Nuevamente hay mucha carga emocional en este volumen, vemos a Legoshi cuestionarse muchas cosas y hacer introspección sobre distintos temas, siento que este volumen giró muy en torno a Legoshi con algunas apariciones especiales de Haru y Louis.

El volumen 3 empieza en donde dejamos el anterior, después de la pelea de Bill y Legoshi en el escenario, el periódico escolar quiere saber qué pasa y entrevistan a Louis, Bill y Legoshi al respecto quiénes deben fingir que todo era parte del espectáculo y había sido premeditado, después nos topamos con la historia de Legom, una gallina que vende huevos en la tienda de la escuela y que Legoshi es su cliente número uno pero no lo sabe para finalmente tener un arco en el que algunos de nuestros carnívoros, Legoshi incluído, deben salir a la ciudad y enfrentarse directamente con su naturaleza carnívora en el mercado clandestino.

Beastars es una historia con una gran profundidad psicológica y tiene una enorme carga emotiva y melancólica, recientemente he descubierto que disfruto de las historias así.

*Review of Volumes 1-3*
Fascinating! Legoshi as a character is so loveably awkward.

At first, I thought the full moon would cause Legoshi to transform into a werewolf or something, but I guess, looking back, that would kind of break the rules of the world.

Just all his interactions with other characters have been so engaging. Well, actually, the second volume, I had a bit of trouble getting through the logistics of putting the play together and just reading about Legoshi all gloomy and anxious. I was just kind of waiting for something major to happen while Legoshi was losing it. There are a lot of things in motion, all centered around Legoshi so it is coherent, but looking back, I do find myself favoring specific interactions and wondering when we'll revisit their relationship. Still, it's not like I'm not engaged in the other storylines, so it's not bothersome at all. Can't wait to see what happens next!

This is just such a good manga. Legoshi’s struggles are such a good allegory for other impulses humans struggle with. I feel so immersed in the world and I adore it.
