Beastars Creator Teases Anime’s Big Final Season

Anime Expo shined a new light on the grand finale for Legosi and his fellow anthropomorphic classmates, revealing that the next season of the anime would arrive this December on Netflix. While the mystery of the murderer stalking the halls of Legosi and Haru has been solved, that doesn’t mean all the anime’s problems have been solved for our heroes. Alongside the release window, Beastars also dropped a new poster, though that’s not all that the anime had to share. Creator Paru Itagaki had a special message for anime fans regarding the anime adaptation’s conclusion.

For those who might not know, manga artistry runs in the family when it comes to Paru’s.

Both anime adaptations have become hits on Netflix though the idea of a crossover featuring the two seems unlikely. Still, Baki and his fellow fighters did recently fight against the brawlers of Kengan Ashura, so it’s not outside the realm of possibility.

With the release in December, I hope you all look forward to it as a special treat to end the year.”
