Beastars Final Season · review
A masterclass in turning a churned-out deadlined manga adaptation filled with inconsistencies and ass-pulls into a coherent, actually engaging storyline. Opening rivals that of season one and plotline in general surpasses the first two seasons. From a finally consistent tonal shift to gripping decisions that make a mountain out of the mangaka's molehill, Beastars's Final Season (Part One) excites me in ways few other animes have recently. It fixes errors while keeping its foundationally revolutionary message at heart. I adore the choices made and appreciate the additions to increase clarity (Kyuu the boxer; Yahya now being front and center; completely revamping Melon's introduction, etc...) Afew moments I hope they include in the finale: the 701 boys going to B-Strike; Gosha's venom drip through multiple restaurant layers; and ANY scene with Pina please!!! That's all for now darlings, I'll incorporate other snippets I enjoyed as they come.
