I highly recommend it as well. One of my fewer 10/10 animes and definitely in top 5 for me. Didn't expect to like it so much. Don't let the aesthetic fool you.

tbh I can't even think of an anime to compare it to. It's pretty much a crime drama/psychological thriller masquerading as the last few episodes of Beastars s1

I heard really good stuff about this anime. One of my friends say it's an anime with emphasis on great dialogue.

Who would you cast as Yano for a dub? The Japanese VA is an actual rapper https://youtu.be/mC7il1_t3Bo

Yeah yall did

Finished the last episode after failing to binge all of it before sleeping. Holy shit that ending was just as perfect as the rest of the series. I kinda called the animals actually being humans thing by like episode 4 but they still nailed it and kept me hooked.

Absolutely one of the best animes I've seen in a while, and now I gotta rearrange my top 5 list

Just watched Gigguk's video on the show (I don't recommend watching it if you haven't finished like episode 10 or 11), and he made the only comparison to other media that makes sense to me:

Its Tarantino + Taxi Driver + No Country For Old Men

Wtf how did you get that by ep 4? I only got it once they started talking about his brain issues/uncanny ability to recognize people

Dialogue cues. I started sussing it when nobody except Odokawa referred to others as animals. Only characters who mention animals is the idol chick saying Baba has a "horse face" and Yano rapping about being like a porcupine. All but confirmed when Odokawa went to the harbor and talked about "human nature". Plus the Homosapiens when there was no signs that humans existed initially.

All the quips and references Odokawa and the nurse made with each other made me question the animal stuff, as well as Donraku and his daughter being different species altogether. Like why would Odokawa bring up famous real life musicians and actors by name and not a parody name that other series would use

With the twist you guys are talking about, there are a good amount of early visual cues, as well. Like during flashback sequences you'll see the silhouettes of a human body part like a hand instead of an animal one. I also remember in the doctor's office there's an animal anatomy model thing but the shadow it casts on the wall behind it is human. Super fucking subtle, clever stuff.

And not visual, but when Odokawa is first talking to Kiss' manager in the taxi and refers to one being a calico cat, his reaction is basically "Wtf?"
