History YMMV / IWillSurvive

* AccidentalAesop: Many readers came to the conclusion that we're meant to sympathize with the pro-life Nick over Judy, and that him deciding to break up is supposed to be seen as the right thing to do rather than a DownerEnding. This led to an anti-abortion moral being assigned to the comic despite it not actually taking a stance on the matter.

* UncertainAudience: It is difficult to determine which sector of the Zootopia fandom the comic is aimed at, although the fact that Judy and Nick were promoted to love interests could imply that it was aimed at shippers, the fact that the comic also acts as a Ship Sinking makes it hard to believe that was the target audience.

* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotPolitical: The webcomic wasn’t made to take a stance on abortion. That hasn’t stopped readers from getting into debates over such a stance, however.

* AccidentalAesop: Many readers came to the conclusion that we're meant to sympathize with the pro-life Nick over Judy, and assigned an anti-abortion moral to the comic despite it not taking a stance on the matter.

* CommonKnowledge: This comic is often described as having a [[GoodGirlsAvoidAbortion pro-life message]]. The comic doesn't actually take a stance about whether Judy or Nick is right or wrong, and it's more of a character study than an attempt at moralizing. But because the topic of abortion is so controversial, most stories that deal with the issue tend to be {{Anvilicious}} one way or the other, leading people to assume that Borba was also trying to send a message about it, and it's easy to come to the conclusion that we're meant to sympathize with Nick when Judy loses control of her emotions and physically strikes him. The sequel, ''Webcomic/BornToBeAlive'', tries to address this misconception by making Judy more obviously sympathetic.

* SurprisinglyImprovedSequel: The third comic, ''Never Say Goodbye'', feels less pointlessly edgy than the previous two. It features Nick and Judy both recovering and moving on with their lives, the former leading a scout troop and the second becoming a politician who promotes species equality. They seem to have buried the hatchet and the abortion angle is largely dropped.

* SugarWiki/AwesomeArt: One positive aspect about the comic is that it's at least drawn nicely, on par with Borba's other works.

* {{Narm}}: Nick asks Judy what would have happened if her mother had decided to "interrup her pregnancy." Not only does the story try to dance around the word "abortion," but the fact that the text is in bold draws attention to the glaring typo in an otherwise emotional moment.

* MemeticMutation:
** The comic became a huge meme rather quickly due to its unusual premise and its presentation. The panels where Judy mentions her pregnancy, Nick's reaction, and Judy slapping Nick are especially memetic.

* UncannyValley: Generally, Borba's artwork is nicely drawn and captures the images of Nick and Judy well. However, in some panels, Borba has a tendency to make Judy's lips a little too full and her eyes have too much eyelash which gives Judy the appearance of a rabbit with human eyes and lips.
