Backpack friend is obviously into (short) shorts, so a 7.62x51mm NATO FAL is her one and only companion. Maybe she can fit it in her bag if she got a hold of the folding stock version. She should probably ditch it for the G3 with a nice retractable stock, but her sentimental attachment to her FAL kept her from making the switch. I can't blame her.
Serval friend would most likely carry a folding .22 plinker rifle of some sort. Maybe a pistol. Whatever is more fun to shoot in her opinion.
Raccoon friend looks like someone who is into old rifles. Maye she has an old Gewehr 98, or a Lebel 1886, or even a Krag.
Fennec friend is clearly a 9mm fox. Obviously a good old MP5 with a short retractable stock and a big flashlight so she can have fun at night too. It's still a little too heavy for her, but the short stock makes holding it with the heavy flashlight a little easier, so she doesn't mind.
Shoebil is clearly into birdshot. A good old mossy, maybe with some sort of holographic sights for quicker target acquisition and better hunting.
Mrs. Grape likes to do whatever her husbando does. He doesn't really like to go hunting but loves to fish, and you never know what kind of friend might be into a little rougher fun when you are out in the wilds. She carries a leaver action carbine chambered either in .44 Magnum or .357 Magnum just to be on the safe side. Maybe a Marlin 1894.

As nuHouse has taken over, western tracks have become broadly instrumental, even non-house tracks; vocal leads are typically only allowed when they are also an instrument (see: Happy Hardcore) or when their words are most important and not the emotion behind the words (see: old-school Synthpop). Another unfortunate thing is that modern music editing tends to temper vocal tracks and drain the fun out of songs for the sake of good equalization and loudness, while japs don't care about any of that shit.

All bats would carry around grenades from various nations and eras in their pockets. Not only do they look like fruit, which is the main source of food for fruit bats, but normal bats can use the explosions to achieve ultra long dinstance echo location.
They are also distributing free earplugs at the range and all like to wear T-shirts advocating eye-protection while shooting.
The lesser and greater horseshoe bat have a continuous debate about weather or not impact fuzes are a good idea. Greater horseshoe bat thinks they are too dangerous and can kill you if you accidentally hit something right in front of you, while lesser horseshoe bat thinks that their advantages outweigh this risk for combat purposes (and is still too scared to actually throw one).
Both agree that fragmentation is key, but the bulldog bat sisters disagree, citing explosive force as the main killer.

Original sloth was evocative, reflecting the idea of a furry, slow-moving and easygoing creature. New design tries to just throw visual identifiers of the animal in there, but makes the Friend look less easygoing because her hair is straighter, and less furry because it's a thin jacket instead of a woolen one.
The laziness aspect goes for the messy clothes, but it doesn't evoke laziness nearly as well, and not in a cute way, too. Old design looks comfy. New design says "yeah, I don't give a shit about my clothes, what are you gonna do about it?"
In short I don't like it and I sure as shit hope it doesn't catch on.

ようこそ PXXXXX Park, /a/! Today we'll be exploring anon's actual backyard and seeing some of the environment our friends live in!
PXXXXX Park is located in the Great Plains. It's home to a number of friends, most of them native, some of them not so much. Some of the more common friends are...
>Mountain Lion-san
Sometimes referred to by her nickname "cougar-chan," mountain lion-san lives all around our part of the Great Plains! She prefers to live in the mountains, but she can occasionally be found in PXXXXX Park. I've seen her lounging around occasionally, and one time she spooked me by coming right up next to me and letting me give her head-pats. Cougar-chan is an important friend for our ecosystem even if she's scary and sometimes runs off to play with dog-san or cat-san.
>Mule Deer-san
While White Tail-san can occasionally be spotted, she's shy around strangers. Mule Deer-san is a fairly common sight in PXXXXX Park as she can't be hunted here doesn't like to leave the park and has very few natural predators mostly plays with the smaller friends.
>Skunk-san
Skunk-san likes to play but can easily be frightened! Recently she's contracted rabies been sick, so we should leave her be if we see her in PXXXXX Park and let her rest!
>Downy Woodpecker-san
Woodpecker-san is not a shy girl! She likes to fly right past you and will perch on your hand give you hugs if you give her food! She likes having pictures taken of her and she likes to make very strange songs for fun.
No.832945

