The scene between Legoisi and Haru was funny Both of them were surprised by the others actions. The deer forcing the wolf against the wall was very forceful Poor Louis cannot go anymore

Man, the world-building in this series is so fascinating. Literally can't wait to see more of it.

Another good episode. Legoshi's monologues are quite enjoyable to hear and the dynamic both him and Louis have is a bit odd yet intriguing at the same time. That deer sure is a complex character tho.

AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH I WAS SO DAMN TENSE. I was hoping the show wasn't going to be happening yet. But GOD I was scared watching this... It's part of why I took so long to watch this episode... I felt so damn relieved at the end, even though he fainted, at least he got through the play...

The transition that Legoshi's wagging tail is replaced with the fluttering school banner is kind of cinematic. According to what I found on the Net, that filming technique is called "match cut". As far as I remember, the usage in "2001 space odyssey" was most impressive.

The implied message that links those two subjects in this episode would be "anticipation for the near future", I think.

Nice episode, finally Legosi accepting himself but Louis senpai not, would be expecting for Louis to get help from someone in the next episode because of his condition.

Such nice osts, fits well with the character inner thinking & nice scenery.
Anteater's quite detail perceptive. Along with news club's foreshadowing quite worriesome of future scandals.
Lol Legosi got two kabedons already. Man Louis has good ideals, but way too hard on himself, and mentally locked inside himself.
Theatre club's backstories, and that duality of strength shown by Legosi & louis seems fascinating threads.
...and I miss Stuart Little lol that news club

The slut is so annoying. Louis is far more interesting.

Very interesting episode, especially when it comes to Louis' character.

I wonder why Haru act that way and is Louis gay?

I had that same thought!

Also, I have no idea how to feel about this anime LOL. It’s so well done in terms of animation and voice acting and music and like everything, but I feel like I’m watching a furry porno lmao. It’s like the weird combination of carnivore/prey dynamics plus the rapey undertones?? hoping this is all just in my head

lol the beginning was priceless when the guys found out they were sleeping with the same girl. Also guess the rumors of Haru sleeping around were true and legoshis reaction from being in that situation was pretty funny. So to get into the drama club you ether have to have an odd personality or odd past. The requirement seems odd itself. Deer boy here sure has some issues to deal with and now I understand why there is yaoi of him and legousi. So biology is the animals just chilling in their natural environment?

Hmm some pretty funny moments, I'm surprised Louis was even able to perform I guess his day of reckoning is soon.

I can't wait until The rabbit and the wolf meet again.

Pity you, Legosi. The beginning was really unnecessary. Is Haru really some kind of bitchy? Glad that Legosi stop it before some weird stuff reach its shape. Fortunately, the scenery back to normal daily life activity. What is that Habitat Day? Seems like they had such a homogenic place where all the same species can serve themself in a good manner. Nice plot, there!
Back to the club of drama. Louis insecurity really good to get screened. His inner dialogue gives more time to see the development. Ofc the interaction with Legosi felt nice too for me. Yet, Louis arrogancy comes again as the events gone wild. And he must pay high to all of that shit he do into some kind of an unconscious matter. The club get a troubled. It seems time to Legosi to saved the day!

Interesting....

Just saw it, and its great! i didn't really like louis before this episode, but now i like him more! I also feel kinda bad for Haru :(. Also, because this is the first beastars episode discussion I've done, this OP is amazing! I saw it and I was like: :O, because it's stop motion! I know the anime's in 3d/ 2d (sometimes), and I thought that was super cool! Lol, Beastars is great so far :)!!

Is he dead? Or just sick from his injury? An infection, sepsis?

Interesting how each episode has a flashback. Telling the same story from multiple points of view in an asynchronous timeline. Learning a little more each time.

Is the payoff finding out who ate that classmate in the first episode? Is there something larger at play?

All these students have their own internal demons. It's realistic in that sense.

Well that journalism student can't get Louis photo now..

Damn that scene between Louis and Legoshi was pretty intense 🔥
I like the split screen scene where Louis eyes focus on Legoshi hands...

Legoshi's a saint for having half-naked Haru grab his pants, remove the belt and nearly take them off and have the presence of mind to stop her, wrap cloth around her and run off. But he does realize that she's one of the few people to treat him with comfort, despite him nearly eating her away due to his desires and he's falling slowly for her. Even when the whole school is calling her a slut or a bitch, he still sees her as someone who's comforting and sweet and not anything to do with the actual sexual tension at hand. She was quite charmed a bit by him backing away from that too, makes him different from everyone else who would either bully her or use her sexually due to her frail nature from before.

Louis was also quite the performer on stage despite having an injured leg. It got to him at the very end after the curtain rolled back but still, he gave it his all.

So, apparently, Louis envies Legoshi.

I personally felt really bad for Haru being called a slut by everyone. As for Legosi, his character is pretty amusing so far. That performance animation was sick as well. And also the ED was great.

Another fantastic episode.
It looks like the characters are more animal than human, for instance, how Haru is straight to breeding on a moment's notice given her being a rabbit.

The animals in this world sure got a weird side to them, from Haru making advances to Legoshi to the different backgrounds of the drama club members and also Louis dealing with being born a herbivore but still wanting to be strong

It's pretty interesting to see all these animals acting against their existing nature, with Haru, who looks like a "prey"with her innocent demeanour but she actually sleeps with a lot of guys and is more of a "predator" in that way.(Legoshi doesn't care about that though, and he's totally in love with her). Louis, too loathes the carnivores, as he feels weaker compared to them. Poor guy ended up pushing himself too far, this leading to him falling when the curtains closed.

Louis has some inferiority complex. And it looks like someone will need to replace Louis. I don't think he can perform tomorrow with such a serious injury.

I really liked the mirroring going on between Haru and Legosi, both of them were inclined to devour the other when they first met, just very differently. They also experienced the rejection very differently, Legosi being almost racked with guilt, while Haru was bewildered and even amused by it. I get that eating someone is obviously very different from seducing someone, hence the differing reactions, but you could read some sexual symbolism into the carnivore/herbivore relationships as well.

Cool episode! I loved the little titbits like tiny details in the animation such as Rouis inspecting Legoshi while he's talking, or the little extra scenes like people discussing Haru or the Biology Class scene (the special environments). All the characters are really enjoyable and I can't wait for the second drama piece. Really exiting.

Seems like Louis is a very troubled soul. It's like he's placed this huge burden on his shoulders to be something larger than the herbivore-carnivore roles of their society but you can't fight who and what you are. I can see him heading for a downward spiral.
