BEASTARS continues to be a cornerstone of modern manga collections. Set in a world of civilized anthropomorphic animals where a tense divide exists between carnivores and herbivores, the story follows Legoshi, a sensitive gray wolf and member of the Cherryton Academy drama club. After a fellow student is devoured, Legoshi must navigate a society gripped by suspicion while grappling with his growing feelings for Haru, a dwarf rabbit, and his own predatory instincts.
