| The episode was good except for the very last part. The ending with Haru was very underwhelming. After all that build up, their relationship feels like it has just amounted to nothing. Also, it seems like the conclusion is missing. Why not show some of the the other characters as well for the last time. It seems like the episode was just cut off before they could wrap it up properly. |
| That final punch was very anti-climatic hahah. It looks like Pina called the police, thanks Pina lol. 6/10 for the anime. Less Haru scenes made this season more watchable. And I liked Louis development as character. I'm going to watch a 3rd season if its announced. |

| Part of me kinda wanted Legosi to deny eating Louis's cursed leg but at least he got Son goku level buff. Pretty great season altough I found the big fight anticlimatic as it was mostly a conversational battle of ideals and I kinda wish we saw more of the aftermath. Still interesting to see the complex characters and the struggles they're dealing with. |
 |
| RIP Ibuki.. a good character nonetheless. Loved the fight between Riz and Legoshi. Lego seemed damn cool when he was looking so buffed after eating deerly meat.. ba dum tss. Hopefully we will get a s3 and see what the future holds for Louis, Lego and Haru. |
| Man I feel so stupid watching this show. I must be missing so many plot details because so many interactions and resolutions make limites sense to me. Why did Louis become the leader of the Shishigumi? Like yeah he killed the boss but why did they make him Boss? Is it like a rule thing? "You killed the boss, you become the boss"? Louis is more reserved in his handling of the day to day of Shishigumi proving ultimately that it was the correct choice to make him the boss. But they couldn't possibly know that at the time. Why did Ibuki attack Louis? The whole show, to me, is a about overcoming prejudice and finding common ground. Ibuki over the couse of the season became such a caring charakter and was sooo great. Why did he "have" to attack Louis? Am I right in assuming that Riz romanticised eating tem to live with the guilt of eating a friend? Because so much of his dialogue just sounding like gibberish to me. I get why nobody called the cops on riz. This story, as many others, relies on characters making unreasonable or illogical choices for the story to work and be entertaining. I can deal with Legoshi being like "I have to take him down myself... for Tem" BUT Pina???? He had no reason not to call the cops. The show says "It's none of my business so I wont interfere".... but come on?? What?? There's a killer in your club that has already eaten one of the club members and you dont call the cops??? Even after he threatened you by almost eating your finger... I just dont get it... ALSO: Way less haru scenes which is a bummer... I wanted to see their relationshsip further explored.... I feel like the first season should've been the murder mystery and the second season should've haru x legoshi. They would've needed to shift some story points around but the story arc of solving tems murder 6 months after the fact is a bit off... Hope someone can help me understand. |

| Beastars is one of the most original shows out there, not only in premise but also in how it plays out. It a breath of fresh air. That being said, this season had many moments that turned me off. Anyway, I am looking forward to what the author has in store for us in the future and beyond beastars. A fine season, 6/10. |

| Great finale involving clash of ideologies that ultimately resolved itself with Riz seeing for himself how carnivores and herbivores can coexist for a mutual benefit. Shame that Legosi has a criminal record despite how justified his actions were Overall this whole Tem Devourer arc was a banger from start to finish, my only complaint is where the heck is Rokume after her introduction to Legosi |
| Interesting sequel I must say, the focus shift here was different than first thought, but I did liked this sequel, so all in all a pretty decent sequel! |
 |
| A bit underwhelming, I would have preferred a better soundtrack and more fighting. Overall, I think an 8.5 for this season. Not as good as the first and it seemed to drag on for a bit, and the soundtrack was mostly reused stuff from season 1. The quality of the animation and the fight choreography was absolutely INSANE though, 10/10 in that respect. I loved how Riz and Tems relationship was reflected in Legoshi and Rouis. |
| I am not a weeb, I simply enjoy 2D girls |
| This episode made me so angry on so many levels. It was stupid, it was rushed, and it ruined any points it had made along the way. Legoshi never needed to fight bear guy, he could have reported him easily, why did he fight him? He even said he could have just reported it but "felt bad". And for all of his training to ultimately be "lol yeah you still gotta eat meat to be strong" EFF YOU SERIES I thought this whole thing was a metaphor for men and women and how men are perfectly capable of overcoming their baser instincts and don't NEED to rape/murder/whatever but LOL NOPE STILL GOTTA EAT DEER LEG. Oh and don't get me started on the glasses lion thing, that was a stupid sacrifice that REALLY DID NOT need to happen. I get what they were going for, but it was poorly and sloppily done and just felt "lol edgy" I say this as someone who REALLY LIKED the series. But eff this episode. Eff it to heck and back. I'm so mad. |
| Really odd Season, i dont know what to think about it. So many dumb decision were made by the characters. I dont think the Problems Riz had were solved in the End. So just alot of sacrifice for him to get arrested anyways lol. I guess if i can take anything from this season as a message is that Logic doesnt always control our behaviour. Also that end so strange why randomly leaving the school without a plan.... |
| I just don't get why he had to eat Louis's leg to beat Riz, then doesn't even beat him??? Riz just sort of gives up because he admires the comradery. What was the point of that? Just go to the police bro. What was the point of this whole season? I don't know how anyone could think this season was better than season one, it had a ton of potential with Riz honestly being a pretty good antagonist until the last episode, but this ending really dropped the ball for me. |
| I don't really get this whole signature thing, but I feel like I need something down here to participate in the trends. |
| Umm for me the ending was a bit meh. Maybe I’m stupid but I didn’t understand why he had to eat Luis’ leg? All that drama just to punch Riz in the tummy and wish him a happy new year. I wished Legoshi remained “clean” and like faithful to his vow and refused to eat Luis’ leg, because in the end it wasn’t that essential for the fight, it ended like 2 seconds later. Then I wished for Riz to realise that killing Tem was wrong and let himself be killed by Legoshi or a scene at the end where Legoshi brings Riz to the panda to go through therapy. I think he was imprisoned and nothing else right? If someone can sincerely explain the meaning of this ending I’ll be grateful. (Overall I liked the first season more, but this wasn’t bad at all, I really enjoyed it) |

