imagine if at the end of the manga he "dies" through everyone he's come to care about dying or, you know, being in an entirely different universe via Book shenanigans, wouldn't that be fun haha :)

You bringing up how fucked up his words to Dazai were is so important to me cause I was in a horrible headspace a few months before I got the the dark era episodes and if I had watched that episode back then I would have spiralled. I know everyone is different abd i keep seeing people defend his words as being exactly what Dazai needed to hear but now we have a depressed man trying to kill himself for a good cause so where do we go from here?

No, ofcourse he didnt mean to do that but he did. Dude was dying, he didnt have the time to sit and explain things to this kid but what he said was not what Dazai needed to hear.

i’m so glad there is a kindred spirit out there on this.

yes, he was dying and i don’t blame him for what he said. yes, i want to write a think piece on how maybe everytime dazai is happy at the ada he gets a little flash of oda telling him he’ll never find a will to live, even on the light side. perhaps i want him to question if this happiness is real or not, if it’s just “the world being more beautiful.” perchance he does not realize that making his world beautiful also means giving him a will to live.

oda wanted the best for dazai, but that doesn’t mean he got it.

Who's to say Dazai and Chuuya haven't been legally married this whole time to avoid having to testify against each other in court?

I'll do you one better. Like the goddess of wisdom, Minerva, sending her sacred bird, the owl, out into the dusky sky and laughing to herself at the sight of it all.
