Bsd Fukuzawa - Blog Posts
Fukuzawa: *holding Ranpo* This is Ranpo. He is intelligent for his age. He doesn’t get along with others but I love him dearly.
Mori: *holding Chuuya* This is Chuuya. He is more behaved than Dazai. I lost Dazai. I don’t know where he went. I think he set a house on fire.
Yes! This is the best day of his life!

BSD characters as iconic Kardashian moments:
************************************
Yosano: those are cute jeans
Ranpo: you're cute jeans
Yosano: those are mine?
Ranpo: no
Yosano: I thought you said your cute jeans. Those are mine?
Ranpo: nooo. YOU ARE CUTE JEANS
Yosano: huh? 😧
************************************
(During a meeting)
Dark era Dazai: why cuz Boss, just wants it in his schedule---
Mori: maybe if you had a fucking business you were passionate about, you'd know what it takes to run a fucking business, but you don't. So don't even act like you know what I am talking about.
************************************
*Dazai Chuuya 15*
Dazai: Chuuya has this ugly crying face that he makes
(Chuuya getting scolded by Koyo)
Chuuya: you are sitting there laughing, it's not funny, get out of here if you are gonna continue to laugh and make fun of me!
Dazai: (continues laughing)
************************************
Kenji(holding a piglet): Kyouka-chan to the foyer, I have a little surprise for you 😄
Kyouka: is that a chicckkeeenn? 😃😃
Atsushi: (she thinks that's a chicken? What kind of chicken looks like that)
************************************
(Dazai getting arrested for his multiple war crimes)
Fukuzawa: all of us are trying to be as cool as we can be for Dazai-----Yosano can you stop taking pictures of yourself, your co-worker is going to jail!
Yosano: I feel like I am gonna barf
Dazai: good, throw up....
************************************
(during a deadly mission)
Chuuya: my hat is gone! Omg I am gonna cry. My hat is gone.
Tachihara: Chuuya-san, there's people that are dying 🙄
************************************
Poe: Like, I feel like every year has a new energy, and I feel like this year is all about like, the year of realising stuff. And everyone around me, we're just like, realising things.
Lousia: what is he is talking about?
Mark: who knows
************************************
Just the idea of Atsushi going out of his way to decorate his house for the new years using all the money he has to make Kyouka happy comes into my head----
I do think ever since Kyouka moved in with Atsushi he has changed his lifestyle. He bought new furniture, he makes good food at home and keeps the house warm. Cuz Atsushi is never letting his little sister have anything less than what she deserves.
Kunikida: Atsushi came to get his salary in advance again. Do you want me to check on him?
Fukuzawa: no, don't. It's fine
Kunikida: I hope he's not wasting his money like Dazai does....
Fukuzawa: he doesn't. I know it.
*meanwhile*
Kyouka: you didn't have to buy the bunny plushie, I didn't need it!
Atsushi: of course I had to. It's your Christmas gift.
Kyouka: I don't need gifts. I already have everything
Atsushi: no you don't. I want you to have all the things a little girl should have
Kyouka: I already have you, I didn't need anything else.
Atsushi: *starts crying*
Kyouka: *pat pat* I made some cake big bro, let's eat.
Reblogging so it can go into the magic archive of writing ideas.
If anyone can give me good fic recs about Fukazawa and Ranpo being father and son or anything about Dazai and Atsushi and/or Akutagawa’s complicated big brother/little brother relationship I will give you 2 donuts 🍩🍩
Fukuzawa: Did you eat that entire bag of Reese’s?
Ranpo: In my defense, I identify as a party.
✨ My BSD hot takes/unpopular opinions ✨:
1. Identifying BSD characters as Queer, is not problematic. STOP being so Heteronormative. Gay characters are not gonna kill you.
If I see another "BuT tHe ChArAcTeRs nEvEr SaId tHeY aRe GaY" I would bomb you 💣/j
2. Skk/SSKK/Fyolai/other popular ships, exist because people like it. If you don't ship them, don't engage with their content. Not all shippers act crazy and toxic. Stop blaming everything on shippers.
3. Atsushi/Kyouka is problematic, stop justifying it with "only 4 year age gap". Kyouka is a CHILD, ship her with Kenji if you want. Atsushi, like a normal 18 year old would never look at a highschool freshman and date her. Even if they date in the future, he knew her when she was younger and they had a sibling like dynamic. Lucy is a way better love interest to Atsushi (Don't know if this is an unpopular opinion tho, but I saw some people justifying it 😐😐😐)
4. DAZAI IS NOT EVIL. HE IS FAR FROM EVIL. He is, despite being super popular and the face of BSD, the most mischaracterized and villified character. Morally grey characters exist??!!!
