Bill even comments that they've become a family, as Pina denies it while sleeping on Aoba. They both proceed to force Aoba to nurse it with them.
Chapter 77, which describes their story, actually show makes Riz's narration making quite romantic sounding descriptions of them, like saying his words were sweeter than honey, and that on the night he died, his eyes were the most beautiful he'd ever seen. Tem and him grew close when he started confiding in him about everything, which alleviated the side-effects Riz needed honey to deal with.
Oh, FYI, I'd love to write the Gargoyles movie for Disney. In closing, let me remind you that the geek shall inherit the Earth. Business-wise, I make big cheddar (not really) as a copywriter and digital strategist working with some of the top brands in the Latin America region. And yes, I've written sports for them too! Not bad for someone from the Caribbean, eh? To top all this off, I've scribed short films and documentaries, conceptualizing stories and scripts from a human interest and social justice perspective. I also write about music in terms of punk, indie, hardcore and emo because well, they rock! If you're bored by now, then you also don't want to hear that I write for ESPN on the PR side of things. On the geek side of things, I write about comics, cartoons, video games, television, movies and basically, all things nerdy. It was boring so I decided to write about things I love. And the depiction of women has been an issue in manga and anime for years, making the decision to not alter things from the source material more peculiar. Worse yet, we see Haru in flashbacks with older men having sex with her when she was clearly a minor. The Chief positioning Haru for two episodes and then having a separate shower for her before he "feeds" on her meat is very disturbing and feels like a double standard. Why is gunplay bad but sexualizing and demonizing a woman is accepted? So clearly, liberties were taken to make the show more digestible. After all, the show edited out Louis' love for guns and Gouhin gunning down the Yakuza, having him use a bow instead.
While the show's tailored for mature audiences, it could have catered to teens who would have appreciated its Animal Farm-esque take on division, class and xenophobia between herbivores and carnivores. RELATED: How Beastars Is Different From the Manga The show, however, goes out of its way to show far too much of her sex life and even has other characters slut-shaming her - all without fully exploring her upbringing and how it ties into who she is.
We know Haru's a nymphomaniac, which is tied to her past trauma. Regardless, some tweaks could have helped. But in the source material, Haru's size plays an integral role in why the character is so promiscuous. Haru might be an 18-year-old, but seeing as she's half the size of all the men she's with on the show, the sex scenes with her feel a little creepy.
