i feel like dazai and anime dazai are gonna become so separated anime dazai becomes his own character and then people are going to start drawing animezai x chuuya x dazai or animezai x dazai until its like the onceler and suddenly every zai is entirely different and people say "i ship wanzai x chuuya and animezai with magicalzai"

so i drew this to prepare

[weretiger-be-my-horse]

so a while ago i read a theory on reddit (can't recall the user, sorry) that said that asagiri purposely shortened the manga chapters after season 4 was released so that the anime adaptation caught up to the manga. if you are a manga reader, you already know this is true and that season 5 episode 11 goes in fact beyond the manga plot.

this reddit user gave various reasons for this. one (and perhaps the most plausible one) said that it was to force manga readers to watch the season 5 finale. but i think i recall that another option may have been to tie up the manga and the anime, since parallel worlds have a special and pivotal role in bsd (we literally have the beast universe there) and therefore asagiri would be treating the manga and anime storylines as parallel worlds/universes.

and i can't help but worry because i was so relieved when dazai and fukuzawa came out of the conflict alright and everyone started to wake up. we got the detectives back, the hunting dogs (except for yosano, tachihara and jouno) and some port mafia members such as akutagawa and chuuya. both enemies (fyodor and fukuchi) were defeated AND killed. this puts the entirety of the fandom at ease.

the last few seconds of the episode show atsushi and akutagawa fighting against an ame-no-gozen wielder, who has fukuchi's scars and is also wearing a mask similar to the one he's wearing in an official art. so it's HEAVILY hinted that it's him.

now, the thing is, what if the manga takes another direction? what if that fukuchi is there because in the manga the ada loses and fukuchi/fyodor uses the book to jump into the reality where they don't win, which is the anime?

like now we manga readers are sort of relieved because the anime showed us how the arc ends, right? we just watched it. we will read that in the october chapter, right?

but what if

Very important message form Asagiri, DO NOT DISMISS THE ANIME! THERE ARE THINGS IN THE ANIME THAT ARE NOT POSSIBLE IN THE MANGA SO DON'T ACT LIKE IT DOESN'T MATTER!

This is from an interview asagiri did here

There is a lot of anime hate going on rn so just a reminder that even though there is stuff from the manga that isn't in the anime, there is also stuff in the anime that you can't find in the manga. DO NOT DISSMISS EITHER OF THEM.

Consume both with an open mind and enjoy them as much as possible! :)

Dazai: Last night I had a dream that you and I bought matching side by side mansions.

Dazai: But there was a secret tunnel connecting your front yard to my back yard.

Chuuya:

Dazai: What do you think it means?

Chuuya:😶

he's done. he's so done.

Fyodor: I donate my blood in the hopes that my blood will overpower theirs and take control of their body, so I can gain another vessel to use at my own will.

Dazai: Is that why you haven't been attending my tea parties?

Fyodor: What?

Dazai: I have to invite Chuuya! And sometimes Atsushi.

Fyodor: Why would I go to one of your 'Tea Parties'. You're seriously just going to poison my drink.

Dazai: I don't poison the drinks. Chuuya does.

Chuuya in the back, pouring poison into a tea cup: It's so much fun!

Port Mafia Black {Dazai}

▪︎ Synopsis: Dazai prefers it when he is drunk because memories of all the people he cared about flood his brain

▪︎ Pairing: Dazai x fem!reader

▪︎ Genre: angst

▪︎ Trigger warnings: mentions of suicide, consumption of alcohol, mentions of vomiting, hallucinations

As much as he thinks he has achieved self-awareness, Dazai Osamu is far from knowing himself. What he does know is that he can't bare thinking of the past sober even though that would clearly lead to him ending things. Wasn't that his goal after all?

And when Dazai drinks in order to think about his past, he drinks a lot. Bottles of beer, soju, whiskey, vodka, you name it. Anything to get him drunk.

It's like a ritual at this point. His own little séance of summoning the ghosts of the past. The balcony door closed, just like the bathroom door -the last time he vomited, he hadn't even got the chance to run to the bathroom so it was useless- and the only thing providing light there being a small kerosene lamp he had no idea how he had gotten.

And the ritual starts. Dazai will slowly open the bottles and then start drinking. One shot of whiskey, two shots of vodka, three shots of soju and the list went on. Given the fact that he hadn't eaten since his lunch break at ADA the alcohol would hit him harder than always expected.

