Translation of the Animate interview
http://www.animatetimes.com/news/details.php?id=1488452395
Continuing from >>155134713 and >>155101264
> When did the trending sign appear? A look back from the anime getting green-lit to live broadcast
Reporter: Looking back at the time when anime was first announced till the point of actual airing. Anything really left an impression on you?
Kadokawa: The anime was announced on March-april of 2016 and that's when the game switched to a totally free to play model, which is when the visual project got announced.
Reporter: Thinking back to the broadcast date of January 2017, that notice was rather early.
Kadokawa: The actual announcement of TV anime came on July 2016. We held the "KemoFure Shop" and "Collab Cafe" at Akihabara to encourage the fans. That's when the official merchandises were first sold.
>>155134962
Reporter: How did the KemoFure get received?
Kadokawa: Dedicated fans came far and wide to frequent the shop, and we are very grateful for that. The Kemono Friend community is very kind and warm. It is thanks to their nonstop support that we have been able to continue until this point. We've been told of "stupid admin" "we can't help it because there's Serval though". (laughs)
Reporter: Were the people kind to everyone because the subject's about animals?
Kadokawa: And when we resumed the KemoFure shop two months later for the Penguin's debut, leaking info bit by bit. It felt as if that I was really stingy with the new info, but there's so few people involved, and besides, this isn't my main line of work.
Reporter: Of course not. The Editor in chief couldn't be so unoccupied at that (laughs)
Kadokawa: But I do love "Kemono Friends" personally. So I'd like to see it continue, if only just through doing things little by little. We wanted to show that we are continuing the project through showing new characters. In November 2016 we released the anime preview video, and by end of November we announced the cast. Criticism of how the "game cast and anime cast are different" came up at the time, but as we've said before, we have our reasons for that, we we had to soldier up quietly as such.
>>155135376
Reporter: You were prepping for the anime airing at the time, so it must have been hard, trying to trickle information down bit by bit. What was the public response at the time?
Kadokawa: Still, the number of Twitters that we got were just at 5000 to 6000. There weren't much growth from the time when the game's live. Not only that, we started to get the dismissive comments such as that "this weird work's coming out when the game's already closed shop", and we were getting noticed negatively.
Yaoyorozu: Normally you'd think that you are broadcasting the anime in order to promote for the game, which is a misconception that we woudln't be able to clear no matter how hard we try to explain. Moreover, the anime's advanced viewing as December 14th, which was just when the game service had ended. We didn't plan this out. It's sheer coincidence.
Kadokawa: Yep! Although people really tried to spin it that way even if were sheer coincidence.

> Criticism of how the "game cast and anime cast are different" came up at the time, but as we've said before, we have our reasons for that, we we had to soldier up quietly as such.
And now we know why.
>>155137030
Why?
>>155137111
Because the anime Friends are from a different generation. Mirei's Serval has her game VA.
>>155135683
How many times are we going to post this translation? Might as well put it in a damn pastebin at this rate
>>155140869
Alright I'm finished. Should I post it right away or do you want it done in order?
Just woke up to a mama bear friend and her two cubs rummaging through the birdfeeder in my yard. It was cool until they started making bear noises and I remembered that I still have to walk a ways through my neighborhood at night when I'm petsitting. I'm also gonna have to write up an email to tell everyone else we have bears in the neighborhood, which is a pain in the ass. I think they knocked over my birdfeeder and they crushed a section of my fence as well, bear friends aren't very thoughtful, are they?
>>155141480
If you do it in order you can keep the thread going for a while. Although you should probably wait until the other one dies first.
Why is the manga so gay?
>>155141594
Made by different artists, basically fanwork

