once again kunikida doppo being the agency's backbone fr
Headcanon that anytime anyone in the Agency gets a job they don’t feel comfortable taking, they’ll say Kunikida said no.
Even Ranpo and Yosano who are his superiors will just shrug like well I’d like to help but, Kunikida looked it over and has declined it.
Kunikida doesn’t know about it for the longest of time until Atsushi slips up and says it with him there.
Fortunately Kunikida, while confused agreed with him because I don’t want you taking such a task.
There were many conversations had later and it concluded with Kunikida saying to make let him know on such occasions.
Especially the teens.
Kunikida was surprised by it but he is rather touched that they trust him to take care of them like that.
And he vows to examine the cases they get through carefully so no one’s sent out on a case they aren’t comfortable with taking.
One time Fukuzawa got a call to meet with a rather unsavoury individual and without missing a beat simply said “I’ve consulted my second and I’m afraid I must decline your offer.”
at first i lol'ed... then i serioused..
Again with the artsyle
It's kunizai intended
The theme was royalty
Tiktok I did for 200 followers
Dazai hitting the griddy
Thinking about their parallels. I am NOT okay.
i dont think i’ll ever get over how at peace kunikida looks here. i don’t really know how to phrase if but it’s something about how kunikida has always been ready to sacrifice himself, how he has never shied away from death’s door, as if that is the only way he can truly fulfill his ideals
what will kunikida do when he finally achieves it all? i believe he sets this perfect, ridiculously high standard for himself for a sense of purpose, or rather a reason to live. will he still choose to live without it?
there’s something symbolic about how kunikida separates from his notebook when he sacrifices himself. it’s as if he is tethered to living because of his ideals, and when he goes, he leaves behind his notebook, releasing himself at last
jouno once asked if he was relieved to be freed from his self-inflicted burden. at that time, i believe the answer was still ‘no’, for it wasn’t fully his choice. he still had much to do, the agency was messy and running, he couldn’t truly die in peace
this time, even though i don’t believe he’s fully dead, i think kunikida is okay with dying here. because atsushi just saved junichirou! he chose to fight for what’s left instead of ceaselessly grappling for something already fading. it’s something that kunikida has taught him since the very first day—think about what you can do. kunikida himself wasn’t able to save them, but atsushi did, and in him, his ideals will continue to live. atsushi’s actions showed him that even if he dies, they’ll be okay. they’ll be okay without him
i think that’s why this is the most at peace we’ve ever seen kunikida. to know that his teachings have impacted someone and that it wasn’t all for naught. this is relief
TW: minor depiction of blood and minor nudity
I'm getting too lazy to post different things on different platforms soooo
Text:
"Which kid is yours?"
"I haven't decided yet..."
Atsushi: Hey, Kuni, why does Dazai keep calling (Your SI/OC) his senorita?
Atsushi: Is there something I'm not getting?
Ranpo: I call them my sugar mama.
Astushi: Ranpo, that's not.....
Ranpo: There's simply no other person out in the world that gives me a sugar rush like they do.
Astushi: ........
Kunikida: So, no wonder you can't finish your paperwork. They're the one giving you candy throughout your work day.
Ranpo: Hah.... If only Dazai knew they did.
Atsushi: ...........
Astushi: Ohhhh, the actual candy.....
Ranpo: What you thought I was talking about?
Kunikida: If Dazai knew,
Kunikida: *takes the candy bag from Ranpo*
Kunikida: ......you won't have any more candy to inhale.
◇ takes place 4 years after everything with the DoA and Hunting Dogs is settled
◇ atsushi grows his hair back out so it's a little past his shoulders
◇ sigma joins the ADA
◇ fukuzawa retires but still comes around to check on his kids former employees and is on standby in case of any future disaster
◇ kunikida and ranpo agree to co-lead the agency. kunikida takes care of most of the paperwork and employee affairs (pour one out for kida) while ranpo keeps an eye out for cases that could be DoA level threat
◇ everybody gets therapy 🥳🎉!! that government hush money compensation check for being attacked by the Hunting Dogs was partially spent on a getting therapists who could actually help them with their issues (pour another one out for the therapists bc the shit they have to deal with...)
◇ genderfluid atsushi (he/she/they), agender dazai (he/him or it/its), nonbinary sigma (they/he)
◇ kunichuuzai canon. dazai and kunikida got together first, then kunikida and chuuya and finally after many schemes dazai and chuuya talked abt their feelings for each other and got together shortly after
◇ atsushi joins a local community college because she realized she can do stuff for herself outside of working. he's studying literature
◇ kyoka and kenji tried to go regular school for a short while before they realized that that they hated it, so kunikida toutered them helped them get a GED (public school couldn't handle them anyway)
(Idt its that bad but just in case) tw: implied w33d usage, implied paranoia, implied hallucinations.
◇ reason why atsushi was finally sent to therapy was bc they were convinced to get high to help their anxiety (one guess who convinced them) and had a bad trip. they got extremely paranoid, mentioned times he would hallucinate and had several concerning statements about himself. when he sobered up the agency said they were going and she only agreed to go if dazai went and surprisingly dazai agreed to go.(dazai planned to go one session and was somehow conned by his therapist to continue going)
◇ found family dazai, atsushi, Kyoka
◇ but also blood family bc wow dazai and atsushi are half siblings!! (Their dad was a hoe, I'll get into in a separate post)
◇ atsushi's orphanage gets shut down (ada birthday gift for atsushi) and gets a documentary made due to the horrific treatment of the children there
◇ sparring buddies chuuya and atsushi
◇ kyoka, kenji, aya and q friendship
◇ after being turned into a vampire akutagawa has sharper canines than the average human and while his lungs are slightly better he carries any inhaler with him just in case
◇ atsushi has more control over his ability in the future and can now shift into his full tiger form on command and communicate with byakko
◇ dazai is also working to control his ability more and can now shut it off for a few minutes before it kicks back on
◇ byakko is a sentient ability similar to arahbaki. she has been around for centuries and has had many different hosts, one who was the author of The Book.
