I Wasn't Trying To Be Rude I Was Just Stating My Thoughts. ;^; Sorry If I Come Across That Way.

I wasn't trying to be rude I was just stating my thoughts. ;^; sorry if I come across that way.

But it's fine,I like canon SKK too and I see ur point.

can i bitch about how much i hate how most people ship soukoku ?? because omg please stop uwuifying them i am going to lose my mind. i enjoy their canon dynamic so much and everyone just seems to throw out how complicated they are as partners to put them in cute fluffy scenarios. ughghhhggghhh

I really do wanna talk about Chuuya's tough guy act though because...it's something that could easily be mischaractarized as toxic masculinity except for the fact that it has nothing to do with gender roles. Chuuya isn't afraid to appear feminine except when people (re: Dazai) directly make fun of him for it. Hell, he respects the shit out of Kouyou and she's nothing but femininity.

But his inability to appear vulnerable or soft is directly a by-product of the "I am the strongest person therefore I have to act strong" mentality that he can't seem to let go of. It's funny because everything about it (unable to show negative emotions except anger, not letting people see him cry, the agressiveness, etc.) are all such Gender(tm) things but they're not about gender?? Idk I just find it facinating.

Do you ever think in the absolutely devastating contrast between dazai’s reaction to odasaku’s death vs chuuya’s to the flag’s? About how Dazai is generally seen as cold and emotionless but odasaku’s death is one of the few moments in which Dazai shows pure, genuine, /unadulterated emotion/. One of the few moments in which he wasn’t the demon prodigy or this omnipotent being and just someone suffering because they just lost their best friend? About how chuuya is his opposite and is this giant ball of strong /loud/ emotions, about how he is by far the most expressive character in the whole story but when he saw his friends die, he had to keep a blank face? About how he consciously fought the urge to scream? About how he was falling apart but he /forced/ himself to keep his emotions at bay because he put albatross needs over his own pain? Detached, apathetic and always in control Dazai Osamu was overwhelmed by emotion and crumbling apart, meanwhile loud, expressive and impulsive Nakahara chuuya was forced into quietness. I just find fascinating that they showed completely different reactions of what they usually show to the world but is precisely that what makes this scenes hurt so fucking much.

Anyway, just a midnight thought

"It's true that Dazai wants Chuuya dead and constantly leaves him hanging."

I'mma be that one bitch, I disagree, Dazai doesn't want Chuuya to die. If he did he would've killed him a long time ago, In Stormbringer, He said that he wanted to see Chuuya suffer as a human being. Also stormbringer, He sacrifice his suicide plan to save Chuuya's life. If Dazai wanted him dead he would've gone through suicide plan than to worry about Mori's "Double suicide" quote.

Dazai is an asshole, But I don't he doesn't care for Chuuya. In the episode where he left Chuuya alone after the fight lovecraft.Not only did Dazai fold his clothes but, In the blue ray DVD omake, He also had the time to sew the word "Hatrack" On Chuuya's jacket. Hinting that after the fight with lovecraft Dazai stayed for a while before leaving him there. lmao

" Well Chuuya knows that if Dazai dies he can't use his ability."

Chuuya trustes Dazai to nullify him when he is using corruption. But, That doesn't mean He won't use corruption without Dazai being there. (The hat he wears technically symbolizes this) Chuuya is very selfless character, So if it come down to it. For city or Port mafia, he will use corruption even if Dazai is not there to nullify him.

Time for me to have a rant about bsd | Soukoku

Dazai's ability is No Longer Human, right? And Chuuya's ability is For The Tainted Sorrow and the other part of his ability is Arahabaki.

Arahabaki technically isn't human and has no emotions other than the desire for pure destruction. When Chuuya uses corruption and lets Arahabaki take over he is "No Longer Human". He has no human goals and no thoughts of his own. But when Chuuya uses corruption he has a sliver of why he activated it in the first place at least. But when he has finished what he started he continues to destroy everything in sight.

With Dazai's ability he can nullify other abilities. It's pretty useful to have but if it isn't given a proper purpose then it really has no meaning. Dazai's ability is called No Longer Human even though he doesn't know what it means to be human. He has no will to live and was depressed when he was part of the port mafia. This means that his life was For The Tainted Sorrow.

So my point is that Chuuya's ability is to do inhuman things like manipulate and control gravity along with creating impossible amouts of destruction. Dazai can't find a purpose and has no will to live. Even Oda couldn't teach him to value life.

It's canon that Chuuya's character was brought in to be Dazai's ex-partner and that Chuuya's ability would be the worlds demise without Dazai. Chuuya needs Dazai in order to know what it's like to feel...to be human. And Dazai needs Chuuya to take away his take away his tainted sorrow. To give him meaning.