Poor arai
>>155141515
The section I did was pretty short and it's getting late, so I think I'll post it now. It's not much of a closing segment, just more info so hopefully it's not too out of place, although they do mention the guidebook which the previous section talks about.
>>155141794
Please for the love of God do not link to /pol/ under any circumstances
>>155141802
Interviewer: The people who watch the show have taken to calling each other "Friends", who decided on that name?
Kadokawa: I'm pretty sure it was the fans who started that, I don't think we were involved in any way
Yaoyorozu: What name were they using when the game was still around?
Kadokawa: The game community ended up going with "Park Directors", but for some reason on the internet they refered to themselves as "Ojisan". On Twitter it was something like "Japari Parkers" I think.
Yaoyorozu: And now they've all become "Friends"
Interviewer: So you didn't decide on that name?
Kadokawa: We didn't, on the contrary we thought it would be nice if they could all be "Zookeepers", but apparently no one else did
(laughter)
Kadokawa:That's how it goes. As sponsors all we should do is put our love into production and try our hardest to do a good job. After that it's up to the fans to enjoy it however they want to.
Yaoyorozu:The only thing we actively encouraged was the Twitter hashtag by saying "Please use #KemonoFriends" (laughing)
Kadokawa:Because of the character restriction, some were using #KemoFure, but after the anime took off a lot of different hashtags came into use and there were calls for consolidation, so we decided to go with the full name.
Yaoyorozu:That's right. Besides that we didn't arrange anything else.
Kadokawa:It was the same with deciding to package the blu-ray with the guidebook. We wanted to offer it in a form that the fans would enjoy the most. When fans of the Seiyu said they'd like to participate in an event, we set up a special one for them, so hopefully they'll enjoy that. For the people who are awaiting the goods, I think they should be available soon, so please wait just a little longer. At the moment our hands are full frantically going over things with the supervising director of the anime.
Both:We'll continue to work hard on Kemono Friends, so your continued support is appreciated.

I read the first post and it was from fucking Rense of all things. There's no rock bottom for /pol/lacks' gullibility.
>>155141832
Well, if the zoo as a legal entity has dissolved, then it's pointless to call each others Zookeepers or Park Rangers.

WILD RELEASE
>>155142022
When the park is closed and everyone left, all thats left are the Friends.
It would make sense for fans to be called Friends.
If Season 1 is about Man discovering who she really is, then Season 2 is about Kaban forming a Friends Civilization.
>>155141870
Isn't it a great thing that this show is 3DCG so the fanmade videos like this and the lewder kind look identical to canon material?
In response to the anon who drew the sketch last thread, I also did my first drawing of a Kemono Friend.
I swear I'm not a professional artist.
>5 minutes until this picture becomes obsolete forever
Oh wow, the GSC nendo actually look worse than the anime CG. The headsize proportion is just terrible. I wish they make a Deka Bossu like Neko-arc.
>>155142495
The prototype looked fine.
>>155142398
Possible.
After all, they had already done things that humans did as a civilisation.
Give Kaban enough time, and she'll make Japari Park a civilisation.

What's the lasting image that the series will end on? My guess is something like pic related
>>155142465
You can still use it in ironic depression posts.
>>155142495
>>155142546
Even the prototype looked awful. It looked like exactly what it was, a rush job thrown together to make as much yen as possible before the fad is over.
>>155142465
Why did everyone forget sand cat? Sand cat was cute.
>>155142616
>It looked like exactly what it was
A fucking Nendoroid. They have large heads.
There's going to be a figma too.
>>155142495
Looks like they decided to keep game proportions for some reason
>>155142648
IRL sandcat is cute af as well.
>>155142648
I didn't forget her in the sense that I want a very lewd threesome with her and Serval.
>>155142660
The proportions on the Nendoroid prototype shown at AnimeJapan were very unpolished. The eyes needed to be adjusted and resized, body was very stiff and needed refinement. Even the cheeks need resculpting.
>>155142648
How do you forget her?
You hear her sing at the end of every ep.
>>155142691
It's almost as if it was a hastily thrown together prototype, and not the final product.
Lewd wolf.
>>155142648
Best girl
I really love Kemono Friends. I can't believe it's going to end soon. I'm going to be so sad when it ends.
Lets do it!
>watch livestream since there's only five minutes left
>silly jap show about gohan and wakaran is on
So when is the episode for real?
>>155142759

I can't believe Kaban is fucking dead.

Why is this anime so popular?
The animation is garbage.
>>155141832
Thanks for the translation. I wonder where the original translator went.

Shoebill isn't angry, her hair just makes her look like that.

Why did KF revive so many old memes?
>>155142918
>>155142897
Is there a Honey Badger in this? I'd imagine she would be a bullying type.

Which is better? 1 or 2?
>>155142759
>>155142759
Am I supposed to use this manually or what?
>>155143042
More colors like on the coin would be nice
Will Kaban and Serval live together like Beaver and Prairie Dog?
>>155142918
Ok buddy, I've put up with your shit for long enough. It was fine while the show was broadcasting but now that we're close to end it's time for you to examine your conscience. Take your example from Kaban. Would she rape shoebill? Of course not. Repent, and sin no longer. Only the pure of heart may watch Episode 12

Made this transparency a few weeks back when I felt like making a parody of the Billy and Mandy picnic thing except with the Friends but got worried about the end product like Beaver and never finished it.

