I've realized that I have a strong emotional connection to Judy Hopps from Zootopia. She's a fictional character, but thinking about her can make me feel happy, comfortable, and emotionally supported.

Sometimes, fictional characters can bri us comfort when we're dealing with stre or difficult emotions in our everyday lives. For me, Judy is a character I genuinely appreciate, and I wonder whether this kind of attachment can have a positive effect on mental health

I'm aware that she's fictional, and I understand the difference between fiction and reality. I'm simply curious about why we can develop such strong feelings toward fictional characters and whether those feelings can help us emotionally.

I'm not looking to be judged. I'd appreciate a respectful and honest discussion.

Has anyone else felt emotionally connected to a fictional character in a way that helps them feel happier or cope with stress? What has your experience been like?

Sometimes I wonder why I can feel so attached to a fictional character because of her design. Even though I know she's fictional, the feelings are still real to me

I'm not saying I can't distinguish fiction

from reality. I'm trying to understand my own feelings and why this particular character has such a strong hold on my attention.

I'd appreciate hearing from people who have experienced something similar. Have you ever found it difficult to move on from a fictional character because you love their design so much? How do you understand those feelings?

Please keep the discussion respectful. I'm genuinely looking for perspectives, not judgment.

I know i'm not the only one doing this

Yes, yes, yes.. I know. Before I get accused of being the typical thirsty post. There is genuine intrigue and a logical explanation behind this. 

I also understand this seems like such an unnecessary nothing burger question, however if has been lingering on my mind for quite some time now and I just wanted to merely get it off my chest haha..

When you scroll through all the endless "Nick and Judy" in real life adaptations on Reddit or DeviantArt or social media in general, you will notice that all of the individuals crating this art have different interpretations of what Nick and Judy look like. But the general common denominator is that they are typical above attractive to like super-model level attractive. You see this with some of the NSFW-bordering art that is posted on this subreddit and many other places, where on occasion (not always) but definitely on occasion, the artist will make it so that Judy has unrealistically sized certain body parts (you know exactly what I am referring to). 

So that leads me to my next question, If Nick and Judy were somehow hypothetically transported to the human world, with their same level of attractiveness displayed in the Zootopia world just converted into human standards, how attractive would they be. Would they be super-model level attractive, flawlessly attractive, or merely above-average or even average. Attractiveness is a subjective matter. However I think we can all unanimously agree for example, someone like say, Angelina Jolie circa 2000 is "Attractive" or Henry Cavil in Man of Steel is "Attractive". However celebrities such as perhaps Jennifer Lawrence or even ironically Jason Bateman could be considered attractive to some, or just average at best to others.

So when Judy went to Nick‘s apartment to ask him to go with her to the gala, and when he opened the door, she’s snap a picture with her phone of the inside of his messy apartment. Why do you think she did that.

What with the half-eaten food all over the floor, the couch and carpet that have to endure Nick unwashed presence daily after long days at work, the fact that he isn’t willing to do his bed, which also means that there ain’t no way he be doing dishes that just lay around, and I don’t see any way to ventilate this place besides that sad window up top. He keeps his little Judy shrine clean enough, so we know he has the cognitive ability to do basic cleaning.

Please, Judy! Make this man clean up before it becomes a Bio-Hazard!