So here he was, his right leg bent, his hands behind his head, laying down on his futon with the world spinning around him. And it felt nice. It felt nice not having to pretend to be that type of drunk who couldn't stop talking, or have others around him trying to give him coffee to sober up.

He didn't want to sober up.

He wanted to close his eyes and see Oda talking to him about... it didn't matter what Oda would talk to him about as long as he talked to him. He wanted to close his eyes and find himself sitting at the bar of Lupin even if that meant that he would have to go through everything he did in the Port Mafia again.

You see, Dazai Osamu deep inside him, has no regrets. He likes to believe that he does and for a few very superficial things, he actually does but for the most part? He doesn't give a shit. It has been so long since he felt like himself that at this point everything he has done seem like puzzle pieces that if he manages to connect then he'll find himself.

Don't get him wrong though, he likes ADA. It is better than the Port Mafia but...

His hallucinations in this drunken state always start the same. That's how he likes them. Him sitting with Oda and Ango at Lupin, talking about their day with the exception that he is not eighteen anymore. Suddenly he gets a phone call and as he looks at his phone, he sees that it's Chuuya. That bastard haunts him even when he is drunk but he wouldn't have it any other way. Chuuya completes the scenario after all.

He wants to believe it's about work and it partly is because Chuuya starts complaining to him about how he should have taken care of the paperwork and that the next time he catches him messing with his wine bottles he'll kill him as painfully as possible. And that is when the complains stop and Chuuya lowers his voice, almost to a whisper.

"She is back" He will say and the next thing Dazai knows is he is back in the Port Mafia building, heading to the terrace. Two heads will turn to look at him, waiting for him to take a seat next to them on the ledge.

There is always this... problem. You, much like Oda, are sitting in the middle. Dazai doesn't know what that means because you're very much alive, still working for the Port Mafia even though he hasn't seen you in years but he rolls with it because you are there.

Right when Chuuya starts complaining about him being slow and all that, Dazai takes a seat next to you and for the first time he doesn't think of jumping off the edge. He turns to look at you, a slightly troubled expression on your face and he reaches out to pat your head just like he used to do back then.

And that is when everything starts to feel off because Chuuya offers him a glass of wine but Dazai knows that he physically can't drink anymore because he will throw up and the hungover will be so bad that he won't be able to go to work tomorrow and Kunikida will start yelling.

But in his "dream" there is no Kunikida. He is not supposed to be working for the ADA, he is not even supposed to know them. In a moment of panic, Dazai takes the entire bottle out of Chuuya's hand and gulps it down in one go.

He can't seem to shut his brain down. All those little voices that tell him that what he is dreaming about is not real and he should wake up and sober himself up immediately... they won't shut up.

Slowly he starts hating himself for it. Because when all of this is done, the only thing he can think of is what Higuchi had told him back at that alley.

A part of him feels at peace when thinking about ADA. He knows he has done the right thing according to Oda. But deep inside him, deeper than he actually thinks, he knows his heart is Port Mafia black and he wants back what he once had.

Imma be honest, I just wanted to draw a pretty illustration inside my comfort zone lmao

So sigma :3

Fyodor Dostoevsky, but-

I'm mentally prepared to take on the flood I have summoned by drawing this..-

It smacked me in the head tonight- "C o m b a t g e a r"

So I went and made Fyodor a sniper since he seems to like sniping people in every sense of the word.

-Nix🌙

[weretiger-be-my-horse]

i sure hope sigma is alive because that means we would have him, atsushi and kenji working for the agency and it would be the purest workplace if it weren't for the masochistic doctor, the suicidal ex-mafioso and the alabama siblings

This episode was AMAZING! I know they messed up the Akutagawa scene but they did everything else so well! Can we please stop the crazy anime hate that's been going on recently?

WE GOT BRAM!!! HIS VOICE IS SO GOOD! I love how tired he sounds, it fits perfectly.

Hirotsu saving Tachihara while fighting of the vampire curse

I love Tachihara's little smile when he keeps nearly exposing Fukuchi, so innocent

Fukuchi really did feel terrifying in this episode, his voice actor really sells it too.

Tachihara looks so scared here, its so well done. He was fine with dying, but the idea of being turned into a puppet is so much worse for him. (the blood looking like tears is an amazing touch)

Over all this episode had so much awesome stuff, yes it wasn't perfect but overall it was defiantly one of the best in season 5 so far. I loved the animation and the voice acting, so can we please not let one bad decision ruin a really good episode? I keep seeing so much hate towards bones about this episode despite how great 90% of it was.
