Kemono Jihen

Kohachi Inugami, a detective specialising in the occult, is sent to investigate a rash of unusual animal deaths in a remote mountain village; he meets an unusual boy nicknamed Dorotabo, who is ostracised by the other children.

Kabane meets Akira and Shiki, two other Kemono working for Inugami, and gets off to a rocky start with Shiki; the office are sent out to deal with an incident.

Police Station Superintendent Inari, herself a kitsune Kemono, asks to meet Kabane at the station, but it becomes clear she has an ulterior motive when she asks to see his life stone.

The team helps a love-struck client track down the object of his affection; Akira patterns himself after Kabane, and the two are assigned a case.

When the vampire Mihai, a longtime acquaintance of Inugami's, stays at the office, Kabane and the others wind up in an arm-wrestling competition with him.

Kabane, Shiki, and Akira embark on a dangerous mission set up by Mihai and break into a company controlled by a trio of kanonba sisters.
