"Aliens aren't furry"

Are you seriously going to say that when Chewbacca is one of the most well known sci-fi aliens and is a literally walking carpet of floof? And in a similar Star Warsy vein, what about all the Bothans that died to get the Death Star plans before Disney decided to retcon that and say that there was a defector on the engineering team instead?

Anyway, what about servals? As in the adorable spotty leggy jumpy cats that have kinda gone viral in the cat memes scene recently?

[-] frog@beehaw.org 6 points 11 months ago

You know what, I'm gonna agree with this! If we consider original species like Sergals, Protogens, Avali, and Dutch Angel Dragons to count as furry, then logically Wookiees, Bothans, Kzinti, Pokemon, and all other animal-adjacent aliens have to count too. Furry is either restricted just to real world animals, or it includes fictional species as well, whether that's mythological creatures, fandom species, or community-created species.

Being fair, the tier list really deserves an update, might remake this in the future if someone is willing to add a bunch more species to the site.

[-] HarleyAnzuck@pawb.social 1 points 11 months ago

I swear to fucking god I forgot about chewbacca ๐Ÿ’€ And didn't know about Bothans much tbh, but aliens still feel like a different catrgory for me.

As for servals Idk, I think they're cool but I just don't like them very much personally, don't take it too seriously tho, my sona is a fox and I ranked it F anyways.

[-] SloanTheServal@pawb.social 1 points 11 months ago

Even if the alien is straight-up an anthropomorphic animal, like a Caitian from Star Trek?

[-] HarleyAnzuck@pawb.social 1 points 11 months ago

Yeah cuz, like of course it's a furry, but just because it's an anthro cat. Not all aliens are furries and not all furries are aliens.

[-] SloanTheServal@pawb.social 2 points 11 months ago

Not all aliens are furries and not all furries are aliens.

My point is that the inverse is true as well - some aliens can be furries and some furries are aliens. It's just a matter of whether the particular species has animalistic traits or not.

goats are the goat.

SS+ triple platinum tier

[-] frog@beehaw.org 4 points 11 months ago

I'm genuinely perplexed by the fact that Sergals get ranked down because they're "too popular", but Protogens don't.

[-] HarleyAnzuck@pawb.social 2 points 11 months ago

Tbh was hypocritical of me, ngl, the visors just hit some spot for me. And also I put sharks in S tier and a friend also pointed out they're pretty popular too, I'm biased, not gonna pretend I'm not.

[-] frog@beehaw.org 3 points 11 months ago

Nothing wrong with being biased - you like what you like. There's just more to what anyone likes or dislikes than whether it's popular or not. :)

[-] yote_zip@pawb.social 4 points 11 months ago

There's literally so many. Canines, hyenas, kangaroos, raccoons, otters, and bears are S-tier.

[-] HarleyAnzuck@pawb.social 3 points 11 months ago

Depends on the design for me, many sonas are simply S tier~ I even agree that some foxes are S tier and unique, but when ranking each species as a whole is different for me, especially 'cause a lot of uninspired fox designs pull it down to F.

And personal opinion on bears and such, but I don't like baras much. But that's just my taste.

cats and ~~mauses~~ mouses

[-] savvywolf@pawb.social 3 points 11 months ago

In terms of aesthetics, I do love a good sabretoothed cat.

[-] HarleyAnzuck@pawb.social 2 points 11 months ago

FR, if there were sabertoothed on the list they'd be S tier imo.

Sidenote: Just noticed that I didn't link my video, i'm dumb, fixed it
