Kemono Friends (Japanese: けものフレンズ, Hepburn: Kemono Furenzu, "Beast Friends") is a Japanese video game series and media franchise created by manga artist Mine Yoshizaki. The first project was a mobile game developed by Nexon, which ran from March 2015 to December 2016. A manga by Furai was serialized in Kadokawa's Monthly Shōnen Ace from May 2015 to March 2017. A second game of the series was released by Bushiroad in January 2018. An anime television series produced by Yaoyorozu aired from January to March 2017. A second season by Tomason aired from January to April 2019.

Plot

[edit]

Japari Park is a large zoo, filled with extant, endangered, extinct, cryptids species, and some legendary creatures. Due to a mysterious substance known as "Sandstar", many animals have become anthropomorphized into girls known as Friends (フレンズ, Furenzu).[2]

The manga Kemono Friends: Welcome to Japari Park! follows a park keeper named Nana who looks after the various characters in Japari Park. The manga is set earlier than the rest of the works in the franchise.

In the Nexon mobile game, the park has been closed to visitors due to an outbreak of aggressive and amorphous creatures known as "Ceruleans", which the Friends have to battle with the help of the player and the park guide, Mirai.

In the first season of the anime, which is set sometime after the mobile game, a girl wakes up in Japari Park with no recollection of who she is or how she got there. She encounters a serval Friend, who names the girl "Kaban". Together, they set out on an adventure to find out what kind of animal Kaban is, passing through multiple regions of Japari Park and meeting new friends along the way.

Reception

[edit]

Anime

[edit]

Season one

[edit]

The show's CGI animation initially received criticism for its quality and style. One critic[who?] expressed dissatisfaction on Twitter, stating that he stopped watching the show partway through the first episode. However, the show's popularity grew significantly after the fourth episode.[45] Critical bloggers have considered the show simplistic and repetitive.[46][47] Despite the low production quality, the anime series was praised by some critics and viewers in Japan for its storyline and characters, becoming a cultural phenomenon in the country.[48] Nick Creamer of Anime News Network gave the series an overall grade of B, praising the worldbuilding and criticizing the visual aspects.[49]

The first episode of Kemono Friends received a high number of views on NicoNico Douga. The show surpassed 1 million views by February 5, 5 million views by April 4, and eventually reached a record-breaking 10 million views by August 24.[50]

The opening theme song "Yokoso Japari Park e" rose to 3rd place in the iTunes charts upon release.[51] It was revealed on May 20 that "Yokoso Japari Park e" had reached gold status (sales of 100,000+ in Japan).[52][53]

NHK's news Check 11 reported an increase in the number of zoo visits that might have been inspired by viewers of Kemono Friends.[47] The franchise took part in several promotional events with zoos and other establishments, including displaying boards featuring anthropomorphized animals from the show near real-life animals.

Season two

[edit]

The reception to season two of Kemono Friends among Japanese audiences was mixed. Some criticized the anime for leaving foreshadowed plot points unresolved.[54] Episodes 9 and 12 of Kemono Friends season two received a lot of negative feedback, with the latter becoming the least positively rated anime episode on NicoNico Namahousou at 2.6%.[55][56] Despite the negative reactions, first episode reactions were generally positive, and some viewers liked both seasons.[57]

Controversies

[edit]

Dispute between Kadokawa and Yaoyorozu

[edit]

