next chapter, both dazai and atsushi are gonna be like BABE THIS ISN'T YOU to chuuya and akutagawa and I'm so ready for it

The single quote that summarizes Dazai better than anything else in the whole series.

"He's sharp witted with a mind like a steel trap. And he's just a childโ”a sobbing child abandoned in the darkness of a world far emptier than the one we're seeing."

From Odasaku in The Dark Era light novel

This line is the ultimate showcase of why Oda truly understands Dazai. he is able to see this terrifying Port Mafia executive, and see the crying scared child that has been buried so deep within him that even Dazai does not know its still there.

It is also one of the only lines in any book to actually make me cry when reading it, if you know someone who hates dazai, make them read this book. I promise that it shows Dazai better than any of the other books in the series.

Oda and Dazai have such an amazing relationship, I wish more people would see that.

enough sad soukoku angst. give me SILLY soukoku angst. give me 16 year old dazai dragging tired older brother odasaku on a "very important mission given to him by the boss" and it's just dazai watching chuuya on a date (oooooh) with comically oversized binoculars. the date goes horribly wrong, no dazai medalling required, and dazai feels nothing but successful. odasaku leaves halfway through, knowing he cannot stop this but not wanting to enable dazai.

give me sitcom levels of bullshitery skk or give me death.
