A review by rakoerose
BEASTARS, Vol. 1 by Paru Itagaki
4.0
Finally getting around to the manga after watching season one three times, and enjoying the little differences! Paru’s style is so interesting and I love the way they draw all the different animal types.
“I’ll be fine. It’s always been like this. I’m used to being feared and hated. I’ll survive.”
Legoshi’s introversion and struggle to live his own way is super interesting. He’s the total opposite of how others expect or even want him to be. Quiet, caring, and attentive. I almost wonder if the way he fights against his “instincts” is supposed to be a representation of how you think is not as important as how you act? That intrusive thoughts don’t define you?
It’s just interesting! Not to mention Louis and his whole thing makes for a bit of chaos as they clash together.
As an aside, I love the way Paru shows each character’s emotion. Their facial expressions are just so evocative and I find myself chuckling at how extreme they are sometimes. That’s a drama for you! Everything blown up to extremes.
Definitely will be continuing in this series, and I eagerly anticipate more of the anime too!
