Bungo Stray Dogs is a pretty unique shōnen anime based on the premise alone. All the characters have powers and identities based on important writers from around the globe, with new characters from different regions coming in to be introduced and making themselves well known. There is a lot of creativity that goes into these kinds of stories and retellings, and a lot of research too, as the extensive cast has a lot of different books of different genres associated with them. Dostoevsky's catalog alone would be thousands of pages in total when considering the length of Crime and Punishment and The Idiot.
A long-running show can be hard to recommend to people. Often, finding a good episode to demonstrate the best of the series is a good way to grab a friend's attention. A show with this many characters and episodes always has a few stand-outs that can help encourage people to watch.

Bungo Stray Dogs is an anime that manages to take an incredibly weird premise and turn it into seinen gold. On its face, having a bunch of super-powered characters modeled after famous authors from around the world sounds wild without proper context. However, the show manages to make it work quite nicely in its context.

Anime has some of the best redemption arcs in any medium. The powers of love, friendship, and humanity are the strongest forces in many of these shows, and can even transform a villain into a hero. However, redemption doesn’t happen the same way every time.
As a villain’s reasons for being evil are unpacked, their path to becoming a hero becomes clearer. Whether they just needed someone to show them love and another way to be or had to be put through the wringer before choosing to do the right thing, their turns are equally interesting to watch.

When Atsushi and the audience first meet Dazai, he seems like a carefree (even careless) and cheerful guy: the one big clue that he’s got deeper issues under the surface is his obsession with suicides. Later, it’s revealed that Dazai was once...

Bungou Stray Dogs may be a series that mainly focuses on action and mystery, but that does not mean it has fewer melancholic scenes than other anime. The characters all have arcs that follow their past trauma and experiences, drawing attention to the deep suffering many of them faced before coming together. Bsd quotes that come from these moments are often more than just sad reflections, they resonate in ways fans can relate to.
From Kyouka Izumi to Sakunosuke Oda, many characters have experienced complicated things, such as abandonment, death and murder, throughout their character arcs. Many of these tragic, yet memorable quotes come from the first half of the Season 1 and the darker tone of Season 2.

Mubi's retrospective Yuzo Kawashima's Post-War Japan runs January - April, 2020. Il Cinema Ritrovato will be staging a retrospective on the director in 2020.Kawashima Yūzō is one of Japan's most beloved directors, and, curiously enough, maybe also one of the most written-about. Books and special editions of magazines keep coming; only in December 2018, one of Japan's finest publishers of film books with a special interest in post-war stylists and genre masters, Wides Shuppan, celebrated the master's centennial by unleashing a brick of texts on his cinema that feels mighty definite—until something even more extensive will come up, of course. In the absence of any formalist tics or overt thematic obsessions, Kawashima, it seems, is as much an auteur to love and venerate as he's a character to wonder about—the quirky stuff of melancholic legends one obsessively tries to find in his films, like eg. seeing his ideal of...
