What would you call this body type?
Semi-anthro?
>chest tits (and nothing else)
>plantigrade
>anthropomorphic muzzle to enable human expression
>hands
>bipedal
that is called anthro famalam
>>3155612
This. Anything that isn't a talking animal or a human with animal ears and a tail is anthro.
>>3154973
there are not "semi-anthros" or "anthro-low" creatures, if it behaves like an anthropoid its anthro.
>>3158886
technically if it talks, show some signs of wisdom or human customs it counts as anthro.
About the human with animal ears and/or a tail you are correct, they are also know as hybrids
real animals in the wild dont have a language per se
>>3154973
I call it best taste.
Or, actually, I call it #4, since it's #4 on that one furriness chart with the fox girl or the cat boy.
>>3161629
>or the cat boy.
post this one i'm not sure i've ever seen it senpai
>>3154973
Anthro.
>>3161709
I didn't realize this was rare, it's not on the KYM page or google or anything. Posting a link to my imgur since I'm mobile right now.

oh wow wtf. nvr seen this one somehow
i reverse image searched it though and it returned this e6 link to it:
http://e926.net/post/show/654450
which is only 1 y.o ( posted to e6 May 13, 2015 11:36 PM), and the description says: "Clothed version.
Parody of Bi-Nyo's 'Degrees of Kemono' images"
there's also a bird one by the same artist in the "Degrees of Kemono" pool linked above that i've never seen before, so, posting it after this. Also, your version appaears to've had the original text shooped-out... likely to be more politically-correct for reposting
>>3154973
It's just anthro with fat legs. It's a 3 on this scale >>3161944
4 is more for mimigas and this slut
Where would you put Rita the fox and Rita the cat? They both look like 5, but they'll get up and dance and stuff and look like 4. I don't see feral Pokemon as being anything like them, which would be an obvious 5. Maybe they're 4.5.
>>3162115
i'd put them at 5 because 4 implies chest tits (if they have any) + bipedal
5 seems to imply quadraped +crotchtits/ rows of tits (if they have any)
I have loads of these things
>>3162388
oh, wow, i guess gardevoir is't a human after-all.
idk why i thought she was
need to check her model again
>>3162447
My favorite, it's so true, especially monsterfags
and the one everyone knows, that's my last
>>3162451
beyond the smoothened-out head shape and big eyes she just seems like a human with no nose to me, actually...
but the image does distinguish gardevoir and a human better
Thanks for the input everyone.
What about centaurs etc?
>>3162950
absolutely disgusting
>>3162950
That's a special case. It appears to be a completely feral body with a completely human torso, unmixed like oil and water.
>>3163002
>>3163001
chose a provocative image
>>3163395
I'm still gonna go with like 80% feral and 20% human with strictly separate representation.
>>3162236
How does this chart work ? The higher the number the more anthropomorphic it is?
Also semi anthro is a retarded term.
I feel the term "anthro" is grossly misinterpreted
>>3163596
What would you use then?
Technically anything that's not 100% animal is "anthro" in some capacity, and semi-anthro is just a way of saying "somewhere near the middle of the spectrum"
>>3154973
So who is this slut anyway?

>>3163596
>The higher the number the more anthropomorphic it is?
yes, but as such, inherently even the smallest anthropomorphic trait renders the entire creature "anthro".
>Also semi anthro is a retarded term.
of course. there is no such thing as "semi-anthro". "anthro" is a binary
>>3164590
>"anthro" is binary
Words have meaning based on how they're used.
People understand Nick Wilde is "more anthro" than Simba.
>>3162447
"Kemono" and "western anthro" is all the same shit to me. fuck you.
casual furfag plantigrade OCs everywhere
>>3164661
did you even read my post
>>3164732
Yes, did I miss something?
>>3164712
>is all the same shit to me. fuck you.
Well, not everybody is blind you know.
>>3164747
>>The higher the number the more anthropomorphic it is?
>yes, but as such, inherently even the smallest anthropomorphic trait renders the entire creature "anthro".
I was acknowledging that "anthro" is used as a degree to which a character is saturated with human/ animal characteristics or whatever.
However, I also asserted in the next sentence that the term "semi-anthro" is null since it should be impossible literally-speaking.
"Anthro" means "anthropomorphic". in the context of "semi-anthro", i personally only have ever seen it used in the context of asking if a character is somehow not on the spectrum of anthro. that's not true. it is, hence, it is not "semi-anthro"; it is merely anthro.
It is just acknowledging context to give the contextual answers people seek. When one says Starfox is "more anthro" than a feral fox, you understand what they're saying: they're asserting that Starfox is anthro, and the feral fox is not.
When someone, however, says their OC is "semi-anthro".... no. No, it's not. It's anthro: it is fundamentally anthro as per the detinition of the word. But when that is established, colloquially, depending on your extreme of reference, you may find yourself asserting "Starfox is more anthro than Balto", and people will get what you mean. if you see what i am saying...

