Has kemono really become popular or is it just a temporary anomaly?
always has been, newfag
>>273279227okay then explain the kemono gap that persisted from after Tezuka to the early 10's
>>273278320People have wester furshit.Not japanese kemono.
>>273279371>have*hate
It's popular enough to make its way into gacha games.I love my wife Mizo btw
>>273278320Love for Kemono alway has been a thing, but as a trait/fetish itself, it has been gaining more tractions recently. Site like DLsite has gotten it a tag in the last 5-10 years recently. Even if it was mostly flooded by monster girl

It's a new thing. The word kemono (in its modern rendering and context) is a neologism that first appeared in the late 1990s and early 2000s. It's slightly newer than the word furry is, even though they express the exact same subculture and fandom at a (relatively) similar period of time. There are old animations, for instance from 1960s, that depict animal-people, but the word kemono in the modern context simply did not exist, and was not used. The modern usage of words like kemono or furry was codified by fandom culture about 25 years ago, especially as you can see with the rise of the internet. I feel it is inaccurate to call material produced in the 20th century as furry or kemono, since they pre-date that kind of terminology, and what we're doing is retroactively applying these labels on to old things. Even in the 2000s, furry and kemono was a niche fandom thing, and therefore was not understood or noticed by most people or companies. It's only been about 10 or 15 years since people really noticed it.
I hate gatcha and isekai. I hate anything made by a corporate think tank.

>want to browse more Kemono art/porn>Every imageboard/site I use doesn't have a "Kemono" tag >They just shuffle kemono women into the "furry umbrella">Have to browse through untold fetish art of westoid deer futa having sex just to find what I wantSomeone please give me recommendations, artists or sites, I beg of you
>>273283130>>273281612That's retarded. It's like saying that oxygen didn't exist until we made a word for it. And that "it's just applying a label to old things" like air.
>>273279371>delusional kemonofags claiming they're not furries.
>>273283145>use pixiv.>Tag: ケモノ、メスケモin case of booruand either>m/f>straight>heteroand for increased chance of non-western stuff>Japanese_textthis depends on site. generally speaking, find the the furry tag the site use, specifically furry female, or mesukemo, and find the any straight image you can see. Chance are, there will be tags similar to the stuff above, and use it in conjunction to the said furry tag.Otherwise, find the tag you dislike and black list it in the search. or Add Safe or Sfw to the search if looking for sfw stuff.
>>273278320Furry seems to get more popular every decade. Idk why maybe it coincides with behavioral sink and the ever increasing amount of mental illness.
>>273279285You mean the same gap that had Sherlock Hound, The Cat Returns, the Galactic Railroad movie adaptation and other similar things
>>273279371Calling it Kemono doesn't make you not a furry. As much as calling NTR doesn't make you not a cuckhold
>>273284932nah
>>273284522I'm pretty sure it's because of the increased need for IT workers that the shadow government keeps promoting furry culture
>>273283234I think what anon mean is that while footwear always exist, or at very least exist long ago, that doesn't necessary means it's shoe as we know it. While people did ended up making something resembling shoe or share similar purpose to it, like sandals, it's wasn't designed to function like a conventional shoe we have to day, thus can't really be treated or categorized as shoe we have todays.

>>273278320Kemono is eternal
>>273284932The style is different, so kemonos are usually cuter than weirdly uncanny vally western ones. but yes furry is furry.
She means (you)
Good morning, I love anthro women (japan)!
>>273285461I think you are trying to be pedantic because OP is wrong.I would love to hear your definition of kemono that includes both kemonos from 2010 onwards AND Tezuka's depictions of kemonos that excludes all the ones mentioned in this thread.
Pokémon is a multi-billion dollar franchise and has been for years
Does the fact that there are unironic furry fans on /a/ bother you guys, or is it a sign of change?
>>273286681There are furry threads all over the site, the days when moot banned all furries on sight is long gone, I think all the mods are furries.
>>273286681i think its strange that we have got to the point where people are pretending they are furries even when they are not. izutsumi is a kemonomimi...
>>273283145i browse 3hentai dot nettheres not much western content in there, and you can always blacklist gay shit
The teenagers who loved kemonomimi girls grew up and evolved their tastes, simple as.The touch fluffy tail -> touch fluffy girl pipeline is not to be underestimated
this bishounen son of a bitch is getting his SOUL SUCKED every day by a super hot fox chick and basically you are fucking stupidHow? ..Just read this free manga
>>273286681Explain why it should bother anyone at all. I think needless culture wars for the sake of it are cringe.
>>273282904Hello Kitty and Yogi Bear are a different beast from what would properly be called furry or Kemono. Those designs are cartoony, mascots, with the human elements downplayed. Furry and Kemono are more Realistic, more Sexual, and with the human elements more emphasized. Just because they are both "animal people" doesn't mean they fall into the same camp.
Confess your furry sins!
>>273286681I don't get people who still see it as some kind of thing to rage against. It was always kind of a meme just because it's sort of a nexus point for a lot more degenerate fetishes. It'll always be cringy as fuck in public, but hardly anything special in this autist containment zone.

