UPDATE: I HAVE RENDERED THIS

I have now contributed a total of TWO (2) posts to the tanitachigin tag 💪

[calmlb]

It’s been clear that the Tanizakis aren’t siblings from the very beginning

here’s some evidence now that it’s been confirmed canon…

everyone who’s read irl Tanizaki’s book knew that Junichiro & Naomi weren’t siblings as soon as they introduced themselves

BUT just because the Tanizakis aren’t siblings doesn’t mean you can’t feel uncomfortable about them. if you feel uncomfortable, GOOD. that’s exactly what they want

the Tanizakis, Mori— they all use these disturbing ruses to disarm or distract people in order to protect themselves, or to accomplish their goals. this is a writing device that asagiri commonly employs as a way to parallel the irl literature (it’s actually ingenious)

there are 4 main indicators that have always made it clear to me that Junichiro & Naomi are not siblings:

1. most obviously— their character designs. Harukawa is extremely intentional with character designs, & she very intentionally made Naomi & Junichiro look nothing alike

their eye shapes are purposely different

their color palettes are contrasting

even their differing styles of clothing have meaning

this was all done so that the audience could PLAINLY see that they’re not related— so that WE know that they’re lying when they say they ARE related

2. how the people around them respond to their act.

the general reaction is “don’t question it”— which is exactly what they want. “be distracted by how uncomfortable you feel so that you look away from what we’re hiding” (this is likely a protective measure)

3. most importantly, this is meant to parallel irl Tanizaki’s book “Naomi,” where the main character Joji picks up Naomi to raise her into his ideal woman, but since she's so young (& a minor) they call each other cousins (Joji makes no sexual advances on young Naomi btw)

however, his plan backfires because when Naomi gets older & they get married, she flips the script on him & manipulates HIM so that he's under her thumb (which is why bsd Tanizaki is at a domineering Naomi's mercy). Joji let her have her way because of his masochistic tendencies

4. lastly is the emphasis that Asagiri and the Tanizakis themselves put on calling each other siblings.

over & over, it’s “my brother this” & “my sister that”

like they’re desperately trying to convince us that it’s true (“don’t let your lying eyes deceive you”)

here are just a few of many examples from the light novels…

again, if you’ve read “Naomi” you knew that Junichiro & Naomi weren’t siblings as soon as they introduced themselves

just like if you’ve read irl Mori’s works, it’s clear that bsd Mori isn’t a pedophile

just like if you’ve read No Longer Human you know that Dazai’s an unreliable narrator. he makes you think he’s a bad person bc he believes he’s a bad person, but those around him see him differently (btw this doesn’t mean he’s never done anything “bad,” though bsd isn’t about morality— but that’s another discussion)

anyway, i’m so excited for the Tanizakis backstory to be revealed so that we can better understand why they use this defense!!

also let this be a reminder to READ THE LITERATURE if you’re able to!! even reading synopses & analyses of the coordinating books makes bsd make much more sense 🥹

reminder that this how you’re supposed to react while reading bsd:

also, if you’re interested in a post explaining how Mori isn’t a pedo, i wrote this analysis on twt. OR you can read this document that one of my moots sent me (remember: analyzing a character does NOT mean you condone any actions they may or may not commit!)

(head)canon that kunikida is the only one who carries a gun with him. headcanon its because kyouka isn't interested in killing. yosano thinks her giant knives are better. kenji is far too young. atsushi isn't trained. fukuzawa strictly uses his katana. and finally. dazai, tanizaki, and rampo are banned from guns because they would shoot anyone who inconveniences/annoys them.

[timefospookies]

Headcanon that the ADA has a double sided whiteboard with like schedule and mission details written on the front and a betting chart on the back

Something mildly exciting happens and Dazai or Yosano flip the board and start gathering bets

Dazai: “Is the client the culprit? Bets everyone!”

Atsushi: “How much..?”

Dazai: “Hmm…¥1.000! All for aye?”

Kyōka: “Aye,”

Yosano: “Aye,”

Atsushi: “Mmmm…nay,”

Dazai: “Oh, Atsushi, you sweet soul,”

Kunikida: “Don’t make bets on the client!”

Atsushi: “I’d rather give them the benefit of the doubt. Yeah, they were creepy as hell, but maybe they’re just bad with people!”

Jun’ichiro: “Aye,”

Naomi: “Aye!”

Atsushi: “You guys…”

Kunikida: “DID ANY OF YOU EVEN HEAR ME?!”

Dazai: “Nope! Aye or nay?”

Kunikida: “Dazai…”

Dazai: “Aye or nay?”

Kunikida: “This is incredibly unprofessional!”

Kunikida: “…….”

Kunikida: “…Aye,”

Dazai: “Aye, he says!”

Kenji: “:D?????”

Kenji doesn’t bet cuz he doesn’t get it, but it’s fun to see everyone so excited!

Ranpo’s not allowed to bet until everyone else has placed their own first (and they’re not allowed to change their mind once he bets).

Dazai: “All done! Ranpo-san, your turn!”

Ranpo: “Mmm….”

Ranpo:

Dazai:

Ranpo:

Ranpo: “Nay.”

All: *collective groans of defeat*
