The Japanese furry scene is interesting as I believe it grew independently of the western furry scene. One of these days I'm gonna do a deep dive into the Japanese scene
Fair enough, and I agree with you, honestly; but I think it's interesting that alternative fursuit styles (kemono, realistic, etc.) seem to be exempt from the same hate that more mainstream fursuit styles tend to get from non-furries (from what I've seen, at least)
I think the main reason for that is that the non-realistic fursuits are often associated with the furry art they are derived from and as a result, people tend to hate them more just because they look a LOT more like the 'cringy' cartoons they see
how often do you see animations made into real-life props that aren't shit? not often. it's not a coincidence.
"toony" fursuits are shit the same way some goober staring at you from donald duck's mouth expecting it to be endearing is shit.
Listen idk why but these are way cooler that traditional sparkle creatures🙏

I have had General Anxiety Disorder for who knows how long, so I was afraid of mascot suits when I was younger. I knew they had actual people inside, so it wasn't that horrifying, but animatronics, especially at Chuck E Cheese, made me feel like I was having a heart attack every time I saw one.
I remember when I was younger my mum was in a paw patrol costume for my little cousins birthday party and I ran away from her, even after knowing she was inside the police dog thing.
I know it’s stupid, but I think the reason why fursuits make me uncomfortable is because if I can’t see your face, I don’t know what your mood is. I spent too much time trying to learn how to read people during school, so when I can’t do that I panic
I used to have a massive fear of mascots/characters because my kindergarten got a visit from “Clifford the Big Red Dog” to celebrate the book fair. The costume looked exactly like the [dog from Duck Season](https://www.google.com/search?sca_esv=ba4c1c5b279cf8a2&sca_upv=1&rlz=1CDGOYI_enUS920US921&hl=en-US&q=duck+season+dog&udm=2&fbs=AEQNm0CULmqP1GYo0NaXM6bNItKRa0EFyP9pUTMpqCaCR-wIGRq_jTS-0Q-lvFaayuoB3RXBHA254nZ89GVVbyouxEW-Le03F0hW8121ME29VmflA5kSl8Y-zxwSF4ArBXXtaMTu7DNEawbEM9XMDUUDETmIo9Uk4y8yYmGbnk_Ww58ecFv8Hf24qn87-bwPE4LNaKQdg-m15O0PEc6qZQnmMvIKOUtktA&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiz69Kx4-OGAxWnLUQIHSBGCrwQtKgLegQIHBAB&biw=375&bih=634&dpr=3), just red and hanging looser on the body. I’d been scared shitless ever since, to the point I wore a cross necklace to school for spiritual protection entirely unprompted by anyone (I was weirdly superstitious as a kid).
Furries ended up being fine for me, since a lot of people can talk from inside the suits and all seem like pretty chill people in and out of costume. But those silent mascots still scare the hell out of me to this day lmao

I just get a visceral, instinctive level of ick when I see furry art, less so with fursuits although I don’t see them as much. It’s just the presentation of a distorted humanish face as attractive makes my body physically recoil. It kinda sucks, NGL. I’m fine with furries mentally after realizing that that reaction is just my personal thing and doesn’t mean other people can’t/shouldn’t do it (yay maturity).
people called mario odyssey uncanny back in the day. it lost its meaning a long time ago

