Bungou Stray Dogs Expected Plot
The finale 5 episodes in season 3 of “Bungo Stray Dogs” are an adaptation of the ongoing story, which is known as “The Cannibalism Arc.”
Most importantly, the sequence opens with Rats within the House of the Dead, an organization of criminals headed by a man known as Fyodor Dostoevsky, and called “Demon” by Osamu Dazai.
Dostoevsky is a regular character in the manga series, as it continues beyond its Cannibalism Arc, so fans are likely to see him return in the future when the anime develops.
The story that follows “Bungo Stray Dogs” is called “The Decay of Angels Arc”.
It is, as it should be, another criminal group called Decay of Angels.
Dostoevsky actually is one of the group members. The remainder of the group comprises villains who are named Nikolai Gogol, Bram Stoker, Ochi Fukuchi, and Sigma.
In April 2021, it appears that the Decay of the Angels Arc was still in progress which means it’s likely to be the foundation for the entire “Bungo Stray Dogs” Season 4.
Since all seasons have 12 episodes and we can anticipate Season 4 to include 12 episodes filled with high-octane action-comedy, and perhaps romance with our favorite detectives, as well as the battle Atsushi has promised.
The odds are not too bad but it is definitely high.
