What kind of monster boys do you find uncommon in isekai or fantasy?

[CheertheDead]

Just curiosity.

 

[RepresentingWrath]

Monster boys?

 

[CheertheDead]

Monster boys?

Yeah. Like elf, orc, beastman, merfolk, dragonboy, lizardboy...
I am not well-read so I don't know which are underused.

Do they have to be boys?

Oddly enough though, I rarely see catfolk

 

[RepresentingWrath]

Merman.

 

[CheertheDead]

Insectboy

Hmm. Anyone specific?

If you don't want it to be boys then any. I will see how I can twist the rule.

Also I thought catfolks were common sight in fantasy.

Merman.

Hmm.
That's something too. Could be because most novels were taken on land.

 

[Mellohwa]

Centaur-boy. Gnome-boy?

Maybe it's because I've seen too many Kitsune/Wolves

 

[RepresentingWrath]

Girtablilu.

Woke up this morning
Black snake moved in on me

 

[Ellieporter]

A goblin who is well received by the human populace and is serving the King alongside the Hero

 

[atgongumerki]

imo plantoids and insectoids are very rare

also I never seen cephalopod-boy, crab-boy, jellyfish-boy and mollusc-boy (e.g. slugs)

Incubus. The trend towards them is slowly amping up, but they still remain lowkey to this day. This is just my opinion though.

Most of the incubus manga I saw made them into just normal male demon and that's it. Such disappointment.

I'd say the top two would have to be cat-eared boys or nine-tailed fox boys.

It's easy to point to stories that have the girls of those races. I'll see them often enough. It's pretty rare that we have the male gender around and a part of the story. That may be due to me leaning towards reading stories with male protagonists though.

I can sympathize.

Ah. I see.
Now that you mentioned.
Male cat or fox boy are as rare as male calico cat.

It really makes me wonder why.

 

[IDKWtWrite-San]

Insectkin-boy. The last time I see it almost full-human looking is from Re:Monster and after so many other mangas. I didn't find any Insectkin-boi ever since.

 

[AryaX]

Monsters that act the part?