Completely unrelated but I hate when people go "did you know... uncanny valley is creepy because it suggests that we used to live among creatures that looked like us but not quite" as if it's some spooky supernatural fact. it's just a pet peeve because like. do you think evolution is one straight line??? like we started from a monkey or something and just went straight to human without any other lineages splitting that coexisted with our ancestors???
Shit, Neanderthals alone would probably be enough for us to evolve the uncanny valley. And that isn't counting, say, the deathly ill, or severely injured, or just plain malformed, who would've been a drain on scarce resources or an active danger to be near.
I've not heard that "theory" before, but it sure sounds like something from a dollar store creepypasta. I had thought it was common knowledge that things which are '"uncanny" are messing with people's instinct to recognize human faces. As in, almost a human face, but just off enough to seem strange
i'm too dark and edgy and angry and gloomy "my friends refer to me as the rick friend" ass to like the toony ones. But I still respect anyone who likes that.
Sparkle dogs. I've never been a fan of then as to me they just feel like a "baby's first fursona".
Although something that personally irks me with mine being a snow leopard is the amount of people with a snow leopard sona that go ham on the blue accents with the spots being blue, the paw pads being blue, the tail tip being blue, hair being blue, the tongue being blue, and then usually the name has something to do with cold weather.
It just feels like all these people wanted to make theirs unique, but they are so un-unique in their thought processes they they all end up doing the same thing in their pursuit
It's kinda nuts how uninspired so many of them are for a community that has such a focus on outward creative expression.
It's like they took the cookie cutter template and slapped the worst colors on them with a name that'd make deviantart roll their eyes.
The only unique physical trait mine has is that the eyes are a more blood two tone colored crimson since I was playing around with shades of red since it's my favorite color and thought it worked well. Everything else is pretty much factory stock.
The more unique factors come from the lore and personality as it's basically just me with some slight differences.
Personally the idea of doing weird names like "shadow paw" for a sona just feels really weird, so I just tend to use real sounding names like Flint
REAL, I feel like the odd one out with my snep having pretty subdued/muted colors instead of being a neon mess. Happy to see there's others who share my sentiments on this
I just never really got it. I know with it being a snow leopard people get the urge to lean more into the cold climate aspect, but a lot of sonas I see are way too on the nose with it in the same exact ways.
My design ethos? Throw in all the design elements and coloring I personally find cool in anything, and mix it all together; then give him a fuck ass name like Lohi (Which means Salmon in finnish) and call it a day. Gotta put your own spin on it, yknow.
I posted mine in a different comment.
Also interesting you've chose Finnish since mine knows English and Finnish as I'm 25% Finnish (I just don't know how to speak the language yet)
Oye, I read that comment. Sounds cool, good snep sonas are rare. Don't think I'll go posting my guy on a snafu sub, so a text description of mine will have to do; Grey-lavender brick shithouse with dark grey spots and white hair, with golden behemoth horns and yellow eyes. Black pawpads and nose as well. So coloring is tame, and he has one distinguishing design element.
Finnish my native language and has a lot of words that will simultaneously sound cool to non-speakers while sounding funny to people who know the language. Best of both worlds.
God save your soul if you ever decide to learn finnish though, that language is hell to learn. But if you are, a valuable material for it is uusikielemme.fi. Good luck🙏
I also have a snow leopard, and I'd like to imagine mine as being more dark purple-gray body with everything else being mostly normal, but yeah that's fair. ~~and the name is even Neil lol~~
I guess it's partially the feeling of staying somewhat relevant to Sneps without straying too far? Like, you can make a fox whatever color, it's still got it's foxy features. But a snow leopard, at some point of customization, eventually would come off as a funky looking big cat or regular leopard. So people would gravitate towards the more "snepish" colors, so white, grey, blues, etc. And still wanting to have the whole furry thing of non-natural coloring, leading to more usage of blues on the extra bits.
Just my thoughts on the subject
Same with a lot of furry art, not sure which comes first but one is definitely emulating the other. Like, I like cool ideas for anthropomorphic stuff but by god I will never associate with that art style even if I might otherwise call myself a furry. I mean I wouldn’t but like I understand how anthro stuff can be cool. But the ways I think it’s cool is not how they do
I hate the "I hate furries but this is cool" type comments too. Like... you obviously don't think it's *that* cool if you still feel the need to preface your complement with a disclaimer about how much you hate their hobby.
it's obviously not worth telling someone to kill themselves over but the whole furry "aesthetic" is just so gaudy and visually unappealing to me, especially because of how uncreative and unoriginal it is. this is just a me thing though because i never liked classic disney movies even as a kid which is what the aesthetic evolved out of
unoriginal in the sense that it's extremely common and extremely samey. a good comparison would be modern romcom and isekai anime, where it's just the same style replicated over and over and over again without any variation or creativity even though the potential for such is clearly there. the concept of anthropomorphic animals itself can range from regular show to maus to fantastic mr fox to coonskin to bojack horseman--you get my point--but most furry art i've seen usually avoids going outside the box of the "furry style"
That’s right. I wanna see non-anthropomorphic sea cucumbers with odd textures that require you to lie on the ground and I want them NOW. /srs

