Why Beastars is SO Special

[@carlopannone5281]

Season 3 was recently confirmed so Im celebrating by watching this

"even more relatable to me as someone who is gay" what a way to drop the bomb man, also yes, you can't convince me that horse didn't want a Romeo with that juliet

[@smokey8472]

Another perspective for Louis is this: A person who is granted everything people expected them to be in order for them to impact the world in their own eyes but instead the person chooses their own path away from what society normally believes. Lovely video as always, Patrick! ^.^

[@KamuiMiracle]

I really love that you are able to share your perspective on Louis’ character too!

Beastars definitely has a lot more than what's seen at face value. Really unfortunate that people don't give it a chance and miss out on great characters and story!

[@t-dude352]

Yeah! And it annoys that their reason is “oh it’s a furry anime? It’s meant for furries”?!? Which makes zero sense , it’s like saying Hollywood is only for Americans or anime is only for Japanese people!

[@alejandroelluxray5298]

This series certainly is More Than Meets The Eye

[@marchosiasu9700]

As you can probably tell by my profile pic, I feel like Haru is an insanely relatable character to me (and no, i don't mean her sex life). I'm a woman of small, weak posturein a country where rape is normalized and people generally view women as inferior. It's "traditional" way of thinking here. It's not hard to be seen as an object, or, on the contrary as something to feel sorry for. This is why I see so much of myself in Haru. Her struggles resemble the ones I face every day. I always need to look out for danger. There's no way I'm going out alone at night. There always needs to be a strong man to protect me. I squeeze my hand over a pair of keys each time someone passes me because I know that they could kidnap, murder or rape me right on the spot if they chose to. It's sickening, but it can't be helped. Haru's character provides me comfort on that. Beastars in general made me feel less lonely in my struggles and I can't thank Paru Itagaki enough for that. Great vid Patrick, keep up the good work mate!

[@yellow_jacket3260]

What makes Beastars special to me, is, one, I made a bunch of really great friends because of it, and two, I think how Paru explores these anthropomorphic animals reflects in humans too. Everyone carries their own natural instincts with them, and those instincts can cause trouble if not handle correctly. Instead of letting your instincts run you, you should control your own instincts to your advantage

[@airborne_productions2485]

Character work in Beastars is what attracted me to it in the first place. I’ll be honest at first I was incredibly skeptical when I first heard of it. But I’m glad I decided to sit down one night and watch an episode from season 1 which eventually got me to watch the rest of the show and then the manga.

[@thebitten1]

[@catsrgoodp9528]

Take your time on the ibuki video. There’s no rush

[@KamuiMiracle]

Thank you! It will probably be out by either the end of the month or the very beginning of august

[@justawildloa]

Beastars has been the only series where I’ve ever felt connected to more then one character. Other series just..don’t give me that. Yet in Beastars I feel I can relate to so many of them. They aren’t stereotypical characters who share everything about themselves or have a grounded personality and view point. While yeah they have a starting point but then it leaves the readers/viewers to fill the rest in. They feel more human which to me makes me connect with them more. And I love it for that.

[@funker9002]

I think Dorohedoro is similar in that regard. It’s on Netflix as well.

[@GalekC]

[@pierrekk]

Not an anime but try Bojack Horseman

[@lifecanhurt716]

Yesss this show just has a rich story

[@trashfurry7805]

Beastar has had more of an impact on my life then school. It made me rethink stuff and thanks to how the characters are, made me feel more comfortable and come to terms with who I am. This series is very important to me

[@Destiny-bj6vc]

It's amazing to see how their character arcs are written. I love the complexity and the internal and external conflicts we see them go through are incredible! The way this story challenges and develops these character and their beliefs, it's incredible! Thank you so much for making this video!! Also thank you to the voice actors, editors, and to you for making this video possible!!! (also feel free to take as much time as you need to make the Ibuki video!)

[@alicat3974]

The fact that Patrick says this is a quick video before his big Ibuki video when this video is him revisiting an old classic has me pumped for the next one. Great vid as always. It was super fun to do Louis, I always found it hard to relate to the guy until the end of season/arc 1. Louis is a guy trying to push his own insecurities on the world in my mind. Sure he acknowledges they exist but he doesn’t care. For example take the point where Louis confronts Legosi. Louis knows he’s not strong physically, but he chastises Legosi for not utilizing something he doesn’t have (also note how Louis is the stronger one in the scene as he’s overpowering Legosi). Good stories are ones that make you think, great stories are ones that make you create.

[@KamuiMiracle]

You have such a strong point there. Louis really does push his own securities on the world and that can be reflected perfectly within the “Bite me” scene. Also, seriously thank you so much for voicing Louis in this. You are such a great VA and I am so excited to work with you more in the future.

[@Sebastian-bu7oj]

When I watch Beastar content, I am always thinking of Bojack Horseman since it’s also a show about anthropomorphic animals existing with humans and it’s just a really emotional show that is very relatable and realistic.

