However, after a series of personal catastrophes (winding up [[OnlyMostlyDead Mostly Dead]], being reactivated with his mind infected by Sentinel programming, getting a big chunk of his memory erased, getting kidnapped by aliens and then abandoned by them without explanation), he has become far more cynical in general and tends to view humanity mainly with disgust.

* Among ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' fans, there is a great deal of content depicting background pony Lyra Heartstrings as being infatuated with humans, in a world where they do not exist. She obsesses over these mythical bipedal creatures to the point of wanting to become one herself, mostly so she can trade in her hooves for hands, even though her unicorn magic[[labelnote:*]]short-range telekinesis that every adult unicorn can use[[/labelnote]] already enables her to handle objects with as much control as hands would allow. This personality is entirely fan-generated, and has its roots in one famous scene from an early episode where she is seen sitting upright on a bench, while every other pony in the series tends to sit on all fours like normal horses (and in particular Bon Bon is sitting right next to her on the same bench with a typical pony posture). That's literally the entire genesis of the whole thing.

Demons are intelligent but also Kantri's mortal enemy. That leaves humanity, and time and again those Kantri who don't simply dislike humans too much to talk quickly become enchanted by one or another, delighted by the smallest exchanges. Exposure to humans also makes Kantri more inclined to think in terms of hours or days as much as months or years, which can be good and bad.

Exposure to humans also makes Kantri more inclined to think in terms of hours or days as much as months or years, which can be good and bad.

* Puro, the black latex wolf beast from VideoGame/{{Changed}} has broken off from his pack's HiveMind due to this. He reads everything and anything he can about humanity and tries to replicate human behavior whenever he can, to the point that he is embarrassed when spotted doing the doggie paddle instead of a more human swimming form. He's a firm believer in HumansAreSpecial and actually has sapience, unlike most of the other latex beasts running around the facility.
