Talk:Fox

Move
I set up a move request because "kitsune" is just the Japanese word for "fox", unlike the tanuki, which is a real and distinct species from the raccoon. This was even pointed out on Redd's talk page a decade ago, and it doesn't seem like anything was done about it. Even if there's a mythological aspect to kitsune, for all intents and purposes, Redd doesn't really have any supernatural aspects associated with him. What do you think?

- I'm of the opinion that this should be renamed to Fox. It's absolutely clear that Redd is an actual fox (just like Tom is an actual raccoon-dog), whereas it's not so clear that Kapp'n is a turtle. If we're going to use Japanese names to denote their mythological significance, Tapir should be changed to Baku. Fddcsjxk (talk) 18:30, May 1, 2020 (EDT)