5. Mori is a way worse person than Dazai ever was.
6. PM members get a free pass for any heinous crime they commit by being hot or babygirl-ified (still love them tho, we do not often discuss how bad their actions have been, you can like criminals and acknowledge they are criminals in fiction. I would add DoA to this too, but it's worse with the PM)
7. Akutagawa's abuse of Kyouka shouldn't be forgotten just because Dazai abused Akutagawa.
8. Mori emotionally manipulated and abused Dazai when he was a teen. Just because it wasn't physical, doesn't mean it was nothing.
9. Atsushi is NOT a soft boy, he is way bitter, salty and sarcastic than we give him credit
10. Poe is important to Ranpo and their friendship/relationship is wholesome as hell
11. Ranpo and Yosano's friendship is way better than them being in a relationship in the future
12. FukuFuku is better than Fukumori (imo!!!!)
13. Buying real authors work after watching BSD is actually a really good thing, since more Gen z kids (or other people) will read classics
14. There are layers to Atsushi and Akutagawa relationship/rivalry, and they have the MOST important relationship (not meaning romantic, just in general) in the entire canon.
15. Kunikida and Yosano could be a power couple
16. Fyodor is not a great villain (yet)
17. Nikolai CARRIES the DoA
18. Sigma shouldn't be in the ADA, he needs a happy home, family and some time to adjust to normal life
19. Q and Elise are both underused characters and could become a great dynamic
20. Ango deserves more love, the amount of pressure and stress he deals with is INSANE
21. It's OKAY if everyone joins the fandom for Dazai or skk (I did at first too!!)
22. Higuchi is annoying as hell. I do not get her hype, I like her but not as much as most people (just personal opinion, do not flame me 😭)
23. Everyone in The Guild is forgettable or boring (except Fitzgerald, Poe and Lucy. I like Louisa, but I forget her all the time)
24. Hetero ships are just not that great/interesting in BSD to me 🤷🏻♀️ (except maybe AtsuLucy or rare pairs) and female characters are not best utilised, I wish they play more major roles (can't wait for Agatha to arrive!!)
25. Some fan theories/arts get the story better than "canon" stuff at times. Fanon is NOT always the worst (sometimes enjoyable when the canon gets too dark or sad)
26. Toxic ships are okay in fiction as long as they are legal. Humans like toxic things, we consume it like junk food 💅🏻
(These are all personal opinions of mine and do not matter. Feel free to disagree. But, do not hate or be toxic!!!! 😇😇😇😇)
(PS: I compiled all these because of posts I have seen in, Reddit, Pinterest, Twitter and sometimes Tiktok. These aren't really abt you Tumblr folks. I meant to post this on reddit but did not have the courage or mental strength lol)
NO MATTER WHAT ANYONE SAYS I will always love Skk, you can't make me hate them, never!!!!
I was going to add RanPoe too but I have never really seen people actively hating on that ship. Most people love it or are neutral but I rarely see anyone hating it!
We all have a ship that's so popular that people often call it overrated. What's yours?
*Atsushi got drunk during a new year's party*
Atsushi: I have been here for some time now. And all this time I have been repressing my feelings to not hurt anyone. But I want to speak my mind today
Dazai: cheers! Atsushi-kun! Say whatever you want, no-one would stop you
Atsushi, coughs: ahem ahem...okay. Kunikida-San, you were a math teacher. BOOM ROASTED
Kunikida: *spit's his drink out*
Atsushi: Dazai-san, you have 1000 ex's, nobody wants to stay with you. BOOM ROASTED.
Dazai, chuckles: that was a good one
Atsushi: Chuuya-san, you are 5'3. BOOM ROASTED.
Chuuya: WHAT THE FUCK YOU SAID KID?
Dazai: this is hilarious
Atsushi: Akutagawa, you look like a malnourished Victorian child who likes hot-topic. BOOM ROASTED.
Akutagawa: Jinko, when I get to you!
Atsushi: Ranpo-san, you are a glorified man-child. BOOM ROASTED.
Ranpo, eating dino nuggies: I won't deny
Atsushi: Yosano-sensei....you literally save our lives, I can't say anything bad about you
Yosano: awwww
Chuuya: that's a bit unfair!
Atsushi: Poe-san, you are a simp. BOOM ROASTED.
Poe, watching everything hiding behind a door: y-you actually noticed me, I am flattered!
Atsushi, takes a deep breath: Fukuzawa-san....you spend most of the ADA budget on cat food. I actually agree with that.
Fukuzawa: *nods gravely*
Atsushi: and...Junichiro-kun....you and your sister....do I have to say it? You two are fuc---
Kunikida, drags Atsushi out of the room: that was enough drinking for you!!!!!
*the next morning*
Dazai: I didn't know you had all of this sass inside you!!! That was amazing. You should do it more~
Atsushi, horrified, hiding his face:......I SAID WHAT????
⚠️ SPOILERS CHAPTER 113 ⚠️

WTF DID I JUST READ? WHAT WAS THAT!
Let me just organise my thoughts:
The old men Yaoi was expected but it still killed me
The last panel was so chilling and traumatic with Aya's cheerful words and Fukuzawa's expression 😭
Why wasn't Fukuzawa holding Fukuchi in his arms????
