobile game developed and published by SEGA. Releasing in 2019, the game is meant to be a sequel to Kemono Friends 2 as the next numbered title in the Kemono Friends franchise.
Reminds me of the door in ATHF
It really looks like she kicked herself off
Dear God.
The owls aren't actually her assistants they are just there to take care of her during her depressions and suicidal/alcoholic episodes.
Can't let the old hero/curry cook die on them.
off to the glue factory
They were whinging so much in this scene
bless this shit
Do you remember Kharak? How it burned that day...
FUCK
Wait, who died?
Me
I thought that was from the original macross at first.
Pretty sure Bushiroad's game is KF Project G 2.
I'm not sure anymore if they meant KF 3 as the game project or not.
Serval considering she end up dying between every other release in this series.
If Serval could use Wild Release to stand up to Tiger Beast in episode 9, why couldn't she do it back in episode 5 or 6?
So realistically speaking, which friend would be more susceptible to suffering this implication
Tiger seems about right to me
…
>Friends represent the most defining and renown features of their species.
>Kaban, the human friend, is a dead inside alcoholic in S2 who is going to work herself to death.
Wow, they nailed the modern Japanese worker.
(`・ω・´)
Kaban... Kaban had a hard life she needs some time to rest.
Wouldn't it be hilarious if Serval was just playing with her?
Post kemonokaban
If that's the twist next episode Arc-V stands no chance of maintaining its record
This?
or this?
Someone should hold Kaban and tell her things will be okay.
I feel like either Fennec or Dog could help her.
Is this where they make Japari Buns?
I wish I could read moonrunes.
Season 1 is just an allegory of school in japan where people are still happy in a time of wonder and friends before the crushing salaryman life kicks in and takes away your friends and happiness
Stop posting this forever
Even our Tofu has gone sour.
When did we lose our way?
We don't talk about it
Please continue posting.
Man, I really wanted to see her
Kaban is a broken woman. What does she even do all day?
Kaban is burnt out because she has to cull the friends before they give in to their instincts from using wild release too much and turn into to Beasts
Protecting the park is soul crushing work
Remember the good old days while she cries herself to sleep.
Honestly it is probably to this picture.
How many Servals did she have to kill?
Serveral
Too many user too many
Serval was always too much of a hero for her own good.
She never realized the same thing was happening to her.
Or she chose to ignore it.
She let ceruleans eat Serval multiple times in her laboratory to experiment with the memory loss theory.
Punished Kaban posting makes me feel like death.
She let them eat multiple friends in order to figure out how to bring her back.
Sadly her experiment with Siberian tiger escaped
Hell she basically lives in a Jurassic park lab
She will be the villain next episode and go full Ai Yo Rebellion style
this edit is absolutely mindblowing
I came from Japan, and now in Japan such things are popular.
How many Japari Buns has she consumed in her time in the Park?
what is this supposed to be?
So, last episode releases on monday on April fools day
KF2 was a joke all along
Basically people don't like S2 so much that they decided to make their own story with blackjack and hookers, starting with fixing Kyururu's garbage and preventing dog from needing to be saved in the first place.
Does anyone know where I can find information on Wild Release?
Tomoe-chan, a character created by a Japanese author who modified Kyururu, has become popular.
>painted nails
I've seen things... you Friends wouldn't believe. Paper planes on fire flying past the shoulder of a Cerulean. I watched Mirai's hologram glitter in the dark near Japari Lodge. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.
>Shadow antagonist who hired the dumb rolling dogs
>Just wanted a Human to be with her
>Gets abandoned after being brutally beaten
Wasted plot point. Dog was ruined.
Half heartedly cook for the owls and torture serval clones
cute feet
It needs more bullying.
>Such quality fan art
S2 doesn't deserve it-
What a cutie.
Our hopes and dreams about a great season 2.
An alternate timeline where Kyururu has a decent haircut and has dog and maybe Beep! as her traveling buddy.
Her character introduction scene in ep.9 is literally the only good part of Kemono Friends season 2.
As such episode 9 is the only KF2 episode I rewatched, even if I have to skip that awful retarded ending.
It's because she actually displays real emotion whenever she's around instead of only maybe 10% of the time for all the other characters.
Dog is running in with the wrong crowd!
But ep 10 was good.
Why do Fennec and Arai-san appear in the opening yet they just appear in a few episodes?
Bait and switch.
I clapped.
