Stalked by a beastly white tiger, Atsushi Nakajima has no idea that the menace lives inside him—a power that catches the attention of the Armed Detective Agency. Using inhuman abilities to combat crime, this team takes Atsushi under the wing of their most eccentric member, Dazai. Together, they tear through mafia-muddled mysteries while enemies keep an eye on the tiger’s lofty bounty.

Reviews

a bit of a disjointed start, but it flicks a switch half way and becomes quite a satisfying show overall

It's not the best thing ever, but it's also not a complete waste of time.

Strong characters, depth & humor make this so much more than just a "good vs. bad" turf war
