First ever post here on MAL! Been lurking forever!

I would just like to comment that if we want to encourage Netflix and Studio Orange to make a 2nd season (not confirmed yet), the Western audience MUST support this show when it comes out on Netflix.

I know that it is unfortunate that Beastars is currently locked into the Japan region and that other audiences are resorting to other methods to watch the show (I'm doing it too).

I am just worried that because many of us have already watched the series by other means that many of us will not contribute to Netflix viewership.

So my quick PSA to you all is to please re-watch this on Netflix to boost viewership and encourage the production of a season 2 (and so forth). Even if you do not feel like watching it again, just have it run in the background while you do other things... We need to support Studio Orange with tangible viewership that makes them money and attractive to Netflix. Watching them on "illegal" sites does nothing to support the series, and while I think it is totally fine to do, fans of the series should take the extra step to support the anime officially.

Anyhow, that is my rant and hopefully not too obvious advice! I seriously dig the show and can't wait for the season 1 finale! Anime of the year for sure!!!

Thanks for the PSA - nice to see that more people are attracted by Beastars to the forums :)

As I've watched some episodes several times already I'll certainly watch them on Netflix. Although I really dislike their release philosophy for anime. Currently anime is such a seasonal model and talk about a show is often strongest in the season it airs.

Of course that doesn't matter to the broader western audience, though I'm not quite sure how well Beastars will appeal to those.

I am certainly watching this again when it comes out on netflix. Ive watched the episodes like more than 10 times already and i dont get tired of it. Also kinda curious to know how they sound like in english. If they will be dubbing it cuz seriously. The seiyuu have done a magnificent job with the voice work here, i cant imagine how the english voice actors can live up to it.

Are there really people who wouldn't feel like rewatching Beastars? Wow ...must be the same ones who hate chocolate.... ;)

BTW. getting a copy of manga or some merch would show support as well ^^
