Jyu-Oh-Sei (Planet of the Beast King) is a Science Fiction manga that ran in the shoujo magazine LaLa from 1993 to 2003. It was turned into a eleven episode anime in 2006, which was released in North America in 2008.It tells the story of Thor, a young boy who, along with his twin brother Rai (who quickly dies), is kidnapped from his home and taken to the penal colony Chimera, the Planet of the Beast King. In order to survive in Chimera's harsh environment, the prisoners (and more importantly, the descendants of those prisoners) are forced to become like savage beasts. The more Thor learns about the planet, the more he is forced to accept that, in order to survive and escape Chimera, he will have to become a beast himself.Aiding him in this is Tiz, the second-in-command of Sun Ring's female group, and Third, a schemer who prefers to work behind the scenes, rather than become a Top himself. Other characters include Chen, the Top of Sun Ring's women who is irrevocably in love with Third, Zagi, the leader of an outcast group of children who will later become Thor's rival, and Karim, with whom Thor falls in love. As the story develops, Thor will have to fight to survive and climb to the top of the food chain (so to speak) so he can leave the planet and discover why he was sent to this place.

Anyone Can Die: From the series initial planning creator Natsumi Itsuki actually decided that every single main character besides Thor would die, and with the exceptions of Chen, Rada, and Kevin, they do.

Jekyll & Hyde: An interesting example, because each personality has both Jekyll and Hyde elements. Third is an ally to the protagonists while Heiser is technically working with Odin against them. However, Third is cunning and willing to kill, compared to the less-driven, naturally gentler Sigurd.

Situational Sexuality: Women are very scarce on Chimera, and tend to live separately from men. As a result, a lot of otherwise straight men aren't against going for the next best thing (read: Thor).

Wild Child: Every child born on Chimaera is abandoned in infancy, to be raised in "yado nests" by other wild children until they're older and strong enough to earn their place in a Ring. Zagi is introduced as the leader of one of the feral packs, and he's by far the most human among them.

Take My Hand!: Heiser falls from a ledge during the escape from Hecate, and Thor grabs him. The trope is then subverted when Heiser shoots himself in the head rather than allow Thor to risk his life in the rescue attempt.

comment
Faux Action Girl: Tiz. She saves Thor in the first episode, then spends the other ten clinging to him as her hero. Never do we see her actually do something worthy of her status as a Second. Justified/explained in the manga: She simply was never an Action Girl to begin with. Her status as second was more for social and political reasons. The female Sun Ring Top and Third hate each other, but both get along fine with Tiz — thus she was there to serve as a buffer between them.

Leg Focus: Chen's legs are a major focus during her scenes in the first half, between her outfit and the angles from which she is shown. It makes her injury during the Time Skip all the more unpleasant.

comment
Zagi. His favorite strategy in a one-on-one fight is to deliberately drop his sword, blind the enemy with his cape, and then kill them with the hidden blade on his arm. This is about as honorable as his fighting gets; he also might decide to slaughter an entire Ring of people without warning just because doing so will provoke the authorities on Juno. Other characters try to call him out on this, and he responds with scorn.

This is about as honorable as his fighting gets; he also might decide to slaughter an entire Ring of people without warning just because doing so will provoke the authorities on Juno. Other characters try to call him out on this, and he responds with scorn. Third to a lesser extent; he casually suggests allowing the Blanc Ring to attack Sun so that Thor will only have to defeat one Top to become Beast King. Thor himself — the first time we see someone killed by a human in the anime, it's Thor offering someone his light knife so that he'll approach, and then stabbing him.

Humans Are the Real Monsters: Thor maintains that he wants to leave Chimaera as a human being, refusing to allow the brutal nature of the planet to turn him into a beast. Third points out that there is no beast more vicious or dangerous than a human being.

Black Dude Dies First: The members of the Night Ring all have dark skin and get massacred halfway through the series. Their leader Jeso is the first Top to be killed (on-screen at least) after the Time Skip. A few survive and attempt to kill Zagi, but wind up shooting Tiz. Subverted, as Rai is as white as you can get in the series and is the first (non-posthumous) named character to die.

