something i’ve been thinking about is dazai’s bandages during his time in the pm vs beast dazai
i’ve seen people talk about how dazai’s right eye is covered in the pm, sort of symbolizing how he’s shut off his emotions during that period of his life.
meanwhile, in beast, the bandages cover the opposite eye. thinking about it, this does represent his motivations during the course of beast—dazai’s actions can be perceived as purely emotional by the end.
after all, dazai wanted to preserve a world where oda was able to carry out his dream of becoming a writer, even at the expense of his own life. through beast, we get to see a somewhat more emotional dazai, even if outwardly he still tries to suppress these feelings
tbh i’m struggling to fully put into words the incoherent thoughts in my brain but im hoping the bsd fans of tumblr can pick up on the brain waves im transmitting telepathically through this post ykyk
