The popular and dark anime series Beastars has recently announced an upcoming release of part one of season three on Netflix. It is scheduled to debut on December 5th this year and is also part one of the final season of Beastars. The first episode of season three will likely follow after the final episode of season two, after the situation between Riz and Legoshi. For the fans who have read the manga, the new season will adapt chapters one hundred to roughly one-hundred-ninety-six. These chapters contain the interspecies relations story arc and the love failure arc.
Beastars
Before receiving an anime adaptation, Beastars was a manga series written and illustrated by Paru Itagaki, with genres of comedy, drama, thriller, romance, and mystery. The setting takes place in a world where, instead of humans, anthropomorphic animals live about the same as humans do. There are two main issues and differences: the divide between carnivores and herbivores. Do not let the colorfulness of the cover and bright-looking characters fool you; Beastars has many dark themes and graphic content. There are episodes and chapters on death, fighting, racism, and drama that reflect real life.
Beastars takes place in high school, where the students are divided into predator and prey, still attempting to maintain friendly relationships. In this world, the word Beastar refers to someone who can become a leader in this divided world. The main character is a teenage wolf boy named Legoshi, who becomes suspected by his drama clubmates for murder. This is because the series begins with an herbivore student who was recently killed and eaten, and the carnivores were naturally suspected. Legoshi just so happens to be the unlucky one, as it is unclear whether he really is a gentle, humble soul or his timidness is all an act.
Throughout all this, there is someone who helps him. Moreover, this character, Haru, is there to help him see whether he truly is an in-control person or just as much a beast as any other carnivore. Their relationship is complicated as it borders between predator and prey or possible love interest. While their relationship appears cute at first, they shouldn’t be together biologically since a bunny’s instincts will cause her to push him away. Other characters have also been trying to find a balance for peace. In the Beastars anime adaptation, his mishaps and situations go on for two seasons, with twelve episodes each.

The earliest known clue and non-official confirmations for the final season of Beastars appeared on Netflix’s many social media pages. They all came up on November 5th, showing a sneak peek of the scenes that will happen in the new season and new characters. These new characters will play a big role in answering many of the questions that Legoshi has been struggling with about his identity. Poor Legoshi is shown getting involved in even more difficult situations, getting recruited by an old friend of his grandfather.
Netflix
There are multiple trailers and teasers on Netflix’s YouTube channel for Beastars season three. The earliest official teaser released for the final season was posted seven months ago. This explains why even though more trailers and teasers were released only nine days ago, the first episode is scheduled to premiere on December 5th, 2024. Remember that this is only for the first part of season three. There is no official date for the second part just yet. The good news is that there will only be two parts; the anime adaptation’s final season will not make fans wait that long.
Conclusion
Beastars is a dark manga series by Paru Itagaki that was adapted into mostly CGI anime. It is about a world of anthropomorphic animals dealing with the issue of peace between predator and prey. Legoshi, a giant wolf dealing with high school and this dark world, has been having inner turmoil over his instincts vs his character. Now, after two seasons, part one of the final season will help him gain more progress in processing all of this. The first episode of part one of season three will be released and available on Netflix, ready for all the eager and long-waiting fans.
