Anthropomorphic means, loosely translated, Humanlike. Since there are many humanlike characters in fiction (for obvious reasons), this page is here to make it clearer what the differences between different levels of anthropomorphism are. When people talk about the term "anthropomorphic", they usually refer to an animal, plant, alien, mythical or fantasy creature, robot, inanimate object, or other non-human that acts human or is humanoid in shape. The term "anthropomorphic" is also sometimes used more narrowly to refer to anything "of human shape or form". The pertinent terms are: Anthropomorphic: This general term refers to anything non-human with human characteristics, typically in terms of shape or form. Zoomorphic: This term refers to something of animal shape or form. Anthrozoomorphic: This is the technical term for animals that act human. Note that the differences are often rather ambiguous. Some characters could actually fit into multiple categories. Things can get even weirder when trying to categorize an Animate Inanimate Object on this list. Also see Anthropomorphic Personification, for when abstract concepts are depicted as being human-like characters. |

Catgirls are a sub-trope. The Eastern versions usually just give females the ears and sometimes the tail of whatever animal they supposedly are and males are Beast Men (though of course there might be exceptions), along with a very few defining characteristics and a personality that matches their animal. | |
