Synopsis

Despite having never played the sport, short-statured Sakura Shishigaya is dedicated to rugby in every way. After watching the late professional Onotora "The Beast" Itsuki play on the field, Sakura has been inspired to take up the game. However, as the sole member of his middle school's rugby team, he is unable to practice nor experience the sport with other players.

Yet when he encounters Onotora's son Yukito, Sakura seizes the chance to overcome his predicament. Though initially dismissive of Sakura's ability, a quick sparring match manages to impress Yukito. In return, Yukito reveals that he will be attending Hyakkengawa, enticing Sakura to follow suit in hopes of joining the same team. But, when Sakura enrolls into the high school, Yukito is nowhere to be found.

Nevertheless, Sakura believes that Yukito led him to the school for a reason. At Hyakkengawa, the rugby team has been mentored by the one and only Onotora, and, in Sakura, they have met the newest member of their family.

TLDR; Rugby manga with Haikyu vibes
Disclaimer: I give 10's to bump up series that I believe deserve better scores. This series is not a 10.

What you should expect if you read Beast Children:
Oh look it's Hinata
Speedy boy gotta run fast
"I can't really relate to this level of energy, but I'm into it."
"I can't really relate to this level of closet boy love, but I'm into it."
Kinda off-putting art and character design, especially considering how new it is
"When and how did I start feeling things? Oh right it's sports manga"
I just started caring about and remembering the huge amount of characters you dumped on me and ...

After watching some rugby animes like All Out!!, Try Knights and Number24, and as a rugby player, I can completely confirm this is the best rugby story in a manga/anime so far. Its a shame they ended this manga too soon beacuse it had a really big potential, exploring some aspects of rugby, like rugby 7, that other productions didnt even matter to talk a about it. Its true that is has some similarities to Haikyuu, but at this point I think its really hard to create a really good sport story and not founding something similar to Haikyuu, so dont let that idea discourage ...

Preliminary (11/27 eps)
It's still in early days and I can see why it might be a turn off for people cause it's rugby and it's not very well known but I will say it has potential to be great sports manga cause the sport of rugby is very hardcore, people constantly play with injuries and get injuries and it isn't for the faint of heart to play and each chapter gets better and better. You don't need to know how to play rugby cause it will teach ya, give it a chance! Art gets better aswell and the main character is interesting. How does someone go from ...
