Melon's Mother/History

Overview • **History** • Relationships • Gallery

## Background

In her youth she met a male gazelle, with whom she fell in love because of his way of being. For a while they were going out on dates and the relationship between them was good. After her pregnancy was revealed, that gazelle ended up abandoning her, leaving her alone to raise the child.

### Revenge of the Love Failure arc

She appears in Melon's memories, where little by little his childhood is described and what he had to endure from her at a very young age. The looks of other animals who saw him as an aberration and his mother who he unfairly treated as a murderer due to the lack of a father of that hybrid child. This led to Melon having different problems at school due to bullying from his classmates, but he endured all this so as not to worry his mother, who was always loving. Melon reached his limit as one afternoon at school some of his classmates tried to incite him to commit suicide by jumping from the roof of the school to end his mother's suffering, but being tired of this, he pushed them off the roof instead. Melon returned home without any guilt, but his mother's mental state began to deteriorate with the passing of the days, to the point that she got to have a certain "excitement" when she was touched by her son while they bathed. One day while ironing clothes, due to a school task Melon had asked her the meaning behind his name. She replied that it is because melons are not fruits or vegetables, but that one way they taste good and just like the melons he is neither carnivore nor herbivore. She still wants life as sweet as melons, being the first time she reminds his son of his deplorable herbivore status even using her fairy tale tone breaking the illusion of her son. He takes the hot iron and puts it on her hand, declaring that this is how reality feels and this is his reality as a hybrid. She claims to already know because he has the same eyes as his father and loves him very much for that, claiming that she loves his scared eyes and his fragile body which are the essence of a herbivore, revealing that it reminds her of the taste of his father that she loves very much. In response, Melon kills her by hitting her on the head with the iron.

The Black Market

* Anime
* Manga

The **Black market** (裏市, *Ura-shi*?) is a relatively secret yet infamous locality in the *Beastars* universe.

## Description

The Black Market is located near the center of the city. Relative to the rest of the city, it's a small area housed mostly by carnivores. It is usually seen as taboo to go there, as it hosts the selling and distributing of illegal goods such as animal blood, various meats, a variety of drugs, etc.

It is the most forbidden place for an herbivore to visit as many predatory offenders call the Black Market home, however even carnivores can be preyed on there. Many carnivores sell portions of their bodies in the Black Market for the use of traditional medicines and hyperdrugs, while others are attacked on the streets for their pelts to be made into goods.

Few herbivores call the Black Market home, though those who do are often seen illegally offering up parts of their bodies to be consumed by carnivores as a source of fresh meat, or performing in strip clubs.

There exists a clinic within the Black Market run by Gohin. Its primary purpose is the rehabilitation of carnivores who are at risk of or have become predatory offenders.

## Gangs

The Black Market is home to four major criminal organizations. During an event known as the "Day of Depravity", they compete for domination over the Black Market.

## Trivia

* The Black Market concept was first introduced in *Beast Complex* and was later carried over to *Beastars*.
* Despite the consumption of meat being criminalized in the world of *Beastars*, there exists a loophole within the law that allows the Black Market to exist. The consumption of live meat is punishable by law, but most of the goods circulated within the Black Market come from hospitals and funeral homes as donations.
	+ Despite this, there exist secret circles of livestock trafficking rings who sell young live animals to be preyed upon by carnivores.
* Bill visits the Black Market at least once a month, however it's implied that he regularly visited there even before its debut in the series.
* The police force does not seem to regularly frequent the Black Market, making it the ideal hub for the various criminal circuits that organize there.

Gon

* Anime
* Manga

**Gon** (ゴン, *Gon*?) is a minor character in *Beastars* and *Beast Complex*. He is the Headmaster of Cherryton Academy.

## Appearance

### *Beast Complex*

His wardrobe in the series was limited to a uniform of the boarding school he attended, which consists of a long-sleeved cream-colored sweater, a badge of boarding school, a tie, some pants and black shoes. During a dispute with one of his highest-level classmates, he received a scar over his left eye.

### *Beastars*

His wardrobe consists of a black suit, white shirt and a red tie, and wears square glasses.

## Personality

### *Beast Complex*

He is a pretty happy boy, always looking for opportunities to see his childhood friend Mog during recess hours. The two of them are very close, but once Gon was 10 years old they were separated to different buildings inside the boarding school for security reasons. This fact led to a conflict with Gon, who saw this rule as stupid, because they distanced him from his friend, with whom he always had very funny conversations. In the eyes of the other animals of the boarding school that friendship was very badly seen. In spite of that they continued to see each other and even tried to expose the carnivores of higher degrees to raise awareness with the younger carnivores so that the gap between carnivores and herbivores will be reduced and try to eliminate that rule that drives them all away, without solving the real problem. The companions of greater degree tried to convince Gon to join them, to continue intimidating the herbivores, but the strong conviction of justice of Gon was greater. He wanted to be the strongest of all to protect his friend, but despite all their efforts to expose them, the event was hidden. The guilty were only given one month of suspension and Mog and Gon were only given protection from now on.

After this series of events, Mog confess to Gon that at that moment he was afraid that this was his true nature. Even though he always shows that he is kind, he hides his potential and for this fact believes that one day they are bound to go their seperate ways, but in spite of that it is not a reason to be sad.

### *Beastars*

Now as an adult, he is a little more calm about his personality as a young man. As the headmaster of Cherryton High School he has shown interest in seeing his students grow up without having to suffocate them; this is a fact that he reaffirmed in the board of directors to choose the next candidates for a Beastar. Where he affirms that youth is a very hard stage, it is the moment in which one falls in love, one questions his own value in society, where one begins to have the first disagreements with his wild instincts and that in spite of that the current education system tries to make you bear a great responsibility to your students, even more to those who are candidates to be a Beastar.

