A review by ellelainey
BEASTARS, Vol. 2 by Paru Itagaki

4.0

Wow! I thought the rumours about Haru were lies to make her look bad, but they're actually true! And just because Legoshi did something to help her, she stripped and tried to have sex with him...and like a dope, Legoshi is all happy about the fact she saw him not just as a wolf but as a man... Really?!?

The play was interesting and the argument that Legoshi is being self righteous is both fair and unfair. Yes, he is, but claiming he's weak or somehow denying his nature is untrue because he's simply more aware of it and the danger he poses.

I love Louis, with his fragile ego and hidden vulnerability.

While interesting the entire plot of Tem's murder has been ignored, with so much emphasis on Haru and this "inexplicable" draw Legoshi has towards her, that I won't be reading any further. I'm not even remotely interested in her, and in fact can see that Louis is a much better match for Legoshi. If that's not going to happen - and I checked spoilers to make sure - then I'm not reading any more.

4* for potential and art, but it's just not for me, though I can see why it's so popular.