Just watched the first episode. It seems cosy and less furry than I initially thought
Also this thread is nice
Why does Japan love this so much more than the west though?
>>155143524
Why isn't there a Basara Toki yet?
>>155143317

Not sure if the sauce is accurate but apparently Kemono Friends has a 1% TV rating for ep10. It was also a 3AM timeslot due to Arai-san. That is actually pretty impressive.
>>155143321
I said it a few times in the past, but I believe the whole anime industry is a money laundering scheme for the yakuza.
>>155143542
I'm really curious, just what exactly is making people think that this show would be the least bit furry?
It's Japanese, not western. The norm is animal girls not furry shit.
Monkey teaches bear the bo staff martial arts.
Tryhard Cerulean Hunter get out.
>>155143317
It's just a dirt bike, Anon
>>155143542
Don't let the extreme popularity fool you at first even the japas didn't know what they were watching. But after the credits footage in episode 2 was shown they noticed something odd and stuck with it. Turns out there is some pretty good storytelling beyond the ugly animation and it has the underdog 10-man studio feel to it so Japan loves it. Think like 2hu and its ugly presentation.
With a few more hours to spare.
I believe in Tatsuki!
>>155143557
There are people whose reviews I trust for the most part. It's not 100% obviously, I'll still usually end up dropping one or two shows per season, but I can live with that.
>>155143650
Absolutely based.
>>155143650
I love you.
>>155143650
I haven't recognized a single one of these people from the start but I appreciate that we have at least two dedicated OC creators in the west
Is this the end of a beautiful relationship?
>>155143650
I will miss you two nerds. The hidden gem of the KF threads.
>>155143609
>>155143317
It's cute considering the context.
The penguin's just saying hello since it sees the human as just a giant over-sized penguin.
The guy does it several times over because he didn't get a response, and looks at the human every time he does.

I don't watch TV, although I guess I do know Stephen Hawking and Steve Irwin

Holy shit 10/10

You can pinpoint the exact moment when we took this shit just a tad bit too seriously.
>>155143321
i'd support more yakuza if they make more good anime
>>155143875
Cameo would be more apt than a reference.
>>155143879
Maybe we'll getTesagure season 4now that Yaoyorozu is famous.

KYSHAAAAAAAAAA
>>155143917
That would be nice. They need a long time to make KF Season 2 plot anyway. I am just afraid the business side of Kadokawa will go into action to cash in on this unexpected hit.
So is there any news of any other stuff after the anime ends?
>>155143889
It's like the community outreach that gangs do, but for the new generation.
>>155143939

Also, I hope some of Tatsuki's doujin stuff gets translated somewhere.

Why do you think that? We can get a nice roundup for the story, and even if there's stuff unexplained, it's not like we really need it. I mean the story can end well without that.

The official KF website went down.
Either someone's DoSing, it's simply too popular, or it's a bad omen.
>>155144484
Unless we get a surprise Mirai coming out of nowhere in this last episode, or the tablets become the actual gods, it doesn't seem like there's any character around who could even answer the questions.

I'm just starting this series (on ep 3 right now) what should I REALLY expect? Besides cute girls doing cute things
>>155144591
Yes, this too. I should have added that, will do in case he doesn't update the text again or if the threads dies and he doesn't post it after some time on the new one.
>>155144522
They are clearly updating it for the second season announcement.

This show is basically Gakkou Gurashi with monstergirls in a zoo except nothing will actually happen. Ceruleans aren't threatening at all since we've only been told they "sort of" kill Friends, which sounds closer to mindbreaking them which is even less threatening.

If the Friends notice that you can't have more than four ears like with their fur (clothes), can they remove them?
>>155145173
The original plan was for Bear to lure it in the direction of the boat. Big Dog turned around when Serval was freed. Kaban needed to redirect it's direction.
>>155145111
She was running.
Tatsuki toaster probably couldn't handle animating both her big speech, big dog and splatz at the same time. I chalked it up to hardware limitation.
>>155145137
No no no. She was going to parry the leg with her sick parrying skill. Notice that she's carring a torch. You can parry with a torch.

