asagiri describing tanizaki as “the man closest to evil in the agency” “to tanizaki, people are not equal” and harukawa saying “i think tanizaki is the shadow of the sun, he could have passed even as a member of the port mafia”… oh this has layers
this panel is getting animated next week btw this is where we finally see if bones studio takes the scene of dazai and sigma exchanging air and decides to go full homotron 3000 with it
bsd anime onlys and manga readers all being in the same boat for next week’s episode because no one knows what the fuck ‘twilight farewell’ means or what’s gonna happen
gay person: im gay
society: ok
dazai: i spent every waking and sleeping moment thinking about ways to annoy chuuya. there were moments our hearts reached out to each other. chuuya and i are destined to-
so it’s 100% confirmed that dazai’s touch can bring the vampires back to their senses … what if chuuya’s gun against his forehead was all the touch he needed for his ability to work..
IF THE SWORD COMES OUT OF BRAM THEN THAT MEANS BOTH CHUUYA AND AKUTAGAWA RETURN TO US… BUT LOOK AT THE DAMAGE THEY’VE CAUSED oh if they come to their senses while their partner lays bloody and beaten in front of them..
also might be more common knowledge but i always think about how the authors paul verlaine and arthur rimbaud were actually in a romantic relationship and verlaine did indeed shoot rimbaud at one point so the romantic homosexual subtext in stormbringer is … genuinely canon
this is a little funny in hindsight now i fear because like truly why tf did chuuya do that you can tell that shit was NOT scripted and dazai even said he was meant to go easy plssss
not the worst but something i don’t see spoken about much is how fyodor & dazai’s chess imagery was completely removed. the chess metaphor was one of the most insane & captivating parts & tbh it feels like lost potential for the anime especially since it’d be so visually stunning
honestly i haven’t forgiven asagiri for making dazai explicitly say that he and jouno would get along well and then just never letting them interact in the manga again… like the potential their dynamic has is crazy
the fact the new preview.. a standard anime preview.. has the bsd fandom as nervous as a serious chapter drop right now.. like palpitations and everything it ain’t even funny
in all honestly i kinda never understand the hatred ppl have towards filler episodes because idk if bsd got some filler episodes i think i would cry of joy like it was the birth of my newborn on a lovely spring day… like it’s rough out here
wait remember how atsushi passed out after gaining information from sigma because his brain needed time to process? maybe sigma is also knocked out because of all the information he gained from fyodor… it might not be over for him just yet
how much do you guys wanna bet tanizaki is gonna be the ada member that transfers to the port mafia as part of mori’s deal because it’s looking pretty damn serious AND IM SEATED like tbh im seated… tanizaki you have such potential
i still can’t believe tecchou said he would place jouno above justice for 5 minutes. the most important thing to him is justice he literally devoted his whole life and body to becoming a hunting dog for the very sake of justice and he’s willing to put jouno before all that…. ok.
“you knew how i felt” “fukuzawa, are you there?” “don’t do this to him” “i’m a little tired” “rest up” “i wish for wold peace” “was there no other way?” SICK AND TWISTED WE ARE NEVER MOVING ON
