Alien species that evolved hundreds of lightyears away

>alien species that evolved hundreds of lightyears away
>still evolved to be genetically similar with humans that they can still make babies with them

Why does this trope exist?

Humans and aliens might not be so different after all :^)

Because anime studios don't hire biologists and astrophysicists as consultant.

Realistically, certain elements of anatomy may be universal simply because they're practical. For example we have evolved to stand upright so that our hands are free to hold and manipulate objects.

For rape

And for Romina the
ALIEN PRINCESS

Ninja Senshi Tobikage was a great show, ahead of its time.

Okay aliens can have vaginas and penis. No one is knocking alien sex. There is literally no way a saiyajin and human should make offspring and even worse make fertile offspring. Blacks are the only animals humans can mate with

It's called convergent evolution.

Convergent evolution does not mean the animals can procreate

Prove it.

>implying God didn't create them in His own image

>we have evolved to stand upright so that our hands are free to hold and manipulate objects.
Actually we evolved to stand upright to scout our environment. The first australopithecus lived a sudden change of environment, their jungle became a savana and they couldn't scout it because of the tall grass, only way to do it was to stand upright.

It made sense in MP since the aliens created humans using their own DNA.

Otherwise it's pretty commom for all races in sci-fi to be created by an older race and that's how they usually explain it ( like Protoculture in Macross )

Evolution doesn't happen for some goal. Evolution is arbitrary. Some changes are positively selected because they aid in survival and reproduction, but to say that we "evolved so that" is wrong. There is not a purpose in evolution.

>Evolution doesn't happen for some goal.
Yes but why would you reply to me? I merely stated the (most likely) cause of a change. Does it have something with how I phrased it?

you're retarded

Because FACTORS

And also

NINJA ROBOTS

For the sake of muh dik

I don't think they implied evolution aimed at those goals.

blame Star Trek.
