BNA, or Brand New Animal, is a show made by Studio
Trigger, and aired on Netflix. The show takes place mostly in Anima City, a safe haven for beastmen(also known as beastkin), which are humanoid animals(intelligent, of course), and are hated by
humans. The show’s main character is named Michiru Kagemori, a human who became a beastman(a tanooki in the beginning) from an accident in a hospital. Michiru can shape-shift due to her not having a defined type of beastman species(the mitosis process in her cells causes her to stretch her arms to
long distances, inflate her tail so that it cushions falling, grow wings, have heightened sense of smell, etc.). Her social worker friend, Shirou Ogami, is a beastman whose form partakes in that of a gray
wolf. He wears a collar around his neck to keep his power at
bay, as he is what the beastmen call the Silver
Wolf, a magic being. The show was overall very good, although I would advise not to watch it if you are squeamish around blood and
death.
A: Hey man, wanna watch
TV?
B: Sure, how about that show Brand New Animal? It’s really good.
A: *Watches for a couple episodes* Oh my, I did not expect his chest to be impaled. Look at all of that blood.
A: Wait, he’s alive?
Even though his STOMACH WALL WAS SLICED OPEN? And he’s chatting with Michiru? How?
A: Oh he’s the Silver
Wolf ok
