#bsd ch 121.5 spoilers

[leniisreallycool]

we're all kind of in a "oh fuck asagiri definitely ships sskk" but like holy fuck everything is starting to make sense

first, atsushi is doing what he always does, which is to hallucinate his mentor when things go wrong. that mentor used to be the headmaster, but atsushi has come to terms with his death and now dazai is the one he instinctively seeks guidance from. dazai isn't really there, he's still at mersault waiting for sigma to wake up. as far as we know for now.

second, the divine being slurping up the ada members after turning them to bubbles didn't make sense to begin with. there are easier ways of killing someone than that. transporting them to the fourth dimension where their brains can't process everything, though? they're still alive and the things they knew are still available somehow to fyodor in some way.

third, of course atsushi already knew all of these things. that's what we've seen over and over, that his memories have been locked up (like him killing shibusawa) until he needs them, and then he has a terrifying and vivid hallucination of his mentor. in this case, it's dazai explaining something incomprehensible to him because atsushi has the information, it's just buried too deep and he doesn't have the context to remember it

fourth, i think atsushi is going to find out where the book is. i think dazai is going to lead him there, but before we get to find out what's happening, the perspective shifts to sigma and the memories he got from fyodor. and then the chapter after that will be atsushi and sigma alternating pov as shit unfolds and we get to see more panicky dazai and then it'll go back to atsushi and stuff will happen and everything will be resolved eventually

At this point i feel like its the book thats talking to atsushi.

Cuz im confused, but this may be due to the tiger thats with him, and plus we all know that the tigers an entity attached with/to the book. So my guess is that the book itself is talking to atsushi..? But the thing is why is he (dazai in the above photo) saying that atsushi knows what its actually like inside the space/realm? Is it something that...like? part of atsushis conscious is er with the book? And thats why he knows what its like inside the realm and that exactly why he is the only exception too?

And the last line, ' thats what you do when you want to experience the past'., it is saying that atsushi has already done this or encounter this before or just saying that?

Is it connected with the hallucination or visions that comes to him? Because the line, 'feel strongly', like when atsushi is in panic mode or something that when the past comes in, and well the emotions that he feels during those times are when he feeling heavily down or something because we have seen in the train part too when he was under control of Qs ability dazai had to slap him to slap him to snapout of it, he was having heavy feelings and than headmaster(who is from the past) comes in to mock him? (i think forgor).

well I don't know thats just my theory/opinion or whatever you call it.

okay thread time

SOB MY BOYYYYYY

[dea011]

i got distracted by how pretty atsushi's eyes were

[that-one-raccoon]

oh he loves him

OH HE LOVES HIM SO MUCH

[hesperidia]

i feel like i need time to process everything but you can NOT tell how happy i am that this is a canon scene that this scene specifically was the trigger for Akutagawa remembering himself no one talk to me DO NOT TALK TO ME

[ssaraexposs]

Not gonna lie, I miss him

[sleeby-pisces]

after the new bsd chapter life is looking UP

[daniraevys]

ch 121.5 is lowkey giving me the same vibe as the arcane episode where jayce, ekko and heimerdinger enter the hextech crystal.

[hermy-97]

I did NOT expect a smirk from atsushi after getting sliced considering the circumstances. But it brought aku back, so no complaints.
