Official Synopsis[]

In a world populated by anthropomorphic animals, herbivores and carnivores coexist with each other. For the adolescents of Cherryton Academy, school life is filled with hope, romance, distrust, and uneasiness.

The main character is Legoshi the gray wolf, a member of the drama club. Despite his menacing appearance, he has a very gentle heart. Throughout most of his life, he has always been an object of fear and hatred by other animals, and he's been quite accustomed to that lifestyle. But soon, he finds himself becoming more involved with his fellow classmates who have their own share of insecurities and finds his life in school changing slowly.[6][7]

    Differences between the anime and the manga[]

    • In the anime, some characters have a different coat color from the manga. The most notorious cases are Riz and Agata, who have a completely different color from the manga.
    • The anime never featured flashbacks about Legoshi's and Jack's childhoods, nor did it reveal anything about Legoshi's family. It only limited itself to saying that Legoshi has a grandfather.
    • In the second season, the order of events has been altered from the manga.
    • The anime included original characters like Carl and Roger, but did not include Mark, Mokichi, and Ai.
