#for now fanon Gin will save me

[afterthelambs]

Gin barely gets any development in-canon which I think is unfortunate because out of all the port mafia characters she has a lot of potential? Most PM characters get development by explaining why they joined the mafia or why they stay there. Chuuya to protect the sheep after they turned against him, Ryunosuke for a reason to live, Tachihara as a double agent, etc. But what's Gin's reasoning? Did they force her to become an assassin after Ryunosuke joined? Or was it voluntary, did she do it because she wanted to remain involved in her brother's life? She doesn't have the same resentment for Ryu that she does in Beast so can we assume she's happy with their decision? What is it like being a non-ability user member of the mafia? What's her relationship like with the Black Lizard? We know Tachihara is very fond of them but can we actually see them interact outside of the plot events? Does she have any dreams or aspirations outside the mafia that she wishes she could achieve? Would she leave the mafia if she could, or would she only do it if her brother also leaves? Really wish Asagiri would stop sleeping on a really interesting character with a banger design

Another question game that I actually love. Anyone can find it on ig under the account @bsd.4.life, so knock yourselves out.

1. How did you find out about BSD?

Aha… so as a child I used to watch some MEP videos on youtube and Chuuya appeared in one of them. He instantly gave off the mafioso vibe and as a fan of The Godfather and Goodfellas, I was interested.

Indeed, this was nothing like The Godfather or Goodfellas. Additionally, Chuuya is not a character I’m fully interested in.

2. What is one character you love that is underrated?

Louisa. The smartest most sweetest most hardworking character in this whole anime and I don’t see her getting the recognition she deserves. Though I will admit, her only using her skill when someone orders her to (Mr. Cash Money) is kind of irritating.

3. What is one character that you dislike from the ADA, PM, Guild, Hunting Dogs and Decay of Angels.

ADA: Naomi. People, I rarely wish death upon someone, but when Higuchi turned her into Swiss cheese on that third episode, I was hoping so very much that she was dead.

PM: Kouyou. I don’t care who worships this woman, I find her close minded, controlling, cruel, selfish, and absolutely irritating. Other than that I will give kudos to her for being the only one during the Cannibalism arc to say “Hm… maybe we shouldn’t attack the ADA since it is CLEARLY what the mastermind wants and will most likely seal all our fates. Not to mention we’ve never even won once against them.”

Guild: Hawthorne. Um, yeah, he’s boring. And I laughed when Margaret saved him from Akutagawa.

Hunting dogs: Jouno. Sorry, sorry, Ik all the simps are going to want to see me hanged, but it is as Tecchou said: underneath all that evil is his soft heart. Well I count the evil too, and personally, tormenting poor Aya did not sit well with me. And if he had dared speak so ghastly to the coolest man alive, the Agency’s barista, I would’ve laid his ass out, idc idc.

Decay of angels: Fukuchi. Oh, boohoo you had to kill people in war, like mf what did you think was going to happen? Fukuzawa literally told him but hey, that’s his life ig. Now he’s taking it out on the world; that’s between him and God, honestly.

4. What is your favorite quote from BSD?

“People can be so simple… They truly believe they are thinking for themselves.” - as told by my dearest

5. If you could make any fanon ship canon, which ship would it be?

Gin and Tachihara. Please! I love them. Simply.

6. Who is smarter, Dazai, Fyodor or Ranpo?

There is literally no debate here: Dazai. Now I am basing this off the 8 intelligences, and frankly, Dazai and Fyodor are equal in nearly all of them, except intrapersonal. Even though Dazai is not fully self-actualized yet, he is far more open into exploring himself and knowing himself while Fyodor will claim that there is no need for that because he knows all there is to know: he has surpassed humanity and is now “the chosen”. And that is exactly why Dazai is going to roll him like dough.

As for Dazai and Ranpo… well, Ranpo couldn’t really use the sufficient amount of “cunning” to handle Fyodor. I’d like to say he is led off more evidence based than Dazai and Fyodor, and using only that, he will try to piece together what makes sense to himself, not the other person. Even so he is a genius and I adore him.

7. How do you think you would react if your favorite BSD character appeared in front of you?

I would be so confused. Just like a “Heyyy… Do you need something?” Of course, all of this would be after recovering from the major shock of seeing my beloved Russki.

8. What would you tell your favorite BSD character?

“…Isn’t sacrificing yourself for nothing the greatest sin of all?”

9. Create your own ability. Give it a name, explain how it works and explain a negative aspect of it as well.

I will just use Irving’s skill in this scenario: Rip Van Winkle. The ability to manipulate matter itself, rearranging atoms and molecules, shifting from one state to another, in all, almost godlike (wink wink). Besides the insane amount of physics, biology and chemistry this ability requires to work, it takes up a whole lot of energy from the user, usually only giving a limit of nine minutes. However, this is the best scientific explanation from what can be observed from this ability; there may be something more to it because, as we all know, if matter cannot be created or destroyed, how are these creatures bred from the water?
