#chuuya x dazai
Chuuya: You look dead
Dazai: What do you mean I look gay?
Chuuya: Wha- I said dead-
Dazai: Dead, gay, same thing. I’m both
Dazai: I love you
Chuuya: That’s gay
Dazai: We’ve been dating-
Atsushi: You know I love flying
Akugatawa:W-what?
Atsushi: Flying into your arms
-
Dazai: You know I love flying
Chuuya: The fuck makes you think you can fly?
Most of Dazai’s best moments/turning points were during the sunset:
“The Armed Detective Agency will oversee during the twilight.” (Season 3, episode 11)
1. When he found Atsushi
2. When he first completed a mission with a partner
3. When he considered Atsushi’s idea to team up with the Port Mafia (meaning he’d face his past)
4. When his best friend Oda, died in his arms (and he decided to save lives and be on the good side)
- maybe he has a thing for the bright red orange hue (?)
oooops…

You know what’s an underrated dynamic? When they’re both just assholes.
To everyone. To each other. But then there’ll be those little moments of precious fluff that just make you go—

Chuuya: Dazai, you ate a chair.
Dazai: *Gets down on one knee*
Chuuya: Oh my god, it’s finally happening.
Dazai: *Falls over*
Chuuya: The poison is kicking in.

Idk i didn’t watch the show
Soukoku: Oblivious
So, today on tik tok I came across someone talking about Soukoku and they said: “One thought the other didn’t care, so he pretended to hate them. The other thought the other hated them, so he pretended to not care.” which is honestly such a great view on their relationship and I was thinking about adding onto that.
“One thought the other didn’t care, so he pretended to hate them” is literally Chuuya. “one thought the other didn’t care” there has never been a particular moment were Chuuya has acknowledged or even thought about the possibility of Dazai even caring for him. Not that I fully blame Chuuya for that, Dazai always expresses his care in a very subtle manner. And another thing that I notice is that the only time that Dazai ever openly expressed his care for Chuuya was in a time were Chuuya had no time to thorughly acknowledge it since he had to make a choice that would affect his view on his own humanity. But in the end, Dazai always pretends he doesn’t care for Chuuya, always saying he wants him dead, and the only times were he shows his care is either him being dangerously subtle about it or when Chuuya is in his corruption state.
“so he pretended to hate them.” Of course, I don’t particulary believe that Chuuya’s hatred for Dazai is always fake, there are instances where his hatred for Dazai is very real. But most of the time, its obvious that Chuuya over exaggaretes his words, and he does tend to lie to Dazai at times about his true feelings for him. But when Chuuya is in a vulnerable state, or especially if its a specific moment that involves him using corruption, you can tell that Chuuya’s feelings for Dazai go beyond hatred. In truth, Chuuya is never afraid to openly express his hatred towards Dazai, even when Dazai isn’t around.
“The other thought the other hated them, so he pretended to not care” is exactly like Dazai. “The other thought the other hated them.” Now you might be thinking, would Dazai really believe Chuuya’s hatred when Chuuya has openly expressed his trust anf care for him? The answer here is yes. Although Dazai is a very smart person who can easily read people, it’s different with Chuuya. Chuuya has almost every right to hate Dazai, especially now that he literally left the port mafia without even saying a word. And Chuuya has expressed genuine anger and hatred for Dazai in the past. Dazai views himself as Chuuya’s reliability. And he belives that the explanation for Chuuya trusting and caring for him like he does is simply because Chuuya needs him for corruption—which of course is far from the truth but a safe and logical assumption for Dazai.
“So he pretended not to care” Dazai is very good at hiding his true emotions, he has been doing so for years. Hiding his care for Chuuya is beneficial so that he can protect himself but also he can protect Chuuya too, especially to protect Chuuya from Mori or Fydoor or literally any person that Dazai would find as a true enemy who could outsmart him and hurt the ones he cares for. Chuuya can protect himself, but its always better to have that one extra sheet of protection. The other reason he hides his care is to protect his own pride, he doesn’t want people to know that he cares fon the one person who “hates” him and for that one person he claims to “hate”.
