Legoshi

Legoshi (Japanese: レゴシ, Hepburn: Regoshi) is the protagonist of Paru Itagaki's manga Beastars. In a world of modern, civilized, anthropomorphic animals with a cultural divide between carnivores and herbivores, Legoshi is a high school student and gray wolf working with his red deer classmate Louis on settling tensions in the club at school. When meeting a rabbit called Haru, Legoshi becomes instantly in love with her and goes across the narrative dealing with the dilemma of a carnivore having a romantic relationship with a rabbit while also exploring a scent that made him nearly want to devour her. Legoshi was created by Itagaki in her teenage years and used one of Mathieu Amalric's works as a major influence to explain Legoshi's quiet personality. Itagaki felt conflicted in her portrayal of Legoshi in regard to whether or not Legoshi be a cool character as a result of the manga being aimed towards a young demography. In the anime adaptation of the manga, Legoshi was voiced by Chikahiro Kobayashi in Japanese and Jonah Scott in English. Legoshi has been a popular character in manga and anime. He was praised for the portrayal given in the narrative as a result of his coming-of-age arc conflicted with the series' setting, as well as his heroic characterization when searching for the murderer in the series' second season.