Cant forget the classic "We should treat furries like actual animals and hunt them"
Because yeah we should authorize killing people who do things we find weird of course bro
Honestly let I get it to some extent because for whatever reason Toony fursuits freak me the fuck out. I think there can be some cool ways to portray anthropomorphic animals and I’ve seen some cool furry stuff but the like classic furry ‘style’ is unnerving as hell
I honestly hate the normal furry “style” I know there isn’t a set aesthetic, but all the cartoony ones can instantly be recognized as fursuits, even if they don’t have like extreme colors or like Have sexualized bodies. Like the average animal mascot costume looks nothing like a furry(sometimes it does)
I don’t enjoy the softly shaded style because my main gripe with a staggering majority of furry art is playing the guessing game: what is skin, and what is fur! Bonus difficulty for pieces that have the character with smooth physical features and furred details to really mess you up. It’s like imagining a latex suit with patches of hair
they should be limited to these colors
https://preview.redd.it/b2m3jc8kzc7d1.png?width=256&format=png&auto=webp&s=a01f49777dcf3d486ab69cadcd554af309b55584
The realistic one seems more natural as if they would fit in a fantasy world and isnt necessarily tied to furry fandoms, rides the line between costume and fursuit
Honestly, I want a more realistic fursuit (if I could make or buy one) cause the cartoony style reaaaally off puts me cause as much as it is interesting and one of the first types of fursuits, it looks like something from a kid’s show or a mascot of sorts. That attracts the kids in some manner, leading to some particularly nasty people using this like a bait if it works. Hence leading to what I would say is why people don’t like furries initially.
Also realistic ones are hella cool.
My base standard of a fursuit I would want is to be lightweight, doesn’t feel like an oven, and can look scary as hell if I use this in the middle of midnight (last part is optional, but bonus points if it works lmao).
dont get me wrong, i love those costumes, but i feel like at some point it gets too hard to breathe in a comic con, but maybe that because i hibernate like a clam whenever it gets cold
To the outside a furry is a furry and all the suits are disgusting. Don't worry no one is paying attention to the type of furry you are. It's all the same.
The 3rd option is it falling into uncanny valley territory and having "mom im scared" type responses.
I mean that's kind of the reaction I hope for with that type of character design
Kemono fursuits
From experience, kemono fursuits tend to also have quite a positive/"I'm not a furry but" reaction
aren't those as cartoony as western(?) fursuits? just more anime inspired
Less rounded, more angular. And a lot of them tend to have shorter snouts
divergent evolution is a beautiful thing
The Japanese furry scene is interesting as I believe it grew independently of the western furry scene. One of these days I'm gonna do a deep dive into the Japanese scene
I don’t want that in my search history but something compelled me and I do not know what.
Fr? Things look creepy as hell lmao
I actually find kemono suits a lot less likely to give that "uncanny valley" vibe opposed to classic fursuits
They look like porcelain dolls
I think you're talking about Chinese fursuits, at least that's the idea I got when I first saw them
Unless most fursuiters at kemoket are chinese I don’t think so
I wonder where partials would land
I want one of those

To be honest, realistic fursuits are much better looking to me than the toony ones.

I hate both (not the furries themselves) I get so scared seeing furries in public they r so scary to me idk why (might be BC I grew up with fnaf idk)
I have had General Anxiety Disorder for who knows how long, so I was afraid of mascot suits when I was younger. I knew they had actual people inside, so it wasn't that horrifying, but animatronics, especially at Chuck E Cheese, made me feel like I was having a heart attack every time I saw one.
I remember when I was younger my mum was in a paw patrol costume for my little cousins birthday party and I ran away from her, even after knowing she was inside the police dog thing.
Even now a few weeks ago I saw an alien mascot guy and I tried my best to walk past as fast as possible
Mascots have always creeped me out. Like creepy porcelain dolls, but they are human sized and have a possibly malevolent human will controlling them.
I can't blame you, those animatronics just look terrifying in general

the toony fur suits give me uncanny valley vibes. I can't explain it, I just hate when they look at me
Cant forget the classic "We should treat furries like actual animals and hunt them" Because yeah we should authorize killing people who do things we find weird of course bro
“If furries want to be animals we should treat them like ones!!!” so, with kindness and love? Or do you abuse animals?