PXXXXX Park is in the Great Plains, this means we have very hot and dry summers, and very cold and windy winters, so most friends have adapted to survive year-round or only come to visit in certain seasons. While we have Spring and Fall, those seasons tend to only really last a month at most before switching to Summer or Winter. The environment is a Semi-Arid desert, so it's important to both remain hydrated and stay out of the sun! At our high altitude and with our mountains blocking off a lot of the sea air that would drift over the continent, the environment here has very few clouds! Rain isn't extremely uncommon, but it tends to come in either batches of a week at a time with flash flooding, or not at all for two to three weeks at a time, so we have lots of fires. A sunny day in most of the United States is a cloudy day here in the Great Plains!
The main danger is obviously the sun. We receive three times the amount of solar radiation compared to the coastlines, and the radiation and natural uranium deposits throughout the Great Plains ensures we receive about 15x as much radiation on a daily basis compared to Hiroshima or Nagasaki! Other threats include our ticks, which carry ever, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, tularemia and relapsing fever, as well as a much higher concentration of Lyme disease than most of the US. Even if it's 80-100 degrees and the sun is beating down on you, you should always wear full-length pants and boots when going on a trip into tall grassy fields or woodland! While mosquitoes do exist here, they are largely a non-threat because it's too far North and too hot/dry for them to carry most of the blood-born pathogens that they carry in the Southern US. They tend to not appear at all except near still bodies of water and in constantly shady areas.

There are lots of cute plants around PXXXXX Park! As you can see, there are a lot of Pine, Spruce, and Fir trees around here. There are beautiful yucca plants that grow all over in the open dry air, and while cactus-san had hidden away for the winter, he will have fully returned by July or August! While Painted Lady butterflies can occasionally be seen, most of our butterflies come in blacks and browns to blend in with the environment, and can easily be mistaken for moths. On anon's trip today through PXXXXX Park, there were a number of Weidemeyer’s Admirals flying about! Downy Woodpecker-san decided to make a visit and even brought her friends along!
While most the bugs around are grasshoppers, crickets, wasps, and bees, right now there are also an influx of cicadas! It's ringing like Japan here in PXXXXX Park right now as you can hear them anywhere the trees and shade are present!

As we approach the end of today's trip to PXXXXX Park, it should be remembered that we should do our best to clean up after ourselves!

In addition, the Great Plains have been infected with a number of invasive species, such as Fox Squirrel-san who bullies the smaller and cuter Albert-chan and Pine-chan! Make sure to always use local wood when camping as well, as some campers brought wood for their camping trip infected with bark-eating beetles, which may be the cause of the injuries to poor tree-sama here. Now to make our way back!
No.832951

As a final reminder, it's important to remember where you are and to always keep extra water and sunscreen! Because of the climate and because of all the wildfires, when it does rain for more than a drizzle, flash flooding is very common in PXXXXX Park! While our friends at the wastewater facility process this flash flood water as best as they can, there's just too much water at once! If the chance or rain is high or it's been raining for multiple days, it's best to stick to the community areas or not come at all! Many of these flash floods create fake trails that look like real trails, but just lead to the wastewater processing areas, and many of these fake trails are full of poisonous bugs when it hasn't rained for a few weeks because of exposed roots and holes that the flash flooding creates. While it's hard to tell, that last picture is actually a 20 foot drop on the side of the trail less than a foot away. If a flash flood hit, that could be very dangerous!
Well, that's all for today's trip through Anon's actual backyard! Maybe some other day we'll go explore Pike's Peak together, or a different trail. Thank you for enjoying PXXXXX Park and have a wonderful day, anons!

