There are so many solutions, simple solutions, to this man’s problems that existed already. And he STILL made up this one his damn self. Ngl my boy SERVES.
As Legoshi, Louis, and Haru navigate through their new journey in life, the danger of a heinous criminal lurks around the corner.
BEASTARS Final Season will be released in two parts with Part 1 premiering this year, only on Netflix 🐺🐰
I think that Beastars is the best example of a fantasy media that started out as one explicit metaphor, but the world building itself was so nuanced and rich that it stands alone and very quickly outgrows the original metaphor.
Like Beastars could first be seen as racial and cultural minorities in a mono ethnic Japan, but then there’s the growth suppressants, interspecies families, criminal records, dietary needs, genetic behavioral traits, accessibility in architecture and fashion, environmental needs, and don’t even get me started on ocean characters v land!
And then this metaphor for xenophobia can’t apply anymore, because it’s become so much more!! It’s become a malleable world where every “us v them” issue takes shape. Stigma against felons, disabilities, nature v nurture, racial bias, cultural differences, even how a society addresses scarcity!
Idk if y’all know of other worlds that have this “issue”, but I would be fascinated to hear about them
