Why so many CATS?!

[RitsukoSonoda]

I'm glad they are cat-like but more MANLY or whatever. Maybe miqo jones will be rare again when everyone switches to bara cats and bunny buns. >.> Then other people can pat them on the head and not me. Then again.....

Its more difficult to head pat tall people unfortunately :/

What bothers me about Hrothgar is that they have dark clawed hands but... Completely normal feet and toes. Seems mismatched :/

You can;t really call the Mi'qote cats, can you? They're Hyur midlanders with cat accessories, and an amazingly active male adult industry, but they aren't really cats. The Hrothregar, now those are cats. I hope there's a tail option for lion tails for full ronso feel.

You just helped me understand why people keep patting me lol. The animation looks so .. I dunno. But it makes me lol all the time. You job is now to pat all the bara cats. Can you do it?

The only race I can properly pet are potatoes. being a tiny au ra makes even petting Mi'qot hard.

For the question why they are considered a race of man and not beastman I think we may also want to look into why Dwarves who are Lalafel are considered beastman and not man. This leads me to believe that beastman is less based on looks and more based on whether that race follows modern man society norms and I think a big one would be do they worship a primal.

Though Hrothgar are beastly in appearance they most likely have structured their villages and culture in a way that is very similar to other man races and don't worship a primal.

This is also a side thought but all beastman have genders that are near impossible to tell apart from one another. Lalafels basically look the same no matter the gender. Height being the only real distinguish factor between males and females.

Elezen = overgrown Lalas.

Elezen = Tallafel

There's no apostrophe in Hrothgar.


(even if the writers do like sprinkling them into everything they can...)

Miqo'te H'rothgar

Same difference.

Cat people.

I mean it's nice to get a beast race I guess but I was thinking during the reveal 'did it have to be more cats?' Maybe the Hrothgar will have other options too but so far cats seems to be a big part of it.

Lion tail is best tail.

In all seriousness we didn't need another cat race. There are plenty of other animals that would have worked for the same body type as Hrothgar.
