Summary

At a high school where the students are literally divided into predators and prey, friendships maintain the fragile peace. Who among them will become a Beastar -- a hero destined to lead in a society naturally rife with mistrust? Lop-eared rabbit Kyu teaches gray wolf Legoshi a thing or two about female empowerment as she trains him to confront his most powerful foe yet. When the Shishi-gumi lions prepare to slay half-leopard, half-gazelle Melon, he divulges the story of his horrific first crime. Meanwhile, red deer Louis's status in the world changes overnight, while dwarf rabbit Haru's low self-esteem may lead to her paying the ultimate price!