| I enjoyed what the show built in like the first 10 episodes of season 1 so much (in terms of world building and conflict) that a good opinion has carried over through the end of this season for me - but, I've gotta say, since then the story has really become subpar... Idk it's just frustrating to watch when Louis becomes head of a crime syndicate... because they need an image rebranding? or let's Legoshi eat his leg... for a fight powerup? when the rest is so good |
| Okay, I'm not going to lie here. Even though the whole idea that Louis-senpai and Legoshi have become better friends now because they've shared their true selves to each other, I couldn't help but appreciate it for the most bit. In my mind, the whole training to become meat-tolerant feels irrelevant now and it was made even more dubious with Riz learning a thing or two from this. Anyway, that aside, it's been a fairly good season overall. I liked the psychological battle between Legoshi and Riz on one end and the happenings in the Shishi-gumi on the other. Not enough Haru though and, that reminds me, not enough for a fulfilling conclusion there in the final few moments of this finale. At least there's a third season to look forward though so hopefully we'll see more of this then. Panda-san is probably still my fav character of the show and Pina has been quite the intriguing addition to the cast. Kaji Yuki-san's a big fan of the series for one so it's nice that he was chosen to be the VA. Kibi and the black cat's little segment was quite touching too. On the music side of things, the ost blended well and both the Op/ED shone, as expected from Yoasobi. VA-wise, Legoshi's nailed it again! Riz's calm voice seriously creeped me out for a bit so that's a plus, I suppose. 7/10 from me. |

| Wow. I'm sad that Ibuki died because I was hoping that he and Louis would co-exist. At least Free was able to keep his end of the bargain by shooting Ibuki if he attacked Louis. I wonder who is going to lead Shi-Shi Gumi now that Louis has left them. I was expecting more from the Riz and Legoshi fight since it was build up to be a fight to the death especially after Louis gave up his leg to give Legoshi more power. Well Legoshi and Riz are labeled as Devour offenders, but Legoshi got released early while Riz stayed behind bars. Legoshi seems to be serious about dropping out of school. I wonder what he's going to do now? Can't wait for Season 3. |

| I ended up feeling like a lot of stuff was cut out of the story? Felt somehow...incomplete. A great watch nonetheless. |