[@bustertherobotdog]

I love beastars not only is it good and amazing but there's something about it that really makes me love it so much. The way the story is told is one of the greatest, showing different sides of each character like the chicken

[@Frogotron]

Phenomenal video as usual. I feel your channel should be recommended to anyone who enjoys this series, it has enhanced my understanding of it a lot.

[@wesleysilva5482]

Persona music's with bearstars, just perfect, nice video, really good, here in Brazil there's no people talking that precisely about bearstars unfortunately, that's why I end up here, because I feel that bearstars is something really especial, beastars change the way I see the life in a lot of aspects, it is really especial for me, thanks God I know English enough too understand, thanks for the video and for the work, you have my congratulations

[@SpooksTheWitch]

Take as long as you need for the Ibuki video. He’s a very powerful and special character I don’t blame you for wanting to take you time on covering him. Thank you for your hard work! All content from you is great

[@KamuiMiracle]

Thank you so much! I’ve been working on the Ibuki video for awhile now and it is finally going to be done next week. You hit the nail on the head there…”powerful”, that’s exactly the way I want to present his story. This video is very special to me and I am being close to done with production of it. It will probably be out Tuesday of next week.

[@ChibiChidorii]

The characters are so real that you totally empathize with an unreal world but also it's so real that everyone can interpret this world differently just like everyone interprets our world differently

Beastars holds a special place in my heart❤️

[@SparkleDramaQueen93]

U hit the nail on the head! I've tried to get people to watch Beastars & unfortunately I have several friends that can't see past the anthropomorphic animals 🙃 which breaks my heart because of how rich & complex the story is that I'm trying to share I hope more people warm up to Beastars & give it the chance it deserves

[@bryanmerel]

One thing i am certain. Paru made people Simp for anthro while also strongly saying they ain't Furries. XD Also, Piña made people question their sexuality.

[@v4le_50]

I still remember the first time I read Beastars. I just saw the cover from the first volume and bc I love when stories have animals as characters I decided to give it a read, I wasn't expecting much but I was still intrigued and I LOVED IT. Read the whole thing in less than two weeks (which was like, 115 chapters at the time I think), and I really loved how complex all the characters were, along with getting glimpses of how the society worked (that was before the whole whale thing came along and made it confusing lmao)

[@maxbearington7565]

I like how Riz can be all the things he is and not be seen as less then a person. He's my favorite character and I feel like him the most.

[@nathanmurphy7585]

I made a connection to the guy who became my boyfriend through our love of Beastars. For that I need to thank Paru. On the character side I've always felt a deep connection to Louis and Legoshi as someone who, though in small ways, I can't help but affect others around me. At work, although I'm not in charge I have caused change to make the workplace calmer and meeting people's needs.

[@StormWolfHG]

Hey man! Just now started watching you. 👍 My opinion about why Beastars is Special is because I love how it's a human society with animal characters. And the fact that they have human-like bodies and behaviors. It's a pretty good Fanchise and I'm currently still watching Season 2 on Netflix! Hope you're doing well man! Say hi to Elson for me! 🐺😊👍

[@fox9t18]

Why Beastars is so special? It's the only series where I watched season 1 of the anime 7 times, and read the entire manga 3 times lol

[@inplane9970]

I really love how Beastars explores all kinds of relationships, in a comical or serious way. I heavily identify and sympathize with Riz because of his homosexual feelings for someone who is very different from him, but also understands and comforts him. But also having to bottle that uneasy feeling of actually being able to further that relationship beyond the surface level. Being pressured to "be your true self" before it's too late and missing the shot. Having to battle against all odds that society sets, only to fail despite having hope it would work out. It's soul crushing and it really puts a heavy burden on oneself. I'm so glad Riz gets the comfort he needs in the end with the help of Pina, someone who is similar to Tem.

[@Ash-jk5ne]

Hey Kamui. Been a while. A fascinating perspective. Very well put. Although I really wish you had gone for one of the more subtle characters. I suppose it makes sense though. Louis is the clearest example to demonstrate the complexity of Paru’s characterization. While I agree with your character analysis of Yahya, I think that reducing him to an obsessed heartbroken man is a bit….oversimplified. Although you were definitely onto something when you mentioned the lack of positive influences creating cynicism. In my opinion, Gosha means a lot to Yahya. Not as a person, but as an ideal and this is where the relationship falls apart. He has a deep rooted respect and admiration for Gosha’s character but doesn’t respect his agency. In Yahya I see the relentless pursuit of success and happiness in someone with no idea how to achieve it. Someone who yearns to be part of something more intimate/fulfilling. For someone who will be there for you through it all. Yet somehow he always finds himself alone. Devoting himself to the task of being the Beastar is a distraction from an otherwise unfulfilling life. Gosha (and by extension carnivores) act as a trigger for his abandonment issues. Being forced to re-experience that pain even when he re-examines the life he settled for. Carrying on the mission instead of pursuing the path of “selfishness”.

