Ongoing Anime Series That Are Worth Keeping Up With
Bungo Stray Dogs
While not as prolific or lengthy as other series on this list, Bungo Stray Dogs more than makes up for it with a story and characters fans can’t help but want to keep up with.
Set in a world where gifted individuals are able to manifest special powers and abilities, the plot sees the vagabond Atsushi Nakajima’s life take a turn for the better when he is enlisted into the Armed Detective Agency.
Tasked with solving crimes committed by ability users, the Agency serves as an underground task force comprised of individuals who want to use there own special abilities for good, whether that means healing the ill or taking on criminal organizations.
While this setup may sound like typical shonen fare, the dilemmas it presents through its characters help it shine as something special.
How people deal with the isolation that comes from being different, and how they can grow when they are offered companionship and acceptance, are particularly well handled and leave you rooting for the heroes and villains alike to find a better life.
Throw in a slew of literary references and nods for book lovers and you’ve got a series that is well worth returning to when ever a new season pops up.