In the end, both of them are aware of their motovations, which is confirmed bu Asagiri himself. But when it comes to feelings, these two are not the best at truly grasping them.
“Don’t shoot a dead body so pointlessly”
Today I will be discussing the scene from the anime/light novel 15 in which Chuuya kicks Dazai’s gun, as suggested by my the one and only: @ryuuaka713!!!
When I first saw this part in the anime, I didn’t really grasp the concept of the scene. Of course, Chuuya kicking the gun from Dazai’s hands and basically telling him to not disrespect the dead shows us a glimpse of Chuuya’s humanity and where his moral code stands but… Did Chuuya’s move impact Dazai in any way?
Well, the answer is yes! (obviously).
Firstly, lets take a look at Dazai’s point of view. Dazai was 14 years old when he first joined the port mafia, therefore his view on the world was grim and dark, his view on humans was no exception. I always have believed that Dazai’s view on humans was as clouded as Atsushi’s, if someone was on the bad side they were bad and if someone was on the good side they were good. Of course, that view changes when he meets Chuuya and Oda. But beforehand, ive always thought that Dazai was the kind of boy who thought that everyone who was involved in mafia and gangs probably indulged themselves with power and homoicde. But Chuuya proved him wrong.
Dazai has always been a mysterious character, what I mean by that is that we rarely ever know how he is truly feeling. But usually when he is around Chuuya his mask comes off for a small moment, in this case Dazai couldn’t hide his feelings of shook and amusement.
As its stated in the text, he had an expression of wonder—he was astonished, he was shooked, he was amused. He did not expect a former gang leader and killer to respect the dead. But on a grimer note, this made him realize how cruel and inhuman he is in comparasion to someone who is pretty much in the same position as him and the same age as him, to Dazai this was a wake up call, and this made Dazai’s gap from humans to become even bigger, the fact he is reffering to Chuuya, a literal gang leader as an “ordinary boy” speaks volumes on where he believes his own humanity stands, moreover—he feels devoid of his humanity and Chuuya became a walking reminder of that.
Wierdly enough, this scene sort of reminds me of when Chuuya uses corruption and Dazai has to stop him, bringing him back to his roots, to his humanity. But similarly to Dazai, Chuuya feels this sort of void or this sort of reminder that there is a possibility that he may not be human and Dazai is Chuuya’s walking reminder of this too.
Thie gun scene wasn’t the only time that Chuuya gets frustrated with Dazai’s cruelty, especially since Chuuya does see Dazai as human and is aware that Dazai can be more than just an emotionless mafioso.
Similarly to the past scene, Dazai disrespects the dead. In this case he disrespects a deceased mafia executive. And Chuuya reacts violently, punching him across the face and saying the one thing that could hurt Dazai the most, that no one would believe that he is human.
Dazai’s face here speaks louder than his words ever will. You can tell that he is hurt. But he wasn’t just hurt by Chuuya’s words, at least, thats not how I view it. When Chuuya punched Dazai, it made Dazai realize that he crossed the line, that he said something that to someone as human as Chuuya was cruel and inhuman, giving Dazai once again a wake up call that he is lacking his humanity. After the punch, Dazai says “Im human too, you know?” which seems like a desperate way of trying to presuade himself out loud that he is human. The hurt look in his face shows us the realization that he feels that he will never achive his humanity, and that he will be trapped in this sick and twisted mindset forever.
But no matter how Dazai feels about himself, that will never change his complete admiration and appreciation for Chuuya, as a partner and as a human.
Of course, all that changes after Oda’s death. But before Oda, it was Chuuya who was indirectly changing Dazai’s perspective on himself and humanity.
Andddd thats it for today guys!!! Thank you for reading!!
