Leano

Leano (レアノ) was a recurring character in Beastars, as well as Legoshi's mother and Gosha's daughter. She was a half-gray wolf and half-Komodo dragon hybrid. She briefly appears as a spirit in the later chapters and is seen speaking to Legoshi while he has an out-of-body experience at a hospital.

Appearance
Leano was a beautiful gray wolf/Komodo dragon hybrid. However, she did not show any signs of being part reptilian until she was nineteen years old, when scales began to show under her fur. She had gray-brown fur and brown eyes, with large pupils and long eyelashes. She was often seen wearing dresses.

Personality
Leano cared very deeply about her looks, which stems from the fact that society favors beautiful animals above anything else. She was embarrassed to be seen with her father, a Komodo dragon, and pretended to be a full-blooded gray wolf throughout her childhood.

After her death, she showed great remorse for the fact that she chose to die for the sake of her appearance instead of living for her son. Her new wish is for Legoshi and Gosha to live better lives than she did.

Trivia

 * The older Leano grew, the more scales began to show under her fur—it got to the point of covering over half her body when Legoshi was twelve.
 * She was very popular in her school years because of her beauty.
 * It is presumed she committed suicide because she loathed being "ugly."
 * Leano was always a single mother. She even admitted to not remember the wolf she slept with to have Legoshi.
 * When Leano's spirit visited Legoshi while he had an out-of-body experience, she had the appearance of a purebred gray wolf, looking like how she would have looked like if her reptilian heritage did not manifest on her body throughout her adulthood.
