Bungo Stray Dogs
文豪ストレイドッグスFor weeks, Atsushi Nakajima's orphanage has been plagued by a mystical tiger that only he seems to be aware of. Suspected to be behind the strange incidents, the 18-year-old is abruptly kicked out of the orphanage and left hungry, homeless, and wandering through the city. While starving on a riverbank, Atsushi saves a rather eccentric man named Osamu Dazai from drowning. Whimsical suicide enthusiast and supernatural detective, Dazai has been investigating the same tiger that has been terrorizing the boy. Together with Dazai's partner Doppo Kunikida, they solve the mystery, but its resolution leaves Atsushi in a tight spot. As various odd events take place, Atsushi is coerced into joining their firm of supernatural investigators, taking on unusual cases the police cannot handle, alongside his numerous enigmatic co-workers.

Super interesting concept…I’m a sucker for anything that has to do with supernatural abilities/super powers and mystery. Lovely animation and character conception. Wish the character histories would be a little less vague and seemingly random. I give high scores to animes that have deep meanings or cover topics and issues that are important in life…didn’t really see it in this first season..But one thing that I have a major issue with is everyone that’s important invincible/immortal??? It’s like impossible to die in this show lmao given the amount of injuries and “fatal” blows the characters have gone through.

summary: An anime with interesting characters, pleasant animation and shounen elements.
While obviously adapted from a manga and all the implications that brings with it (arcs instead of a fully fleshed-out story), it still is a enjoyable show to watch.
The shounen elements are light so they aren't off-puting for veteran anime fans, they include: a helpless boy with a strong power (gift), slapstick comedy and invincible plot armor. The interesting characters and their interaction with each other make up for that though.
Another positive thing about this show is the animation and off-the-wall character designs. Going for a more expressive, surreal look than a realistic one.

Spoiler free review:-
The fight sequences are awesome to watch, story is good,The gags in between really crack me up, this show is fucking hilarious I love the characters,Story check,suspense check, character development check, Action check,Comedy check, Music and sound check.... What more do you need? Anyone who watches any kind of anime will love it, Till now can't find a single fault with it(watched till 10th episode). Only one thing I regret is its not Gory and nobody dies a little childish. This is a gem for 2016 anime. 10/10. The ED song Namae wo Yobu yo by Luck Life is stuck to my head since days, love the song can't stop humming it.