And ep 3
Pls watch our show.
EP3 had that strange, lifeless "sugoi" from Serval.
This. But then the main feels you get from the episode is "well, she got abandoned".
Ah well, at least I felt something, even if it was depression. Didn't really happen for most of S2 otherwise.
Invert Friends franchise when? Japs have one of the biggest boners for insects in the world.
>Fang
Picked up, any more art?
These two were sadly wasted potential just like everything else in S2. It would have been better if they appeared every two episodes or so giving out their cryptic advice instead of showing up near the end.
Gokicha is like if you took the second half of ep 9 and made an entire series out of it.
They're part of the idol group.
It needs a real anime.
...
This girl's cute. Is s2 actually worth watching?
I don't like this.
No (yes).
I enjoyed her cameo in Kemurikusa
KF2 broke Alpaca Suri...
Closest thing right now is Skyfish since in spite of the name they're kind of insect-like, kind of like Man Faced Fish is the only Fish Friend.
>Head of KF2 Merchandising
The likelihood of an animal turning into a Friend has to do with how closely related to humans they are. That's why there are many mammals, some birds, few reptiles/amphibians and no(?) invertebrates/fish.
Rods?
Yep, she's based on this.
I'd probably nut if I saw a Dragonfly friend
Yes!
That fucking lens flare lmao
Do you think Kimura would agree to direct hypothetical S3. Or they would find another sacrifice.
After fan backlash against him on social media and recieving death threats I don't think he would want to comes back for S3.
Because why not?
PPP only appeard in ONE (1) episode too in S1.
>I enjoyed her cameo in Kemurikusa
I now have a reason to watch it, if youre not tricking me
PPP had a brief segment in almost all the episodes in addition to their focus episode.
There's a similar hooded "rough" character but don't expect her to get much screentime.
That's the nature of a cameo, user
I'm fine with it
This is nothing though. It's juts a silly 3 seconds long segment and it's not even animated.
It's like saying that Fennec and Arai also appear in every episode of S2 (since they appear in the OP).
Its more than just an appearance in the OP/ED though, each of those segments was different from the other and gave some insight into their characters before they even properly appeared in the show. And its about 10 times more than Fennec and Arai-san got in KF2.
Yeah and PPP wasn't exactly important to the plot either.
Who said anything about importance to the plot? The point is that they're a shitty comparison to use for because the they do something in most of the episodes, even if its just a crappy brief non-animated segment.
Please visit her
I know, I agree with you. I was just trying to say that arai/fennec deserved more
She charges through the roof
>gave some insight into their characters
It was quite literally a joke segment where they just say a couple of sentences to announce the next episode. Just cardboard cutout figures over a simple background.
>Who said anything about importance to the plot?
Then why care about who appears in the OP and who doesn't?
They are in the OP because fuck you that's why. They are literally there to make you angry.
Cuddles are included, could you please reconsider?
You're making it sound like prostitution now
She should have a loyalty program where she offers some fleece to her visitors.
Eventually the most loyal customers will have enough wool to make a sweater.
Wool sweaters are so itchy
Not him but it sounds like you just didn't like it, all of PPP were in character as far as I could tell
She F L U F F
I always did wonder how that B2 crashed.
Why were flying over the park what shot it down?
A pointless detail only included to confuse the viewers.
Maybe Japari Park was an old aircraft boneyard, the 2011 earthquake/Fukushima got mixed in, and sand star is actually just a Japanese version of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. artifacts.
what exactly is confusing about a plane crash
Why is there a crashed stealth bomber in a zoopark for example.
A crashed US nuclear strike force bomber B2 in some Japanese animal park isn't exactly "a" plane crash?
They were bombing ceruleans. What else could it be?
We don't know. S1 only gave vague hints about humans being gone from the island (it could have been declared a containment zone or whatever). In S2 I got the feeling that they're gone from not just the island, but who knows.
Ceruleans don't seem like THAT much of a threat if they can be punched out of existence, but again, who knows.
Bombing things AND losing your bombers (and war in general) isn't really fitting the KF setting though (at least the anime setting).
Also, losing a stealth bomber to ceruleans that can be disabled by water or killed in one punch?
But what the fuck kind of cerulean could take out a stealth bomber? And why don't we see any kind of major destruction a bomber could wreak? All the buildings are dilapidated, but none seem to have been blown apart and the land seems fairly intact as well.
