Bungo Stray Dogs - Tome 19

The mix of powers and crime-solving kept me hooked, but I wonder if this balance was planned from the start or evolved during writing.

There were some moments that felt a bit slower, but I wonder if that was to build tension or character depth—what do others think?

The powers are so unique and thematically tied to their personalities. I’m curious whether these abilities were designed around their backstories or the other way around.