## Trivia

* He is one of the few characters to have appeared in both *Beastars* and *Beast Complex*.

## Lyrics

マスに合わせた lifestyle 無理でも楽すりゃ不利　Freedom 謳歌:Furitsufuki 飛ばす skill これ違う last minute
Merci, au revoir
Pride が邪魔する妄想, Donc vas-y jette ca
全て try shikonpai, 笛に救われ halftime

Kept walking on the wild side
I don't wanna fall asleep throughout my life
Sometimes in a buffalo style
Sometimes like a rock'n roll mind

Climax 夢見 all in
オッズ見えない blurred
気持ち飛び立つ Boeing
一寸先はさ?

It is wonderful my life
Please could you kiss my name?
When the music is over
Turn off light
It was such a sweet time
Could you pray for me, my friend?
It's starting over time

Taking over the night
Taking over the blue time
If you heard that screaming shout in your mind
Taking over the shine
Taking over the shooting star
All I was talking about music, and that's called jazz!

Masu ni awaseta raifusutairu muri demo rakusurya furi Furīdamu ōka: Furitsufuki tobasu sukiru kore chigau rasuto minutto
Merushi, o ruvowāru
Puraido ga jama suru mōsho, Donc vas-y jette ça
Subete torai shikonpai, fue ni sukuware hāfutaimu

Keputo wōkingu on za wairudo saido
Ai dōnto wōna fōru usurīpu surūauto mai raifu
Samutaimuzu in a bafurō stairu
Samutaimuzu raiku a rokkunrōru maindo

Kuraimakksu yumemi ōru in
Ozzu mienai burādo
Kimochi tobitatsu bōingu
Issunsaki wa sa?

Itto izu wandafuru mai raifu
Purīzu kuddo yū kisu mai nēmu?

Mass produced lifestyle, even if there's no way, it's your disadvantage if you take the easy way out, Enjoy Freedom
Blow off the unreasonable, skill, this isn't right, last minute
Thank you, goodbye
Pride gets in my imagination, So go on throw that
Tried everything and got exhausted, Saved by the whistle, halftime

I kept walking on the wild side
I don't wanna fall asleep throughout my life
Sometimes in a buffalo style
Sometimes like a rock'n roll mind
(be wild side)

Climax, Dream, all in
I can't see the odds it's blurred
(try it)
The feeling takes off, Boeing
What's ahead?

It is a wonderful my life
Please could you kiss my name?
When the music's over
Turn off light
It was a such a sweet time
Could you pray for me, my friend?
It's starting over time

Taking over night
Taking over blue time
If you heard that screaming shout in your mind
Taking over the shine
Taking over the shooting star
All I was talking about was music
And that's called jazz!

Leano/History

## History

Leano was born to Gosha and Toki. At the hospital, the doctors were anxious to see what the hybrid baby would look like, but to their relief, Leano came out looking like a full-blooded wolf. As she spent her first years in school, she refused to be seen in public with her Komodo dragon father, afraid to hurt him and to have people start to spread rumors about her.

She pushed herself to be sociable and friendly with everyone so that her popularity would boost in school. Leano noted that it must be her reptilian heritage that caused her to be a little reserved before she made herself talk more often.

When she turned 19, her first scales appeared. She was thoroughly freaked out and decided to have a one-night stand with Miyagi, a gray wolf she found in a magazine in order to have a mostly pure wolf child. After giving birth to Legoshi, she started to close herself off from everyone and always hid in her bedroom, where she would talk to others using a hole in the door.

When Legoshi turned 12, she slept in his bed with him for the first and last time, before she committed suicide. No one else except Gosha and Legoshi presumably knew why she killed herself.

### Revenge of the Love Failure arc

Leano was able to talk with her son again as a spirit when he was having an out-of-body experience. She talked about her life to him.

Ibuki is intelligent and loyal towards his boss and comrades. When it comes to Louis, Ibuki is shown to be caring and protective. However, he still knows not to overstep his boundaries as Louis's subordinate. He also has hidden insecurities as a result of the ideology of the former boss of the Shishigumi.

Ibuki was sold as hyperdrug material at the age of 12, but ran away, living alone the Black Market until he joined the Shishigumi at age 18. During his time in the organization, he always tried to get along with everyone and his boss; it was not to seek a high position, but to unite them as a family. This was not possible under the command of the first boss, who made him project an aura of oppression that made herbivores around him look at him in fear. Once Louis took control of the Shishigumi, Ibuki did everything he could to be friends with Louis and to protect him, but without overstepping his boundaries as he was the head of the organization. Ibuki contained his desire to hunt him as a sign of respect, as Louis improved the Shishigumi's reputation and increased their influence in the Black Market.

San restrains Louis and tells Kyuu to attack Legoshi's left flank and right eyelid. Kyuu does so with astonishing speed, slashing Legoshi across the side, and commenting him as 'a buffet of old scars'. Legoshi manages to disarm her of her weapons but quickly finds himself being strangled by her rope. Once restrained, Kyuu prepares to cut out Legoshi's right eye, using his claw scars as tracing lines, but Legoshi manages to make her pause by pulling down her pants. While this makes her pause, Kyuu refuses to let such an act phase her, even telling Legoshi that he can look if he wants to, since he won't be using his eyes to see much longer. She questions why Legoshi didn't just kick her, and assumes that it was because he sees her as a female herbivore, a carnivore's supposed depiction of weakness; for this, she labels him as a dull male. She then looks to Louis and tells them both that she'll be selling their parts on the Black Market, but finally ceases her attack when she recognizes Louis as Number 4.

With the fight over, Legoshi is given stitches, and he and Louis express frustration on them attacking them outright.
