Bungo Stray Dogs Plot
In recent weeks, an enigmatic tiger had been haunting the orphanage where Atsushi Nakajima, the protagonist of Bungo Stray Dogs, resided. Curiously, everyone except Atsushi was aware of its presence. As suspicion grew around him regarding the peculiar occurrences, Atsushi found himself expelled from the orphanage.
Now homeless and without provisions, Atsushi roamed the city streets in search of sustenance. It was during this desperate time that he encountered a peculiar individual named Osamu Dazai. Dazai, known for his fascination with suicide and his involvement in supernatural investigations, had been looking into the very tiger that had affected Atsushi. The discoveries made by Dazai and his partner presented Atsushi with a difficult choice. With no other options available, Atsushi reluctantly joined forces with Dazai and his agency, which specialized in dealing with supernatural phenomena.
