To All My Fellow BSD Fans Currently Freaking Out Over Chapter 101:

To all my fellow BSD fans currently freaking out over Chapter 101:

My first reaction was sheer panic, and the urge to sob my guts out throw my phone, freak out, etc.

And then I stepped back and did some thinking:

1. Asagiri has no reason to kill Chuuya. Or even Dazai for that matter. No logical reason = he won't do it. He NEVER does something mindlessly. The vampires, Akutagawa, now Chuuya... it's going to get fixed in the end. (Remember the Cannibalism arc?)

2. In the Stormbringer postscript, Asagiri specifically states that Chuuya has a long journey ahead of him. In other words, don't worry, he will be okay. :) He can't be on a long journey with a specific (and as of yet unspecified) destination if he randomly drowns in prison.

3. Dazai pretends he doesn't care about Chuuya, but it's always so obvious that he does, even when he says he doesn't. (Just looks at the flashbacks he has, and his posture.) He has to kill Fyodor, but Chuuya will survive. He wouldn't make a plan like this if Chuuya were to die.

4. Consider how many characters have "died" in this arc: Sigma, Tachihara, Jouno, Akutagawa, Fukuchi... Asagiri does not really kill main characters except in /prequels/, (i.e. Oda, The Flags.) Chuuya will be fine.

So... have a good cry if you need it, eat some mochi ice cream, process All The Feels ... and be patient. Asagiri is a brilliant author, even if he likes inflicting pain. Everything will be okay. May the next chapter come swiftly. <3

Neku day :) the boy

PREACH

You tell her Neku

i love him sm 😭

tecchou: what if. what if i was very evil and very strong and i ran toward you at a very fast speed

kenji: my arms are strong. i would catch you and hug you 

I don't know how people have suddenly decided Chuuya is a trusting person, like sir, have we read the same Manga/Light Novels or was Chuuya never telling the Sheep about his past or assuming the Flags were gonna kill him when he found out they worked for Mori part of his trusting personality?

Like, what's more interesting, Dazai being an unstrustworthy manipulative asshole and Chuuya still trusting him because of a character flaw? or

Dazai being an untrustworthy manipulative asshole and Chuuya, a person who has never relied on anyone having his back, like, ever, for some inexplicable reason extending that trust to him? Someone more demon than person? Dazai would lose his fucking shit.
