More decent world building but the issues are laid bare for me. Yes, Michiru is trying to find a way to turn back human but the show hasn't given us a good enough reason as to why she has to follow Ogami to do this, it seems his goals are completely irrelevant to hers and the story just tries to create scenarios to link their respective objectives and doesn't do a good job of it. Secondly Ogami's scent ability seems a bit too overpowered for me, he can even see events far back into the past, a bit too powerful of a story element and might lead to some ass pulling in the near future.

Seems to be a bioweapon to eliminate humans perhaps?

Michiru looks cuter as a tanuki probably since her weird looking hair in her past human self.

Pretty interesting episode, got a whole lot of clues.

And lol, I like Shirou's way of taking care of other beastmen and what it symbolizes.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

U know that a show is bad with the actions scenes are boring and flat. Cliché after cliché over and over.

Something fishy might come from Sylvasta company and its link with the history of the Animacity. So know Michiru had another ability to long her ears? Weird, lol. I might think there is a genetic change to Michiru and her friend due their changing appear in teenage. Hope in the meantime, i can get more explanations to the story. So far the art and animations are so good to believe this show produced in the middle of the pandemic. The characterization of this show are all nice too. Glad to see they finished the season while another show just got postponed or rather get a difficult situations in its progression. Well played, Trigger Studio.

So obvious that the "big pharma" company is gonna end up being the main villain group the instant Michiru asked what the big building was. I just hope they dont try to turn it into a "big reveal" when its already this obvious. Mayor is probably a ringleader too. The terrorists are just a foil. Placing my bets now. I dont really care for how Trigger is laying out exposition these first few episodes.

It looks like those scientists are behind the reason that Michiru is now a beastman. That evil blonde guy is coming to Anima City, so who knows what he'll do.

I hope Michiru finds her school friend in Anima City since obviously there's a connection there. Them both becoming beast men.

I'm just going through the third episode and it's already one of my favorite anime.
Basically Michiru is a character that many can relate to, and the way they complement Shirou as a father figure is adorable, in a nutshell, perfection.
This episode obviously makes anyone appreciate any character in the series, one of the best moments for me is when Michiru teases Shirou's snout, that was my favorite moment ;)
Sometimes otakus are rejected by society, so I discovered that it is much better to be an

Called the mid-episode plot twist the moment they announced a supposedly up-and-up benevolent pharmaceutical conglomerate, because those are NEVER actually evil and stretchy in anime!

I'm glad it seems like the show knows how obvious that is and is letting the audience in on it fairly quickly instead of expecting us to be shocked by it as a massive twist 6 episodes down the road. It's way more interesting and less patronizing to see how our heroes figure it out.

Bit of a flashback to Michiru and her friend which makes me think that must be some connection to why Michiru was experimented on by the shady Sylvasta Corp.
So far Michiru joins Shirou as sidekick, still bit of a bother (just writing it off for now as payback to Shirou almost locking her up) but I'm sure once she has her body transformations under control she can become pretty amazing.

Damn that Sylvasta pharmaceutical had a role in Michiru's transformation into a beastman.

Also Michiru's friend...Was she hiding that she was a beastman or did she also transform like her!!????? I wanna know more!!

The plot is really interesting and is keeping me hooked. As expected of a Netflix Series!!

The CEO of that big pharma company seems kinda sus. And if this company knows about Michiru, they might know what's going on with her. Shirou must have pretty tough body to fall that far and not die.

This dude has a serious thing for taking away beastmen's manhoods. The symbolism is weird but I like it

Shirou once again going for the horns. This was a great episode setting up for future plot development. Shirou is slowly opening up to Michiru. From what it seems Sylvasta experimented on Michiru and her friend, but why we still don't know. Honestly I have an idea, it could be because Beastmen have been systematically segregated and perhaps this is a plan to turn humans into Beastmen as a revenge plot? Guess I'll find out

I love the story line and characters. Its nice how the backstory is shared at the same time the characters realize it so you don't know anything more than them.

I'm a sucker for 'breaking into big facility' episodes or movies, and this was one done very well. Good stakes, really good pacing, got some more backstory to be interested in; overall a very enjoyable episode.

This is really good so far I'm actually curious about what happened to her friend
was she already a beast man and couldn't control her transformatio, or does she have a similar condition to the female MC Also where did they take her?

Bruh... as always people find characters like Michiru annoying... -_- How dare she not be depressed and obedient, right?
Interesting, so her friend turned into beastman too. Is she the reason (her touch) though?

I still like Michiru but yeah she can be annoying at times... I'm hoping that will change as she integrates and learns more about the world of the beastmen and about thee beastmen themselves

Some Michiru's memories of her human life, apparently she had a friend with the same condition, what happened to her?. Corruption in the medical centre, its chairman, looks like he has something planned. Michiru trying to be useful just put herself on danger and made the mission more difficult by being taken as a hostage and she was able to stretch her arms again, what kind of magic she has?
