A closer look at some Beastars characters' philosophies

(I won’t get into characters such as Legosi, Haru or Louis since I already talked a lot about their philosophy AND how said philosophies have evolved.)

Juno:

Juno loves being a carnivore and takes pride in her strength and beauty that are the trademarks of a wolf. She is well-aware how hated her species is and she aims at becoming a Beastar(an elite in society) so she can spread her message about carnivore pride. She dislikes herbivores and is polite and friendly to them for the sake of her good reputation, and she is alright with the idea of segregation, believing it is in everyone’s interest.

So Juno is into egotism, meaning the theory that one’s self is, or should be, the motivation and the goal of one’s own action. She serves her own interest first and is only friendly or helpful if it somehow is in her interest. So it also makes her somewhat unkind if she is with someone who can’t be of use to her so to say. Heck, she is downright vicious to people who are somehow in her way, like Haru since she was her “competition”.

Melon:

Melon doesn’t care how civilized the animals of Beastars are. To him, they are beasts, creatures who are slaves to their instincts. They want sex and they want food, that is what drives them.

And sure, Melon is… somewhat right about the instinct thing… but he is also simplifying it because of his cynicism.

But since he believes everyone to be dumb animals(some smarter than others) then he feels absolutely no guilt about being a monster. He kills, deceive, and does whatever the hell he feels like. It seems like his philosophy is very similar to Doctor Moreau(look him up) who argues that the traits that separates humans from animals are just altered or disguised instincts.

Gouhin:

Gouhin believes that the best way to make the world a better place is by LITERALLY beating sense into other carnivores, one meat eater at the time. But he also thinks that carnivores SHOULD eat meat, but they should do it in the Back-Ally Marked where they can buy it from shops who received it from hospitals or undertakers. That is more moral than killing someone. And he only wishes to treat meat eaters who have lost control, not turn them over to the authorities since he consider the neat for meat a born cross to bear(hehehe.. bear…) and HE is in no position to judge since he is a panda, a carnivore who was born able to live by only eating bamboo.

That means that he get VERY impressed by Legosi who did not actually give into eating meat despite Gouhin locking him in a room with meat to try and teach him a lesson. He is constantly on Legosi’s back and berates him, but he actually consider him an exceptional animal, both mentally and physically. But he is STILL just an expectation that proves the rule.

Gosha:

Gosha is a pacifist, which is sort of funny when you consider the fact tat he was a child soldier who later fought crime with Yafya. But he got a family much to his surprise when his wolf girlfriend got pregnant, something that was SUPER unlikely since he is a reptile(remember, ALWAYS use protection). So Gosha adapted to becoming a single father after his wife died and led a completely different life than the rather violent one he had before. So his ideology changed a lot, making him sort of an uncle Tom who was well-behaved and simply allowed others to treat him poorly for being a poisonous lizard. He taught his grandson Legosi this ideology as well, that the strong should not use their strength.

Gosha believes that if you have strength, then you have the responsibility to not harm others. This means that if others comes to you looking for a fight, then you HAVE to evade the conflict by either leaving or possibly yield. If you fight, even for yourself, then you are a bully. This ideology is rather harmful since it means that you just HAVE to take it if others treat you poorly and it can lead to lack of self respect. In fact, you could argue that he hurt Legosi by raising him into being passive.

However, Gosha also believes that you have a responsibility to use strength to help others. So he becomes downright violent when someone either tries to harm his family or friends.

Yafya:

Yafya believes that the world is chaotic by nature and that carnivores are savages who just pretend to have self control. Even when he was friends with Gosha, he still thought of him as a big monster. A friendly monster, but still a monster. The only way to ensure peace is by ruling the world with an iron fist and that problems are best solved by kicking them till they are solved.

The problem with this peace-trough-force philosophy is that it requires someone to be the one forcing the peace. Yafya has to stay in insanely good shape to be the iron fist that hold society together, but no amount of carrot juice will change the fact that he will eventually grow old and tired and won’t be able to be that iron fist.

And when that happens, then an old problem will turn ten times worse. The problem of carnivores living in fear.

Because even though the existence of the Sublime Beastar is a government secret, there are still rumors about him and it is normal for animals to assume he is real. To herbivores, he is a hero. To the carnivores, he is a bogeyman. The Back-Ally Marked has graffiti everywhere where he is called the “Black Devil” since rumor has it that he eats carnivores(something that is true). So if this bogeyman either dies or becomes unable to be the force that scares them… well, then the one-afraid meat eaters will become very pissed off meat eaters.

Yafya only provides a temporary fix to society, not an actual solution.

Riz:

Riz the bear has a rather warped world view, but it is also one that is a result of… for a lack of better words; “laziness.”

Riz made a philosophy that herbivores were born to get eaten and that eating another animal is the same as making them a part of you. So the herbivore is being a great friend by “allowing” you to eat them up.

But the truth is that Riz ate Tem because he was stupid enough to stop taking his drugs and did not consider the consequences. But instead of feeling guilty about it, he sugarcoated it and made himself believe that it was an act of friendship. And if he REALLY bought his own bullshit, then he wouldn’t have gone back to his drugs. He would have kept eating other animals, making more “friends“. But he chose to just move on with his life after eating Tem, acting like nothing happened. That’s the act of a coward.

(This takes place during a fight between Karax and Lucas)

[...] Lucas was mad, as he wanted to have his memories back. Yet, he didn’t regret giving the World Tree’s branch to Athanasia and her father. He did not give it to them only because of the great love he feels towards her, but also because he respects Claude, as he is the only reason why his loved empire is in such good conditions. Thanks to the emperor, Lucas could keep enjoying Obelia, that had once been his home.

[...]

Lucas swore to protect Obelia, the emperor, and obviously, Athanasia. After all, he was the protector of magic, and even he did not want to remember it, he was sure it was his duty as the Ancestral Wizard: he must not only protect Obelia, but the whole world.

There is this one manhwa that is being ignored right now

It's called

The moon witch and the sun king

So why not make fan art?

#manhwa #isekai #female lead #the moon witch and the sun king

[oranges-things]

This theory isn't going to happen but I want to think about it anyway.

Let's say that Claude kills Anthy just as Lucas finds a way to cure his curse. Lucas extremely upset thinks of a way to make Claude suffer. He remembers how much Claude loved Anthy and decides to have Claude remember as a punishment.

Claude becomes discussed by himself, this gets him in a horrible depression, Lucas will to everything to make Claude remember Anthy for the one who killed her needs to suffer.

Once Claude becomes old Lucas will visit him at night an give him the body that he had the day of Anthy's death with blood and all. Claude will be known as "the Eternal king" in this whole scenario and will live for centuries. Lucas will give Claude the gift of suffering both on the day of Anthy's birthday and death.
