Kemono Friends Review

Kemono Friends Review

Kemono Friends first made gained attention for its low budget CGI art style, with Japanese social media writing off the series as a kids’ show. However, the anime became a viral sensation after the third episode due to its innocent cast, creative character designs, and mysteriously dark background cues.

Kemono Friends began as a mobile game with characters created by Mine Yoshizaki, who is known for creating Sgt. Frog. The anime was produced by Yaoyorozu and centers around a young girl named Kaban. She wakes up in Japari Park, which is home to animal-girls called Friends. Kaban has no memories of how she got to Japari Park, but with the help of Serval, she sets out on an adventure to find her way home.

A second anime season has been green-lit, but director Tatsuki has said that anime is “a ways off” as they focus on other Kemono Friends projects.
