BEASTARS - Herbivores & Carnivores

I've made an incredible discovery in 2018. And that discovery is a manga series called BEASTARS.

BEASTARS is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Paru Itagaki. The series has won multiple awards, including being the first Akita Shoten title to take home the Manga Taishō Award.

This is also the first manga I've seen that made excellent use of animal characters, allegory and world building for story design. I've made an emotional connection with the characters and story and I felt the need to created a motion-comic out of it as a tribute.

To make it work I invited my trusty voice acting/artist friends to be involved - I made them READ all +100 chapters to get a good sense of the series and naturally their research and investment paid off with incredible performances.

What a delight to have worked on this project, I thank my friends once again for their amazing input - some of the best acting I've heard working from them as we got to explore different aspects of their capabilities.

And finally, this all couldn't have happened without the creator herself - Paru Itakagi. Thank you so much for making BEASTARS exist! Hope you and the fans will enjoy this!