On September 25, 2017, the director of the anime, Tatsuki, revealed on Twitter that Kadokawa had decided to replace him for the production of the second season. Fan response included immense condemnation of Kadokawa and widespread support of Tatsuki, as Tatsuki is regarded as being a highly instrumental part of the anime's charm and success.[60][61][62][63] Fans left angry comments en masse towards Kadokawa on Niconico Douga's stream of the first episode, with some declaring that they would cancel their Niconico Douga premium membership with the service in response to Tatsuki's firing, as Dwango [Niconico's owner] and Kadokawa are both child companies of Kadokawa Dwango.[64] The Nikkei reported that stock prices for Kadokawa Dwango fell by 3.3% compared to the previous day at the Tokyo Stock Exchange as a result of the news.[65] In the weeks before this incident, animation studio Yaoyorozu had released a free teaser side episode to its fans, pursuant to their agreement with Kadokawa that Yaoyorozu would be allowed full creative freedom in developing Kemono Friends, an agreement made at a time where the Kemono Friends IP appeared to be near worthless, an agreement they wished to change in response to the soaring value of the IP. In response to the controversy, production committee of the Kemono Friends anime announced that director Tatsuki and the animation studio Yaoyorozu had been using the Kemono Friends property on its own without consulting all concerned parties and that Yaoyorozu would not agree to a normalization in communication and withdrew from the project as a result.[66] A September 26 Kemono Friends streaming program on Niconico Douga then featured several voice actresses from the anime publicly apologizing for the ongoing controversy, despite having little connection to the corporate decisions made. This led to further backlash against Kadokawa, with accusations that they had used the actresses to deflect blame from the company itself.[67]

On December 27, 2017, Yoshitada Fukuhara, the animation producer, confirmed that Yaoyorozu would ultimately not go on to produce the second season.[68]

Tatsuki has also claimed on Twitter on September 14, 2018, that he was never paid for his involvement with writing the script, or any of the royalties concerning the anime.[69][70] TV Tokyo's producer for this anime, Nobuyuki Hosoda, responded to fan questions on Twitter stating that he couldn't provide an answer based on the position that he was in.[71][72]

Anime setting and drawing plagiarism allegations

[edit]

Concerns rose among Internet users on February 2, 2018, that the then-upcoming game, Kemono Friends Puzzle Gokko, was plagirizing artwork and setting from the first season of the anime without the consent of Tatsuki. Yoshitada Fukuhara weighed in on this as well, stating that he was never informed of this matter and that he would look in to it.[73][74] 3 weeks later, both the Kemono Friends official Twitter account and later on a press release by the developer of Puzzle Gokko issued an apology for the troubles caused and that any legal issues surrounding such issues were resolved.[75][76][77]

Audition script plagiarism controversy

[edit]

On September 2, 2018, the second season of Kemono Friends was once again announced on their official website and casting calls were published for a new idol unit related to the show. However, it was quickly revealed by the owner of a website called Mezasou! Seiyu that the sample script for the upcoming audition was lifted from the website without the required proper crediting.[78][79] The offending script was taken down the following day,[80] and Eiji Kato, one of the producers of Kemono Friends, offered an apology on Twitter and offered to also apologize to the website owner in person but was turned down.[81][82]

Season 2 producer social media controversy

[edit]

After the end of the second season, TV Tokyo released an apology statement[83][84] in regards to a staff member's behavior on social media and their behavior towards viewers. This apology was thought to be about the season 2 producer, Nobuyuki Hosoya,[85] and later confirmed to be about him by TV Tokyo's Yukio Kawasaki. Hosoya had been accused of making taunting and agitating comments towards critics of Kemono Friends 2 on Twitter and making fun of their comments. Hosoya admitted to his actions being inappropriate.[86] Hosoya was later transferred completely away from anime related work by TV Tokyo, and ultimately leaving TV Tokyo completely, with his name disappearing from all anime he was involved in. Although TV Tokyo claimed it was only part of a regularly planned reshuffle of personnel, he had previously only worked in anime-related work.[87][88]

[edit]

Concerns of misrepresentation were raised by fans on promotional materials for the official Blu-ray discs of Kemono Friends 2. Consumers pointed out that no mentions were made to the fact that the "purchase benefit" listed on promotional materials failed to make mention of the fact that an additional commission was required to apply for such benefits via postal money order, leading to complaints and concerns over whether the production committee breached the "Act against Unjustifiable Premiums and Misleading Representations" (不当景品類及び不当表示防止法). KADOKAWA issued an apology and correction statement on June 7, 2019, on the official website of Kemono Friends 2, stating that the benefits will be free and that anyone who already paid in would be refunded.[89][90]
