Who is the King of Furry media? You can use specific characters, or entire franchises.
A "furry" here will refer to a humanoid animal, for the purposes of discussion. This includes things that technically don't have fur, such as birds and reptiles. See my examples for what I mean.
Edit: Also, things that would be popularly perceived as an animal. Not things such as flatworms or amoeba. Preemptively adding this due to posts taking my terminology literally in the Furry thread.
Be as opinionated or objective as you want.
Note: Do not post nonconstructive and flaming/trolling comments such as "furries suck" or "I don't like furry games." They will be reported for spam/trolling/the relevant offense. If you're not going to contribute to the topic, go elsewhere.
My personal favorites:
Franchises
1. Sonic the Hedgehog(obvious) - Grew up with this and ever since 2001, I've been a firm fan. Sonic is also probably by far the most recognised animal character, aside from maybe Mickey Mouse. Since Unleashed, his gameplay has also enormously improved as he's been given the quality Classic types have been bawwwing about since the Dreamcast.
2. Crash Bandicoot - Played Warped as a kid, but got a large collection of them recently and have found myself hooked. The gameplay has gotten worse in recent games(I want mah crates!), but that's the trend with nearly all franchises.
3. Onmyou Taisenki - While not technically "furry" as a whole, half the cast is furry. I find it much more fun than Digimon, but I'm saddened it never made it to America. I've watched all 52 episodes with subtitles. I wholly protest that Digimon is in its fifth season while Onmyou Taisenki has been left to gather dust.
Characters
1. Shadow the Hedgehog. Oh yeah baby.
I liked him best in his first appearance. Evil. Rawr. >:3
2. Sonic the Hedgehog. Having given birth to Shadow in some bizarre male pregnancy, he's also fairly high up, being responsible for it all. He is also cool in his own way.
3. King Kazma. From Summer Wars, he's basically the Energizer Bunny after doing too many batteries.
4. Kogenta the White Tiger. The real main character of Onmyou Taisenki. Riku could fall off a cliff and this kitty'd keep the series going as if nothing happened. You know you fail when your secondary character is better than the main one.
5. Scourge the Hedgehog. Has taken Shadow's place as the "Evil double" and serves to be everything Sonic is not to the millionth degree.
6. Crunch Bandicoot. Without getting into the perverted side of things, he has several streaks of awesome ready to be exploited. Unfortunately, he is now voiced like Mr. T, and so has fallen out of favor. He furthermore gets almost no screen time.
7. Crash Bandicoot. While his games have endeared themselves to me, he kind of hasn't. I blame the low intelligence, annoying voice, and completely disgusting habits. Who farts with their armpit, honestly? He may be one of the few characters where Old School fans are not crazy with their demands of "he should not talk! WRYY!"