>Japari park is just another Zone.
>The adventures of Kaban wondering the park drinking vodka and reclaiming mysterious artifacts to try and keep things running.
I suddenly want this.
It could have been a stealth surveillance drone.
>killed in one punch
Only by sandstar powered friends, no?
Given the cruise ship it isn't hard to imagine a fighter jet cerulean.
>And why don't we see any kind of major destruction a bomber could wreak
Probably because they were only aiming for the volcano.
no money changed hands though
>Only by sandstar powered friends, no?
That punch doesn't seem exactly comparable to a nuclear warhead or anything. Also, it shouldn't have been too hard to grab some sandstar and put it into the usual weapons in short order to kick slow incompetent Cerulean butt if Ceruleans had been a major threat.
I was always assuming the island was just contained because mankind wanted to observe Ceruleans and the resurrected animals. It would also have made sense that Japari buns and stuff are supplied from the outside, and that humans just stay away because of government orders, not that they're extinct or whatever.
>grab some sandstar and put it into the usual weapons
Now your combat rifle is a cerulean. I think regular humans are still very weak compared to friends/ceruleans.
>Japari buns and stuff are supplied from the outside
Don't they come from an automated garden or something?
Anyone knows where I can find the Doubutsu Shoukai from season 2?
Give chocolate.
why are their tiddies so big and their thighs so thick
Cursed doujin.
How did I not notice Rockhopper is perfection before?
I'd be fat too if I were a dumb friend with unlimited food access.
Is this finished already?
Worth to watch?
I liked S1 though I didn't consider it masterpiece like many anons around here, saw the negative reaction about the director drama and didn't touch S2 yet.
Last episode in 3 days.
Watch it because there's no reason NOT to watch it if you like KF.
Autists will tell you to ignore it because it'll apparently spoil the experience of the masterpiece of japanese animation that was S1 but it's mostly bullshit.
I liked S1 better by the way but not by much and mostly because of the novelty factor, which S2 doesn't have.
>Worth to watch?
You'll have to watch it to understand the threads here.
If you were already not enthused about S1, I'm not sure you'll like the considerably weaker S2.
S2 isn't bad, but at the same time it's not good either
it's fine really, just kinda worse than the first season but still fine
the pepapu episode sucking fucked though
Thanks anons, I'll give it a go once it's finished.
>If you were already not enthused about S1, I'm not sure you'll like the considerably weaker S2.
But on the other hand, if user don't have the season 1/franchise attachment then it might be an somewhat chill experience.
The biggest and loudest haters of S2 never bothered to watch a single episode of it. It's fun, give it a try. You say you're not a cultist so you will most likely enjoy it.
that's one cute borker
Wrong. The biggest and loudest hater is that japanese guy that makes those hateful MAD, but then realize nothing can grow from hatred so hedelete all his video and make Kemono Friends R series instead.
The maps in the guide books make no sense to me.
What's what in here?
The top right orangish map is where episode 1 happens, but where is it supposed to be on the "world" map? Is there even a world map?
I think that's just concept art
Why is that door like twice a person's height

I'm convinced Season 2 is meant to be watched at 2x speed.
dumb pancakeposter
Moose had a reason to be rough, she and her crew were fighting Lion and her crew to gain dominance of the shogun play palace.
fuck off pancake retard
There's no reason to ever be rough in KF according to some people, not even as a joke.
Wait, isn't that one of the detectives in S2?
Yeah it's the giant armadillo
the localized negative noosphere disruption of The Zone could easily create local hotspots of positive noosphere disruption in a sort of ripple effect
The framerate is fine in that scene. It's not too choppy and not too smooth.
Pic is when it's too choppy.
it's where they make glue
you're blind?
I disagree, I think someone dancing is definitely going to need a higher framerate. It's barely 2-3 frames before her legs have switched positions
I guess war wasn't for her
Every thread
To be honest only Rhino seemed excited for war.
It's just one idiot, ignore him. He's hated KF since 2017.
KF shitposting in a nutshell is just when some nerd comes back from school and out of nowhere starts shitposting about the same shit as every other day. And all of this same shitposting can be summed up with "it's okay when tatsuki does it".
Today it starts here
fuck off pancakeposter
Chameleon probably started liking it after she learned how to be an agent of infiltration and not TOTSUGEKI

Both are ultra-low budget 3DCG series.