>>273287715The last time I jacked it to porn of human women was like 2 years ago...
>>273286243you know what, thinking again, what I and OP thought might be different after all, but the the question is too interesting to not try and answer.Personally, Kemono to furry is what Anime is to cartoon.They the former technically fall under the definition of the latter, but yet, distinctive and specialized enough to gain it's own label.In case of anime, it's mainly animation created in Japan, but with expected convention from most anime, such as it's cliche and humor style, strong emphasis on appealing details of the eyes. This is not alway the case, as there are alot of overlaps in Anime and Cartoon, and many anime feels closer to west's cartoon than most anime. However, most of the time, the Anime have something that make it feel Japanese, something that can't be felt in western show, even in case of something like Avatar or castlevania, despite many of the of the aspect it borrows from anime.Now to focus on your question, Kemono is furry character made by the Japanese, or made to resemble what most Japanese artist draw, where the character design is more anime-like, having more realistic anatomy, often emphasizing the animalistic traits to human one and cuter eye compared to most furry, which are either more cartoony or just simply a more hairly human body with animal head. Furthermore, to contrast with kemonomimi, which is somewhere between human cosplaying animal girls to monster girl, kemono is closer to animal taking on human traits. Conventionally, Kemono is usually a separate character from the creator, rather than avatar representing them like the more frequent case in the furry culture. However, that line may have became more blurry recently, even then, most of the case I came across, the character are either a mouth piece for their thought or a different character they are roleplaying as, rather than a representation of themselve or what they want to be as a whole.(cont)

i don't care about terminology i just want to fuck animals
I don't care about furryshit but it's crazy to say something is or isn't popular when you don't speak moon. You only have access to what's translated. There's no way for you too know what's popular
>>273288133By that you mean "animals" that are humanoid and sapient... right?
>>273288084They could at least show themselves and keep me company as thanks...

>>273282904I blame pokémon for the furry epidemic, imagine the south park episode where the kids become weebs but instead of hating America they want to fuck cartoon animals>t. Lopunny made me feel funny when I saw her on cartoon network
>>273288459extra crotch and armpittufts are still a nice touch. What she's really missing though is extra neck/chest fluff for the pupose of burying your face in and taking deep breaths of her fragrance
>>273288527
>>273288527Hey, I just posted that on /vp/ a few hours ago
>>273286243>>273287892As for differences between modern days stuff and Tezuka-like stuff in general, then it would be that the latter is closer to the western furry before kemono developed in own convention. Generally, their stuff is essentially a Japanese takes on western funny animal, drawing some inspiration from disney. The character have less emphasis on realistic traits, instead, emphasizing on the symbolism and stereotype of the animal(bunny = cute and friendly, fox = sinister and evil), barring few exception of a more realistic take such as Bagi or Ode to Kirihito, which can be barely be considered a furry, but rather a sci-fi-like horror story about a man turning into a dog. It's just that it was quite horrific and unpleasant in itself that it doesn't feel like furry.That said, personally, I considered Tezuka to be kemono, but it does feel very different from the modern day kemono stuff. You are not gonna say that today's isekai and 80/90's isekai feel the same, do you, even with all it's overlaps?Basically, the older one is more closer to western furry with fewer fetish stuff and more straight, being a Japanese take own western furry or funny animal, while the modern one is essentially anime community with focus on animal traits as a fetish point, with more realistic anatomy being simplified.Granted, there's nothing preventing either west or east authors from following their own country conventions, and there are quite alot of overlaps, Kemono is basically a specialized subset of furry anyway, but you can feel the japanese and anime influence in it. At this point, I am not sure what the original point was, if the OP and you are either right or wrong. There is more I should say, but I am too tired for now.>>273288376fuck you, I didn't spend half an hour typing this just to be accused of using AI to write this.
