Bungo Stray Dogs Manga Delayed Indefinitely Due to “Unforeseen Circumstances”

By Ashley De MesaSeptember 29, 2022

The official Twitter of Bungo Stray Dogs announced that the manga will be on a hiatus. This meant that the manga will not have a new chapter on the upcoming issue of Kadokawa’s Young Ace Comics. This latest November issue is set to be published on October 4, 2022. The reasons for the hiatus were not disclosed, stating it as “unforeseen circumstances”. It was also not specified how long the hiatus will be. Well, Bungo Stray Dogs fans will have to wait.

This was not the first time the Bungo Stray Dogs manga ever went on hiatus. The first one happened last January 2021. The reasons were also due to “unforeseen circumstances” as well. They specifically stated that it will only be 1-month long hiatus. This time, however, there was no definite length.

Check the announcing tweet below:

Bungo Stray Dogs Story

Bungo Stray Dogs is centered around an orphaned boy named Atsushi Nakajima. He was kicked out of the orphanage, as he was considered “useless”. He was left to fend for himself in the streets. He ended up starving because of his own hesitation to rob someone. His life turned upside down when he rescued a man named Osamu Dazai from drowning.

Osamu Dazai works for the Armed Detective Agency where people with supernatural abilities are working. They handle criminal cases that are beyond an ordinary police’s capabilities. He offered Atsushi an opportunity to work for them. Specifically Dazai and his partner, Doppo Kunikida, are tracking down a mysterious tiger attacking the city. Atsushi reluctantly agreed.

Atsushi also discovered that he also has a supernatural ability as well. He has to master his own power to become a force for good. Now that there is an incoming war between the Armed Detective Agency and the crime syndicate, Port Mafia.