> Just what's inside the "Official Guidebook" which is getting a reprint!
Reporter: The way how the "Kemono Friends Official guide book with BD" is sold has caused quite a bit of ruckus. Not the traditional BD/DVD format, but as 'book', which is pretty unique.
Kadokawa: That was kind of a coincidence as well, and I was was the one who made the idea, and there's some circumstances behind that.
Yaoyorozu: That's right. Selling by cook came about from our marketing research, and it's to really bring about a change to the anime industry...
(all laugh)
Kadokawa: In recent times, we have found that disc media is not easy to sell. However, things that have bonus items such as say event admission tickets and so forth sells well right? Although in our case we'd like to sell content. So the result we've come to is to really move away from 'selling discs'. Another thing, when we shop at stores, we buy what looks 'interesting' on the shelves, so what sort of format would fit that distribution model? It was then that I've come to chose books, since I've ever only bought books.
Reporter: But you're going to need to write a book if you've chose a book.
Kadokawa: There's contents in Kemono Friends from Yoshizaki-san, which you can deliver to those interested if they're published in a book. It's be a waste to just let it sit and be buried, and the fans would be interested in them. Even so, we's made up our minds to sell books even before having obtained the permission to publish. (laughs) The KemoFure guide that we have up on the web was already going to be made into a book, which is why we've decided on choosing book as our medium.

>>155145444
Reporter: I'd want the "KemoFure Guide" as a gook!
Kadokawa: I'd be be happy if other fans would think the same as well. The price of discs with bonus contents have only gone up and up and I honestly don't know what it is that people are selling anymore. So I thought that instead of going for the added bonus (omake) business model, or that event based model, we should just go for getting one's money's worth instead. We might not have gone this route if we were all people of the anime industry. I'd thought "can I sell this as a book?" given that I've been making books all along at any rate.
Reporter: What kind of articles are in the book? There's not much information on the mail order sites and so forth...
Kadokawa: To all the fans, we are sorry to keep you waiting and not having giving you any lowdown on the contents. Given that the BD is a bonus, the content are all complements to the BD. Go look at the book and then at the BD, watch the BD and flip the book, it'd be something along that line, you should find that fun. This week is actually the deadline for the drafts, but we haven't gotten it all done. I was just to do the detail works, but selection of topics, rough drafts, finalized drafts and so forth are all on me...
Reporter: Ehhh? That's tough. The editor usually doesn't pen drafts right?
Kadokawa: This piece of work is kind of hard to explain to others. There's no original comic and whatnot and you can't really have people go through the original material considering the release date of the guide. I have to wait on my writers to finish their piece and then then go through them which takes time, so I'd thought it'd be faster if I just do it all myself.
>>155144767

Reporter: There's six planned volumes in all that are planned, but just how big are the volumes?
Kadokawa: It's size B5 and the number of pages is around 40 pages each.
Yaoyorozu: The fans who are used to buying anime BDs should be taken by surprise. Normally the booklet that comes with the BD are only about the size of the case and they have few pages.
Reporter: "Bonus part 1: booklet" is a common practice.
Yaoyorozu: This time we have this relationship turned upside down. The real content is the book and the BD is the bonus. Kaji-san really had to work hard, but I think that those who picked this up would be satisfied by the results. Yould likely want to buy volume 2 and up if you've looked through volume 1.
Kadokawa: Please don't pressure me further! (laughs) But it is true that we've had the need to republish volume 1 from the reservation numbers, but I'd be on the hook if we can't sell starting with volume 2 and up because I messed up with volume 1. What a heavy responsibility on me.
Reporter: So what can you tell us about what kind of articles are getting published?
Kadokawa: Volume 1 has an interview with Director Tatsuki. We were way too excited so we ended up going for 3 hours during the interview. I had to increase the interview pages because it wouldn't have fit if otherwise.
Yaoyorozu: By the way, you see that Tiger illustration on Amazon, which is actually the back cover.
Kadokawa: The box contains the book and the BD, while that Tiger drawing is drawn by Yoshizaki-san. As for why that's not the cover and it's the at the back, it's because there are two different sort of contents in the book. It's actually the KemoFure guide if you read the book in reverse order. Normally the bottom of the book would have the box reserved for barcode and whatnot, but we can make use of the of the back better like that. The front cover would use the anime picture which would be upscaled and cleaned up.

