Beastars Vol. 3 Manga – Festival Drama & Forbidden Urges at Cherryton

Beastars Vol. 3 explores the swirling tensions of Cherryton Academy during the legendary Meteor Festival, a cultural tribute to dinosaur ancestors. As Legoshi helps decorate the town, he reconnects with Haru—intensifying the question: is his attraction a crush or bloodlust? Carnivore instincts and societal taboos collide, especially as Bill, the Bengal tiger, considers consuming forbidden herbivore meat and recruits Legoshi into temptation.

Meanwhile, festival preparations reveal unsettling truths about the Black Market, where fragile alliances fracture and desperation lurks—some herbivores even trade body parts to survive. Paru Itagaki’s storytelling balances adolescent desire, moral ambiguity, and social hierarchies with expressive black-and-white art and growing psychological depth.
