In 2018, Bones produced a film titled Bungo Stray Dogs: Dead Apple. A manga adaptation of two volumes by a different artist was developed in the same year.[4][5] A series of light novels have been written by the same writer and artist from the original manga. While some focus on Osamu Dazai's past and different spin-offs, a gaiden story was produced where Atsushi Nakajima is alternately portrayed as a member from Port Mafia.[6] Another spin-off, Bungo Stray Dogs: Another Story - Yukito Ayatsuji vs. Natsuhiko Kyogoku, was also written.
