Bungo Stray Dogs Plot
For the past few weeks, the orphanage where Atsushi Nakajima (the protagonist of Bungo Stray Dogs) resided had been plagued by a mystical tiger that everyone except him, knew about. Atsushi gets displaced from the orphanage as they suspected him of the strange events that took place.
He no longer has food or water and is forced to wander the streets of the city. He saves a rather odd man named Osamu Dazai. The latter happens to be a suicidal enthusiast and a supernatural detective. He and his partner investigated the very tiger that affected Atsushi, and the findings put him in a very tough situation. Atsushi has no choice but to join Dazai and his firm which deals with supernatural events.
