Bungou Stray Dogs - Bezpańscy Literaci. Tom 9

The mix of powers and suspense kept me hooked, but I wonder how much of that was planned from the start versus evolved during writing.

The personal histories are so compelling—did these background stories influence how the characters interact in this volume?

The variety of supernatural abilities is impressive—I'm curious whether these were based on existing myths or entirely created for the story.
