How many seasons are there?

Currently, Beastars, which is based on the manga of the same name by Paru Itagaki, only has one season available on Netflix to watch. The anime is up to 12 episodes long, with each episode having a twenty-three-minute long playtime.

Needless to say, the first season managed to wrap itself quite well, leaving viewers yearning for a much-awaited second season.

The crime drama anime show follows the adventures of a timid grey wolf named Legoshi. When a murder takes place on his school campus, unease and distrust forms between the herbivores and carnivore students. At the same time, Legoshi starts to develop complex feelings for Haru, a small dwarf rabbit.

Will there be a season 2 for Beastars?

Simply put, yes. In fact, the anime already has a second season (which aired in Japan earlier this year). The second season premiered from January 2021 to March 2021. The good news is that it will be just as remarkable as the first season, if not more!

While there isn’t an official synopsis for Beastars season 2, the series summary on IMDb reads:

In a world of anthropomorphic animals, a reclusive wolf’s complicated relationship with a kindly rabbit is tested by a classmate’s murder, a charismatic deer’s influence, and his own burgeoning predatory instincts.

We imagine that fans can expect more development in Legoshi and Haru’s relationship in the second instalment.

Beastars Season 2 release date and trailers

The second season will be available to air in July 2021, which is roughly two weeks from now! Admittedly though, being a huge anime enthusiast myself, even these few days can seem rather long and never-ending. However, rest assured, once the anime hits Netflix, viewers will be able to binge the entire show in one sitting.
