sigma deserves financial and psychological compensation for dealing with their shenanigans:

ID 1: a tweet made to look as if sigma had wrote it saying: am not against gays. But you are all so annoying. God bles. Chuuya, Dazai, Fyodor and Nikolai are in the background.

ID 2: another tweet made to look as if sigma had wrote it saying: the reason I’ve always felt so outcast in my friend group is because apparently they’re all in a polyamorous relationship and I didn’t fucking know. Dazai, Chuuya, Fyodor and Nikolai are faded in the background.

Bro was so gay he flashed back to the s2 opening

[amethystroselily]

Can’t wait until Chuuya regains consciousness and Dazai’s stuck with two people berating him for his questionable decisions and even more questionable personality while he tries to escape that prison. I hope Sigma and Chuuya team up in the ultimate attempt to criticize him to his face.

I'd like to think that Dazai and Fyodor have spoken through the PA system meaning even the other high security prisoners in their cells heard all the little confessions by Dazai or Fyodor talking about their flimsy partnership

[whathorselegs]

Here's why I think Chuuya pretending to be a vampire can easily make sense.

Plausible deniability.

Meursault is not a Japanese prison. I really doubt being in the mafia would have enough protections for Chuuya to stage a prison break there under normal circumstances.

But they weren't under normal circumstances, by that point half the world was turned into vampires. The people that were left in charge also knew that the vampires were connected to the Decay Of Angels and they think that the Armed Detective Agency is the DOA. So following this thread of thought, it would make sense to them if the vampires broke into Meursault to free one of their key players. Dazai.

Chuuya would appear on all the cameras as a victim of the hivemind, not in control of his actions, and then wouldn't be held accountable for anything he'd done there. That's also why he couldn't really break character either.

I don't think he had any idea about the little death match Fyodor and Dazai had going on. His orders were just to break out Dazai. He simply got there, started causing havoc and looking for Dazai, only he came across Fyodor first. Fyodor who was not in his cell, but walking around freely and seemed very pleased to see Chuuya. I doubt Fyodor sat there and explained the game to Chuuya, who he thought was a mindless vampire ready to obey, he probably just started giving orders. So Chuuya plays along, figuring Fyodor would eventually lead him to Dazai. And he can't break character.

He's right of course, Fyodor does lead him to Dazai in a way, to his voice at least, as it plays through a speaker and starts telling him he's about to drown him.

Also side note: Please, I know its just a funny joke, but Mori did not superglue the fangs, he probably just used dental glue, or dental cement as it's also called, because its just that strong. Which to me is funnier because that's the stuff they use to put caps in, which means Chuuya is stuck with those fangs unless he sees a dentist.

bsd s5 ep11 spoilers

About the debate if the manga is going to follow the anime's footsteps (apparently impossible because Fyodor's hand isn't injured), it occurred to me that if it isn't, Dazai may yet not be alive after all, ie the skk angst might be manga-real and not skk fucking around right under Fyodor's nose.

Why?

Because of Sigma.

Because, unless Fyodor survives and or the next antagonist also has a super genius or two like Ranpo and Dazai on their side, it's going to be a tough sale.

To Sigma: Dazai went out of his way to save his life. Sigma even states that in the battle for control over him, Dazai won. Sigma went and stole every secret Fyodor has. This means that if Sigma survives, which is likely (and possibly joins the agency), Dazai's proof of character development will maintain his influence on the narrative. Sigma becomes Dazai's legacy. Sskk become written in stone in his memory (not like they need much more of a push anymore). Cue guilt, responsibility, what would Dazai do, and all that other fun stuff.

Which leads us to two, the next antagonist. Like many, I'm assuming it's going to be the Order of the Clock Tower (H. G. Wells! Adam, maybe? That scientist who made Adam, whatshername!). But with Dazai and all-breaks-removed Ranpo on the ADA's side (unless the deal with the PM strikes here), the OotCT is going to find itself out manoeuvred pretty quickly, no? Like with the Guild, as soon as they get their hands on information (deducing which is what Ranpo excels at, not to mention that Dazai presumably already knows a lot since unlike the Guild, the OotCT seems to have a pretty established profile and it's implied (? someone refresh my memory) that the PM had some dealings with them at the end of SB. Simply put, unless the OotCT has a strategic genius on their side, I have a hard time seeing them as legitimate threats. Meaning, that to make them more dangerous...it would suit just to remove a card from the ADA's hand. Dazai is in prime position to be removed.

Also, the end of SB foreshadowed a coming 'storm' and Chuuya killing Dazai while dehumanized and under mind control would probably trigger something in the long run.

(Don't know how coherent my thoughts are right now, sorry, it's too early.)

the antidote

i might be losing my mind but what if this was not just an animation inconsistency and Nikolai actually gave Fyodor a different case and Fyodor noticed, which is why he didn't immediately take the antidote

we already know how careful Fyodor is and that he notices even the smallest details (eg memorizing "the small blemishes on the card backs")

tbh I can't think of another reason for them to show us what's inside up close and it could explain/justify Fyodor's mistrust in a future chapter if we get to see/hear his pov

as for the manga, we've seen the antidote only in ch.97 and i wonder if it's going to be different in the scene where nikolai offers it to fyodor (if the manga follows the anime? this sounds weird)

Edit: it might have been another part of the game - Nikolai trying to see if Fyodor'd notice the difference; otherwise he'd have chosen the exact same case