quality fookin argument senpai. insert impressed emojis here

found it
wtf is e926?
>>3165075
>wtf is e926?
oh sorry didn't even notice
it is the SFW version of e6... you know... when you want to fap to anthros at work...? i guess
google image results gave the e926 link for whatever reason
>>3164922
Kemono and furries are both mix of humans and animals but Kemono focuses more on the "human part" that's why if you want to convert a normalfag into a furry, you start with kemonos
Pic related it's just an anime girl with a triangle for a nose and cat ears.
>>3165108
And a furry
Of course since the weeabooisation of furries, things are more blurred now with guys like slugbox, skidd, chalo, etc.
Strype found the good equilibrium i think.
>>3164897
Ok, you're splitting hairs for no reason
"semi anthro" "more anthro"... you know what these mean
>>3165108
i realize kemono has a heavy docus on human culture, human bodies, human muscles, human cock and pussy... but i was off-handedly asserting i see it all the same since westerners are on that human stuff too.
pic related. Westerners tend not to totally shrink the muzzle to make it near-indistinguishable from a human face, but they compromise it all the same to enable human expression
this is ignoring the otherwise 100% human body but with added fur and a tail
>>3165159
>Ok, you're splitting hairs for no reason
>"semi anthro" "more anthro"... you know what these mean
The point is with the former it has connotations of an ignoramus not understandint the breadth of "anthro" content, so, you enlighten them as to what it is.
With the latter it is but speech for the sake of expression- no connotatons or ignorance- so you look-past the literal meaning and simply acknowledge what they say
>>3165170
man i've seen some ugly appalling furry characters but that one takes the cake
>>3165665
he's Renard Queenston.
He's the furry OC of a furry music producer who molested a girl in her sleep then created a song called "Rape a Hyena Today" in response to all the controversy and hate he obviously created. And, in that song he used a screaming audio sample of the girl he molested, the same girl whose fursona is a Hyena.
it's good shit famalam ;')
for some reason, all the "Rape a Hyena Today" uploads on yt appear to be gone...
>>3165745
i love furry porn but maybe they need to be exterminated after all
>>3165745
I knew renard was fucked up in the head, but wow.
And aside his 8bit, vidya stuff he makes shit music
Furries aren't really good at music as a whole though, there are exceptions ofc
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQoZdhlSUoE
>>3165797
>they
Implying you're not one of them
>>3165797
lol
there's another furry music produer- "Futret".
he was a good guy, but due to lack of communication with a lover, the lover felt he got raped, and on top of that, Fut game him gomorrhea.
it was really ugly. Fut told his side of the story then soon thereafter wiped all his online presence....
rip Fut. he was the best, to me ;~;
>>3165850
no way i don't have a fursona or any deluded shit
>>3165895
is this a dog?
where r his balls?
>>3165745
I can believe Renard is a terrible roommate and person in general who hasn't made good tunes in 5 years but that sounds like a load of total bollocks.
>>3165953
>but that sounds like a load of total bollocks.
which part? he made the song. you can read-up about it, and the story about the molestation happened in like 2013. You can read-up on both sides of it, i believe.
>>3158886
Depends t b h.
If it's, for example, a character that is not human but has been reinterpreted as human than its a fully anthropomorphic character. You see this a lot in MLP for example. This is using the word anthropomorphic as it is in the dictionary. It just basically translates into adding human traits to non-humans regardless if it's half human half animal. The more human the character is the more anthropomorphic.
It extends to pretty much anything. If you're a dog/cat owner you probably anthropomorphize your pets everyday.
In the context of this thread anthro is used to describe humanoid animals most of the time. I guess in the case of """"semi-anthro"""" is used to describe animal character who are bipedal but not humanoid.
simpler version
