Ok, so this is a painful review to write.
So, there will be spoilers. Just a few to set my point.
---
At first, Beastars S2 was an amazing series, it was a show that kept me wanting more. The story was good, the characters and their development of them and the story were amazing, and it would be just way up for the first 8 or 9 episodes. I started this season when it first aired, and to be honest I was willing to give this show a solid 9, as it was well deserved in my opinion. I followed this show excited week after week, and
...
it just kept getting better episode to episode.
But then, the last 4 episodes happened, and, it was bittersweet.
One of the things I loved from Beastars S2, was the fact that the world was the same as the human one, but with the carnivores and herbivores thing (As the obvious anthropomorphic animal society), but then in the last episodes, it was kinda like a shonen series with its comedic touch, as the infamous moth scene happened, I thought it was a one-time thing, so I let it slide.
Then, the next episodes after that, were the same as they were really... meh. Like, they kinda followed the story? But I just didn't feel like I was watching the show with the same quality as the first episodes.
And the last episode happened. It left me so bittersweet about it. I expected a usual epic fight, but what I got was Legoshi getting beat, Louis being the total opposite of what he had been the entire show, which, I mean, it's kinda the point the director or the author wanted to show, but, I don't know, it didn't feel natural. Some scenes were intended to be artistic expressions, but, it felt in total honesty like a yaoi scene (Shishigumi's Louis best friend x Louis in the car, Legoshi x Rizz in the middle of a fight?, and Legoshi x Louis in the top of the train rail), which isn't bad, I don't mind it, but the timing it's not the best.
Even though I'm saying all this, Beastars S2 has a lot of strong points, like the Soundtrack (I have to say, the second OP is better than the S1 one, change my mind), the characters, and the direction. In terms of story, I haven't read the manga yet, so I don't have much to say about it, I don't even know if that's the end of the story, and if it is, I don't know if I'm fine or not about it.
It's a shame this amazing show derailed that bit in the last episodes, but I still recommend watching Beastars if you're looking for something different and good. A solid 7 overall, but the first 8 or 9 episodes are a 9. Not much else to say about it.

Ok, so i've just finished this anime, so i may be in the hit of the moment, but if it wasn't for some episodes that kinda bored me and tell myself that this wasn't going anywhere and that it was a solid 7, i would give this a 10/10.
Spoilers warning. (and personal experiences and probably akwardness coming warning hehe)
So i came with high expectations to this anime, i didn't know anything else about it than that it was about a NEET. With that in mind, and seeing only good things about it, i entered into watching it.
First couple of episodes, great. But then, all
...
the way before episode 13-14 (The off meeting arc), i just wanted to drop it, but i still had faith that it was going somewhere and for something. Then, the off meeting arc happened, and (being kinda personal) i just didn't expect what i was about to see. This entire couple of episodes were a 10 for me. I just couldn't tell what just happened. I never cry with anime, just a couple times (with anohana, death parade, and koe no katachi; which all of them where just tears), but, the scene where the old man reunites with his son, just teared me up like nothing, and i just couldn't help but throw some tears out of my eye.
The following episodes were good, but not as good as the just mentioned. The pyramidal scam episodes were just ok. Like, i did not love either hate it, i just didn't care a lot about it. But then, in the episode where Yamazaki leaves Tokyo, hit me, not as hard to want to tear up, but it was there.
Ever since that episode, things were starting to pick up, every episode seemed like it had a purpose. But in my book, it was still a solid 7.
But then, the last 2 episodes came in. When the ambulance came to pick up Misaki, i just wanted to cry for some reason, i don't know if it was because the suicide topic is a sensitive thing to me because of personal experiences, or just because i was so connected to the characters that i just couldn't help but feel pain for what Misaki was going through.
Then, they get to the mountain thing, Sato obviously making me furious for not making ok decisions and being a jerk (i'll talk about it later) and Misaki at a thin line of dying. The rest of that episode just, i don't know, but, just hit me really hard. Everyone was better. All of this time, wanting things happening, they happened, and better. And just watching as this series ended, those flashbacks at the final credits made me want to tear up, but i holded up.
Then, for some reason i can't explain, when coming here to MAL to make the review, i just started crying. Like, crying like if a dear friend died, or something bad happened to a friend or family member, that kind of crying.
It's the first time it has ever happened to me. Not on anime, but on every media. I just can't explain what happened to me. But the fact that this show managed to get me crying after finishing it, it's amazing.
I would love to give this a 10 because of how many things this show made me feel, but i know i'll regret it later, just like i did with Death Parade, that i gave it an inmediate 10, just to change a couple weeks later.
The characters were incredible, the only one i didn't like was Sato, the main character. Like, i get he is a hikkikomori, but that doesn't give you the right to be such an assh0le to everyone. Everyone wanted to help him, but he just didn't want help because... just because no.
The rest of the characters were pretty solid and i empathized so much with the main ones that i just couldn't help but to feel pain, sadness, happiness and other feeling when something happened to them.
This show i know will be important to me, and i just wanted to delete my memories of it, so i could watch it again, and cry like a little boy for the first time i've done in years.
Thanks for everything, Welcome to the NHK.

Ok, so i've just finished this season. And i must say that i really liked it.
I watched the first season a couple days ago, and i really enjoyed it, but some episodes were kinda boring to me. In this second season, i was really into almost all episodes and fangirled in a lot of scene. It's not much better than the first season, but it's as good to not say Ren was a better show.
So when reading the reviews of this season, i was kinda annoyed to see that people think it should've never existed. It's true that the story is not amazing, but
...
i rarely connect so much with the characters of any series, Chuunibyou made me love every character (except Sophia, let's be honest).
Overall, the thing i most liked was it's characters and the way they develop, i also really liked the main couple of the series, it was really cheesy but for some reason i loved it. The thing that ruined a lot for me was the conclusion, which it does not have. It's like they intended leaving an open ending for a 3rd season, but it has been 6+ years since this series came out, so idk.
Nonetheless, first 6-7 episodes, i give them a solid 8, but that last half, it was kinda meh, and i give them a solid 6. My opinion. I happily approve this series as good.
