Animal Partners
Several of the characters on the SNK series of Samurai Shodown fighting games are aided by animal friends during gameplay. These animals can be used for attacking purposes, or sometimes other uses, such as improving character's jumps and defense. Poppy becomes playable independently from Galford in Samurai Shodown V; several others (with the exception of Haon) become playable in Samurai Shodown VI.

Famous quotes containing the words animal and/or partners:
“The African race evidently are made to excel in that department which lies between the sensuousness and the intellectual—what we call the elegant arts. These require rich and abundant animal nature, such as they possess; and if ever they become highly civilised, they will excel in music, dancing and elocution.”
—Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811–1896)
“Let’s face it. With the singular exception of breast-feeding, there is nothing about infant care that a mother is innately better qualified to do than a father. Yet we continue to unconsciously perpetuate the myth that men just don’t have what it takes to be true partners in the process.”
—Michael K. Meyerhoff (20th century)
