Binary System Podcast #450 – Beastars and Star Trek: Lower Decks

Episode 450! That’s…kind of a milestone, right? To celebrate, let’s do the same thing we’ve been doing for a few weeks now!

First up, Beastars Season 3, episode 10. This episode merits a trigger warning, since we finally get to see what led to Legoshi’s mother’s death, and it’s pretty heartbreaking. There’s also a brief tangent where Kathryn explains why a mournful wolf howl will always hit her in the feels.

After that it’s the Star Trek: Lower Decks episode “Reflections”. Ensign Rutherford’s adventure where he has to somehow make peace with his younger, angrier self is all kinds of interesting, and triumphant, and man did they manage to make that Romulan Warbird look even more intimidating than normal. And over in the B plot, Ensign Boimler loses his temper, and God help us but it just never stops being funny.
