Osamu Dazai - Blog Posts

The new BSD chapter is about to make me have my fisheye moment I swear.

wish i could go missing for a little bit and no one would freak out and then i could come back and they'd be like "did you have fun going missing" and i'd be like "yeah, thanks" and then i could do that every couple of months or so and it wouldn't be a big deal

I just want the world to know that I Pokémon battled Dazai in my dreams once.

I swear I could see Atsushi being brutally nice to Akutagawa just to fuck with him.

Just to confuse him.

Just to make him question all things.

(He learned it from Dazai)

everything is a reference. and i mean EVERYTHING, so here is a list of everyday things i associate with my favorite charas / ships / fandoms- i want you, YES YOU, to guess what their connection is (keep in mind, some may seem fairly obvious):

rats, snow, russia, ushankas, cellos (string instruments in general), literally anything white or purple, fish (mackerels especially), bandages, trench coats, bolo ties, suicide, slugs, small things, red tattoos, waistcoats, gravity, dress shoes, doughnuts, bicycle wheels (im so sorry if you understand this), glasses, raccoons, dogs, birds (doves), dolls, anything medical . . . .

add your own and i suppose ill guess what your reference is too!

I can't believe truck-kun isekai'd the famous author Dazai Osamu himself

can't stand them

Dazai as the Cheshire cat

I have a very sad hc but HEAR ME OUT

Okay so I saw a post that spoke about how Dazai didn't show any emotions when Mori killed the former boss right in front of him. Dazai was a child. Seeing a murder for the first time and… Nothing. No expression. Just acceptance. As if his body is here but not his mind. He's dissociating.

Look at that look. He's not focused. He's just looking at whatever is happening.

So what if it happens each time he commits a crime? What if each time he kills someone, he's not fully realising his actions and only realizes it later, but it doesn't hit him so hard because it happened slowly.

Well, I headcanon that one time, Dazai killed a bunch of innocent civilians for X or Y reasons. Mori told him to. So he did it. But he usually didn't kill innocent people. Usually it's the mafia's ennemis. So the realisation hit him right as everyone's already dead. He's there, surrounded by corpses. He's the reason they're dead. His hands is covered in blood. The realisation hit him so hard he thought he was gonna vomit (he didn't).

Very joyful 🫶🏻‼️‼️

THAT'S SAUR PRETTY 😻‼️

I wanna frame this.

Small headcanon that one day, Dazai got in a big depressed episode, He started screaming, throwing glasses, cups, plates and furniture on the floor. He then had a mental breakdown

(He drank a lot of alcohol)

Bonus : He went to Kunikida's house and they had a sleepover and they made cookies <3

Bro what if Port Mafia Dazai covered his eyes just so his ennemis think he's blind, and if they manage to gouge out Dazai's eye, then Dazai would just take off his bandage and would be like “Guess what? I'm not blind. April fool 🤭”

Y'all need to vote my boy Dazai he's trying hard

this is gonna be controversial

I kinda understand why Mori is so obsessed with Dazai being in the mafia. I mean, if we forgot abt the fact that he's called the Demon Prodigy, and is a genius, there's also something extremely interesting, and useful for Mori : His ability, No Longer Human.

You remember in Yosano's flashbacks, where Mori explained that powers were the new weapons. He said that the samurai disappeared because they did not understand that the era of the sword was over. And that the nations that won were those that managed to transform a simple cannon into a war machine. And today, superpowers lead the way. And that she had to force the hierarchy to open their eyes. Power are the new war machines. Powers are important. They're a part of our society. Yet, a random boy arrives, and erases it. This whole hierarchy. All these powers. He can delete it. He can take away your only means of defending yourself, of knowing, of fighting, he takes away a part of you. For years, people have controlled their power, and a kid not even 15 years old comes along and decides to take that away from you. As long as he's here, as long as you have any physical contact with him, your power won't work. A part of you won't work. As long as he has any contact with your ability, you won't have it. And that's scary. A man, a genius, a demon, is capable of deleting a part of you.

Like, imagine you're an adult, who managed to excel in their power. You are at the top of the hierarchy. And then, a random man erases it. You are now at your lowest. You're trapped. Especially if you based your attacks on your power, you're done.

Dazai arrives to unbalance the hierarchy. His power isn't for fighting. Your power is stronger than him. Yet, he manages to unbalance everything, what you have known, the hierarchy… It's scary af.

I headcanon that Dazai is born in 4:44 AM.

Because “4” is a cursed number. I think it's because it's said the same as the word “death” in Japanese.

I always wondered if Dazai's bandages on his eyes when he was in the mafia was like a reminder? Like, he wakes up in the morning, and he sees that he's still under Mori's influence. So that he doesn't forget, so that it haunts him every day. Like a cage. Something to remind him “You are not free, you are a murderer, a mafia executive”

And when Oda took it off, it's like he's saying “You are free now”. Dazai sees himself in the mirror, and won't see the bandages that reminded him of the monster he is

One of my biggest flex is that I made my french teacher buy "No Longer Human" 🗣️‼️

THIS IS AN OLD DRAWING WHEN I WAS LEARNING HOW TO USE CSP

bonus dazai bullshittery

Trust

I like to think that Chuuya understands why Dazai left and wasn't all that mad about it at first.

I think the hurt of being left built up over the four years. I think the first week or so Chuuya was like "Yeah? Well good for him I guess, better be quieter around now" and then he turns to tell Dazai something on a mission and he's not there. Of course he shrugs it off, no big deal he just need s a brief adjustment period. Shouldn't take long I mean how much can one person really affect your life?

And then he finds himself looking for Dazai to ask the name of the musical that has that one song. It got stuck in his head. Again. And it's annoying him and he makes it all the way to his living room before remembering Dazai's not there.

And then he sees the lump of Dazai's clothes on the couch and goes to tell him to at least put it away and he opens his mouth before remembers.

And then he makes food and when he's setting up his plate he notices he made enough for two. He won't admit it but he's not sure if that shit will remember to feed himself.

And then he's still buying the shampoo and conditioner Dazai likes. Not Chuuya's problem anymore, he thinks as he puts them away. Better to stalk up in case it's needed later.

And then he's still leaving Dazai's favorite blanket on the couch, he's still keeping bandages in his bathroom, still driving by the river to make sure there aren't any limbs sticking out, still watching the movies Dazai showed him and he wouldn't tell anyone but Dazai being gone affected everything and he's happy for him- really but if he ever sees him again he better have been just as fucked up.

And then he sees Dazai again, four years later on the day he came back from a mission. And he looks. Fine. Better than his Mafia days, better than when he was with Chuuya. Lucky him.

Yo what if Dazai did his whole speech in ch 101 not because he thought he is gonna kill Chuuya or intended to deceive fyodor, but because Dazai thinks he is gonna die.

gay cats that commit war crimes

silly doodle of dazai i made really fast except i colorpicked it from my ponytown cos of him

edit: i removed the highlights cause i realized i hated them

Waking up in the house of a man you haven't spoken to in years is certainly odd—at least for Dazai.

...Turns out being pathetically drunk has some advantages.
