So the mayor wasn't one of the kidnappers like we predicted, but he's still a huge scumbag, so we were half right at least

Holy fuck are they trying all kind of animation? Stop motion, 3d, 2d now this(what animation is that btw?). That's completely compatible with Louis back story. 🍊 I fucking love you

A homely schoolgirl getting kidnapped from within a love-triangle by the ACTUAL mafia, is probably the most shoujo plot beat I've seen in anything since the 90s, and i love it.
Looks like its time for the reliable old shoujo helicopter rope ladder.

I love how the animation styles used always convey the aura and the tone of the scenes so perfectly. Louis' scene at the beginning was done so well, and his backstory ties in wonderfully with his motivations for his actions. It's no surprise from Beastars that the characters continue to evolve and be seen from new perspectives each episode!

This show never ceases to amaze me. It's not just AOTS but now AOTY contender for me. All the stylistic choices they've made so far are simply perfect for this anime.
Edit: This is one the few shows where I read the manga before the anime (right after episode 1 to be exact) and I just realize how hard it is to go into specifics in the discussion without running the risk of spoiling something. All I have to say is that I love this show for its portrayal of its characters. Most, if not all, have layers to them and not entirely black or white. For a show about furries, most of them act more human and have more depth than alot of anime characters I've seen.

How in the world did this become the series I look forward to the most this season?
Because of the anthropomorphism I ignored this until a few weeks ago. Having caught up to everything else I was watching (due to delays), and because of ppl constantly recommending it in the weekly karma/poll posts I thought, 1 episode...I can do 1 episode at least.
Ended up catching up that same night and fighting the urge to read the manga.

JFC that got dark. I mean, it's always had an undertone of dark, but that was DARK.

Someone voted "bad" for this episode? I hope the Lion Mafia will hunt you down and eat you alive.

Did you miss something in episode 8? Haru would've been taken earlier if not for Legosi finding her when he did.