It's just not fair.
user you dork
I hate it when people don't draw Fennec's ears correctly
Toki and her ibis cousins are some of the more attractive friends.
I got you.
It is fine to have an inferior story than S1. It sucks, but it's fine. It's a very subjective notion too and there's a lot to nitpick about in both seasons.
We will never know
Her ears are dumb!
I just wanna sniff her butt, bros
this shit right here is what happens when you drop the educational segments
You don't deserve the Fenneku.
Please save slave mangakas
But KF2 listed Toki as a mammal
fennec
Dolphins are mammals.
OK?
It merely means that Toki can get pregnant
Angry Fennec noises

It's total garbage. These threads only exist for shitposting, boredom, and regrets over what was lost. You're going to be lied to by the one autistic guy who shitposts the most so I encourage you to check the archive to learn the truth yourself.
as a dog owner I believe her
Given that they look both really stupid and really smug she might as well be one.
Looks pretty unhealthy. Imagine all the crap that gets suctioned into those.
They some sort of animu eye effect going on.
Yes this was nice. I would even watch KF about this group struggling with different customer Friends.
My fucking sides.
11/10
How could you?
I'll marry her
Panda STRONG.
Would you?
Would you watch the adventures of Loli Kaban and Oneesan Serval?
Moose is big
Honest question what was the point of having Serval forget Kaban?
It would be one thing if it had relevance to the plot but it was just kind of a oh this happened now we never bring it up again.
Lions are big too!
Honest answer? They probably "needed" to make room for a new protag with a new backstory or whatever
If Serval didn't forget about Kaban then she would be with Kaban instead of meeting with brap-chan.
Serval is a main character so they had to re-use her for S2.
>Kaban, Serval and Caracal find Kyururu
>Serval and Caracal decide to help Kyururu find and home while Kaban goes back to her important work
So simple and no need for Serval to lose her memories.
I've got a plushie otw from nipland rn
tsuchis are for cuddles not tossing away
How else would we be able to experience his dream?
Would it of been that hard to have it where they are still best friends but have Serval and Kaban do their own things?
I mean i feel like Serval would get bored of the lab and want to hang out with Carcal and her other friends as well.
I figure Kadokawa required Serval to be a protagonist with a lot of screen time.
But the new director probably thought it impossible to continue with Kaban in order to reduce the upset and deal with the series being his different creation, so this happened. I'd say it didn't work out. The encounter with Kaban and the owls was definitely quite crappy.
She's literally there to just say sugoi
But then the bittersweet encounter wouldn't have happened. It's one of the best things this anime did.
Just have Kaban stay at the lab and the first 5 episodes is them solving things while trying to get Kyururu to the lab.
Congrats now the first half of the season feels less aimless.
>only one
see
That doesn't make it good though, it's still shitting on everything that KF1 left with its ending to the point of being obnoxious
You mean one of the best things Season 2 did?
Because that's like being a beaten wife and saying "wow, today he didn't beat me".
You mean the amazing "huh", followed by "what" and "yea, maybe"?
A very lame reaction to that "the grand voyage continues" ending of S1.
I just wish they had done more with it.
It did get me to like Carcal atleast along with her helping the dog up.
Man I can't tell if Kaban or Doggy has gotten it worse this season, if only because at least Kaban still has friends.
based af
This is what happens if you let Mine run free, all you get is his bitter message
And it's supposed to be a fucking kids show
Why do cats like Bags so much?
oh my god user
i can't handle this
this reminded me of legend of mana for some reason. now i have to go download and play it. thx user.
Kaban behaves like she is where doggy will be in another 200 years of refusals and humans not returning followed by two kemono world wars.
What happened off screen must have been truly destructive.
>"the grand voyage continues" ending of S1.
That ending couldn't have gone anywhere.
The best they could have done is make Kaban and Serval come back to the island (because of mechanical issues, or something) and make a season of Kaban & Friends solving issues in Japari while still doing a bit of research about Sandstar, Friends and humanity.
>And it's supposed to be a fucking kids show
And yet S1 introduced several heavy atmosphere plot points about humanity possibly being extinct and a war with ceruleans.
Punished Kaban a girl who the very gods denied the good ending she rightfully earned.
What would kids remember more, Mirai talking about how ceruleans have the possibility of destroying humanity or dog being beaten up and bullied?
>kids
KF2 airs at 2am.
And then the whole dog situation is just a stupid exaggeration. It could have been handled better but this can be said about 90% of all episodes of all anime series.