When people say things like:

" Soukoku isn't canon!" and " They hate eachother."

They sometimes have a point. Everyone has the right to express their own opinion. It's true that Dazai wants Chuuya dead and constantly leaves him hanging. I can't count all the times Dazai either let Chuuya pass out from over using corruption or watched him rampage before actually nullifying it. Despite this Chuuya continues to trust him blindly. He claims to hate him but when it comes down to Dazai actually getting hurt he does everything in his power to save him. This proves that Chuuya doesn't really want him dead. It could be dismissed as:

" Well Chuuya knows that if Dazai dies he can't use his ability."

But we've all seen Chuuya's capability with out the use of gravity or corruption. Every time Chuuya goes to throw a knife at Dazai or stab him he misses. We know that if he wanted him dead he would have done it by now.

And when chuuya moves to choke dazai or pin him to the wall he bends his knees. He lets Chuuya do this even though he looks displeased. If Chuuya's hate could be brushed off as that he needs his ability then why would the writer and the animators spend so much time on their relationship.

Now that it's all been said, let's talk about Dead apple and ch101...

yes...

Dead apple is built around the relationship of Soukoku. Dazai Becomes in an alliance to kill all ability users but is double crossed and killed by Fydor. Everyone knew of Dazai's betrayal or knew he was dead but Chuuya wanted him back and knew it wasn't to late. He embodied Arahabaki to his full power for the first time even though there was nothing to garentee that Dazai could be brought back. The only thing to carry Chuuya was his faith and trust that he has for Dazai. We should know that this trust that Chuuya has for Dazai is much more than just a good friendship. Dazai isn't just a partner to Chuuya. He definitely loved him.

When Chuuya brought Dazai back and he brought them back to reality he knew what Chuuya had done for him. He's aware of Chuuya's feelings and Chuuya has even told him that he trusts him with his life. That could be why Dazai let Chuuya rest in his lap.

But for some reason when Dazai gets involved with Fydor again and tries to escape with Sigma he explains how he has been contemplating ways to kill Chuuya for 7 years. He even dances with Sigma when he thinks he'll be dead in 30 minutes. Not a very straight death wish but I'll let it slide.

He does kill Chuuya by drowning him and he and Sigma do escape. It makes me sad that when you think of how Chuuya never once questioned his love and faith in Dazai yet Dazai can turn around and do that. The only person we can confirm that Dazai loved was Oda. He knew how Chuuya felt and didn't give a shit. Dazai is confusing but what he's done to Chuuya from their first meeting to ch101 is just playing with the fandom and most importantly Chuuya's feelings.

I want them to have Dazai bring Chuuya back somehow. If the don't I'll probably stop watching. Remember what I explained in the first few paragraphs? What will Dazai be without Chuuya? I guess was a little happier and was well off without him. But still.

Dazai left Akutagawa and Chuuya after Oda died for Atsushi and Kunikida. Akutagawa expresses how this hurt him but Chuuya never shows his true feelings on the situation. I love Chuuya and I'm starting to hate Dazai for what he's done.

I Hate to break this to you, But BSD ain't a Romance and isn't romance oriented so, No ships would be canon. The closest that we have to canon and Romance are the One sided crush ships like, AkuHigu (Akutagawa x Higuchi), AtsuLucy (Atsushi x Lucy) and TsujiAya (Tsujimura x Ayatsuji.) So, yes, It is a "Everyone is beautiful and Noone is Horny" type of thing.

I'm so tired of generic straight romances - pretty Mary Sue x pretty Gary Stu, I-lost-someone-I-loved-romantically-and-that- defines-my-entire-life-and-interactions-and-I-will-never-ever-be-happy-again, the love interest always being pretty with clichéd coolness and sassiness (especially if they're female), that love can only be felt towards good - looking people especially pretty females, etc.

If any of that nonsense is the only (most probably hinted) romance to happen in BSD then I'll be so disappointed. Because so far, BSD has avoided quite a few of these asinine tropes even in some of its potential straight ships, has avoided the travesty of romantic love and love in general that modern media perpetuates.

If BSD has romance arcs / hints that turn into another example of 'everyone is beautiful and no-one is horny', that will be such a tragedy. The excessively conservatively heteronormative section of the fandom is ruining BSD's intriguing, unconventional gay ships, female characters and unconventional straight ships as it is.

oda’s descriptions of dazai in the dark era light novel are so devastating

“Dazai’s expression as he placed a finger on his forehead and approached the enemy—that of a child about to burst into tears—remained burned into my eyes.”

“‘He’s sharp-witted with a mind like a steel trap. And he’s just a child—a sobbing child abandoned in the darkness of a world far emptier than the one we’re seeing.’”

he just saw him as a child who yearned to be saved