Mamoru Oshii There is a cult of ignorance (...) nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that “my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.” Isaac Asimov |
| straight up, why did Ibuki die? the entire final episode was so disappointing, but this part was the worst for me. there was no buildup to it. like.... why did Louis suddenly want to leave the Shishigumi? because they wouldn't let him go somewhere on New Year's Eve? i know there was foreshadowing in the form of Louis not being able to stomach meat, meaning he wasn't really fit to be their leader forever, but his relationship with the gang was improving and his ideals hadn't really changed that much. i am completely confused as to why Ibuki was suddenly so open to the idea of killing Louis. yes, i understand that Louis can't just walk away peacefully with gang secrets in his mind. but i don't really care about the in-universe reasons. as a piece of a story it was so sudden and so contradictory to everything established before it that it felt random. it felt like something hastily written in to get the author out of a corner she'd written herself into. She created an intensely interesting and suspenseful B-plot by putting Louis in the Shishigumi, but she couldn't figure out how to keep it connected to the A-plot, so she had to abandon ship on it as fast as possible so she could reincorporate Louis into the main cast. all in all, i'd give the season a generous 7/10. i actually really enjoyed most of it, but the crappy ending combined with Haru being written out for almost the whole run really left a bad taste in my mouth. |
 |
| Up until this episode, Beastars was a top tier anime for me. This episode ruined it imo. Basically all of the build-up until now goes down the drain with this episode. Legoshi was going vegan, but no. Legoshi found a loop hole in meat consumption by eating insects, but no. This felt like a crime investigation anime for a while, but no. Legoshi is a pretty civil guy so he could turn the culprit to police, but nooo. The one who found the culprit would be the next beastar, so Legoshi had a chance, but no. Legoshi was gonna marry Hal, but he is a sex offender now, so no. What I liked is, anime started with Legoshi almost eating an animal, and Rouis hurting his leg. And this episode it happens. It is almost as if this was meant to be the final episode. But timely anime endings are a myth that can only be seen in original anime apparently. Instead we got a fuzzy rushed ending and hopes of a sequel is only slim. |
 |
| i really thought louis was asking legoshi to bite off just that part of his skin that said 4 not his whole ass foot. idk, maybe its just me but it felt like such a creepy irreparable damage done to louis, made for a definitely bittersweet ending. But if louis was okay with it i guess that's the only thing that matters, and it also made sense with all of the "respecting the meat you ate by using its strength accordingly" speech. |
| Beautifully rounded up, this felt more like a conclusion to what happened in the first season, I really wonder how things will branch out from here. |
| Having the ending as the opening made this anticlimatic final episode feel more unnecessary, Legoshi was never going to kill Riz but didn't want to turn him to the cops because he wants to do the fight-you-so-it's-kind-of-therapy thing so this whole thing was just a build-up for him to eat meat and to strengthen his bond with Louis-annoying-self and Riz just being like "cool bro". The super saiyajin Legoshi was not good and all this time I thought he was going to send Riz to get help with the panda but nope. Louis became more annoying than Juno and that Ibuki scene felt pointless. Now with Legoshi out of the school I guess most of the supporting characters from the school will became irrelevant? I feel the only thing that interest me now for the third season is what would be of Haru since I can tell Pina is basically secluded to this part of the story and Legoshi now being besties with Louis does not interest me at all. |
| I feel like they rushed certain aspects of this episode to make it fit in the 20ish minutes, it'd have probably been better to have made it 45 minutes instead, either way looking forward to season 3 |
 |
| "QUICK, EAT MY LEG SO YOU CAN.. proceed to still get your ass kicked and do nothing." So basically, magical writer came to the rescue and changed the Bear's mind. THE END -- While we're at it, they really need to learn how to animate the fights. The furry humanoids look so silly when doing regular human motions, awkwardly with the crappy CGI. |
| This didn’t make any sense wtf!! 5/10 |
 |
| While I really enjoyed the ending, I should say it felt a bit rushed. Legosi, after an entire season training to resist meat, eats Louis-sempai's leg. And, ultimately, the bear went to jail for devouring without any further evidence, so why not just call the police in the first place? Still, great show 8/10. |
 |
| I give it a 7. It was good but I feel like there was some inconsistencies in some of the logic and some missing pieces that I assume are in the manga. Like where the heck is that snake character they introduced and why didn't they do anything? I did get kind of a chuckle out of Legoshi powering up from eating Ruis only for his blow to do almost nothing to the bear. I mean at least thats somewhat realistic the size and strength of a bear far outmatches a wolf even a well fed one. Wolves need a pack. I get why the bear stopped fighting though. He sort of realized the way he was going about things was wrong and in the end just didn't want to be lonely. I'm looking forward to seeing how season 3 turns out but I wouldn't be dissapointed if the show just ended here. I think it ended nicely. |
 |
| Hmm maybe i'm a bit bias with this one, especially the ending but ima give it a 8. Still decent season overall and it definitely could've gone better. |
 |
| The ending could have been better but it's fine. 8/10 season. Excited for season 2! |
 |
| hmm can't really blame the standpoint of some haters for considering the ending as underwhelming with many pointless sacrifices being made throughout, I personally enjoyed it and two bad episodes doesn't solely ruin an anime for me. I loved the turning point where Louis turned gangsta and Legoshi drastically changed after solving the murder mystery, the themes became much darker. S1 was too much of a SoL to me and a strange proposal on slut glorification, Haru manipulated Legoshi to the point where I wanted to vomit which is why I'm with the minority who's satisfied with her barely being in S2. My overall enjoyment is forgiving to the last 2 episodes and the character development was beautiful (oh forgot to mention how good the dub is for a new-gen anime) |
| You know somethings bound to happen when they used the ed as the OP On to the episode itself CGI is topnotch as usual and the Legosi vs RIz is fairly intriguing and captivatiing with its action They really took talk no jutsu up and notch with Legosi relaxing after being thrown around literally quite a few times. As expected or it might be cliche Louis appeared just in time to save Legosi. |