>Normally the booklet that comes with the BD are only about the size of the case
BD case is almost as big as B5. Also, even back in the days some added artbooks were smaller. Nowadays it's just a bunch of small cards. Fuck this this. I'm kinda disappointed in this, since I thought the guidebooks are X4 sized or something, like normal separately sold artbooks. But it explains why is it so cheap. Well.

There's a couple shows next season I'm interested in but its still a lot less than normally catches my eye. I also fell behind on pretty much everything else this season. KF has ruined me.
>>155146446
>most boring person
But that's not Gentoo.
>>155146431
Naturally. But the director said the plot for the final episode is unaffected by the popularity spike so we're getting it as it should be.

>>155146336
Good luck with that. I already have an itinerary planned come Spring.
>>155146431
Didn't one of the staff say they would not change the ending despite the show picking up in popularity? They felt that whether good end or bad end it serves as a conclusion to Kaban's journey
>>155146437
Tiger is a top tier onee-chan too. Shame we didn't get her in the anime.

Yaoyorozu: I supposed that people who want to buy volume 1 would be at a loss when they open this up over mail order sites, since they'd see an anime that hasn't been featured in the anime yet...
Kadokawa: Where'd Serval go at that. (laughs)
Reporter: Is that so! (laughs). You've lost me. Will all 6 volumes have about same size as the first?
Kadokawa: That's what we are going for, but can we really do it~
(All laugh)
Yaoyorozu: Volume 2 would follow after volume 1 is complete, but we haven't finished with volume 1 year. Nevertheless, we have to get going on making volume 2 soon...
Reporter: Volume 1 has an interview with Director Tatsuki, so what about volume 2?
Kadokawa: Volume 2 are interviews with Hakusui-san the art director and Ise-san who does the settings.
Reporter: Then would there be an interview and a "KemoFure guide" with every volume?
Kadokawa: That's right. We are hoping that the fans will be pleasantly surprised when they read it. A lot of the setting materials that Yoshizaki-sensei have made in the early days are precious stuff that have never gotten published before. There's a lot of anime related material which are planned for volume 6. I can't really tell you the details, but please look forward to them.
Yaoyorozu: There's plenty of fans of Yoshizaki-san who are really waiting to see his picture, so I think that they'd be pleased to see the setting materials. Of course the support of the VA fans are very important, but we wouldn't gone to where we are now if it's just from the popularity of the VA.
Kadokawa: If the popularity of the voice actresses did explode, then interview of the actresses may be included as well, but for now are are planning on doing more contents relating to the worldview. Especially at this early stage so we can get a broad overview of the world as much as possible. Obviously the guest voice actresses' comments would be included, the 9 main actresses will be introduced in detail from volume 3-5.

Reporter: The people who are posting illustrations up on Pixiv and so forth would really like having a lot of setting materials.
Kadokawa: The setting materials won't be like how it is with run of the mill anime. The way how the work is divided up is different with the production of 'KemoFure', which is something that I was told by the Director (laughs). There are a few materials that should make it in by... volume 3? They are characters' rear view designs done by Yoshizaki-san. I wonder if it can make it before Comiket?
Reporter: That's great! Are those info relevant to the making of cosplay costumes? (laughs)
Kadokawa: There's about 10 characters who we plan to publish. Everyone, are you all interested with where the tails are? You will get your answer by that point in time.
Reporter: I think everyone will be pleased to find out. I'd like to see it soon!
Kadokawa: I am glad that you think this way (laughs). We really don't have much that we'd want to hide as producers. Normally some of the hidden settings would just go unmentioned right? We try to tell you what we can, so that you can make use of them for derivative work.
Yaoyorozu: It's strange for me to say this as I am directly involved, but "Kemono Friends" is of a strange piece of work isn't it? Such as how that sandstar fell from the sky in the game whereas it came out of the volcano in the anime.
Kadokawa: Yeah. We explained the reason why it came out of the volcano properly. You're sure to understand if we have the chance to have it explained. It'll be quite a stimulating revelation, especially for those who have played the game.
>>155147174