Shooting in that climate can be very dangerous though. Friendly reminder to not use tracer rounds in such a dry wooded area, as the phosphorus can easily cause fires. Don't fire at anything made out of metal either for similar reasons. The muzzle flash can be dangerous too. A shooting mat is recommended.

I might not have all the facts, but I'll tell you what I know from following this meme a bit.
I think it all started with the Jaguarman MAD (embed related), which mixed the Jaguar episode from Kemono Friends with the Devilman theme. This caught on naturally like memes tend to do, and people started putting their own spins on it with other Friends or other opening themes from oldschool anime, out of which the Casshan and Tiger Mask ones stood out especially. Eventually it got a bit more meta as Devilman, Casshan and Tiger Mask sort of became actual characters playing active parts within the MADs and started being representative of the meme in general, appearing in the offshoots about im@s and virtual youtubers and whatever else.

Kinda sad, really. I wonder what explanation could be for legendary Friends like Inugami or Yatagarasu, did they simply grew uninterested in helping the others? Did the existence of stronger Ceruleans make them dissapear? Did they all make a big sacrifice, leaving only black Cerulean behind?

Here's the timeline, that fits both the facts and the guidebook.
>Nexon game takes place the first. During the formation of Japari Park, a cerulean outbreak forces closure and Mirai, just starting out, helps in the effort to thwart them
>Manga takes place after that. Mirai is promoted to guide, the park is at its peak
During that time, the park is very developed, it's almost like a major city that has some natural areas around it. Friends coexist with human civilization and thus are able to learn human skills.
>Then presumably a second outbreak occurs and this time humans can't contain it. They either fuck off the park after learning sandstar hitting their stuff is what causes Ceruleans in the first place (making their presence harmful to Friends in the long run) or fucking die.
>Leading to the anime, a very unspecified amount of time later. Could be decades, could be centuries, only remnants of human stuff is lying around and most Friends can't learn from it, so they stay in their natural state of vague humanity/mostly animal. The anime, though, doesn't feature any major city ruin so I think it's safe to say Tatsuki said fuck that and retconned it to be a more simple park without any major shit. I consider it was the right call.
As for the mythical Friends, that's really a whole other can of worms. I think we should stick to the rule of sandstar hitting things. Suzaku could be a statue hit by sandstar for instance. They have divine attributes but are still ultimately just Friends, revert back after a while, and are reborn later, as is the Friend circle of life.

I wonder how did the Park treat troublesome guests when the park was operational and you could interact with the Friends. More than one must've "accidentally" groped Emperor's bosom, or someone using a hidden camera for upskirt shots of Serval. Maybe the keepers told the Friends to tell them, or maybe to slap the person saying that their animal instincts kicked in? Or maybe the first Lucky Beasts could've been more guards than guides, recording and/or tasing these kind of people.

I'm not on board with the "if tatsuki can't have it then no-one can" mentality.
Tatsuki doesn't NEED to be the director for S2 to be great, since there's literally an ocean of talent out there (see >>843754 for example) that can capture the magic we had in the first season easily (even if it doesn't match Tatsuki's vision).
Still we propably won't even get that since "fans" decided it was a good idea to boycott the whole franchise, which is why Kadokawa can just kill it for good since it's no longer profitable.
>>843803
I'm not buying it that a literal billion-dollar corporation would make such an objectively bad business decision. It makes far more sense that Mine is to blame than Kadokawa. Things would add up if it was personally motivated. The smoking gun, to me, is Tatsuki blocking him on Twitter first, and him being completely silent on the whole incident while Kadokawa actually tried to step in and mediate.
No.843954
>>843930
It does seem that way as time has gone by. But why would Kadokawa pull the plug? Is Mine such a big influence? The only thing I can think of would be that Kadokawa already screwed up, but it was easier to fire a small-time director, rather than the more established veteran artist that gave life to the characters in appearance and feel. Not that it would be difficult to find someone else to design animal girls, but the girls were initially designed my Mine, right? That could've caused a bigger uproar, I think. But if Mine got butthurt about the series' designs getting so popular at the expense of his, then fuck him every day of his life.
Kadokawa is probably dodging a bullet by not doing a second season, but now it makes people want for one, they're not that stupid to pull a Teatrino or Milky Holmes, right?