Nothing like a kids show that airs at 2 am.
The kids show meme has always been the dumbest one.
She's a very good girl that's how.
I can't tell if it's just the shitty animation, or if Dog is really in pain and barely able to run in the end.
>That ending couldn't have gone anywhere.
Of course it could have gone somewhere. Yep, Sandstar, more Friends and the "where are the humans" mystery could have been explored or even solved.
Even if they had only done a tiny part of that and simply met new and old friends, that's exactly what S2 did anyhow. Revisiting PPP's stage also almost couldn't have been more contrived than it was, so... ya.
>That ending couldn't have gone anywhere.
How, exactly?
Lucky literally said in one of the episodes that the island they were heading to was just another region of Japari Park.
Might be a bit of both. You likely wouldn't be able to run properly after something like that also earlier in the episode the running animation was terrible at least for Kyururu and Dog anyways. I didn't seem to notice anything wrong with Serval's and Caracal's run animation though.
The show died before they could ever turn it into a kids show
No more friends finger puppets and kids segment in the morning
Pic related possibly even was in another region of the park, right?
Shake!
>Yep, Sandstar, more Friends and the "where are the humans" mystery could have been explored or even solved.
Yeah, that's how I was thinking about this too.
But then I realised that:
- Nobody would even care about themes such as humanity and conflict. It's all about Kemonos and Friends.
- Giving too much focus to lore and explanations is suicidal seeing how silly and messy the whole setting is.
- Leaving the main island is not desirable because it would mean leaving the old cast behind and resetting everything (new island, new rules, new characters, etc). Which just doesn't make sense and is unnecessary for a sequel. It could work as side series sure, but not as a direct sequel.
tl;dr: kemonos and friends, if it's not kemonos and friends then it won"t work out.
I was around for the good old days and when ep.12 ended the only thing people wanted was more adventures with new Friends and new locations.
MORE Friends, sure.
Not LESS Friends because they are leaving the main island.
the story isn't even set in Park Central, user
there are bigger islands and more friends outside the tiny corner of the park that S1 and S2 take place in
We would have probably gotten a handful of new friends each episode and I'm sure Tatsuki would have worked in S1 character cameos in a better way than S2 did. Also I'm almost certain Arai and Fennec were on the boat so having two more characters join the trip would change the dynamics quite a bit.
> Nobody would even care about themes such as humanity and conflict.
Like S1 did it is fine. The friends wouldn't be as good if you couldn't see a more cute reflection of humanity in them, including various flaws, apart from their animal traits.
Doesn't stop the friends from enjoying what we did:
youtube.com
> It's all about Kemonos and Friends.
That's fine, they could have continued with the other 8 million or so past and current animal species in other parts of the park.
> Giving too much focus to lore and explanations is suicidal seeing how silly and messy the whole setting is.
I don't even know if it is messy, heh. There's no need to carry over the full lore from the video games and such, and the anime's lore wasn't too terribly impossible.
> Leaving the main island is not desirable because it would mean leaving the old cast behind and resetting everything (new island, new rules, new characters, etc)
S2 did the same anyhow, they just forced in a bit more of the old friends back in.
Most of which were really underwhelming to revisit. PPP and so on.
そもそもかばん達がいた場所がキョウシュウチホーじゃない可能性もあるが、ボスの言葉をアテにするならかばん達のいた場所はキョウシュウチホーで、単に設定が変更されただけだと思われる。
I will never understand why most CGI anime is animated at 8fps like budget hand drawn stuff.
It makes no fucking sense.
Yeah but it's irrelevant in terms of S1 -> S2 transition.
Separate islands can have separate stories for side-material like OVAs, mangas, etc.
But there's just no reason to transfer Kaban and Serval to a brand new Island and forget about the previous cast. You can barely call it a sequel in this case. Plus, what other friends are they going to bring in that couldn't appear on first island? That island already has everything and has a setting for multiple climates even.
Beg you to play with her
but where's the mystery, user?
Bird friends really are the best.
>The friends wouldn't be as good if you couldn't see a more cute reflection of humanity in them, including various flaws, apart from their animal traits.
But people don't like this.
This is what "everyone" is hating about S2 apparently.
I want to inseminate this cutie and then cuddle each other to sleep!
>It makes no fucking sense.
Major western animation studios like Pixar doing movies were able to write their own software and run it all through srs computing power to render.
