The anime series Beastars is currently available on Netflix with two seasons, and Season 3 is already in the works, as announced by the streaming platform.
Beastars, based on the popular manga by Paru Itagaki, was adapted into an anime in 2019 and is exclusively available on Netflix. The second season premiered in summer 2021, and since its conclusion, fans have been wondering if there will be a continuation. The good news: Netflix has already confirmed that season 3 is on the way.
What is Beastars about?
In the world of Beastars, a fragile peace exists between carnivores and herbivores. The gray wolf Legoshi often notices how his herbivore classmates approach him with fear and distrust.
However, behind his sharp claws and intimidating appearance lies a sensitive soul. When his alpaca friend Tem is brutally murdered one day, there is a growing danger that suspicion and prejudice will turn into open hostility and hatred…
Beastars Season 3 confirmed: When is it coming?
The Beastars anime has successfully followed in the footsteps of the manga, producing two seasons so far. A third season has already been announced by Studio Orange, Netflix, and manga creator Paru Itagaki in summer 2021. This season is expected to conclude the series.
The new episodes are set to be released sometime this year, though no specific date has been announced yet. If you can’t wait for season 3, it might be worth reading the Beastars manga by Itagaki. Since the manga tells the story slightly differently from the anime, it could be interesting to experience the plot from the beginning.
To pass the time, you could also check out Beast Complex, a spin-off of Beastars. This manga series, which has been published in Japan since 2016, is set in the same world as Beastars and features a collection of short stories.
