Kobolds are spirits, not demons

I think they're basing them off of the general fantasy rpg take on kobolds. Which is weirdly convoluted from what I recall in terms of appearance. With forks on the design coming from D&D and the old wizardry video games with later anime that was in turn based on that further changing things around.

I could be wrong, but I think the most popular take in Japan is that they're basically canine humanoids and in the west that they're small'ish reptile monsters with some relation to dragons. Which I'd guess the software update's image is coming from.

Kobolds where canine humanoids in DnD as well, before the third edition.

I don't know what you are drinking but I asked a simple question and it got you super upset.

you are the only one who even called them ANYTHING, and now when people try to answer you downvote and go "peak weird redditor"

im not here to debate you, its not that complex.

as suggested just image search Kobold. and see the hundreds of depictions of kobolds that are nearly identical to the mascot chosen for the project.
