>>23
Can't say I blame them...

>>24
For what? Taking advantage of the craze?

>>25
The Penguin in that zoo became very attached to that cutout and was spending all it's time around the thing. It was even choosing to be around it rather than eating.

praise be

There is no greater bride for our fair goddess than the pure maiden of the Savannah herself.
Long may they reign together and possibly even show the world what it truly means to love.

I have some bad news about S2
https://twitter.com/irodori7/status/912270635610472448

>>173
I don't understand?

>>174
Google translate makes it appear to be something like 'There will be no more Kemono Friends. Really sorry'.

>>175
They kicked tatsuki off the team so kemono friends will just become the nect kancolle with suits ruining it

>Kemono Friends director TATSUKI reported on Monday that he is no longer on the Kemono Friends anime project. He said that it was apparently on notification from publishing and production company Kadokawa, and he apologized to fans for the sudden news that he himself also found very disappointing.

>>176
Something like this happened to KanColle? I'd do some research, but I'm so lazy.

>>178
No it didn't but kancolle doesn't have the soul and characters of kemono friends and is just a cashgrab and the suits are trying to make kemono friends into just another cash grab by taking away what made it special

>>179
>>178
>>176
The Kancolle anime was a pile of the stinkiest of stinky turds.

>>177
Boycott when?

>>179
This.
kancolle was absolutely a souless cash crab. It's anime was lazy half assed garbage that they knew was going to sell big matter what they did so they put in the least amount of effort possible. Kemono Friends on the other hand was hopeless project advertising a dead game. The creators probably didn't expect anyone to even watch it but they did the best they could with it and turned a turd into gold with nothing but pure determination and willpower while making the best of a bad situation.
I can't stress how insulting and outright disgusting it is to kick the original creators off the team. The suits clearly don't understand that Kemono Friends is largely an underdog story, it's not just about cute animal girls. Shooting that dog at the finish line and replacing it with some prize winning purebred is an outrage. Fans shouldn't be disappointed, they should be angry.

I guess today is the day Kemono Friends died, huh?

>>180
Accurate to the source material.

/kf/ is still here! Thanks, Tohno!

H-... Hashibiroko-san...♥

The happy birthday Arai-san deserves!

I've had this in my wallpaper rotation. Always elicits a moment of reflection.

>>594
That's a nice one.

>>595
Here's another one I have that I also like. Kaban and Serval side-by-side, looking off into the sunset – it evokes and rekindles everything I love about kemono friends, from their close bond to that tinge of mono no aware found in each episode and in the ED.

(Sidenote: I wish there were more anime-themed wallpapers that have good composition – i.e. aren't just a picture of an anime girl blatantly imposed on some solid color)

>>596
Agreed. It's oddly hard to find more scenic style anime art.

>>593
That's a very cute King Ghidorah. Reminds me of Doublas M2 from Robot Girls Z.

>>596
That's everything I loved from the series too, I don't think the bonds between Kaban and Serval have been and could ever be replicated. It's a beautiful thing and I really miss them. Shame things have to end this way.

Have anyone read Quick Waipa's manga? Apparently it's supposed to be the continuation of S1.

>>598
I've read it and I loved it. It's so good, and unfortunately it's also the closest we will get to a SS1 part 2.

I hope this board gets revived, although I guess it was never really alive from the start

Forgot to attach the image

>>615
Do you have a link to these? I've found papercraft for Ika Musume, Madoka, and I remember seeing the image you posted before but I wasn't able to find the source with printable graphic.

>>616
Ah got it: https://muumin-craft.wixsite.com/papercraft/fennec
I think I also had one of Hakase saved somewhere, let me try to find that

>>614
It was made with the hope that KF would turn into the next touhou, back before it was murdered. It does seem like there's still a small about of people out there that still have love for the franchise and still make content related to it in spite of everything. Maybe that'll grow with time as people move past the controversy?

>>617
Here's the collection of KF papercraft: includes Bossu, Serval, Owls, and Fennec. https://files.catbox.moe/jn4pyu.zip

It's been some 5 years since then, so... I don't really think the amount of fans will increase that much, or who knows, maybe some gacha shit with a license will do the trick.

>>621
There's a lot of western media that failed on release but developed a cult following over time, which then got enough attention to result in new entries in the series. Who knows, could happen here too.

>>621
https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2022-06-06/kemono-friends-3-game-releases-on-ps5-ps4/.186384

The game just got a PS5 release, I guess? So there's clearly enough users to justify that still. Either way, the franchise is not likely to be resurrected.

>>623
Isn't KF3 a gacha game? (Although the original nexon game may also have been too.) It's basically as good as dead though when they're milking it for money rather than trying to continue an artistic vision.

>>624
It was always a mixed media project; any artistic vision that might have accidentally appeared was incidental to the goal of making money through gacha.

Fox bros?

>>626
Gin-gitsune's dance in the KF/udon collaboration ad is extremely cute

>>626
fox bros...

PKM fennec

>>631
Seems like it'd be arai-san with the gun

>>632
Yes, but she couldn't figure out how to use it so Fennec is filling in for her

There's not enough Gambian Rat art out there

She's going to die from heat stroke

Friend to be worshipped today: Arai-san

Here's Ezo Red Fox, the first Kemono Friend I knew way before I watched the show. She's my waifu for life

>>651
Her friendship with silver fox is really cute!

The thread has been so slow that we ought to make up for it with two tributes!

Does Lucky count as a Friend?

>>654
I don't think so. Lucky is basically a robot built to act as a tour guide and assistant in the park. It's not affiliated with any actual animals.

>>655
Maybe it's possible he contains a tiny bit of sandstar though, enough to give him intelligence?

Nanoda!

Nanoda love!

>>657

I woke up in an idol mood this morning.

>>664
I wonder why artists post more penguins in the summer... It must be pretty hot in Japan.

Alpaca!

What about the sacrifice of director Tatsuki, who was robbed?

>>670
>the sacrifice of director Tatsuki
This is not a Kemurikusa thread.

>>671
kemurikusa was really underrated as a show, I feel like not even many KF fans watched it.

Happy Halloween!

Sugoi!

Been listening to ED on loop a lot lately because I feel sad. Their friendship, it's too precious. The confession of unconditional friendship, so direct and heartwarming.

Happy New Year!
