“The Lone Swordsman and the Famous Detective”
A cinematic flashback
「太宰、中也、十五歳」 (Dazai, Chūya, Jūgo-Sai)
“Dazai, Chuuya, Fifteen Years Old”
Another jump back in time.
「羅生門と虎と最後の大君/若し今日この荷物を降ろして善いのなら」 (Rashoumon to Tora to Saigo no Taikun / Moshi Kyou Kono Nimotsu o Oroshi te Yoi no nara)
“Rashoumon, the Tiger and the Last Emperor” / “If I May Shed Away My Burden Now”
Wow, this season of Bungou Stray Dogs has completely blown me away! Much like the second season of Noragami did, this second cour exceeded all my expectations coming in.
「其の一『ポオと乱歩』/ 其の二『天の海をゆく白鯨のありて』」 (Sono Ichi: Poo to Ranpo / Sono Ni: Ten no Umi wo Yuku Shiro Kujira no Ari te)
“Part 1: Poe and Rampo / Part 2: Moby Dick, Swimming in the Sky”
The calm before the storm.
「頭は間違うことがあっても / 双つの黒」 (Atama wa Machigau Koto ga Atte mo / Soutsu no Kuro)
“Though the Mind May Be Wrong” / “Double Black”
The bromance is real this week and I love it!
「紛争の戦略/ウィル・オブ・タイクーン」 (Funsou no Senryaku/Wiru Obu Taikuun)
“The Strategy of Conflict” / “Will of Tycoon”
Ougai starts the war by provoking everyone to attack each other on all fronts.

“Bungou Stray Dogs” / “Three Companies Conflict”
…And it’s game on!
「いつか海の見える部屋で」 (Itsuka Umi no Mieru Heya de)
“A Room Where We Can Someday See the Ocean”
What starts off as an impressive episode, ends with an impressive cliffhanger.
「戻れない場所」 (Moderenai Basho)
“Nowhere to Return”
It seems like Bungou Stray Dogs will be taking the prequel route with this season, focusing more on Oda than Dazai but still keeping it within the Port Mafia.
「黒の時代」 (Kuro no Jidai)
“The Dark Age”
Bungou Stray Dog returns with a focus on my favorite character and hints of his secret past life.
