Beastars on Netflix
« on: October 28, 2019, 03:09:42 am »
Anybody else see that it’s soon going to be on Netflix next year? It actually looks really good and the manga is great from what I’ve heard. Netflix Japan already has episodes.  The US won’t be getting any episodes on Netflix till some time next year.  The wait is killing me.

OMG!  :o Why didn't I know about this sooner. Thank You for posting about this! Now this is what an anthropomorphic anime should be like!

Now I'm probably going to have to go find the manga and read it.

Hey this sounds cool!

You’re welcome! I’m super excited for it. It’s an Anthro Anime done right, and the CGI animation is unique and looks awesome. I’m going to try and read the manga before I watch it. I can’t wait for it to stream next year on Netflix which isn’t too faraway.

Yeah the next epsiode will be out December 18. Ive watched all of them and its by far one of my favorite Anime. I'll probably end up ordering the manga since it was sold out at my local Barnes and Noble

well, I just got caught up on the manga too ^_^

will likely buy the DVD sets when available for the anime.

a really fascinating delve into the issues of carnivores and herbivores living together...


A minor warning for some it really delves deep on some topics, and often fairly graphically... I could definitely see some of the things it covers as being difficult for some people to read  ^_^;;

I just finished reading basically all of it online. Once I started reading it I couldn't stop it's pretty addicting and literally sucks you into it. Once merch becomes available in the US I'm defiantly going to yoink some of that.

Honestly I love just how the Manga flows and it's great to watch the Anime then compare it to the Manga. It's almost page for page almost exactly like the Manga. It's cool to see it come to life

I relate the most with Legosi. Yeah I would defiantly say it's a manga not for younger people. It can be a bit disturbing for some.

Didn't wait for it to come to Netflix. Just watched the first 12 eps. Been a fan of Anime for years. But have to say I've never watched a "slice of life" style one before. This work is AMAZING. It reaffirms my general hatred of all things Disney.  Zootopia's message was a good start for the better. But it's ultra clean sticks sweet and shiny bright overall appearance churns my stomach. Beastar is rotten, unfair, dark and gritty. Characters are somewhat unpredictable and sometimes unlikeable. Even morally disgusting. And like any good anime you don't know who's going to live or die. This is the first anime I've seen that makes me want to read the Magna.

I haven't bought any of the manga books yet, but am seriously considering doing so either this week or I'll wait till tax refunds in a few weeks.

For those who have watched any of the anime episodes AND read the manga books, how does the manga differ from the anime, if at all? Or are the manga and the anime both pretty consistant? I'm just wondering how much of a difference there is, if any, between the two.

They tend to keep the accuracy between The Manga and anime very close. They do leave out some things (that I'm not going to mention or spoil). The Anime itself really captures each character as they portray in the manga. Beastars airs worldwide on Netflix March 13. October of this year season 2 is released. The manga is amazing and I recommend reading it. But beware it'll suck you in until you finish it. I got hooked after the first chapter and read through all of them in 2 weeks.

But to answer your question the manga and anime are pretty consistent. I recommend reading the manga first.

This is what I've used to read all the Manga and keep up to date

Thanks for the link Amducious. I will say, without spoilers, the anima takes a few things farther than the manga. However the characters are dead on. Pretty sure i'm going to end up owning both the DVDs and the Manga.

Reading farther into the manga. Yep, this is WAY darker than the anime. I can honestly see why they left some of this out for American TV.  Awesome read and totally recommended for anyone who is interested in the hole story.

I just ordered Book # 1 of Beastars from Amazon. It should arrive sometime this weekend. I am very much looking forward to it. :)

Also, just out of curiosity, I did a Google image search for "Beastars cosplay". The results I found were quite amazing.  :o School uniforms are the most abundant. Legosi and Haru seem to be the two most popular characters. There's even a live-action Beastars play. (See second pic below.).

No problem! Right?! it's pretty impressive how well the keep it accurate. Yeah the manga is pretty dark but I like how real and relatable the characters are. What's nice is that the manga is still ongoing and is updated every week.

Amducious, What i like best is none of the characters are likable. It's like reading a really dark Marvel comic. Everyone has really disturbing problems.

I should have Vol.1 delivered tomorrow. I can hardly wait!  :D I'll probably order Vols.2 and 3 soon, but maybe not until March. I have to save some money for an upcoming model contest first.

I am really liking this series!  :)
I bought and read Vol. 1 manga.
I checked out Vols. 2, 3, and 4 from the library and have read those, but haven't bought them yet.
This series is a bit dark like people have said. Lots of interesting and surprising details about character's backgrounds.  :o
From what I've heard, this series goes on for 17 volumes.  :o Sounds like a series about as big as what Inuyasha was.
I love the way the author pays attention to details in an anthropomorphic world. Seems to be more details in this series than what you'd find in regular furry written fan stories. Details like how the characters act, look, talk, eat, sleep, strengths, weaknesses, and so much more.

I have a friend who may be able to provide me with all 12 Season 1 episodes on Weds. Don't ask me how as I don't even know myself how he was able to pull it off. I just asked if he could get me all 12 episodes and he said he would. We'll see what Weds. brings. ;)  BUT.......I'll still eventually buy the series when it comes out on DVD too in the foreseeable future.

Kobuk. I'm definitely buying this DVD set when it comes out. Really hoping I can get subtitles.

Well Friday this week it'll be available everywhere on Netflix. I'll probably end getting all the Manga just to have it. I just read the new chapter online this week. Yep it's a pretty long series to read Kobuk it's up to 167 chapters as of right now online.

I wonder how long Beastars will go? The Inuyasha manga went for 56 volumes (558 chapters).  :o

Well Paru doesn't plan on stopping anytime soon which is good to hear I'm hoping it goes on for awhile. Also if you're interested there's another manga spinoff related to Beastars that deals with interspecies relationships, Beast Complex. Side note the English voice acting on Netflix is low key kinda bad but not terrible. I prefer the original Japanese over the English dub.

Totally disappointed with the  version of Beastars on Netflix. It's been censored. There is one word that's spoken by Legosi that is so important to the rest of the story. Not only was that word changed but even his reaction to saying it was edited out of the video.  Really was trying to get around everything else. Seeing that was my breaking point. Why do they dumb things down for American audiences?
