Rubber Forehead Aliens: Difference between revisions

 

== Anime and Manga ==

** This one ''does'' get [[Justified Trope|justified]], though, in that the Abh are in fact ''genetically altered humans'', who even call their stellar nation the "Humankind Empire Abh" (or a variant, [[Spell My Name with an "S"|depending on how you translate it]]); the Abh see themselves as basically humans with a few different traits, while their (non-modded) enemies tend to see them as vile aliens, wholly different from humanity. One of the narrative thrusts of the work is examining just how human they really are - or aren't.

* ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'' does this with many inhabitants of the magic world; they look like normal people, but with horns or weird shaped ears or something. The rest are [[Petting Zoo People]].

* The Saiyans in [[Dragonball Z]] are pretty much just humans with tails in appearance; that turn into giant monkeys during a full moon.

** They also have fur instead of hair, which is why it doesn't need to be cut.

* Practically all aliens in [[Leijiverse]]. Mazone, Illumidas, Tokarga... they're all basically humans with slightly different skin colour, even the Mazone who are plants. Miime's race is unrevealed, but she's also fully humanoid apart from not having visible mouth in most? story versions.
