    Hate to be the one to break this to you, but the loporrits are NOT new at all. You might want to take a look at previous FF games.

    To wit:

    https://finalfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Loporrit#History

    Loporrits are based on the Hummingways from Final Fantasy IV, being a race of small humanoid rabbits that live on the moon. They most closely resemble the Hummingways' design from the 3D remake version of the game. Some of the Loporrits' names, such as Puddingway and Cheatingway, come from names that Namingway changes his name to in his sidequest in the 3D version. Loporrits also resemble Moogles as they appear in Final Fantasy XII.
    Both Hummingways and Loporrits originate from the Japanese folklore of the "Moon rabbit".

    Moon rabbit, a legend that interprets the markings on the moon as a rabbit grinding a mortar and pestle, in some interpretations the rabbit is using them to mix medicines. One legend says that the rabbit came to arrive in the moon when it threw itself into a fire to feed a starving man, and the man revived it and took it to the heavens to honor it for its generosity.
    They have been part of established lore in the FF universe for a very long time.

    You...didnt know?

    I'm not seeing the part where he claimed they were and Pandaren weren't some new invention that came with MoP either, technically. Unless you... "didn't know" and assumed that was his comparison.