 Jyu-Oh-Sei (Manga) / int_ae6adc36
comment
Religious and Mythological Theme Naming: Many planets, people, and ships are named after mythological figures, predominantly from Greek and Norse mythology. Some are symbolic, some are done for worldbuilding, and some just seem random.

Face–Heel Turn: Third. Subverted by Zagi; he never actually turns on Thor, but Thor is manipulated into thinking he has betrayed their alliance.

12-Episode Anime: It's eleven episodes, unfortunately too short to cover the manga's entire plot.

Compressed Adaptation
 Jyu-Oh-Sei (Manga) / int_bdc94cd9
comment
Compressed Adaptation: This is what happens when you try to squeeze five volumes of a manga rich in story and background info into only eleven episodes. Many vital pieces of information are missing from the anime or compressed into one line of dialogue (notably, that that the people of Chimaera are a new subspecies of homo sapiens), making it difficult to fully understand.

comment
Tomato Surprise: Thor is actually a genetic experiment sent to Chimera in order to test his worthiness to become the savior of the human race. Third is white as driven snow, looks exactly like Thor, and has been working for the bad guys all along. People born on Chimaera have evolved into a new subspecies of homo sapiens.

comment
Unlucky Childhood Friend: Not played completely straight, but Tiz, who has been with Thor since she was twelve, loses out to Karim. Played with. Thor actually loves Tiz a lot and she's very important to him, to the point where in the end he would sleep with her if that's what she wanted. He's just not in love with her. Like Brother and Sister: On Thor's end, at least.

comment
Justified/explained in the manga: She simply was never an Action Girl to begin with. Her status as second was more for social and political reasons. The female Sun Ring Top and Third hate each other, but both get along fine with Tiz — thus she was there to serve as a buffer between them.

All Girls Want Bad Boys: Karim has been desperately in love with Zagi since she first met him, despite the way Zagi usually treats her. He is slightly less of an asshole (to her, anyway) in the "Death Game" prequel. Chen and Third are a milder example.

Worst Aid
 Jyu-Oh-Sei (Manga) / int_de306ba6
comment
Worst Aid: When 11-year-old Thor has passed out from blood loss and his pulse is weakening, Third starts slapping him. It works. The trope is later subverted when Thor tries to pull one of Karim's barbed wires out of his shoulder and fails, falling to his knees in pain. She tells him there's a trick to it and collapses the barb before removing it.

Decoy Protagonist: The summary and first episode of the anime imply that Thor and Rai share the protagonist role. However, Rai falls to his death very early on in the series, and although they Never Found the Body, it eventually becomes evident that he is Killed Off for Real.

Morality Pet: Karim for Zagi, when he's not being a massive Jerkass to her too. The few and far between moments when he shows that he cares are pretty genuine, especially in Death Game.

comment
Jerkass: Zagi. He has some Pet the Dog moments with Thor and (oddly enough) Tiz, and Karim in the prequel, but overall he's an arrogant, cruel, not-even-borderline psychopath. He's the epitome of the Chimaeran species: a beast who is also human. It's just that he combines the worst qualities of each. The Ochre Ring's Top before the Time Skip was at least as big a jerk as Zagi, without any of the qualities that make Zagi an interesting character.

Can't Have Sex, Ever
 Jyu-Oh-Sei (Manga) / int_eee99653
comment
Can't Have Sex, Ever: Third's excuse for not sleeping with Chen is that he's sterile so he wouldn't be able to father a child, which is the point of having sex (at least with women) in Chimaeran society. This is probably just an excuse; the real reason is most likely that genetically, he has pale skin, blue eyes, and platinum blond hair. Even a hint of these traits appearing on his child would severely jeopardize his cover.

Well-Intentioned Extremist: Odin, although he does pick up the Villain Ball by accelerating Chimaera's rotation, endangering the planet itself as well as the lives of everybody still on it. Zagi. He's fighting for Chimaeran independence and the abolition of a cruel and manipulative ruling system, but his methods are ruthless and downright brutal.
