THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Those are some dangerous carnivore insincts, holy shit. We also got to see more of the exotic, underworld-like activites in their world.

This episode reinforces how tough the animal world can be when you're not careful. As for Legosi, it seems he's considering his feelings carefully this season as a character.

Things are getting real! Really loved what they did with the OST in terms of changes.
The long awaited kiss scene was handled very well visually and I won't lie, the Jack scene made me cry. Amazing pacing and way more packed with story compared to the meh episode 2 in terms of story, (Roger the gym clothes stealer vs Legosi like cmon). But all and all a really well done adaptation of respective chapters and I can't wait for next episode next week.

pretty decent episode, was really surprised by the start like. wtf was legoshi thinking while he’s getting beaten up and has a cloth over his face and hands tied up lmao. the silhouette of guy beating him up kinda looked like the tiger guy... also, didnt expect to see an animal strip club lmao

Legosi got absolutely fucked at the beginning. I have a feeling that tiger at the club is the culprit. Him and the animal legosi fought looked like they had the same build.

Another banger from Beastars.

They nailed Legosi's fight scene. And as a manga reader, I can say they did a really good job hiding the mysterious silhouette

The culprit was really stupid. What was the point of attacking Legosi but not killing him? If anything they just revealed that they were a big carnivore type. At least now Legosi can eliminate all smaller or equal size carnivores of himself.

Damn, those were some fight scenes b/w Legoshi and the mysterious killer. But luckily, Legoshi might have left at least scars over his body.
And Juno's here to meet Louis.

The moment has come...Tem's assassinator vs. Legosi. In defense and analyzing for now is part-and-parcel to identifying who could be the mysterious killer, but most likely the answer would be enclosed in the manga.

But man...animating THAT French kiss scene? Orange's got the BALLS to keep that scene animated to fruition, and as much as it was uncomfortable in the manga, the anime at least kept it to a watchable degree.

Therapist Master Gouhin of the Black Market is back, and Legosi isn't afraid to be under him this time after that one scuffle the last season. The carnivore strip club though, as long as Louis is under control of the Shishigumi, the Black Market will turn out different than it once used to be.

What is Juno's reason for meeting Louis though?

Rearranging chapters to fit the narrative...I see what you did there.

Can't believe Legoshi actually tasted the culprit's saliva since he can't smell him. And the pole dance part surprised me a little bit ngl. OST used was still amazing. Great episode overall.

Yeah, he was just sending a message, tryna scare legosi away from searching him.

He didn't really get hurt cause legosi didn't bite him, he was literally frenching him to remember the taste of his saliva. he runs away because he's actually a shy boy, no joke

We are slowly learning more about the Black Market. Feel bad for Louis, he doesn’t get a lot of food to eat and has to survive on energy drinks only. Legosi wants to become strong, he also has to find out who attacked him. Also we have young wolf at the front door, why is she here and how!?

I’m liking how Legosi and Louis are starting to parallel each other, with Legosi as a carnivore among herbivores, and Louis as a herbivore among carnivores. Legosi often tries to hide his strength while Louis with his weakness (first his ankle and now with him trying to consume meat). Also Juno what are you doing?

Legoshi got badly beaten and I'm sure it's the same one who killed Tem. The culprit is getting closer and closer. The time will come when the killer reveals his true identity and it will be a lot easier to tell since Legoshi bite that beast with self-defense. Now we have to wait and see >.>

That Cosmo herbivore was sure in a dangerous spot being surrounded by all those carnivores. She got very lucky Louis was there at the right time, and my guesses were right that her co-worker was bullying her for being a herbivore.

Intense episode! Waiting for next week >w<

That was a pretty good episode. A little more furry than I am used too, but I see the point. Cosmo is a pretty interesting character and her profession is a good reflection of her twisted mindset. Legosi is also gonna get training under a bear, so that should help him in catching the killer.

Wouldn’t be smart to kill again at the school, it would just lead to more heavy investigation and also likely there would be some clues to who did it.

Intense episode.