This does not fill me with confidence, because this shows they don't have it themselves. This shows they're willing to sack whoever they picked up entirely at the slightest hint it won't work. They want their success, just not with the team that made it a success.

Cancelled in its second volume, yes. It was just bog standard. I can give them the benefit of the doubt and consider they named it after the OP song, but that was the catchy hook that hid the dark undertones, naming your short after it definitely indicates it's going to be pure saccharine.
Now that I think about it, though, I'm not sure how any studio could capture the anime's essence with a short. The anime was something of a slow burn. This may just be a losing proposition entirely.

Good ol' corporate shilling, brand loyalty and enough merchandise, waifus and husbandos to blot out the sun. Fate has always been a powerhouse and will continue to be for maybe more than 10 years in the future, idolshit is always popular and they stay relevant of they keep churning music and merchandise. The only one that truly annoys me is Kancolle, if what my friend that plays it told me is true. The creator doesn't believe churning out anything aside from figures and the girls appearing in Lawson's will sell, so that's why they won't make some videogame spin-offs, for example. That's retarded, the series sells like crazy but the game itself has been losing popularity, especially because it hasn't been offering anything except new seasonal CGs, unlike FGO that at least tells a story, with Nasu on board, for example. Azure Lane is gaining ground too, and it seems like the battles are a little bit more fun, plus the girls have fanservice toned up even more, so that will attract suckers. It IS chinkshit and they're shitting the bed hard for the Western release.
My crazy, out-there theory about Kemono Friends and what happened was that they weren't ready. They weren't ready for its success, and so they didn't prepare merchandise beforehand. They were probably whipping the artists to start designing 120 new Seibas and idol figures, so they never took the Friends into account. So they panicked a bit and could've come up with a plan to start designing figures and more merchandise, but Tatsuki happened and it was a good excuse to not whip the artists overdrive.

ようこそ Garden of the Gods Park /a/!
I decided to travel quite a distance today in order to bring you back pictures of a different park! This park is much more populated than anon's local park, and thus there's far more filthy tourists. For some reason people from Texas, China, and Idaho really like this park and I don't understand why. Today we have different friends who came to play with us! Today's adventure features our friends...
>Bighorn Sheep-san
While Bighorn Sheep-san can certainly climb mountains like a mountain goat, she doesn't like you confusing her with her friend! They're not the same friend and they have different features! Mountain Goat-san tends to be aggressive and has more spiked horns and long, fluffy white coats. Bighorn Sheep-san tends to be poofy with tan or brown fur and her horns curve around, usually with blunt ends since she doesn't use them much being a gentler friend. There is an excellent Canadian song called "goat sheep goat" to help you distinguish these two friends better!
>Cottontail-san
Cottontail-san is most famous for the song "Peter Cottontail" about her brother. This friend can grow to about the size of a human pelvis out here, and she's generally harmless or a pest and just likes to graze. Unless Cottontail-san is causing problems, you should leave her be so she can be eaten by play with Coyote-san!
>Coyote-san
Coyote-san likes to cause mischief out here in Garden of the Gods Park! She likes playing with the other friends and is mainly active at night and in the morning near human areas! Coyote-san is very curious, but you should try to avoid playing with her too much as she gets too rambunctious quite easily and might accidentally hurt you!
>American Crow-san
Crow-san is quite common around here as her and Blue Jay-san share the holes in the rocks for shelter. Crow-san can be heard cawing throughout the day while many of the bird friends decide to take an afternoon nap.
>Gray Fox-san
Gray Fox-san can occasionally be seen, but she likes to hide along with Red Fox-san out here in Garden of the Gods Park due to the presence of various Dog friends throughout the day traveling the trails. Unfortunately they don't get along and most dog friend owners aren't responsible about preventing their dogs from hunting playing with her, so she's over-stimulated!

