History JustForFun / HappyTreeFriendsTheAnime

Many can be seen here: [[http://www.zerochan.net/Happy+Tree+Friends?s=fav&t=0 Happy Tree Friends]] (you still have to make an account to see all the portrayals). Those who have a Website/{{pixiv}}-account can find even more under the "HTF", "HTF擬人化" (Basically "HTF Humanization") and "ハピツリ" ("Hapitsuri") tags. The characters are human and [[CharacterDevelopment more developed]] than the actual, canon characters, though there is no possible way to join all the interpretations of a character into one.

* HeroesWantRedheads: In general, Flippy and Petunia want Flaky and Handy, respectively.

%%* {{Bishounen}}: Everybody. Cuddles, Toothy, Nutty and Sniffles are the kid version.

%%* DistressedDamsel: Giggles for Splendid.

%%** ThreeAmigos: Even though Splendid and Flippy are rarely ''just'' [[FriendlyEnemy amigos]].

* OutOfCharacter / EvilTwin: Flaky is portrayed as having an evil side / being CuteAndPsycho in [[http://www.zerochan.net/Flaky%2COut+Of+Character?s=fav some pictures]]. Others see it as her evil twin.
** And others see it as her and Flippy's evil daughter, who took the looks after her mother and her father's insanity. This is most probably due to a really popular [[http://www.zerochan.net/Chama artist]] who created some pictures with the [[http://www.zerochan.net/305039 potential]] [[http://www.zerochan.net/336309 spawn]] [[http://www.zerochan.net/759803 of]] [[http://www.zerochan.net/1123752 Flippy and Flaky]].
