I still can't figure out why I watched this? I'm not even being sarcastic, I just don't know why hearing about it prompted my ordinarily procrastination-prone self to pull it up. also it's furry Twilight but anime, just so you know

Entertaining enough. Pacing seemed good, writing wasn’t terrible, mildly intriguing world. Characters seem charming, but very quickly devolve into stereotypes. The ‘really deep questions’ posed by the series don’t really hold weight - failing to support and most of plot and story points a good amount of the time. I don’t think I would’ve watched the second season if Netflix hadn’t queued it up after the last episode of the first season.

A very interesting exploration of predator-prey dynamics among teenagers, as they try to control their violent desires in a world full of temptation. Works well as a metaphor for male-female relationships, for human violent instincts, or for animal cruelty being hidden behind a seemingly peaceful society.

Great if you're into bestiality, furries, or vore. Otherwise it's pretty cringe and uncomfortable.