As a friendly reminder, please respect your local parks and always follow signs! Garden of the Gods Park has experienced very bad management by the government as well as very bad tourists, and the Park Rangers are trying their best to recover the park as much as possible! Even if you can see the road, please follow the trails until you arrive as a crosswalk as climbing through the brush both damages the wildlife and causes soil erosion in this flash flooding-prone region as I discussed last trip! This particular park allows for horse and donkey riding. When riding a horse or donkey through a natural park, you should always ask for a poo bag or something to collect refuse so unwitting visitors or friends don't accidentally step in Horse-san's feces! In addition, while you may obtain a climbing permit, please refrain from purchasing one as it destroys these beautiful red rocks! Wind and Water erosion will in time destroy these landmarks, but perhaps a bigger threat is filthy gaijin tourists who don't respect the rocks! As can be seen in one picture, that rock used to be almost entirely red before it was overclimbed! The governing body in this area is very corrupt and does not take proper care of the rocks because they're making a killing off of climbing permits without giving any of the money back to the park for conservation! Along one of the trails, I found that someone had intentionally cleared out the brush along a vegetating patch in order to form their own trail to take pictures of the mountains. Please don't do this!!! This sort of damage caused by destructive tourism is irreparable, as unlike the plants and friends, these rocks and natural paths will never go back to their former glory!
No.851275

Yosh! Lecturing aside, some of you might be wondering "why are the rocks red, anon?" Well, this area is very high in iron deposits! The rocks are red because of iron oxide present on the surface of these rocks and in the surrounding gravel and sands!
Garden of the Gods Park is named after two European surveyors. When they had been traveling through the region, M. S. Beach suggested that it would be a "capital place for a beer garden" to which his assistant, Rufus Cable, awestruck by the impressive rock formations exclaimed, "Beer Garden! Why it is a fit place for the Gods to assemble. We will call it the Garden of the Gods." The Ute Indian tribes like to claim that they too called it "the garden of the gods" but in reality, the Ute tribes simply considered the red rocks to be spiritual and did not actually believe their gods were sleeping there, contrary to popular belief. Many other Indian tribes have made similar claims- they're also false.

As with most of these areas, friends are not too active during the middle of the day because it's hot! While in the shade of the rocks it can get to be 30 freedom units colder, it easily gets into the 90s or sometimes even 100s! Most Friends are active in the early morning or in the early evening when things start to cool down. That being said, these are plains and they're at a very high altitude! One should always watch out for Rattlesnake-san! She tends to stay off the trails and she's usually docile, but if you stray off the trails and accidentally step on her, she'll bully you until you're in the hospital or dead anon! Being at high altitude, you can see the open blue skies in our photos of today's adventure. Out here in this semi-arid desert at high altitude, you get about three times the solar radiation you'd receive at sea level, and about 15 times the radiation you'd receive visiting Hiroshima! Always apply sunscreen! Anon didn't prepare ahead of time and only brought SPF 10 oil, so now his entire arms and neck are cancerous sunburned!

While we're on the topic of sunlight, it's important to stay hydrated while traveling through Garden of the Gods. Anon ate a low-sodium breakfast this morning, so halfway into my hike, I started getting light-headed even though I was drinking water! While some people recommend sports drinks, I have found that tomato juice, vegetable juice, and similar drinks contain both the sodium and potassium your body needs with only a little bit of sugar which is naturally present in the veggies. A cold can of V8 juice along with a short break at the (currently abandoned) Girl Scout camp next to the Park Ranger camp along the way had me back in action! Remember that hydration is not just water, anons!

