Raccoon dogs are incredibly cute creatures in general but I think one of their best traits is how different they look with their winter coats vs their summer coats
They go from “yeah that looks like a canid alright”
To “not when I shift into maximum FLUFF”

as a dostoyevsky fan i first discovered bsd by being very confused whenever i saw pretty anime boys in the crime and punishment tag, so now i’m using bsd to discover more classic literature, and you can too!
this is my personal list straight from my phone notes app, of the most significant works mentioned in the series. italized titles are those that i really couldn’t find an english translation of but they’re there for completeness (if you’ve found one please comment!)
i’ve also got links to the french text of all works that are originally in french, because i read french and as said this list is just adapted from my personal notes hahaha

I suddenly felt the need to show of my extensive BSD (Mostly DOA) collection!
My manga shelves first of all! With my 5 Fyodor plushies and Chuuya, Aku and Dazai nendroids! And a few acrylic figures, BSD playing cards etc etc (I have the entire BSD manga that's been translated so far except vol.6 which is ordered and on the way along with majority of the litenovels, Beast, 4th volume of Anthology (since it had a Fyodor chapter in it) the second anime artbook, Harukawa's BSD artbook and the Season 3 guidebook).
Just a few BSD prints! Fyolai one is from Ironystrikes on Etsy!
My WIP DOA Ita bag! (DOA trio keychain also from Ironystrikes!)
DOA blanket I designed! (It's folded in half but there's more pictures of the DOA on the other half)
Fyolai body pillow! Once again drawn and made by myself!
And my Soukoku figures!
I also have more keychains and badges of the other miscellaneous BSD characters on another bag but I can't be bothered to find it.
Anyway... I have a problem and need help.
