This e-copy was kindly provided to me by Netgalley and the publisher for review. All opinions are my own.

My love for this manga continues. A bit darker than the last volume but the Beastars' nasty little secret was a fun reveal in this volume. I loved the side story included with Legoshi getting together with his pack of friends from school, it actually had me laughing out loud. A fun story that I recommend to anyone interested in it.

Reading the manga makes me want to jump back into the show so much.

Thank you to NetGalley, VIZ Media, and Paru Itagaki for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for an honest review.

This is an AMAZING volume. A lot of different events and scenarios happen and it is a never-ending rush of excitement.

Legoshi meets the BEASTAR, but he doesn't know the connection of why he was summoned. He also make an interesting sacrifice. There's a glimpse of Haru's college life. Haru and Legoishi go in a date, of sorts, and much is revealed about what Legoshi has been up to since leaving high school. Legoshi spends time with his friends before they begin their busy senior year. And an interesting hybrid animal is revealed (like how Legoshi is not only wolf, but something else). These hybrids are meant to be rare or implausible even, but they do happen, though Legoshi didn't inherit any outward aspects from his grandfather...

What a great volume! Only a few more to go and the series is over. How will it end? I can't wait to read the next installment in this series, especially if the pacing is anything like this volume.

Wow what a volume! I feel like this volume gives us a very different look at the world that we are in. Getting to know our horse fellow here lead to a shocking reveal. I know that not everyone is going to love the direction from here, but man I am invested. We also got to catch up with some of our Cherryton Academy favorites, including Haru!

Volume 14 of Beastars pushes along further into the burgeoning adulthoods of the characters we met in Cherryton Academy. It also complicates our understanding of the in-series "Beastars", who are not valorized as the heroes they're seen as in schools. Yahya is the star of this volume, as the cover would suggest. Itagaki's presentation of the grey areas of morality and life really shine with this character. We also get new insight into life for Haru beyond Cherryton and how college life has broadened her own world view. The world building of Beastars continues to impress and the care with which Itagaki situates different species within the laws that govern their world is so compelling. Yet again, I'm reeling for the next volume.
