What to Expect

PremiereLens read

Beastars turns school drama into something brooding and uneasy, with awkward teenage encounters giving way to sudden dread. The murder mystery leaves ordinary contact between carnivore and herbivore classmates shadowed by suspicion. Its moody animation gives the civilized animal world a darker edge, while friendships and theater-club rivalries keep the drama personal rather than purely investigative.

Legoshi’s feelings for Haru make desire difficult to separate from appetite. His quiet, gentle manner does not erase the danger implicit in a wolf growing close to a small rabbit, and his struggle with instinct complicates the romance. Backstage at the drama club, supporting the confident deer Louis offers another contrast between Legoshi’s imposing appearance and his hesitant place among his peers.

Official Premise

The story takes place in a world of modern, civilized, anthropomorphic animals with a cultural divide between the carnivores and herbivores. The series takes its name from the in-universe rank of Beastar, an individual of great talent, service, and notoriety. Legoshi, a large gray wolf, is a timid and quiet student of Cherryton Academy where he lives in a dorm with several other carnivorous students including his outgoing Labrador friend, Jack. As a member of the school's drama club, Legoshi works as a stagehand and supports the actors of the club headed by the star pupil Louis, a red deer. Out of nowhere, Tem the alpaca is brutally murdered and devoured in the night setting a wave of unease and distrust between the herbivore and carnivore students. At the same time, Legoshi has a fateful encounter with Haru, a small dwarf rabbit, and begins developing complex feelings for her.

Why this pick

Beastars balances danger with the tenderness of a complicated romance, and I Want to Love You Till Your Dying Day puts that fragile closeness at the heart of a harsher world. Its girls find small moments of care inside a brutal academy, making the story more openly heartbreaking and bleak.

To Cook a Bear

Disney+ • Oct 15, 2025

CrimeDrama

In the mid-nineteenth century in the village of Kengis, northern Sweden, the body of a shepherd's girl is found in a bog. Soon the villagers set out in search of the killer bear they think is on the rampage.

View show

Why this pick

Beastars turns a murder into a source of suspicion between classmates, while To Cook a Bear lets fear spread through an isolated village. Both keep the mystery close to uneasy faces and wary neighbors, but the Swedish period setting trades school tensions for a slower, colder folk-horror mood.