[@KamuiMiracle]

Wow you have really great points! I completely agree with you on them! I kind of ended up oversimplifying to not make the spoiler section too long. In my Yafya Video, I go so much more in-depth with Yafya and I go really deep into every side of his character. But yeah thank you for your input. Not enough people discuss Yafya’s character and it always is nice when i see people trying to analyze his character!

[@Ash-jk5ne]

It’s a pleasure to be heard. Thank you. I have to admit, your passion for the manga is what got me hooked on the story.

[@gowriyaamini]

Portrayal of emotions through these animal characters is a challenge of its own! Those tail wagging, ear twitching, nose scrunching, fur movement...wow just brilliant! We can read into those emotions without the actual words

[@tanchand]

yk, i find Beastars special the same way, the story is told differently from other mangas and animes ik. not only, i read it at a major change in life, and reading/watching it made me feel safe and all. so yea :3

Beastars season 3 just recently announced, Then the first chapter of Itagaki's new manga, SANDA is released! and then this video came out!!! So awssome!!

[@finalfroevo]

I think you really nailed it on why it's special Beastars had a huge impact on my self acceptance and that means a lot. Especially seeing Legosi hiding from the shadows to being himself. What struck with me with the Hidden Condo arc. Legosi having a worn down home and delivery job gave me hope in a weird way. Just being content with myself and life in near future

[@tofutofii3097]

I've been searching for any posts or videos about it but this is the first time I've heard someone comment on Yafya's sexuality. I was surprised since it seemed so clear to me that he perhaps had stronger feelings than friendship for Gosha and from this developed a sort of internalised homophobia projected through hatred of non-traditional interspecies couples and denial of ever feeling love. He brings up homosexuality for no reason in the club with Legoshi. I'll have to read the manga again but super great video!

[@yeetmcgeet9998]

[@Queenlylux]

I Can relate to Haru a lot! & other introverted/loner girls like myself . Being known for being promiscuous ( not anymore because I’m learning to respect myself) & too having a bad reputation & being bullied by other girls by their own boyfriends actions. From not having no sense of self worth. & nobody in my small town wanted to hang with me because of my promiscuity …And/Of feeling like the only way you can be seen as a individual is through your sex addictions .. Yet she’s still a beautiful character despite her actions she Strong.. proud to see a little bit of her growth when she turned down an “date” during the ending of season 2 . I feel like I could see myself in her during S2 because I found a good man that is my childhood friend that seen all my mistakes, He sees me as a person & doesn’t judge my past actions. my husband was shy & timid like legoshi & also grown to be more stronger like legoshi . Neverless like myself & other girls learning to have more boundaries & to love myself. Also Wanted to see more but I still love how they leaned more over to solving the mystery as well. I remember watching this last year during the pandemic 2020, dealing with depression/anxiety this show gave me relatable comfort in legoshi & haru and others . Whoever is the creator is truly an genuinely generous. This is not an shallow show , it has so much depth . It hits spiritually, mentally & emotionally 🤍 Also this mans is the truth thankyou for breaking this down 🤍 #beastarsfan

Yes! I' so happy you mentioned the no-trope part! That's what drew me to it in rhe first place. I rememver starting rhe first epiosde and thinking "oh god, the wolf is probably going to be an edgy asshole who has everyone against him", or seeing Louis and assuming that he's the stereotypical richboy-chickmagnet who's rude for 0 reason. But man, was I wrong. Sure, it's not like it isn't comoletely true, but they'te both SO much more than that and are so complex, the same for every other character. I hope I'll be able to make my own ocs this complex one day

Hey who wants to know more about the humans in the beastar world

[@zooer64]

Why I love Beastars is that it truly could only work in the world it exist in. And for some, that's a bad thing, but for Beastars I truly love how it can only exist within the logics of it'd universe. No where else can a story like this works. It uses the fact these are anthro animals to it's advantage. It isn't just "humans but animals". And I love it for that.

What makes beastars different to me, is the whole story in general. Modernized segregation between animals, in which it relates to the real world almost the same way the past few years have been, makes it really truly stand out. Its sad, but its so interesting to see happen in a world that both is, and isnt our own

[@ReccaWolf]

Yeah, I agree. Good points about the (almost) entire Beastars of cast. Maybe within Beastars Complex that will see Paru making a gay character that’s a small insecure herbivore that’s in love with a carnivore, to show us how insecure closeted people do feel? That would be something to read! Also, I can’t wait to see Beastars Season 3, and waiting to see who voices Melon (dubbed or original, doesn’t matter). lol

Off topic a bit, but who else is a bit worried about how they will handle S3 knowing how the series plays out? They'll probably need a 4th season even if they do cut all the stuff that goes nowhere and unfortunately that would still lead to the ending we got. I'm hoping they might change the ending but, who knows if that'll be amy better.

[@casseroledragon3277]

I love your interpretation of all of this, and it's so true that Peru is a master of "Show don't tell." The only thing I wanna point out is that I think Yafya is bisexual, not gay. He's shown to sleep with women in the comics, but I totally agree with your interpretation of Yafya's love of Gosha.