◇ how did they defeat fyodor? Uhhhh he got eaten by rats, turned into one, the tiger ate him and bc of ability bs he stayed dead next question
◇ dazai also has slightly long hair and now uses a cane
◇ tanazaki sibs finally work on their codependency issues
◇ yosano and tachihara go to lunch every few weeks to talk abt shunzen and bond
◇ akuatsulucy canon
◇ sigma and ranpo bet on random shit together and ranpo is surprised at how talented sigma is at betting
◇ ranpoe are long distance relationship atm but poe is making arrangements to move to yokohama
◇ mori steps down as head of mafia for...reasons and kouyou swifty takes charge of the pm (it was supposed to be chuuya but he threatened to leave the whole city and dazai agreed to help sooo kouyou)
◇ atsushi and lucy take edibles
◇ atsushi and yosano both hate being called angel. If you do it it's the fastest way to lose an arm

Fydor: Yukichi Fukuzawa, where have you buried all your employees? Tell me so I say
G'enchiro Fukuchi, Where have you buried all your dogs? Tell me so I say
Talking about the past of Fukuchi during the war: All the lives that you've stolen
Split in half, now bum and broken
Like your heart that was so eager to be hid
Talking about Mori, Dazai and Kyoka: He can't keep them all caged
They will fight and run away
Dazai and Kyoka to Mori: Mori, tell us so we say
Fydor: G'enchiro Fukuchi, where have you buried all your dogs? Tell me so I say
Fydor: Fukuzawa yukichi, Where have you buried all your employees? Tell me so I say
Fydor talking about Fukuzawa past as an assassin: Forest walls and starry ceilings
Barren memories that you're weaving
Like the fears that you keep inside your head
Talking about the agency: You can't keep them all safe
Talking about Kunikida, Tanizaki, Kenji and Atsushi: They will die and be afraid
Ranpo: Father, tell me so I say
The agency:(President, tell us so we say)
Fukuzawa: Amenogozen, where have you buried all my employees? Tell me so I say
Fydor Dostoevsky, where have you buried all my employees? Tell me, so I say
Amenogozen, where have you buried all my children? Tell me so I say
Fydor Dostoevsky, where have you buried all my children? Tell me, so I say
The agency: (Tell us, so we say!)
Fydor : you can't keep them all safe
They'll be far and fly away
The agency: President, tell us you will stay
We'll be far and fly away
I wanted so bad to do an animation with this song for the latest chapter, but I suck at drawing.
Anyway, I just didn't expect how the chapter went, but I it makes me scared.
When Fukuzawa will find out about Kunikida's death he will be very angry.
I hope he will beat the sh**t out of Fydor
When it’s the teen members of the agency who mess up or something, it’s usually Kunikida who talks and lectures them about it. Sometimes the others will join in like Dazai or Yosano and if it’s really serious Fukuzawa will get involved, but it’s generally Kunikida.
But when the senior members of the Agency mess up or something it’s always Fukuzawa who talks to them. The only one who gets a bonus Kunikida lecture with it is Dazai. And it’s always so surreal for the teens to watch them hang their heads theatrically and head to Fukuzawa’s office.
Kunikida’a lectures pretty much always start with "what the hell were you thinking! Oh that’s right, you weren’t!" While Fukuzawa ages like 30 years, sighs heavily into his tea and is just like "I’m not mad, just disappointed."
And yet both end them by offering support and making sure everyone’s okay. Because at the end of the day whatever mistakes were made can’t be changed, what we can do is go forward with what we’ve learned to change what comes next. And all these talks come from a place of concern, of care.
Kunikida put down his tea cup. "How do I know if my words will reach them?" Fukuzawa looked from his protege to the door, gesturing him to open it. Kunikida did so, and was surprised to see Atsushi on the other side. "Oh, erm sorry Kunikida I didn’t realise you guys were busy I can come later." Kunikida shook his head, they were just wrapping up anyway. "What’s wrong Atsushi?" Atsushi went quiet before explaining his issue. "I was going to do it alone but earlier you said to call one of you for help. And Miss Yosano is busy and Ranpo and Dazai are out."
Kunikida nodded "I’m glad you came to me. Go back to your desk, I’ll be there in a minute." Atsushi smiled, relieved and went. "You’ll know" said Fukuzawa, getting Kunikida’s attention. "You’ll know your words have reached them when they come back and ask for your more." He said with a proud smile.
Does anyone else remember how at the end of chapter 12 (I think) when Atsushi saved Kyouka and they jumped off the ship, Kunikida told him he did a good job? (Even though he wasn’t conscious to hear it.)
After looking back my brain has come to the conclusion that Kunikida was not just praising Atsushi for saving Kyouka, he was actually praising him for standing up for his ideals, defending himself, and succeeding in what he set out to do. After all, it was a big moment for Atsushi’s character development, and ideals are literally what Kunikida is all about.
Now that I think about it, I fear it is obvious.
Dazai is born in Aomori, and if you take out the “Ao”, it says Mori. That mfs has been following him since day one.
