What is Kemono Friends?
|
Kemono Friends, also known as KemoFure, is a Japanese multimedia franchise created by Mine Yoshizaki, that focuses on the adventures of anthropomorphized animal girls known simply as Friends. It began as a 2015 mobile game but has expanded into a manga, stage play and wildly successful 2017 anime with multiple new projects planned for the future. While it is a relatively new IP, the franchise has succeeded in making a name for itself on its path to becoming a "series that will last 100 years".
The universe of Kemono Friends, contrary to its innocent appearance, is expansive and complex. It boasts a cast of over 400 characters as well as an intricate and puzzling backstory. What's more, much of the series's media has never seen an official release outside of its native Japan. Our wiki, Japari Library, exists as a resource for the series's English-speaking fanbase. It features translations, detailed analyses of the franchise's lore, and information on Friends and the real creatures from which they came.

Friend of the Week
|
Despite the name suggesting otherwise, the Pademelon is a small marsupial in the kangaroo family native to thick forests in Australia and New Guinea. They're smaller than wallabies at around 50 centimeters long and up to 12 kilograms heavy. They have pointy noses and round ears. They have soft brown fur that's creamy around the belly. As opposed to other kangaroo species, they do not use their tail as a "third leg" because it's too short.
Kemono Friends' Pademelon has only appeared in the Nexon Game. She is a maid and takes her maid duties very seriously. She does not like dirty places and is a good cook.
