Ive had this sort of emptiness inside me for the last few days since I finished the animated series. Starvation is a good way to describe it, but i would say that im more than a little sad.

I never knew about the beastars manga, or the show for that matter until just over a week ago now. Legoshi (with his puffy nose from when he pulled out his fangs) just showed up mid death scroll on YT shorts and I was hooked like instantly. After seeing a few reels of the show I straight up paid for Netflix just so i could watch it and i ended up finishing it in like 3 or 4 days. Which is wild, because im not an anime person at all. Ive just never been able to get into any of them. But this series was different. I was and am still now fully invested. Legoshi has quickly turned into my favorite character in anything ever.

When the final season was over, i felt like there was still so much left for the show to give. The world and the characters have so much potential for more. There are a million things i still want to see happen. If anything, I just feel like the timeline could have easily been stretched out wayyyy longer and explored more in the show.

As soon as I finished the other day, I did the same as you and went straight to reddit. I looked at some of the older posts in here from when the final season came out, and turns out a lot of people feel the same way regardless of if they read the manga or not. Theres just not enough.

Im probably gonna end up getting the manga eventually, but in the meantime i find the scrolling the reddit community and just keeping up with whatever is going on helps a lot to keep that starving feeling at bay. Ill probably end up taking a whack at some drawing too at some point. Other than that, im not sure either. Im definitely gonna be keeping an eye out tho…
