BNA

Now this, this is an anime I enjoyed alot. Another great anime from Studio Trigger! This is one that stays on my mind alot and I think about pretty frequently. Our main character, Michiru, is actually a really likeable lead, and the other MC Shriou is just the grumpy grandpa character but he's likeable too! The other characters are great aswell! In addition to that, the animation is absolutely stunning! I loved watching the visual effects of this, especially as it got better as the show went on!

The plot isn't original by many means, and although the ending isn't all that predictable, it's still a pretty popular plot it follows. However, don't let that put you off!

I love this anime. It gives me huge Zootopia vibes. I'm sure this is an anime fans of Beastars can get behind whilst they wait for Season 2! May I also mention that the dub is also really good? Ben did a great job as Shirou in my opinion!

I really enjoyed it. There were definitely some issues for me with the pacing, especially for the first five or so episodes but it was good. I loved the animation and world and characters. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a new show to binge watch.

Trigger always never seems to disappoint me with their anime. This was a pretty good watch. My only gripe is with Michiru though. It seems that as the series goes on she discovers she is no ordinary beastman because her form (a tanuki) comes with interesting powers (stretching limbs, growing tail, giant ears, etc.), but she never seems to want to learn how to control these abilities in case she gets into danger. Instead she discovers the ability and then act like it dosesn't afterwards.

Other than that, it is a solid watch

BNA was overall a light but enjoyable watch. The animation was stunning and soundtracks were great, but honestly some scenes were oddly mixed with soundtracks, like it didn't exactly fit the mood or was unneccesary at times. Honestly, I would have liked to have seen this take a darker turn or focus more on the dark side of the experiments of Michuru, but it seemed to have been more of a light and friendly theme to the show. Nothing wrong with that, but I think they missed some oppurtunities on diving deeper on some characters/relationships.

It has an interesting and engaging plot, its beautifully drawn and I like the colours. The characters are interesting and compelling.
