while this wasn't the greatest chapter, but all the chapters without Melon are still the better ones in this otherwise mediocre arc that has long overstayed it's welcome. It's still better than the final arc of KnY, which was a massive disappointment with it's final arc and ending. With Beastars, I'm guessing the manga won't end right away after this arc is finally over. So I'm hoping it can still have a good ending
Also, LouisxLegoshi are a far better ship than Legoshi and Haru. no one can convince me otherwise. This has nothing to do with the chapter, but Paru could have easily added a gay character in the story. You have the whole taboo with inter species relationships of herbivores and carnivores. Adding a gay character in a extremely hetero-normative society could have been interesting. I wasn't even sure if homosexuality even existed in Paru's lore until that one chapter with the bisexual or lesbian rando fox lady who went to that underground club.
For example, Paru could have made Yahya gay, and secretly in love with Gosha when they were training to become Beastars. Then it would have been an even bigger emotional impact on Yahya when Gosha decided to abandon the Beastar title and marry Legoshi's grandma.
