Forgive any insensibility, but I really don’t understand why people would be upset at BSD or at the vampire arc. It seems so, so clear that it’s only a plot point, none of those important characters are going to die - the fact that it’s so many main-cast characters all infected should precisely be an indication that it’ll have to be undone. It runs long, for sure, it’s a huge-ass buildup to a rollercoaster climax and it can be a lot to take in, but I’m really not seeing anything wrong, traitorous to the audience or a single sign of bad writing, from my point of view.
BSD doesn’t make a habit of killing characters, not main-cast ones. Side characters, guards, smaller enemies, sure, but not main cast. That’s why I’m calm as ever and simply enjoying the ride!
I want to know what Dazai's stans felt when this chapter got released 🤔
And me wondering what dazai had to go through when he was on his way to the jail. Drugged and all, it pained me to see him like that 🥺 and mori's face here says something but I can't decipher it.
"It's just hands, it won't hurt you"
The hands :
I miss him 🥺
あああああああああ Natsume Yuujinchou is doing an anime site pilgrimage collab with Kumamoto prefecture!!!! Finally, something that’s high-key relevant to my interests!! I’ve done Hitoyoshi/Natsume locations that one year but being the long running series that it is I knew for sure there’d be so many other places I have yet to check off my list. Japan please get well soon I would LOVE to have reasons to come visit you again!! Site here: https://kumamoto.guide/natsume-yujincho/
I found a post about it's kind of hard to fit all of the arc in one season and I agree
It's really difficult starting from when Ranpo, Poe and Oguri and Agency became runaways and chased by the HD, Dazai's arrested by Jouno, Tachihara's backstory, Yosano's backstory, Dazai and Fyodor's in jail, Nikolai and Sigma, Fukuchi (I don't want to discuss this grandpa), the leader of DOA, Kunikida's jail break
Akutagawa's death, vampire outbreak, bram's reveal, Tachihara broken from the book's spell, Jouno betrayed fukuchi, Aya's reappearance, ADA's meeting, Ranpo's backup plan, ADA's counterstrike and many more that I may forgot to list.
Maybe it's good if they just split up the season and make it season 5. Where s4 ends with the reveal of DOA's leader and proceed to s5 that is vampire's outbreak and all. And if they want to animate any of the novel, I think it'll be the Origin of The Armed Detective Agency.
An hour and a half after the chapter look at us
I CAN'T IF I SEE THIS ANIMATED. I'LL CRY 😭😭😭
this scene animated….. 🥲
The man looked at me and smiled tilting his head. It was not a smile for me, but one for himself. Also, he seemed to smile because he didn't know what other expressions to put on. - Odasaku || Beast light novel
With the occasion of Beast vol I and II being reprinted, we get another Beast Dazai drawing~
It’s been 9 years since the series start serializing. Wishing Asagiri, Harukawa, other manga artists, and staff involved congrats for reaching success thus far & keeping the story going.
He already wanted to die even before he met Mori and when they met, Mori use that as an opportunity to use Dazai, to make him a witness.
Here, I think that he just went along with what Mori want. And again, he looked really relaxed on that table as if that was a school table. The table, the situation, the wires, and that thing around his body (Idk), it doesn't fazed him at all. Like when Mori killed the boss. This gives more proof that Dazai did have dark life and background way before he met the underground doctor.
Make us more eager to know Dazai's past 😌
