Who are those two? I cannot remember having seen their names around.

Haru (the rabbit) and Legoshi (the wolf) are the main protagonists of a Japanese manga series called "Beastars" that started back in 2016. It's recently been made into an anime series that started broadcasting in 2019.

The story touches on a few similar themes as Zootopia especially the tension of carnivores and herbivores living together in society. However, it tends to go into much more mature and darker story-lines that can be rather screwed up at times.

It's best expressed by post #2185374 and its comments.

why do you keep re-adding the tags zootopia and disney?

I don't see anything in this image that warrants either one copyright tag.

The background architecture in the first panel is highly reminiscent of Zootopia. The wall in the background has the multi-sized entrances like Little Rodentia, there's a commitment to draw large animals to proper scale against smaller animals, the small animals like mice have their own pink highlighted path throughout the park and the stand in panel 3 has the "Niceberg" label and has "organic" written in green lettering with air quotes just like Nick's pawpsicle stand.

While there are no immediately identifiable characters from the Zootopia movie on this page, the artist appears to be making a good faith effort to establish their comic in the Zootopia universe.

Why is there contention about the copyright tag? Does a comic have to feature a character from the source before a copyright tag can be applied?

The comic is called Zootopia: Missing

I'm relatively knew to this site and as far as I understand it the rule "tag what you see" in regards to copyright-tags doesn't warrant Disney or Zootopia tags here.
Yes, the architecture and other artistic decisions look like Zootopia but IMHO neither that nor what name the artist gave his comic is relevant in this regard.

I personally actually don't mind that much because I'm missing quite a few posts related to Zootopia but correctly not tagged as such, which I'd like to see/find with Zootopia.
It is a technicality but eg. the mentioned entrance to Little Rodentia isn't enough in my mind. If "Rodentia" were written on a sign over that entrance I'd see it differently.

Just trying to pinpoint the grey area between "yes - tag it" and "definitely don't tag it".

Not to mention very similar in art style. I thought it looked like it before even looking at the tags

While your argument has technical merit, and one should not tag because of what you don't see, ie no sparkledogs anywhere so it must be Zootopia, but there is another factor to the using of tags which is to aid in searches.
This artist is known to do Zootopian work, and for people like me that only have e621 bookmarked with the Zootopina tag, I would then miss works like this.
There are already a couple of artists here that due to contractural reasons (or similar) do not tag their work Zootopia, even though their work is very clearly inspired by the movie, and I'm left finding these works by accident.
Tagging is a grey area.
