Starving and left for dead on the streets of Yokohama, Atsushi Nakajima’s only goal was to survive one more night after being cast out of his orphanage. He expected a cold end, not the sight of a suicidal eccentric named Osamu Dazai floating down the river. Rescuing Dazai doesn't just earn Atsushi a meal; it drags him into the heart of the Armed Detective Agency, a chaotic group of investigators who wield supernatural abilities inspired by the giants of literature. Atsushi is desperate for a place to call home, but his new life is instantly threatened by the Port Mafia and a terrifying man-eating tiger that seems to follow his every footstep. He soon learns that in a city where shadows have teeth and poems become weapons, his own hidden power is the only thing standing between him and a shallow grave. This isn't just a battle for the city; it is a broken boy’s search for the worth of his own life amidst a war of geniuses and killers.
