Bungo Stray Dogs

Driven out from his orphanage, Nakajima Atsushi wanders the streets of Yokohama on the bring of starvation. Determined to live, a chance encounter with a drowning stranger changes his fate...

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...

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...
