Koi always looking weird in any color…

All of this is underwhelming. Although I think the food item is cute.

Aw, come on now. the ribbon outfit is cute too! Just have to see how it plays out on Koi that are not rainbow.

the ribbon outfit is cute

by iloveeevee on May 25, 2023 12:00 PM NST

The colour feels like a bit of a missed opportunity. Wish they'd been a bit more creative with this one and made it look more like a real see-through fish, like a barreleye or something. But then, I'm not a big fan of transparent pets to start with.

Ribbon outfit is pretty cute though. Bet it would look nice on a Toy Koi. Like a piñata.

I love the rainbow ribbon outfit!! Makes the Koi look like the Toy Gnorbu's cousin

^A Fiñata!

Loving the ribbons for Pride Month!

omg the ribbon outfit is super cool! I wish there was a way to make more pets a similar outfit

The ribbon outfit is so pretty! Something like this with big betta fins would look amazing.

It’s almost like they’ve never seen a fish skeleton before

Oh my gosh! Is that ribbon outfit meant to be a Koinobori?! A little late for Children's Day (May 5), but I hope that's what this is.

@powerwingamber
i was thinking of children's day as well, but i feel like we're giving them too much credit for something that's probably just fun party streamers.
i only say that because... wouldn't we get at least some sort of body paint that resembles the carps more? >< (scales and a white belly at least.)

I don't have a Koi, but if I did I would really want that ribbon outfit,m It is so pretty!

by contessa on May 25, 2023 6:51 PM NST

@Rosh
Gracias!

@inkpot

Yeah, you're probably right. I was hoping that maaaybe it could be, though. ^^;

Ah, I'd love to have more koi fish-like colors, though. I guess for now, we could throw the ribbon outfit on a spotted Koi.

Well real fish cannot hold items with their fins unlike Koi in Neopets so needing to have exact image of real life fish isn't really a problem in my opinion

(who, as a fisher, has seen plenty fish skeletons)

Hmm, I guess I'm the only one not loving the ribbon outfit? Then again, it appears I'm just very hard to please, so.. My opinion obviously doesn't count ^^
C-Can we at least agree it's strange for such a colourful outfit to appear at Pigpants and Swolthy? The Neovian tailors specialise in old-fashioned outfits in muted tones. This is.. the opposite of that. Definitely more an outfit one would expect to find at the fabulous Uni's clothing store...

You know the Unis would just be "borrowing" the ribbon pieces to braid into their manes and tails, right?

I like the lamp, and maybe the sail fin, but... the spikes are a bit sharp for hugs. If you attach the spikes with superglue, I guess you could keep the tube in your pocket, in case you or other Pets forget and puncture yourselves.... No waterbeds for the Koi now, sorry!

by breezydreams on May 26, 2023 12:54 AM NST

*sigh* Why did they give the Koi nostril holes? Someone at TNT is aware of how fish breathe right? The regular Koi don't even have nostrils so wth?...

by remy on May 26, 2023 4:12 AM NST

@apophis324: You should see what they're putting in Cog's Togs.

It seems that after a few editorial questions asking TNT to spread wearables around (so Uni's isn't so clogged), they're just picking other random wearable shops for some of them.

Solves the initial problem (good!), but throws the shop theming away (I guess that's bad, but I just don't care about that problem enough in the grand scheme of things!)

by dave on May 26, 2023 10:16 AM NST JN Staff

why do the ribbon whiskers come out by the eyeballs??

by quailbat on May 26, 2023 10:54 AM NST JN Staff

Omg the transparent Koi is giving me some major spooky vibes. Might need to get one for Halloween lol. Love both outfits as well but I know better than to even want them. RSing anything new is dreadful anymore.

by claytonskitten on May 26, 2023 12:42 PM NST

@dave: Time to send in an Editorial question regarding the theming of the stores, so they can get their act together again~! Not that they ever answer my Editorial questions...
