why does aku have the sluttiest little waist when tenma tengai is activated like who did this
Bsd cats!! ♡
I saw that your pinned post was just like "ask me anything" lol so I was wondering, what do you think Kunikida's reaction to Atsushi dating Akutagawa would be?
OOOH. okay this is a fun one. I think that at first he'd have a gut reaction of terror and be really protective and try to talk atsushi out of being in a relationship with akutagawa. but after atsushi tells him about how he feels about akutagawa and why he loves him so much, kunikida would be more okay with it. probably would make a "if you harm him i will kill you" threat to akutagawa. over time I think he'd warm up to the idea of them dating and warm up to akutagawa. he's not disapproving or anything and he wants to see atsushi happy! he is going to act verrry protective though
shin soukoku are so imperfect and that is what makes them so good. what do you mean you hate this guy because he’s like looking in a mirror, but you can only see what you deemed as the flawed parts of yourself. what do you mean you are always putting up some kind of front around other people but you can show your enemy the worst and truest version of yourself. what do you mean you are so far into your rivalry that even dying for each other becomes a competition.
Yes I like higuchi. Yes I ship sskk. No I do not ship akuhigu. We exist 😔
@mi1ikan
this bit has absolutely no right to be this funny
Saw someone on Twitter saying that maybe Dazai image shattering and becoming the headmaster was because Atsushi saw Dazai for who he really was and now the headmaster and him are in the same level.
Two abusers who stripped the humanity out of children for "their own good"
I'm literally throwing up rn don't talk to me
what if Atsushi kept the coat. What if after all of this he tries to hand it to Akutagawa, who just swats it away and hugs Atsushi tight. What THEN
Nakajima Atsushi...and the slow steps it takes to fully believe in yourself. A lot of stories have the main character go through some deep monologue that ends with a boost of bravery and "I still have a long way to go"/"even if I fall I will get up again" message by the end, and that's not a bad thing at all. However, with atsushi it's so important to have a deeply wounded character who selfishly wants to hide and survive slowly take the steps needed to believe in his own heart.
A lot of people criticized atsushi for being too cowardly and whiny to be a protagonist, they remind me of the people in my life who rush me into "getting better", wanting him to develop at a pace faster than he can manage. but to me it's comforting to know that he acts like most of us. We are always afraid and full of doubts in life, sticking to much easier routes and bsd doesn't immediately condemn you for it. It's comforting to know that these slow, staggering steps are both normal and achievable, that you can find confidence at your own pace.
Thank you atsushi for being the main character ever.
So like
Akutagawa is in love with Atsushi
If you took this out of context this would genuinely look like an enemies to lovers romance manga scene 🙏
Also Harukawa wrote an illustrator's note (I think it's at the end of volume 5?) about how she draws eyes, and how she portrays the character's current growth, personality and aspect on the world through their eyes
Akutagawa's eyes have almost always been dark, the representation for how dark his life and character is
But Atsushi brings light to them
In chapter 121.5 where Akutagawa's eyes grow wide as he sees Atsushi die, it's not just a show of how shocked Akutagawa is, it shows how Atsushi lightens Akutagawa's eyes, how much he's affected him for the greater good. Atsushi brings out a new side to Akutagawa
His eyes are incredibly light as he recalls his memories and gets hit by Atsushi's death that wasn't even just a death, but a death to save him. To protect him
Because Atsushi thinks Akutagawa is worth protecting
So just, like, I really love how chapter 122 not only shows Atsushi finally seeing Akutagawa's past and fully understanding Akutagawa's trauma and even relating to him, but it also shows how Akutagawa truly feels about Atsushi (although the "and then..." definitely left us on a cliffhanger)
I love them
IMAGINING AKUTAGAWA WITH ATTACHMENT ISSUES AFTER ATSUSHI DIED IN FRONT OF HIM (or vice versa)
God I know they suck at actually communicating their feelings with words and instead die for each other, but I can't get the possibility of Akutagawa being majorly effected by Atsushi's death enough to where he can't bear to leave Atsushi alone, out of my head
(side note: I think Akutagawa should join the Agency. We already know from beast he'd make a pretty decent detective)
I know Akutagawa's terrified of losing Atsushi. And Atsushi had to die to save him for him to even realize that 🙏 Asagiri you wizard I love how you write Sskk's relationship
But like, just imagine an Akutagawa trailing Atsushi around like a lost dog (one could almost say...a stray dog) on his days off or Akutagawa constantly checks up on him and calls him or just like small little, caring things like that. Akutagawa with the realization of how much Atsushi means to him
Also, speaking of sskk clinginess; sskk reunion
Asagiri is most likely going to do what none of us expects with however he approaches the sskk reunion, but oh my goodness every new chapter that drops changes my ideas for how it'll unfold
I wonder if they'll talk. If they'll hug. They should probably hug. And talk. They really need to talk atp
And you know they're going to argue. But not a real argument, the kind of sskk argument that they only do to talk about their actual problems
Ohhhh there's just so many layers to sskk and I don't know if I can pluck them all apart. And right now I'm really just wondering about the what ifs of their changed relationship
(I'm absolutely PINING for a chance of Atsushi asking "do you hate me?" which makes Akutagawa have to answer with his current/future character growth)
