Bungo Stray Dogs

Kicked out of his orphanage and on the verge of starving to death, Nakajima Atsushi meets Dazai Osamu and Kunikida Doppo, members of the "Armed Detective Agency", an agency that solves incidents that even the military and police won't touch.

Despite joining the Armed Detective Agency, Nakajima lacks convection that he'd be of any use. Just as he's about to bid the agency farewell, a bomber takes over the agency with one of the agency employees as his hostage!

Now an official member of the Agency after passing their entrance exam, Atsushi is assigned to his first case right away with Tanizaki and Naomi. Though deceptively simple on the surface, there's more than meets the eye

Though saved from the Port Mafia by Dazai's intervention, Atsushi feels responsible for bringing trouble to the Agency's door. Rather than risk another attack because of him, Atsushi decides to leave the Agency and makes a call to the Port Mafia

Skeptical of the self-dubbed great detective who seems to lack all common sense, Atsushi is about to witness Rampo's ability first-hand

The Agency investigates a series of disappearances in Yokohama. Kunikida enlists the help of a hacker named Taguchi Rokuzou, but all they find are photos of the victims and mention of a mysterious figure called the Azure Messenger. They follow the trail of clues to an abandoned hospital

Following the Azure Messenger's bomb threat, the Armed Detective Agency must race to prevent the deaths of hundreds, which would taint the Agency forever. However, Dazai's seemingly distracted by Sasaki Nobuko, the lone survivor of their raid on the abandoned hospital

Dazai goes missing, but the Agency operatives feel it's just business as usual. Meanwhile, Atsushi accompanies Yosano Akiko on a shopping expedition, where they are suddenly plunged into the middle of a terrorist bomb threat by one of the Port Mafia

The leaders of the Agency and the Port Mafia negotiate an alliance. Meanwhile, Dazai and Chuuya face off against Lovecraft.

Dazai has a face-off with his ex-partner, Chuuya, as Chuuya attempts to uncover Dazai's true intentions for letting himself get captured. Meanwhile, Atsuhi faces Akutagawa's intense and inexplicable hatred for him, as the ship continues on to the meeting place where he will be handed off in exchange for the bounty on his head

In the aftermath of Atsushi and Dazai's abduction, the Agency must decide what to do with Kyouka, the loose end. Meanwhile, the Port Mafia also deliberates what to do with Akutagawa, now comatose, as his enemies seek vengeance.

Francis, the leader of The Guild, a North American organization of gifted members, is the one responsible for the bounty on Atsushi's head. Fukuzawa refuses Francis's offer to buy out the Agency, but their agents begin to disappear