>>155147341
Holy shit, this is actually beautiful
And I am done with the translation of the animate interview which is http://www.animatetimes.com/news/details.php?id=1488452395.
Kadokawa refers to Kaji, the Kadokawa comic editor in chief.
Yaoyorozu refers to Fukuhara. This studio made Tesagure.
The date of the interview was February 14, 2017, when Episode 6 "Plains" first aired.
>>155147359
So I guess the Sandstar eruption theory is pretty much confirmed.
>>155147373
SEED
>>155147518
Yes. The question is just how bad is it? Our compiled infodump basically couldn't rule out that the sandstar event is a global catastrophe.
>>155147498
Thanks.
ohhhhh fuck 5 minutes is nearing, I'm nervous
>>155147498
>>155147457
>>155147421
>>155147359
This is interesting. Does it mean that even though the last episode airs just now, we still have to wait months until the answers are out and we fully get the story? Will you even be here to translate all the guidebooks? They certainly didn't make it easy for the gaijins.
>>155147498
Fukuhara is the director producer of the studio btw. Forgot to mention this.
>>155147551
How many more 5 minutes?!
>>155147538
If humanity really is fucking dead then there's no doubt that the eruption sent sandstar flying up in the air globally
>>155147582
I can't fucking believe that humanity is dead.
>>155147582
That's the speculah
Whole globe is filled with friends and cerulean, the travelling never stop
>>155147571
Have to have to the guidebooks to read through, and this is the limit of my nip comprehension. I don't think I even cut for N3.
>>155147571
The halfway marker on the top of the volcano could very well have been the revelation on how sandstar both existed as coming from a mountain and falling from the sky.
>>155147449
fat fox
>>155147347
But that was last season.
>>155147359
>They are characters' rear view designs done by Yoshizaki-san
Oh man.
>>155147639
We've discussed this nonstop during the last week on several speculah threads. A very significant volume have been removed from the mountaintop considering that the mountain's been halved in height. Sandstar rho particulates may be all you need to trigger Cerulean or friend formation, but we are not sure. If Lucky Beast turns into a friend, then we have even more reasons to assume that exposure to sandstar particulates in the air is enough to turn things into friends/ ceruleans.
>>155147686
I have more questions about the hair/horns/head of some friends.
Hey /a/ hey.What if the planet itself an Earth Friend?
>>155147707
1:35:00 remaining.
Fuck.
It's time to nap and then wake up in time for subs.
Godspeed friends.
The final episode will air in 5 minutes!
>>155147105
Still waiting for Kaban's wild release.
>>155147731
>Earth is a friend
I am down with that.
I know it's cancer but Kemono Friends jumped from a 4.15 mean score at the beginning to a 7.45 mean score on mal.
>>155147105
>>155147731
Well fuck you I don't want another Final Fantasy The Movie.I actually liked the plot though
>>155147731
Yes yes,
Cerval is Serval.
Cerulean Queen is Kaban.
>>155147757
>I know it's cancer but I'll post it anyway
Every fucking time.
I know it's rude but I want you to kill yourself.
>>155147757
No one cares.
>>155147776
I wouldn't want Square Enix anywhere near Kemono Friends given their recent track record.
Although would you play a FF Kemono Friends game if it's written by Yoshizaki Mine and Tatsuki?
>>155147811
Luhulu!
>>155147751
but we are already fucking the earth friend
>>155147828
Tell them what kind of anon you are!
>>155147813
BOTW KF game from Nintendo sounds the best.
>>155147702
I don't know if that's just me, but it seemed that the Sandstar rho is a different kind of sandstar, and the four gods device filters it out. So the filtered sandstar can make friends, but the unfiltered makes cerulean.
>>155147776
Talking about FF spirit within
It has great CG when I watched it as a kid. How come CG didn't improve after all these years?
>>155147813
I would play an oldschool jrpg with kemono friends ip for sure but I fear these days all you get is otaku pandering shit with bad writing and bad gameplay like neptunia.
>>155147731
So you're saying the 4 gods of the cardinal directions combine with their 5th, the center god, to form Kaban Planet.
>>155147813
I want a kemono friends game made by the developers of Animal Crossing and the Old Spyro games.
>>155147856
rho is just a term used to indicate density
>>155147859
Neptunia is specifically meant to be all about the shitposting gaming otaku community from the get-go. I don't want KF to be done by CH even if I don't hate them.
Come to think of it, I'd like to see Tsunako draw some friends.
>>155147857
Advent Children was better, with the BD remaster looking even better. I agree that there was nothing that could beat it until the Decima engine.
>>155147857
You should see Kingsglaive then.
>>155147813
A KF game by Platinum
>>155147849
Shitpost Pengi!
>>155147874
She's our hero. Gonna take Cerulean down to zero.
>>155147849
What's an anon? Can you eat it?
>>155147857
It's related to how much you can improve and people still noticing that difference. Going from <10 to >100 polygons makes a huge difference but the next steps will not be as worthwhile for people playing/watching.
Also one detail about FFSW CG is that no one has hair except the girl because they simply could not render everyone with hair.

