Synopsis

Atsushi Nakajima is on the brink of death after being kicked out of his orphanage. With no food and nowhere to go, all hope seems lost—until he saves a mysterious man called Osamu Dazai from drowning. Much to his partner Doppo Kunikida's irritation, Dazai offers Atsushi a meal and reveals they work for the Armed Detective Agency, an organization of gifted individuals who take care of criminal cases the authorities cannot. The two ask Atsushi for his assistance in tracking down a supernatural tiger that has been wreaking havoc throughout the city, and he reluctantly agrees. After they resolve the case, Dazai offers him a position in the agency. But the job is about to get a lot more dangerous as the Port Mafia, the local crime syndicate, begins to move against them. Caught in the middle of a turf war, Atsushi must master his newfound special ability in order to protect himself, his new friends, and the entire city.

  • theonewithda_gun To clarify things up, most of the characters here will be reprised by the same actors that played them in the stage play and the Bungo Stray Dogs: BEAST movie. However, for the other characters who aren't Japanese (like the members of The Guild for example), you could cast non Japanese actors and suggest your own original castings (Fyodor and Rando are probably an exception, but u can cast non Japanese actors too to be more original)

    • theonewithda_gun   @johndavis_1994 only Atsushi, Dazai, Doppo, Ranpo, Yosano, Kyouka, Tanizaki, Kenji, Naomi, Akutagawa, Chuya, Odasaku, Ango and Shibusawa will be reprised by the same actors as the stage version. They reprised the role for the Beast movie as well, cuz why not? For Gin, while she never appeared in the stage plays, she'll be reprised by the same actress who plays her in the Beast movie. For the other characters that didn't appear in Beast, u can cast original choices for the characters. For Rimbaud and Fyodor, u can cast non Japanese actors as well to be more original (even though Fyodor also appears in Beast and played by the same actor as the stage play).

    • theonewithda_gun   Also another clarification, i only had the stage actors reprising some roles if they're also active in movies and TV. If they're only active on stage and never been in any movie or TV shows, then i won't cast them. I only cast them if they've been in movies or dramas even if the roles they played were mostly minor/guest appearances.
