Im Scared For When 114 And 114.5 Get Animated And Its Because Of How Dazai Acts In Both Chapters.

i’m scared for when 114 and 114.5 get animated and it’s because of how dazai acts in both chapters.

he is so animated and emotional here and for him, that’s very out of character. it’s clear he doesn’t have a plan at the moment and is coming to the horrifying realisation of what fyodor’s ability is and what he’s just done.

a thing with studio bones though, that many other people have talked about, is how they tend to remove most of the scenes with dazai expressing thoughts outside of this “haha i knew this all along lol i always have a plan” bs that he shows a LOT.

chapter 98 vs season 5 episode 7. come on now dazai. you’re allowed to be pissed.

but here, dazai kind of HAS to panic. the whole point is that he saw NONE of this coming and that he’s only piecing it together now, when it may be too late. he couldn’t have formed a plan to combat fyodor’s plan because he never could have guessed it would actually happen. this is, in his words, the worst case scenario.

bones can’t make him act like he does know what he’s going to do next. if he didn’t he wouldn’t be as scared as he is right now.

if dazai, someone who is extremely smart and can always predict events from a huge distance, is panicking, the audience (gcse drama coming in clutch here) will know something BIG will happen, because now we have one of the more “calmer in troubling situations” characters freaking out and losing composure completely. and it’s more than fair for him to freak out considering what’s going on at the airport right now.

but, if dazai is like “oh i knew it from the start (NO THE FUCK YOU DIDN’T BTW) hehehe i know how to solve this ‘,:)” the audience (specifically anime-onlys but i think it’s time for you guys to pick up the manga) is like “oh, he’s gotten it under control, if he knew from the beginning we should be okay” when it’s anything BUT okay at the moment.

dazai is scared. and that’s fine. he’s allowed to be scared. he’s allowed to not have a plan right away. he’s allowed to mess up, to not have thought this far ahead. hopefully he can come up with something in the coming chapters, but here, the point is that he hasn’t formed any sort of counter just yet.

bones is perfectly capable of getting scenes on point! they managed to execute chapter 101’s famous scene perfectly! hopefully this scene won’t be a victim of poor adaption. this is one of my favourites with dazai so far, and it’s the most expressive i’ve ever seen him.

thanks for reading! who’s excited for chapter 119? 🩵

every preventable death caused by natural disasters should be regarded as a form of “socially accepted” homicide because that’s what it is . they were too poor to evacuate. they were too disabled to evacuate. they died. “Oh well”. “Nothing we could’ve done to prevent this.” and then it happens dozens of more times in your lifetime. I’m so sick to my stomach

yeah!! he loves them so much, i hope the panels w/ the whole agency except him have some meaning… surely they really wouldn’t have forgotten him 😭

lmaooo i know he’d think of something if there are truly are no other options available (skk please be in the new chapter PLEASE)

bringing this from twitter

i was talking about this with a friend but i would say that even though dazai hates pain, he's willing to put himself through it if it means he'll help those he cares about.

he didn't HAVE to take part in the prison breakout but he chose to anyway. he didn't have to push sigma out of the elevator (not saying he shouldn't have) and end up the way he did-

-but he did so anyway.

i think that shows just how much he cares for the agency + sigma. he's found the people he loves and will do whatever he can to keep them safe. i really am interested in how he’s gonna react when:

a. the agency is in shambles and

b. atsushi is with FYODOR. the guy he tried very hard to get rid of.

now with the more recent chapters and the state dazai's in, i'm wondering what lengths he'll go to in order to protect the agency now?

(or at least whoever’s left)

please send me your thoughts! i love having discussions :3

killer whale Dazai✨

Glad Fyodor's finally dead, everyone's alive and we can go back to solving cases and flirting fighting with the PM :D
