Human All Along: Difference between revisions

Often, the humans initially appear inhuman because of a [[Baleful Polymorph]], or because of being [[Transhuman Aliens|some form of transhuman]].

== [[Anime and Manga]] ==

* The Jovian lizards in ''[[Nadesico]]'' turned out to be humans.

* This is one of the twists in ''[[Pandorum]]'', the creepy alien mutant cannibals are descended from humans who've evolved to survive in a foodless spaceship over thousands of years. It helped that their ancestors were dosed with a treatment that caused accelerated evolution.

* In ''[[Dragonback]]'', the long-lost original [[The Symbiote|hosts]] of the [[Our Dragons Are Different|K'da]] were called the Dhghem. Turns out that's actually "Human" in a really old language.

* The [[Our Orcs Are Different|koloss]] and [[Face Stealer|kandra]] from ''[[Mistborn]]'' both turned out to be transformed humans.

* In ''[[Rock-a-Doodle]]'', Edmond was a Baleful Polymorph who had been turned into a kitten, but none of the animals really believed him until he turned back into a human at the end of the movie.

* There's one episode of the original ''[[Twilight Zone]]'', titled "The Invaders", where a woman is getting unpleasant visits from tiny alien invaders. But those people turn out to actually be human beings from Earth, and the woman's world is the alien planet, and the alien we've encountered is a humanoid giant.

** An episode of the 1980s ''Twilight Zone'' had this as well: {{spoiler|In one episode titled "Hunted", a group of soldiers were hunting down a monster known as the Kreetor. Turns out that the Kreetor is a human being, and the people we thought were humans are actually robots.}} We also initially assume that "Kreetor" is a linguistic devolution of "Creature". {{spoiler|Turns out it was actually from the word "Creator".}}
