Beastars!



***SPOLIERS***

I have officially watched both seasons now of this I loved the first season and could probably do without the second season. The first season was fresh, raunchy, adult rated, and interesting problems that I actually cared about. Overall they made me care which is just good writing and directing. The first season made me sit on the edge of my seat for a nice little Slice of Life with some romance in some comedy in it and like the one with a slight bit of mystery because we're trying to figure out who murdered who which is pretty intense might I say for high school students. After watching the first season I was so excited that they greenlit a second season almost immediately I was ready I thought it was going to be more of the same if not better more character development some cool new plots but instead second season fell short. When I watch the second season I felt uninterested. They didn't nurture the relationship between our main character and his female co-star. Instead of seem like they focus more on our main character becoming more manly and into bro love. He also wasn't eating meat which is very strange for a carnivore because it turned him White, well not really because he's a gray wolf and if you were to shave a gray wolf they be mainly white under. To see Louis which is naturally herbivore was eating meat as well which is strange too. He basically dropped out of high school to run a makeshift lion Yakuza, which was just so left field for me. For him to just completely drop out of school and think that he needed to change the world on the outside and school wasn't helping him do that was just crazy to me. I'm going to assume that Louis is maybe about 18. What makes him think that he can go to a the gang and change the world for the better our main character doesn't do any better either how does him not eating meat and just somewhat trying to befriend all the herbivores make the world better for them. Now I know what you're going to say well he's treating the herbivores with respect yes and no he is depriving himself of his own Instinct his natural habits which hurt himself and if mutual respect is what was needed in this world then now the herbivores are not respecting him. At the end when Louis gave our main character his leg to eat it was mutual respect but I just feel like there were other ways to do that it was almost like the story was telling me mutual respect is actually an herbivore giving itself to its friend and I just don't feel like that was the right point. Now while all this was going on are cute adorable bunny Haru was left out of the entire season most of which I explained was the entire 2nd season. I feel like that's poor writing like you didn't know what story you wanted to tell and got greenlit for an anime that you didn't know it was going to get greenlit for another season. Also what kind of school has security for a snake which is known to be a very sneaky character/creature didn't know who committed the murder until season 2. Actually I don't even think that the security found out Legoshi did and then try to fight a full-on bear which of course he would lose that fight in a heartbeat on top of being malnourished the fight was pointless and stupid. I didn't really care to watch it. It was a losing battle even when he ingested some actual meat via his best friend, Louis he's still got his ass beat. Also why were the police not called. The bear was 18 which makes him an adult. If they follow some semblance of our laws. Now I'm definitely a lover of anime and I really do hope the best for this anime, I think it was rushed out by higher powers like most anime these days. Despite everything I genuinely hope they got greenlit for another season I haven't looked into it yet to see but I hope they do and I hope they take their time and don't rush it so then we don't have plot holes and weird storylines and leave the viewer simply uninterested. I know this artist and director can do better because they've shown me in season 1 so I look forward to whatever might get greenlit in the future for them. Who knows maybe I'm wrong this is definitely an unfinished story and I have an issue with reading what I'm watching I just can't do it I love my manga collection but none of it is what I've already watched except berserk you just have to collect that.




Until next time later nerds
