Welcome the Zasaba!
















Spring flowers have appeared all over Shengui Guo and with them, something quite special - the Zasaba! Zasaba eggs hatch around the time of "flower-viewing", and it's said that the one that spots the first hatchling in an area is considered to have great luck for the rest of the year.
Inhabitants of Shengui Guo have raised these insect pets for many years now, and as they were aware of their imminent arrival, were able to work with the Create-A-Pet Center to bring them to you!
Keep a look out for more Zasaba related things this week!
Note: Please keep all comments on the topic of the Zasaba!

Okay, so I am not a big bug person, but the colors on the common are totally gorgeous!!! And I love the aqua. ;A; Tempting. TEMPTING.


Oh my god, one of my favorite critters from the insect world. It makes me absolutely giddy to finally see one of my favorite species as a Subeta pet! Not sure if I have any room for him, but I might dabble and find a pet of mine that I want to change into a Zasaba.




*Here's hoping that you can post links in the news, or else this post will be PAINFUL to look at...
Fantastic!! :D I was worried after the silhouette in the news that it would look too much like the ruki, but this is very much it's own creature and I love it! <3 Cute name too ^_^ Nostalgic of course would be cool as origami, maybe out of coconut or bamboo leaves instead of paper! But it could also be one of those plastic pretend bugs we've all seen/had or some other creative art. This isn't quite origami but still amazing work! I was exploring images and saw versions of praying mantis crafts that were beaded, felted, crocheted, carved, welded, made of legos, even something like this guy. lol
Is there a forum somewhere for ideas because I've got some images to post!!!

OH WOW THE COLORS. THEY LOOK AMAZING (Didn't notice before because my Laptop suuuuucks at color display)

These are cute! Something about the face seems a little off to me, not sure whether it's the eyes or the mouth area but thats just a personal tick. Really nice color scheme for common!


I like how well incorporated the colors are in all the markings! Really shows off the accents of all the basic color schemes
Also I disagree with all the Ruki comparisons: they're similar only in that they're both mantis-based. The Zasaba is more elegant and also retains more of the features that make mantises beautiful and visually interesting, instead of being... some kind of weird alienbugtaur? (The ruki was hideous, tbh.)



ohhh man I want one. im gonna wait until it gets some of the other special colours bc special colours are life. but that dawn is tempting aaa



Yup, it does remind me way too much of a certain other pet, but, like everything else, Subeta's version is better. I'm not gonna jump out and get one right away, but I am excited to see new poses for other colors! Maybe I'll start seeing a Zasaba (super fun name!) when I see a bit of personality shine through. The common color is quite beautiful ♥️

Aww, I've definitely gotta have one of these cuties! Really love the Sun color, and the lil green-tinted wings on Nuclear are a great touch <3 Can't wait to see what this species will look like in some of the other colors!

We asked for insecty-ness and it is provided! :)

My first thought was Ruki, too. I prob won't ever own one but many seem happy about this so that's always a good thing :)
NICE
Twilight and Lilac are probably my favorite out of the default pose colors, but I actually really like the basic color too!
Might wait for the glade version to come out before adopting one of these babies, but it'll definitely happen. ♥️

waits for the elixir / whatever way we'll be able to change a pet into that species
Sod's law that it's released after I fill my final pet slot :P

It figures...I use up the pet slot I saved up for forever and the next day...mantises. headdesk It will only be the next Ice Age before I can afford the next one. But, anyway, these look great. I love mantises and and it's nice to see more bugs :)

Yesss, I'm so glad we have another buggy pet.
Now I just need an elixir.
-crosses fingers-
That Common palette though ♥️

When I first saw the new pet. I instantly thought of a Ruki. I just saw someone post the same thing. I like both though. Can't wait to see Nightmare, Bloodred, and Spectrum versions.
Reminds me of ruki from neopets but looks much better!
Congrats to artist who designed this pretty bug!

The face looks like a feline/canine muzzle (the triangle 'nose' with 2 circles) and I can't unsee it now!!
