Description
Nakajima Atsushi was kicked out of his orphanage, and now he has no place to go and no food. While he is standing by a river, on the brink of starvation, he rescues a man whimsically attempting suicide. That man is Dazai Osamu, and he and his partner Kunikida are members of a very special detective agency. They have supernatural powers, and deal with cases that are too dangerous for the police or the military. They're tracking down a tiger that has appeared in the area recently, around the time Atsushi came to the area. The tiger seems to have a connection to Atsushi, and by the time the case is solved, it is clear that Atsushi's future will involve much more of Dazai and the rest of the detectives.
Well, there's only two chapters out, but what's there so far is plenty interesting. The plot's a lot like a lot of other manga I've read (people with powers in a detective agency) but there's a pretty good surprise twist (well, maybe a little predictable) at the end of the chapters. It's fun, and the characters are already likeable and while you know there's plenty we don't know about them yet, they're funny and expressive. Dazai in particular is hilarious(?) with his half-hearted obsession with trying to commit suicide. I get the feeling there might be a sad-backstory reason for that though. Maybe. The art is beautiful, which is always a plus for me. Shame it hasn't been translated very far though.
