Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: EMO Pet at 57% against Bitmoji's 21%. EMO Pet also leads on rating (4.2 vs 4.0). Bitmoji's advantage is ratings volume (108K vs 251) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