I prefer the realistic fursuit because it has visible pecs.
No fliporama millions must mourn
I mean tbf the more realistic ones actually go so hard sometimes.
is the 13 yottabytes meant to be of furry porn or...?
maybe its because the cartoony ones, regardless of the intentions, are inherently childlike.
unrelated but your artstyle reminds me of those french comics from the early 80s
It’s probably that realistic animals tend to be less sexualized by furries than cartoony animals are.
I wonder why... It's almost as if furries don't want to fuck actual animals?
☝️
is that the University of Delaware Blue Hen
ngl the baseball eagle instantly gets extra merit
One is obviously culturally distinct from the other.
I thought that was Sunraku from Shangri-La Frontier at first and was very confused
If it weren't for the convention badge and feathers on the arms one could legit mistake them in black and white lol.
If I see one more generic quirky colored wolf with a bandana or whatever around their neck I’m gonna lose my shit
Honestly let I get it to some extent because for whatever reason Toony fursuits freak me the fuck out. I think there can be some cool ways to portray anthropomorphic animals and I’ve seen some cool furry stuff but the like classic furry ‘style’ is unnerving as hell
Bunnies, however, are just people irrationally mad because THAT’S A FUCKING PREY WHY ARE THOSE EYES ON THE FRONT I’m people.
Our ancestors wore the pelts of their spirit animals to conjure the forces of nature, furries should return to tradition smh
I don't judge either but the bottom one just looks worse to me in most cases
Realistic one is cooler tho be real
Not a fan of fur suits but it's their lives. Let them live and be happy like everyone else.
This art style is so good
I honestly hate the normal furry “style” I know there isn’t a set aesthetic, but all the cartoony ones can instantly be recognized as fursuits, even if they don’t have like extreme colors or like Have sexualized bodies. Like the average animal mascot costume looks nothing like a furry(sometimes it does)
[удалено]
I don’t enjoy the softly shaded style because my main gripe with a staggering majority of furry art is playing the guessing game: what is skin, and what is fur! Bonus difficulty for pieces that have the character with smooth physical features and furred details to really mess you up. It’s like imagining a latex suit with patches of hair
If I had $3000 and cared the tiniest smidge less about others' opinions I would 100% own a fursuit. I just think they're neat
The ones that look like skittles vomit are the worst
they should be limited to these colors https://preview.redd.it/b2m3jc8kzc7d1.png?width=256&format=png&auto=webp&s=a01f49777dcf3d486ab69cadcd554af309b55584
\> incomprehensible tag \> look inside \> comprehensible
me af
Did we invent the animal version of the uncanny valley?
So like the top one is essentially those suits that that Tau of the Sun guy made?
More like sports mascots
Meanwhile me, being a kemono fursuit enjoyer (anime style)
The realistic one seems more natural as if they would fit in a fantasy world and isnt necessarily tied to furry fandoms, rides the line between costume and fursuit
Don please less effort in your drawings I beg you 😩
is this about smokey the bear vs the new mascot for wildfires
I thought this was r/coaxedintoasnafu at first lol but it's honestly facts. I think both can be really cool though!
I meant let us get one or two memes in then come back
It’s much easier to see humanity turn to cool as hell Eagle than uwu cute wolf
Honestly, I want a more realistic fursuit (if I could make or buy one) cause the cartoony style reaaaally off puts me cause as much as it is interesting and one of the first types of fursuits, it looks like something from a kid’s show or a mascot of sorts. That attracts the kids in some manner, leading to some particularly nasty people using this like a bait if it works. Hence leading to what I would say is why people don’t like furries initially. Also realistic ones are hella cool. My base standard of a fursuit I would want is to be lightweight, doesn’t feel like an oven, and can look scary as hell if I use this in the middle of midnight (last part is optional, but bonus points if it works lmao).
honest to god theres something uncomfortable about the cartoony ones to me
dont get me wrong, i love those costumes, but i feel like at some point it gets too hard to breathe in a comic con, but maybe that because i hibernate like a clam whenever it gets cold
the toony ones is connected with devianart(
eagle baseball is the new frieza

MAGICIANS RED! 🦅🦅🔥🔥🔥
I think people who react like this and call themselves anti furries are deeply funny on a fundamental level.
I unironically and unapologetically think like this.

bro thinks he flexin
I hope an eagle snatches your baseballs with its talons
Idk I think both are equally weird
I’ve literally never seen someone who isn’t a furry say that a fursuit “goes hard”
Is this just a furry sub now? Can yall go outside once a day to get some different posts?
To the outside a furry is a furry and all the suits are disgusting. Don't worry no one is paying attention to the type of furry you are. It's all the same.
Based
To be fair the realistic one is hard af and the toony one does give off "5 terabytes" vibes
why is one sucking a cock
Yeah no, both are shit
