For some reason the way the breading on these things looks weirds me out. They look like little newborn rodents or something... Makes me think of the "Poplers" episode of Futurama.

You just made it more appetizing to me by comparing them to popplers. Every time I watch that episode I wish I could enjoy a poppler at fishy joes.... They make it look so good.

Those came to my mind immediately, too!

They look like fried bits of tumors or something. Too round, too smooth. Like those gross cancer pigs in The Outer Worlds.

You're gonna shit your pants if you ever see tempura

Eaten plenty of it. Don't really enjoy the extra smooth way they look compared to more crispy looking tempura and many other frying techniques.