Because there's so many tourists, the friends around here are niggers not very shy. Mule Deer-san was angry that I didn't feature her twice and she almost attacked me while walking a trail today! I also saw Cottontail-san and many bird Friends! Unfortunately, the bird friends were very far away in their holes up above, protected from Snake Friends and other natural predators, so I couldn't get a good picture of them. In this picture, there were dozens of birds that my camera was simply unable to capture in its lens because they blended so well with the rocks or in the sky.

It's important to remember that the Great Plains are a very diverse ecosystem. Without just a handful of species, these lush plains would turn into a rocky desert much like parts of Nevada, Utah, and Arizona.

I wish I could have brought back pictures around the same time as our other Park adventure, but we've had a lot of rain recently! Because of the desert-like conditions in our park, I was unable to explore it when it was a nice brown and yellow. Instead, it's been a lush green mixed with hues of blue and other colors due to the month-long rains we rarely see during this time of the summer. It's important to remember that much of the earth here is dry and doesn't absorb water well, so lots of rain means lots of flash flooding! Always be careful exploring a desert environment when it rains, anons!

Well, this brings us near the end of our tour today through Garden of the Gods Park anons! I hope you've enjoyed the scenery and have thought of some excellent battle plans that our Friends can use in their war games! I apologize for being less talkative in today's adventure, but my car broke down on my way home today so my brain's numb, and I couldn't think of too many things to talk about with these beautiful red rocks. I haven't been a very good park ranger for you all... Gomen'nasai! I have a few more images to show you of the park, and I hope other anons will travel to their local parks and share the friends that travel through them!

Everyone knows the truth is that Kaban is actually a zombie Mirai, when a Friend gets cerulean'd they don't thorughly return to the state they were before becoming a Friend, retaining some elements of the time when the were Friends, hence why Kaban stays in Kaban form instead of becoming Mirai again. Yaoyoruzu just made up the 'it was just a hair dude I swear' plotline so that it would be a happy ending, which is fine really, but totally a lie in truth. Mirai is absolutely dead. Just like the KF series

There's another animation that looks like terrible Flash, but according to this fag, it seems to be a prequel. Now that Caracal is here, I can believe they're really going for a prequel. Now I don't know which was worse: doing a prequel to not mingle with the original, or do a sequel and risk fans say "this is not how Tatsuki would've done it". They really painted themselves into a corner, and sadly the Friends will get the brunt. I don't want fans burning KF merchandise. I would've preferred to see them reach the new island, they could've gotten a competent director that liked and understood the first season, but then again, Kadokawa might think "why are we caring so much? This isn't FGO /Kancolle/LL(?)"

It's definitely a raw deal to work on something when the well has been poisoned that comprehensively. I wouldn't even blame anyone for phoning it in instead of really working hard on something that will be hated from the outset. Still, that animation doesn't look like they're even trying to make it like season 1.

It's not needlessly fast and not good, what you're watching is that the characters have no weight to them. Tatsuki-sama always tried to include a little "weight" into character movements unless something was being done for a gag like tossing the bus. What you're witnessing are these characters haven't been "weighted" (which is honestly a standard practice in most 3D animation these days) so their movements are as if they're weightless objects being moved around with a mouse. Which, honestly, is probably exactly what's happening. I took a still frame to show what I'm talking about. Even if your eye can't track the movement, your brain can, and questions why the object in midair doesn't have drag or gravity affecting it.

I had a tiny shred of hope that even the corporate shit anime would continue the story or do something worthwhile with it so I could at least be angry at them and anons could be angry together about it, but now there's literally nothing left.

In all honestly pastebin pro doesn't really make any difference to me one way or the other, but I do appreciate it. A more useful way to help would be spreading it around since I'm way too autistic to do anything related to that.
I am sorry the project has been on hold but I've been actively involved in getting my novel published the last months. I'll try to get work done on episode six before the week is done though. Can't ignore support like this.
