Bungo Stray Dogs Wan! (文豪ストレイドッグス わん!)

Stray Dogs.

A pack of vagrant dogs roams the main streets of Yokohama.

Beast Beneath the Hydrant!

Breakfast will soon be ours!

Ruffshoumon!

What's the matter, Akutagawa?

A scent.

Oh, yeah?

Hey, get out of there!

What's the matter, Atsushi?

You're not crossing the finish line?

It's them.

We found you.

Does this mean that we're in the right place, then?

Seems so.

The military police reported lots of stray dogs here.

Oh, yeah, extermination.

A bit of fun, and then we're done.

Nomnoms.

The Hunting Dogs!

It's Gen'ichiro.

We should get out of here.

How pathetic.

You're just going to tuck your tail and run?

Ah, you noticed my tail's always in a loop.

That's not a compliment!

You can't escape us.

It's your own fault, dogs,

for looking so mangy and undersized.

Actually, we're all quite healthy.

There are lots of nice people around here

who keep us well-fed.

You do have glossy coats.

I'd just give it up if I were you.

Our noses are a million times better than a human's.

Well, ours are a billion times better.

What are we supposed to be guilty of, anyway?

We're completely innocent.

Well, uh.

This place is overrun with strays.

You have a point there.

I guess the problem is that we're strays.

Should we find some humans to adopt us?

-Hell, no! That's so lame! -And way too much work.

Plus, having to follow the orders of a human master

would be a miserable existence for any dog.

Yeah, you tell them that, Atsushi.

-Me? -He doesn't have to.

We can hear you.

That's enough. Let's do this!

Come again?

"Ritual chew toy Amenogozen!"

That sword.

Oh, no. Run, everyone!

It's no use.

She changed breeds and is blocking our path!

Special arfbility, Plum Blossoms in the Dog Park!

Not plums! Pits are poison to dogs!

I'm scared!

Fukuzawa.

Sorry, Gen'ichiro.

What's the deal, weretiger-uh, weredog?

Who are you calling dog, huh?

Let's defeat them together.

But how can we?

I'll use my special arfbility to make you stronger.

But wait, if you do that,

then you're going to end up naked.

My life is a trial.

Curse this cruel world!

Will we ever be able to live in fully clothed peace together?

I'm afraid not, because this mad dog

is going to tear you to pieces!

What? A mad dog?

You mean you didn't get your rabies vaccines?

Mm.

-Uh, did we? -I'm not quite sure.

After so many surgeries, it's hard to keep track.

What does that mean?

We'll check our records and come right back.

You can live for now.

TTFN!

All right, off to breakfast, then?

And so unbeknownst to the Armed Detective Agency of Yokohama,

the stray dogs' endless battle for freedom continues.

Let's throw a crêêpe party, Kyouka.

You can make them?

Mm-hmm.

With the help of this hot plate.

All you have to do is gather 100 grams of pancake mix,

one egg,

200 milliliters of milk,

some butter and whipped cream,

plus your choice of filling.

Stir the living daylights

out of the pancake mix, milk, egg, and sugar.

And once the hot plate is warm, melt some butter.

Ladle a thin layer of batter on the hot plate.

Most importantly, it needs to be thin, but not too thin.

The batter must be spread evenly.

Once the edges get crispy,

carefully lift and flip it with the chopsticks.

Hup!

Once the other side cooks a little, plate it.

Top it with chopped fruit and whipped cream.

Then just fold it like this.

All done.

Lastly, wrap it in cute paper to make it look store-bought.

Here you go.

Oh!

So tasty!

Do you want to try making one yourself now?

-Can I? -Yes, of course!

You can even make savory crêêpes, like with tuna or sausage.

It's super fun to make them for your friends.

Chuuya, I made you this.

I'm not eating that.

Next, I'm going to use this takoyaki pan.

You can make takoyaki?

Mm-hmm.

The pancake mix doesn't seem multipurpose for nothing.

Now combine the pancake mix with eggs and milk,

then just pour it into the pan.

Voilàà! Little baby castellas!

You can add almonds

and draw a face with chocolate to make--

Bunnies!

Nailed it!

Isn't this fun?
