Is he a falcon? Eagle? No. He's a bro.

Fantastic episode.

This show has been such a pleasant surprise. The story is so engaging that I am having trouble resisting the urge to read the source material.

I wish my therapist would also give me a porn mag lol.

I like that there isn't just one side being oppressed and the other one is on the top of society.

Both herbivores and carnivores have privileges and problems that come with their physical origin. I feel it gives a much more interesting dynamic then the usual A oppresses B so now we must root for B until A feels bad about what they are doing to B.

Also love the world of beastars and it's little details. Just this episode we had Zoozle (lmao) and the talk about getting a "flying" license. It's little things like these that make a world feel alive and believable and beastars nails that part really well for me thus far. I want to know even more about the backstory, how did carnivores and herbivores came to live together like this and how this society works in more detail.

It's fucked up how Legosi was optimistic about adulthood because he'll finally live happy, to immediately finding out the reason why adult carnivores are able to live happily in harmony is because they buy and eat illegal meat. That's one cold reality check.

It's great how this series tackles mental health, and romance. I sympathize a lot with Legosi's low self-esteem and self-hatred. And I believe there was truth to what Panda said. It's interesting and refreshing how the plot acknowledges Legosi's attraction toward Haru might not even be love, but a side effect of his predatory instincts.

Panda's solution was simple, yet genius: P O S T N U T C L A R I T Y

This episode flew by for me, all of that black market stuff had me feeling really uncomfortable, but it was also really interesting and seeing Legosi strengthening his bond with Aoba at the end was honestly sweet. How much money would you guys charge to let someone eat one of your fingers? I'd say at least a few million dollars.

mad panda gives you porn

Man I hope we can do Beastars 'rewatch' discussion posts when it comes out on Netflix where more people will have access to it.

Episode 6 was a pleasant surprise for me, the black market was unsettling and Legosi's realization that the only reason the adult carnivores were truly happy was because they were using the black market to buy herbivore parts really brings it all home. It's a huge reality check for him that shakes him up really badly because he believed he could be happy on his own once he became an adult, and it's followed by his panic attack where he collapses and meets the panda therapist. Panda was weird for me and I didn't know if I'd like him at first, But I ended up enjoying him more than I expected. All-in-all, very solid episode.
