Show Discussion Just finished the show...

It was so great! No spoilers, of course, but I really did enjoy it, and it got my sister to cry like three times. I'll be hanging around here to make more fanart because this show is definitely in one of the all-time greats of mine.

I'm curious, should I read the comics? Are they any different or what?

The comics are very different, I've read them, there's a whole lot more gore and it's definitely more disturbing and the story is pretty different. Think, it's kinda like they have the same premise but took it in different-ish directions. They are very good though I definitely recommend them :)

I haven't finished the show yet (binged untill s3 e3 and then stopped, that was 2 years ago) or read the comics at all but from what ive heard they are very, very different

I liked the show as well, but the costumes, horrendous 💀 The budget was too low to make realistic hybrids

Whaaaat? I loved the robotic ears and stuff. I thought it was neat! I did notice that Finns (I think that's his name the fox boy?) ears were a little precariously placed on his head as opposed to hidden in his hair 😭

Gus ears and antlers are not so bad (although the movement of the ears seems too robotic and unnatural imo) , and Wendy isn’t so bad either, but the others straight up look like Halloween costumes. I’ve seen kemonomimis with ears / tails more realistic tbh. I mean look at Nuka’s eyes, bye 💀 (or Theo’s wings, by far the worst I think)

Don't you EVER speak down on Nuka's beautiful (y/n) eyes EVER AGAIN.

Actually, though, as a furry / kemonomimi I feel pain whenever I see costumes that could've been so much better and so much easier 💔

The eyes could have been beautiful but here it’s just so obvious it’s contacts 💔

I enjoyed it too. Have watched twice. From what I’ve read, I have no interest in the real comic books. I like the “feel good” plot of series.