Pretty sure in Japan the budgets are fucked and they're often barely managing to ship their series because they reduced rendering and animation precision to what choppy 8fps can do. and textures to a very not detailed anime-style [some series of course are different].
Why is ep10 so good compared to the rest of the season?
I think it's more about having an anime feeling to it instead of soap opera 60 fps smoothness.
3DCG looks weird imo even at 24fps.
People are doing MMD videos at 60fps. Show By Rock had 24fps CGI.
I didn't see many animal OR human traits in S2. Doge is loyal and some Friends run shops / a hotel, that was about it.
Arguably, I would have preferred a S1 style bit of happiness where she finds a friend to live in her house and play, or something sweet like that. Most characters in S1 succeeded in doing something significant.
But it's not even the main problem, most friends apart from Doge simply did neither have many human nor many animal traits.
>Nobody would even care about themes such as humanity and conflict.
I would give a shit if it was done well. I can't think of a single theme that KF2 did well.
That's like saying Pokemon can't have multiple seasons because once you leave Kanto all the Kanto people aren't around anymore, therefore Ash has to stay there forever. It's completely inane.
It wasn't really, just better than average KF2 episode. My favorite is still episode 4, which is the closest S2 has gotten to S1.
>entire show is core trio going to new places and meeting new characters
>There's just no reason to have the core trio go to new places and meet new characters! That wouldn't be a sequel at all!
Japs pay their animators pittance so it's no surprise their 3D animation tech is miles behind the rest of the industry
I have absolutely no problems with 60fps animation in Anime style video games. Doesn't seem odd to me at all.
I imagine the MMD video producers mostly aren't putting out as many minutes of content (never mind a lot of backgrounds and so on) per season to allow their studios to survive on low ass budgets?
As I said, western animators also wouldn't generally do 24fps, nor would video games, but the nip animation industry is probably fucked in terms of money. Quite a few of them complained in the past about how extreme the requirements are... very few staff, very little budget, tons of work, shortcuts everywhere to make it work somehow.
>Pokemon
It's absolutely not the same thing.
KF has constraints on having only one type of Friend and Friends being locked to an island. That plus Friends are actually important characters with individuality unlike pokemons.
You leave the island, it's over, all your Toki and Fennec waifus are gone unless you explicitly make them come with you.
It's just an unnecessary hassle when the first island already has everything you need to spin up a story. From characters, to locations to potential mysteries.
KF2 not really taking advantage of that is a different issue.
MMD video producers are not studios. MMD video producers are one guy in his shitty apartment with a decent computer.
To be fair, Yaoyorozu is almost one guy in his shitty apartment with a decent computer, but it's still not the same.
>To be fair, Yaoyorozu is almost one guy in his shitty apartment with a decent computer, but it's still not the same.
They apparently moved to a bigger office.
>You leave the island, it's over, all your Toki and Fennec waifus are gone unless you explicitly make them come with you.
Well, yes. That's how travel shows work. You go somewhere, you meet the people, and you leave. Almost every friend in S1 got 20 minutes of screentime during their guest episode, 1 minute with Arai-san and Fennec in the next episode, and 30 seconds of highlight reel in the finale.
S1 friends not on the boat could simply not show up in S2. Or, they could not participate in the main story of S2 and receive three-minute "where are they now" highlight spots during their episodes. Or, during the finale of S2, they could put out a cliched but lovable "time of need" development where the S1 friends work together to accomplish a something that becomes relevant.
The owls apparently built an airship in the Nexon game, they could have done something similar in S2 to have the S1 Friends show up for the final battle or whatever big crisis happens in the last episode.
>unless you explicitly make them come with you.
Didn't you see the S1 ending? Multiple did come along!
Apart from that, S1 almost always had one or a few friends per episode. Yes, new animal friends. Nothing wrong with continuing that.
Lastly, there are enough methods by which friends could move between islands. If Tatsuki had wanted to bring Otter to the new island for some reason, Kaban could just ask one of the mighty migratory bird friends and one cut / "1.5h" later, she could have been there. Or maybe there's a bridge. No real problem, really.
>The owls apparently built an airship
VERY impressive.
S2 finale: All friends from S1 get para-dropped from an owl-built B-2 bomber to help Kaban fight the last boss.
Weird I can't picture them doing much competently, they seem like the type that thinks they are much wiser then they really are.