Doesn't make much sense. I'll wait for the official reveal then.

>>155148063
Is that official Mine art on the right? If so then game and anime Serval are confirmed to be different people.
>>155148058
Yumachin pls.I agree.
>>155148156
Kaban, closest thing to a prophet.

Glory to mankind
Just reposting two points from the interview with Tatsuki on http://otapol.jp/2017/03/post-10123_entry.html/ Dated March 27.
The glow in the eyes is a setting that was added into the game rather subtly, and there weren't much thought about whether or not if this setting would be discovered by the fans and that it was added in without impacting the plot, so that maybe one of these days long after the broadcast that somebody would come to realize this
>Reporter asked about if this show will end badly.
Tatsuki: We've said that Kemono Friends is a warm piece of work, and people misread that as if there wouldn't be any dramatic development. I think that good or bad end are all acceptable so long as it comes about reasonably. However, we will not be changing the ending just because the show has far exceeded the expected reaction and reception. Please accept the path that the characters must take whether if it's a good end or a bad end.
>>155148183
CUTE!
Those eyes on Shoebill are so good.
>>155148242
>they're all bossus
>>155148243

Bad end confirmed.
>>155148301
What if it was an open end?
Sandstar is actually LCL from evangelion
>>155148301
>>155148243
This is just that "please enjoy the nice heartwarming episode" stunt they pulled in episode 11 all over againright?
>>155148325
Sandstar is actually Tiberium from C&C
>>155148243
>the producer said no one was going to die
>a bad end is still a possibility
>>155148319
Then I delete this show off my hard drive
>>155148328
>ep11 warms my heart
>nobody will die
In before someone say YuYuYu
>>155148338
Dying isn't the only bad thing that can happen.
>>155148338
Loss of memory end! That's actually worse than death honestly.
>>155148371
That's what I was implying.
>>155148243
Happily living ever after fags on suicide watch.
With the sad ending this show will go down in history as all time classic like cowboy bebop and dbz for true connoisseurs like myself.
>>155148400
YES
THIS
>>155148338
The director said nobody would die actually.
>>155148346
You mean you would keep a TV broadcast version as an archive anyway?
>>155148319
Very unlikely. They were fully aware that this would likely be the end of the whole franchise. Seems like they are sticking to the story they planned despite the boom in popularity.

New tidbit from 50th Animate VA chitchat
-This is the first time that Serval VA Ozaki had dubbed for any animal, so she watched Serval vids prior to that
>Uchida who does Kaban sought input from Director Tatsuki
>Ep11 is the most serious
>It's not all prescored
>There's no video shown during the scoring
>They use notes for parts that aren't in the script, and that's how the last half of ep11 and ep12 were mostly like
>The last episode will have a blood boiling development "that's how anime got to be"
>The last episode will have a surprising development. It will be "Ta-noshii-" in the end.
>please bear witness to Kaban-chan and Servan-chan's journey.
>>155148420
He asked the viewers to avoid misinterpreting what that guy said. I think he is just saying that there is no bad end plot twist just for shock value. A bad end is still a possibility if it happened naturally.
>>155148472
Nah the director said it in the first interview published about the show.
https://pastebin.com/D8bg5Kxu
>While strange objects keep appearing, it's not a work where characters end up dying or anything, so we need to consider the contents of each character very deeply, otherwise the story won't have any impact. We put a lot of consideration into that so that viewers would be able to enjoy the story's ups and downs properly.
The director is giving a diplomatic answer rather than "I ain't spoiling the ending, watch the show asshole"
>>155148507

You're going to ruin everything for yourself. Watching it raw just so you can react first with everyone is completely missing the point of enjoying anime.

>>155148698
Why the red cape thought? Only reason that I can think is because of Shonen hero tropes/Suoernan.
>>155148546

To be frank, Kaban's awesome for an anime only character. Even more when the series started out as a mobile game.
I imagine nip twitter #けものフレンズ is going to go fucking bonkers. #1 on world wide trend today?
>>155149089
Don't worry. Kadokawa will let you make Kemono Friends game. It's already stated in the interview that they aren't going all banhammer on it.
