Bungo Stray Dogs: No Thoughts, Just Vibes

In which Em & Kris lay out their urban fantasy gripes, appreciate creative character designs, and do a deep dive into 20th-century Japanese lit. | Bungo Stray Dogs ingeniously explores a world of famous late authors and poets, each of them incarnated as a superpowered young adult or teenager. The manga was originally written by Kafka Asagiri and illustrated by Sanog Harukawa. An anime television series was later adapted by Bones and aired in 2016. Since then, the show has been well-received around the world, and was listed by Atomix as the fifth best anime of 2016 for its interesting premise, creative design, and references to writers.