Legoshi being all quiet and out of nothing he gets brutally attacked, how hard is to be an awkwardly shy grey wolf in an antropomorphic school set in a society with tensions remaining between carnivorous and herbivores, kinda funny but pretty thoughtful actually.
He's got absolutely beaten by the murderer, though to be fair he was caught by surprise, and he really ended up bad after that encounter, but at least he might have some more hints about his identity; the farewell between him and Jack shortly after it was emotional, the golden retriever is really a great friend, a shame that now they must take different paths, hopefully Legoshi will really come back; and poor him, what a better way to end the night than getting (seemingly) tortured by the big panda from the black market, his training is gonna be loooong, that was really hilarious.
At first the stripper segment felt a bit weird, great in terms of worldbuilding but completely unattached to the main plot, but at the end it served to give some great characterization to Louis, he's really a mafia leader, his presence alone gives this bad guy feel while still having that charisma of a great businessman, though he's having it hard as the boss, he's getting really into this world but it seems he really doesn't fit in, he's havong big trouble with the meat meals, and he's nervous of his subordinates of finding out, even more now that one did it; I wonder where all of this path through the black market will lead him. And Juno at the end, that reunion will be somthing for sure.

I must concede that the anime adaptation is better at conveying emotions than the original work. Legoshi's beating felt harsher than in the manga. The kiss scene was also even more gross than I had imagined, and I couldn't help but feel worse for Jack than those times when I read that scene.



Anyway, it's a pity that Agata isn't as dark-skinned as he was portrayed in the manga. Also, as a manga reader, I still cannot help but feel that lingering dread due to concerns for the quality of the story. Welp...

Damn Loui living off on energy drinks. Feels bad when when you live among carnivores and can't enjoy meat the same way as them since you've been herbivore all along.

I didn’t even realize that it was a kiss scene until I read the comments. I thought Legosi bit the culprit, so it would be easy to find him out as he’s injured.

I can’t get enough of Ono Yuuki’s voice acting as Louis. Ear candy for sure! Louis has become my main reason to keep watching the series.

The anime is doing so much better than the manga I hope it stays that way with how downhill the manga gets after this arc. The one thing I don't like so far is Agata's model I wish they stuck more to the manga's design of him

This guy who attacked Legosi is definitely not Bill (The Tiger guy), it would be so obvious that it is him. I have a feeling it is someone else...and that figure seemed to be bigger than Bill himself.

They nailed this episode. You could feel the impact of every punch from the culprit onto Legoshi. They also did a really good job with the silhouette to hide the culprits identity.

The dynamic between Louis and Legoshi is becoming increasingly more interesting to me. It's as if Louis is blurring the differences between carnivore and herbivore, and Legoshi is using those differences to help herbivores, but neither can fully contain their animalistic instincts seen by Louis not being able to eat meat and Legoshi's long term struggle with predation.

Such an underrated anime. Love the work that Orange Studio have done with this.

Alongside Attack on Titan, it's been by far and away my favourite of the season so far. Netflix have really prevented this show from getting the exposure it deserves.

The direction and cinematography of this show never ceases to amaze me. There's something alluring about the directing of Studio Orange that makes everything feel a lot more intense from the scene of Legoshi drenching the culprit to remember the saliva and later on bidding adieu to his closemate Jack who recognized how far apart they've grown from each other over the months with Legoshi suffering on the inside without Legoshi himself recognizing those amounts, to even the scenes with Cosmo at the strip club and Louis calling the shots as the guy who runs the Leo Group and the Black Market. All of those scenes felt masterfully paced and directed. Only thing about the season that feels a bit off is the amount of different kinds of scenes for characters that are fit in the same season, making some points feeling a bit all over the place, but the directing and pacing regardless have been really impressive, along with the content too.

If he did kill him the school would be force to take action instead of trying to brush it off. Also, if he was to kill him tension between herbivores and carnivores would diminish something he prolly doesn't want to happen.

No my point is that he shouldn’t have even have come out to attack him. He’s risking way too much by doing that. No one has any idea who did it but now Legosi has a lead.

I only didn't like that flash forward they putted , as it ruined the unpredictable follow of the events .
Except that it's a 9 or 10 representation , almost everything perfectly fitted as it was happening .

If you don't appreciate art , anime aren't for you , there is nothing wrong in them , nothing is perfect !

If you criticize Anime you should release your reviews directly to people and authors that made em !

Anime will not get any better if reviews do not get outside the borders of this website , change this !

Legoshi has really gone off the deep end with his obsession to protect herbivores and hating on carnivores. Also makes sense that Louis literally cannot eat the meat. Now that his in so deep as the boss tho some of the members are actually willing to accommodate him. Of course his traumas are making it very difficult for him to accept...
