Basic Trope: Even though humans exist in the setting, the non-humans get much more focus.
- Straight: The story Bob the Dog takes place in a world with both anthropomorphic animals and humans living together. However, Danny is the only main human character, and other human characters generally appear as only background characters.
- Exaggerated: Humans apparently exist in the setting, but aren't even mentioned.
- Downplayed: The animal characters are definitely the main characters, but humans are fairly important in the story as well.
- Justified:
- Bob and the other animals live in a specific part of the town that humans rarely go to.
- The story is some kind of alternate reality where non-humans have become the dominate species, and humans are at least somewhat more rare as a result.
- Inverted: Human-Focused Adaptation
- Subverted: The lack of human focus in Bob the Dog was some Early-Installment Weirdness. Danny and the other human characters later get more importance.
- Double Subverted: But Danny's major appearance was just for A Day in the Limelight.
- Parodied: ???
- Zig-Zagged: Whether or not the story focuses more on animals or humans seems to differ.
- Averted:
- The story explicitly states that it's a World of Funny Animals where no humans exist to begin with.
- Humans and animals get the same amount of focus.
- Enforced: Furries Are Easier to Draw
- Lampshaded: ???
- Invoked: ???
- Exploited: ???
- Defied: ???
- Discussed: "Despite the fact that I know humans exist, I don't usually see 'em around."
- Conversed: ???
