Schoolgirl, Osamu Dazai

it’s weird when people act like mori would regularly torture dazai and/or chuuya for funsies. even ignoring that he does hold some affection for them why would he risk losing two of his strongest subordinates like that? why would he send them on missions while they’re injured??

dazai was clearly fine interacting with mori until the whole oda thing went down. and we know dazai is very clear about him being the only one allowed to make chuuyas life more difficult than it needs to be so he wouldn’t just stand by and watch if this ever happened

also how would you even explain that chuuya is perfectly happy hanging out with mori? he’s clearly not expecting any harm and y’all can’t tell me that chuuya "that’s more than a light wound" nakahara would ever happily spend his time with mori if he ever did actually torture dazai

"So the suicidal maniac wants to live" forever will stun me because dazai knew chuuya for like 12 hours and then held his hand once and immediately decided he wanted to LIVE after trying to khs daily....

Anyways i also think that Chuuya SHOULD NOT be the Port Mafia boss to be totally honest witchu. If his entire experience with the Sheep, and the way he cracked under pressure as the interim leader during cannibalism, and like, THE BEAST EPILOGUE, had anything to say it's that Chuuya's not fit to be the leader of an organization such as that.

Bc Chuuya's good at adapting, he's good at spur of the moment decisions. He's good with battle tactics. We see his actual leadership abilities shine when he's commanding the mafia troops to protect the city during the guild arc. In cannibalism, his plan to rush the ADA with a full frontal attack was a SOLID idea. But he loses his advantage as soon as he hesitates and opens the table for negotiation instead.

BECAUSE Chuuya's not good at playing the long game like Mori or Dazai. He's reactionary and it's his nature to get overwhelmed by his emotions. He takes on too much responsibility but loses focus due to personal reasons. That what happens in 15 where he blows off the Sheep to go on a life changing field trip with Dazai. That's why he was taken out of the picture so easily to go on a life changing field trip with Ranpo in Cannibalism. (Damn maybe this is why he's on a life changing field trip with Fyodor as a vampire currently).

Essentially even though Asagiri has been really tying Chuuya's character with the themes of leadership, we've mostly been shown why he wouldn't be a good fit. Either this plot point will trend towards Chuuya actually learning how to be a good leader OR he won't end up as one. IN ANY CASE what we know abt Chuuya makes me really think that being the Port Mafia's boss is a terrible idea. He's not fit for the role and frankly, I think he'd hate it.

this ones for the chuuya stans 🤲

Teenage soukoku acting like typical middle schoolers who give their homeroom teacher headache except they're in a mafia meeting.

They behave for the first ten minutes, fifteen minutes if the team is lucky and after that Mori's lifespan starts shortening. It starts with Dazai whispering something to Chuuya and Chuuya snickering before whispering back. Soon the whispers turn into bickers and bickers turn into yelling until they meet Mori's glare and fall silent. He apologises to the foreign dealers and the meeting resumes.

Peace restored but not for long.

Five minutes later they're talking again. Dazai rocks the chair too far back and falls over. Chuuya laughs, because of course he does. A minute later Chuuya screams and jumps away from his seat. All eyes are immediately on him as he points at Dazai while rubbing his arm.

"THIS BITCH BIT ME"

Mori wants to cry.

chuuya’s role in bsd is so funny to me. you’re watching this show and every 10 episodes or so this pretty guy drops in, and he’s the coolest most OP guy in the show so he can really only hang around for a few minutes before he makes any conflict obsolete. and he’s supposed to be part of the villains but he never really does anything that evil and is mostly helpful? he just appears and does something badass and fucks off again. and this is all already really weird but also every time he shows up it’s clear that he and one of the other main characters have like, definitely fucked, which adds a whole other layer of absurdism. and the best part is he accomplishes this in maybe 11 total minutes of screen time.

Still waiting for the day Fifteen Chuuya realises Dazai's "That's what makes me love you" wasn't a joke but his real feelings lmaooo

Chuuya: You have a crush on me, don't you?

Dazai: The only crush I have is the crushing weight of my existence.

Dazai:

Dazai: And you.
