Saw your thoughts on dazai ships and wanted to hear about your take on akutagawa ships.

Entrapta voice: You're asking me about my theories?? I've waited years for someone to ask me about my theories!

Hello friend! Thanks for the ask! I love talking about Akutagawa, he is my heart and soul, so this will be fun! I will take the chance to also thank you about your interaction with my posts, it makes my day ^^

Now, let's get into it!

Shin Soukoku (Akutagawa/Atsushi) - This is everything to me. Absolutely everything. They're in love. They're soulmates. They were created by the same ring of laughter. An angel lost its wings and they both fell in Yokohama, waiting to be reunited. Sskk is the definition of "whatever souls are made of, his and mine were the same." I cannot accurately describe how happy they make me. I can't even give a coherent and objective reasoning as to why they're the best ship ever, they just are. "Just the two of us? / Do we need any more?" WHY ARE YOU RECITING YOUR WEDDING VOWS NOW, GOD–! Anyways. 1 billion/10.

Chuuaku (Chuuya/Akutagawa) - Similarly to my other post, I don't get people who have a problem with this ship. It's cute, it's beautiful, it makes me happy. I talked to my friend about this issue once; like, why is multishipping not a thing in this fandom?? Maybe I want to jump around dynamics??? Can skk give me friends to lovers?? No?? Great, Kunizai it is. Like, why can't we let people ship other shit than skk and sskk?? Anyways, Chuuya and Akutagawa care for each other, there is mutual respect, they would be a great comfort to one another. I say valid, 10/10 ship.

AkuHigu (Akutagawa/Higuchi) - I love, love, love this ship. Love them. They're so cute?? Like, I'm a die-hard sskk fan until I die, but I would LOVE to see more of this ship. The scene where Higuchi goes to save him?? Where Akutagawa gains consciousness and the first thing he does, before he can properly gather his senses, is apologize to Higuchi?? Also, the whole episode where she's stalking Gin because she thinks she's dating Akutagawa?? Their interactions in Wan?? I actually fucking love them. Every time the focus is on them, I feel like I'm watching a shoujo anime. Higuchi makes me think that Akutagawa would be a romantic. I need more of theeeeeem. Literally they're born to shoujo and forced to shounen. 10/10.

Dazaku (Dazai/Akutagawa) - Since I expressed my frustration with the fandom regarding this in the Dazai ships post, I will focus on my opinions about this ship. Honestly, it makes me feel kinda awkward? When I think of them in a romantic manner? Feels just a little bit like missing a step. However, it's an interpretation I would be open to if I could be convinced that Dazai actually, you know, likes Akutagawa? Like, you know that one scene in Lady Bird that's like "I wish you liked me / You know I love you / But do you like me?" That's how I feel the dynamic is between these two. Yes, Dazai is hoping Atsushi will be good for Akutagawa, and yes, he is happy Akutagawa stopped killing, and God knows what his plans are for the future – but do you like me? Valid ship context wise, neutral territory, I just need a little more from Dazai before I can make a final ruling.

TaniAku (Tanizaki/Akutagawa) - LISTEN GUYS. LISTEN. I BLAME BEAST FOR THIS, BUT THESE TWO ARE SO, SO, SO IMPORTANT TO MEEEE. I unironically love them. I don't care that Beast is the only canon I have to work with for this ship; it's so good. Like, the way Beast Tanizaki understood Akutagawa?? The way he supported his revenge mission from the get go?? The way he stormed the Mafia HQs and fucking held an assassin hostage just so he could help Akutagawa?? Ride or die. That bitch. I would actually die if I saw them interact in canon. Like, that's your bestie in another life. 100/10. I need them. It is a need.

TachiAku (Tachihara/Akutagawa) - I have no serious thoughts about this, to be honest. I think it would be lowkey hilarious. I haven't had nearly enough interactions between them for me to get attached to this ship in any way. Plus, now that we know more about Tachihara's...real self, I would love to see more of these two! I am going to allow this ship, and hope to see these two at least fight by each other's side in the future!

I think that's it for the most popular ones, please let me know if I forgot any ships!

i personally think in beast, Akutagawa and Junichiro should not only be a dynamic duo, but should also kiss sometimes

[trains-boy]

beast taniaku is kinda growing on me im still smitten for beast sskk as well, but taniaku is slowly growing on me

Tanizaki : Mon copain peut transformer dans un tigre .

i miss this part of bsd

Being a multi-shipper is literally the best thing to be in any sort of fandom– especially if you like to fuck with canon.

Like, I make an edit about sskk being in love. I read a one shot about taniaku going on a first date. I save a pin of fyozai playing their mind-games. I go through all of chuuaku official art. I draw dazaku fanart. I favorite videos of kunizai funny moments.

The world revolves around Akutagawa, but I can do some side quests every now and then XD

I love Tanizaki so much 😭😭 he's so real and incredible for this.

Please, God, make him transfer to the Mafia. Please let me see TaniAku in canon.

That's all I'm asking for.

The thing is, based on Ranpo's previous statements “If we fought the Port Mafia head-on, people would die”, “[now that we've failed to apprehend the ability user who created the virus] we're out of chips to bargain with the Port Mafia. Tanizaki is in danger.”, I'm fairly sure assassinating the pm boss was not the task the ada assigned Tanizaki. Which means Tanizaki literally goes for the murder option of his own accord as soon as he's left unsupervised.

see the thing about beast ships is that literally every other ship is more compelling than s.kk. i need more beast rarepair fics give me beast kunichuu beast souheki beast chuuran beast taniaku beast atsujuni beast tachigin beast tanihara beast higugin etc etc etc i wanna know how their dynamics change with the different universe vs what aspects stay the same!!!! how would kunikida deal with the moral crisis of falling for a mafia executive when he hasn’t had dazai working by his side and he hasn’t gone through the azure king/messenger incidents? does ranpo feel conflicted about hooking up with the man who has assumed mori’s old role? how do gin and tachihara work together when gin isn’t his partner but rather placed in a higher role than him? what about gin and higuchi when their relative placements in the mafia hierarchy are reversed? can we stop discussing flat boring fanon dynamics that don’t come remotely close to getting the characterization right and start contemplating everything else PLEASE
