sorry I need to rant

I hate this. I hate it. Why does his hair go under his eye bandages. This is the one time I give the anime design points over Harukawa. What the fuck is this. Do you know how uncomfortable this would be? I can feel the scratchiness and tickling. Awful and bad. No wonder he was so miserable. It’s like he couldn’t decide between emo boy and mummy and settled on some terrible mash up of the two. Every time I try to take the design as a whole I just keep getting drawn back to the HAIR UNDER THE BANDAGE. Instant repulsion. It probably doesn’t even stay on properly. Is he just constantly adjusting it? Or is it tighter than it looks and he’s just dealing with it? Is that supposed to be some kind of intimidation display? To be able to put up with hair pressed and rubbing against your eye under a bandage? Well it doesn’t look intimidating. It just looks stupid. It’s stupid. What the hell. Why. Why. Why.

…hm. Actually, the more I write, the more I realize that this is extremely on-brand for Dazai to wear something that purposely sucks. Carry on, I guess, you funky little depressed edgelord.

I don’t understand how people write fic without constantly cross-referencing the source material

Ignoring Dazai's horrific actions in the past takes away from the importance of his redemption

I've seen a bunch of people who seem to not know (Or just choose to ignore) how incredibly brutal and terrifying Dazai was in the past.

Dazai is one of my favourite characters and definitely one of the best written in the series, and trying to pretend he wasn't that bad is really reductive for his character as a whole. This post is not some moral plea of why you shouldn't like Dazai because he was evil, he's fictional, but don't pretend a fundamental part of the character doesn't exist.

I'll start with a list of some of the things Dazai has done:

Nailed a guys feet to the floor with rebar, then stacked concrete blocks on his arms till they were about to break.

Imprison Q who couldn't have been older then 8 at the time in conditions that made Q want to destroy Dazai years later.

Mental and physically abuse Akutagawa to the point where he is entirely dependent on Dazai, and values Dazais approval over his own life.

He has never failed to break a victim in interrogation even when Kouyous division couldn't make then talk.

He was responsible for half of the mafias profits in the year before The Dark Era, which is completely insane.

He was able to make both Mori and Verlaine uneasy, two of the most dangerous individuals in the whole series.

"Miscalculation.

You misjudged the situation, you failed to find the optimum solution. You should not have chosen this child to help you. Dazai is unpredictable. He can be sharp but in a dark, twisted way. He's observant. He's cold and calculating with no equivalent in the mafia where most evil resides."

Dazai is a darkness so deep that no one in the mafia can fully see the bottom.

But that's what makes his redemption so powerful, surly if even that child, who has come to believe that he isn't even human, can find hope and safety, then anyone can.

Dazai is a product of his environment, he has infinite potential, and a talent for manipulation, but when he surrounds himself with good people he starts to reflect them and become better himself. First with Odasaku and Ango, then with the ADA. He is washing the black of the port mafia off himself, and that will take time, and it will take support, but its why his journey is so fantastic.

Every time I see that passage about young Akutagawa making little flowers with Rashoumon I need to just… take a minute. It hurts so bad.

I hope he finds a reason to make them again someday.

Essentially, Fyodor wants to pin blame on ability users, which is what I was afraid the outcome to this arc would be since the very beginning; a scheme to unite humanity through shared hatred and disgust towards an out-group. A scapegoat. Terrorism, two trusted ability user organizations (the ADA and the Hunting Dogs) being uprooted and believed to be criminals, an ability based pandemic-like outbreak; it all leads to an erosion of trust and paranoia.

If you can’t unite everyone under an “us” then create a “them” for “us” to unite against, is the logic here. Allegedly.

But this logic is, quite frankly, terrible. Fukuchi’s plan is, in the long run, indeed doomed to fail. People form in-groups, outcasts always exist, and conflict will always arise; this is inevitable. But this kind of mass hysteria will not unite humanity for very long at all. People will turn on each other and regard their neighbours with suspicion. The only thing Fyodor will accomplish in this way is reinstating the sentiment that led to the witch trials. After all, the “enemy” could be anywhere.

But maybe that doesn’t matter to Fyodor. I have to doubt that peace is truly the goal. Maybe Fyodor simply doesn’t understand humans as well as he thinks. Maybe there is a personal grudge towards ability users that this is a cover justification for.

Maybe all that matters to him is simply that ability users bear the weight of humanity’s sins, and hang the rest.

"your speech and thought bubbles are swapped" would be so funny with odasaku because you suddenly get 3 paragraphs of the most unhinged similies, 1 thousand self-deprecation, 15 self doubt, 2 breakdowns, and 4 changes of mind instead of the regular "yeah".
