#BEASTARS Season 2 Gets July 15 Global Release Date

Netflix Anime revealed a new English-subtitled trailer for Beastars season 2 featuring the opening theme song “MONSTER” by YOASOBI. The trailer also reveals the season’s July 15 international release date.

Beastars is based on the manga by Paru Itagaki. The manga launched in Weekly Shōnen Champion in September 2016 and ended on October 8, 2020. The anime’s first season premiered in October 2019, while the second season premiered on January 5, 2021 via Netflix Japan.

Viz Media publishes the manga in English and describes the story as:

At a high school where the students are literally divided into predators and prey, it’s personal relationships that maintain the fragile peace. Who among them is a Beastar—an academic and social role model destined to become a leader in a society naturally rife with mistrust?

Last night at Cherryton Academy, an herbivore student was killed and eaten. Among the members of the drama club, the herbivores’ suspicions naturally turn to their carnivore classmates… The prime suspect? Legoshi, a large wolf. But he wouldn’t hurt a fly—or would he? And will dwarf rabbit Haru bring out the beast in him? Or are his feelings for her…something else?