Seele Sound Only
Birdbrains, I tell you.
>The owls apparently built an airship in the Nexon game
They somehow modified a Japaribus with Sandstar to make it fly. Gray Fox says that she doesn't get what they're doing and it shouldn't work at all, but it does anyway.

Imagine having this for the ED of the last episode of a real S2.
>they seem like the type that thinks they are much wiser then they really are
Yes, that was a bit of a point in both seasons. OTOH the two of them clearly did manage to pick up on a lot of what humans did. I think they actually are also pretty clever.
It wasn't canon but they were shown to be able to read in the anisama short.
Just listening to this is depressing
>The owls are there to keep Kaban from getting depressed and hurting herself
>Kaban spends all day stoping them from accidentally hurting them selves in her lan
A match made in heaven
I wish Kemono Friends were real
why do they all wear skirts
I love the owls.
>これからもよろしくね
They are kashikoi for a reason
Animals are sluts
Well, they're nice characters (well, interesting in S1 anyhow) and they had a nice visual character design and good VA.

It's going to be an army of teapots
They have always known how to read the part with the cooking in season one wasnt that they didnt understand it was because they were afraid of fire
A different image, then.
Or maybe just all friends from all drawings until they destroy the drawings? Just to drive home that in S2, nobody can keep anything nice.
So you can't see their panties, baka!
Or in certain cases, the lack of.
Whatever it is, it's gonna be disappointing. Screenshit this
Cerulean Broly appears, real Broly shows up, Brap-chan uses the power of friendship to turn her into a Friend and she teams up with the others to beat the cruise-ship cerulean. Brap-chan realizes she was home the whole time. Serval still won't remember Kaban because fuck you. The end.
Regular beast is an insane monster so Cerulean Beast is nice and complete sane
Your optimism is nice, but I wonder if it really has a chance to be the by far best episode of S2.
>in the game the owls built an airship
>in KF2 all we got was the japaritractor™
The lack of budget is real.
Kaban spent it all in liquor
I can't stop thinking about Japari tractor, it's been in my mind since i watched the episode.
Sadly Kaben is considered a public hazard with anything faster.
Vote for the New Kaban to join the Yea Forums roster for the upcoming Spring Babby Cup. You can also vote for others you like as well as suggest your own. Suggestions made by you guys hold more weight than the already active voting options and with enough support, can make the team ahead of the choices already available.

It can't be helped, she's an old depressed woman.
Would Nu-Kaban rape male visitors if give the chance like the other friends?
You know, I wonder why they just didn't give Kaban a spare bus (there were a bunch on the island, her and the owls could have easily fixed one up) so she could give one to Brap-chan and co.
why do mods hate football so much ?
We even got an entire special with the owls salvaging old vehicles.
Bus is too small for everyone to fit in anyway.
Also, tractor's slowness is what allowed for Pronghorn to princess-carry Cheetah.
Doubt it
Arigato Takahashi-sama.
It did get an anime with cute Mamiko voice.
No one remembers it existed though.
Why is Kaban looking at Tomoe-chan like that? Kaban isn't planning anything right? Right?
She's just remembering a funny joke
Just relized all the nuKaban art I have has her with dull lifeless eyes.
was og kaban always this sexy?
yeah
Pretty much
Kaban will always be sexy.
Kaban was very lewd.
To be fair her progenitor Mirai was very lewd
Like mother like daughter
You have no idea
Ah crud. Is nu-Kaban's hair turning green because Mirai had green hair?
I always liked Kako being the progenitor of Kaban more than Mirai because they look similar.
They're not pantyhose though
yeah but Mirai is lewd in that she wants to mofu mofu friends
Kaban is lewd in that people want to mofu mofu her
arrested for japari crimes
Kako is cuter too, and she can always come back as the Cerulean Queen.
I wonder if we will get a S2 version of this?
Do you really want to be reminded of episode 6 and 9?
You take the good with the bad
fuck
the final ep was so hype in KF1
I am just gearing up for the MASSIVE disappointment that will be KF2 ending
She was too good for this show, same with the hotel trio.
The longest week.
>real anime
Not a 2 episode OVA short on a shoestring budget.
dumb d-dog
Pretty sure they are
I suck at typesetting but here is something I just did
I need to do this in something besides mspaint
Not gonna lie I like season 2 Kaban but its mostly because of the tragedy i guess why it's also why I like Dog so much
