# Where to Watch Beastars

**Beastars streams on Netflix, and it's a strikingly original coming-of-age drama set in a society of anthropomorphic animals where the line between predator and prey shapes everything. A gentle gray wolf named Legoshi wrestles with his own instincts, and the result is far stranger and more moving than it sounds.**

## Synopsis

At Cherryton Academy, carnivores and herbivores study side by side under an uneasy truce, and a student's death sends a tremor of fear through both. Legoshi, a large and painfully timid gray wolf, finds his carefully suppressed instincts thrown into chaos when he develops feelings for Haru, a tiny, self-possessed rabbit. What unfolds is a moody exploration of desire, identity, prejudice, and self-control, told through expressive stop-motion-inflected animation. It uses its animal cast to say something genuinely thoughtful about the appetites we're taught to hide.