SIGMA IS ALIVVVEE
WHERE IS NIKOLAI? Did he go to bury Fyodor's hand or smtg?
FYODOR AND BRAM HAVE HISTORY
So that MF is immortal or really really old or smtg
There's NO way an immortal being like Fyodor dies by a helicopter falling on him!
Before dying (allegedly) Fyodor had mentioned "that man" as his rival before Dazai, could it be Bram? 🤔
Bram serving as usual 💅
Sigma looked like Sleeping Beauty (maybe you should have kissed the Princess instead of throwing him down 15 times Chuuya 🙄)
Fyodor has more Jesus allegories
Dazai wasn't in Fukuzawa's thoughts about the ADA..... maybe he is going to transfer to PM and the reason Chuuya was sent to rescue him was because they were going back to Mori together
NO AKUTAGAWA UPDATE (come on this was his birthday week 🥺)
CHUUYA LOST HIS VAMPIRE TEETH AHHH
WTF IS FYODOR? WTH IS GOING ON WITH HIM
I have so many more thoughts but mostly-----I really want to track down Asagiri to ask him wtf is going on here
I can't understand anything
I'll go and watch some yt shorts
This is all too much for my brain to process (I understand Sigma now)
Since Yosano is off-limits she won't be considered.
1. Dazai: it makes no narrative sense to make him join the Port Mafia again, when he left at his own accord. The reason he left and changed himself as a person was because of his promise to Oda and him getting back to the Mafia takes all the weight from that promise. We already have a BSD 15 manga that's about Dazai being in the Mafia and the skk shenanigans, we honestly don't need more. Mori seems like he wants Dazai back in the Mafia, in a keep your friends close and your enemies closer fashion. Dazai going back to the Mafia can be interesting, but it's not good for Dazai's character arc. (Still has a chance)
2. Atsushi: since he is the protagonist, it makes the most sense for him to get transferred. Just like how we saw the ins and outs of ADA, we get to see how the current Mafia works on the regular basis. It would be interesting to see his interactions with Mori. We definitely like SSKK team up, now they will be in the same team too (maybe that's why the last scene of S5 they are working together, the transfer already happened). I want Canon Atsushi and Chuuya to interact!!! Their dynamic in Wan gives me so much serotonin.
3. Kunikida: while he can be quite a good asset, his ideals are too important for him to actually do something against it for the PM. He is a bit like Oda in that respect, a Mafia member who won't kill.
4. Ranpo: doesn't have abilities but his smarts is what makes him stand out among the rest of the ADA. But the biggest value in him is that he is practically Fukuzawa's son, someone whom he cares for greatly. Making Ranpo transfer to PM would be a huge slap on the face for Fukuzawa.
5. Junichiro: is the most hinted to actually join the PM. He is also the only ADA member to openly say his abilities could suit the Mafia and he might transfer there if no one else does. It's clear he has quite the violent side to him and the instincts to kill. He could be an interesting addition to the PM, and it paves the way for Tanazaki's backstory. I also wonder if Naomi would join the PM too, or she would stay with the ADA opposing her brother or leave the agency to remain neutral.
6. Kenji: is a highly unlikely choice for the PM. He has a strong ability but his personality isn't simply suited for Mafia. Although it would be funny to watch Kenji change the Mafia's heart and have innocent fun.
7. Kyouka: another ex-mafia member. She is a good choice, as her ability is really strong and good for the mafia. But since she too left (kicked out); her going back doesn't add to her character. While it might seem like Kouyou can influence Mori to take Kyouka back, but she already has accepted that Kyouka should stay in the light and stay away from the Mafia lifestyle (Aku also wants Kyouka to be happy).
Maybe Asagiri pulls another card and makes Fukuzawa transfer so he can complete his old man Yaoi arc with Mori, who knows? (/j)
Atsushi, confused after a mission: what exactly is the relationship between Dazai-san and Chuuya-san?
Fukuzawa: they are enemies
Kunikida: more like ex-coworkers
Yosano: definitely, enemies with benefits
Kyouka: best friends!
Kenji: they help each other out in times of great trouble like good neighbors :)
Junichiro: Aren't they rivals?
Naomi: I thought they were Ex-boyfriends!
Haruno: I heard they got divorced
Atsushi, even more confused: they were married????
*Everyone looks at Ranpo*
Ranpo, takes his Lollipop out: Gay.
Ps: Ranpoe is Enemies TO lovers since they are no longer fighting. Also Jouno and Tecchou don't count, since they are technically still on the same side despite fighting.
This is the Double Black generations~
Will they continue the legacy after Atsushi and Aku?
A detail that I always found curious in bsd is how in fifteen Dazai needs to consciously activate his ability, but in the current time of the story he doesn't. At first I just thought Dazai had trained his own ability to the point where he could keep it active all the time, but Dazai's ability doesn't really seem very important to his work in the mafia, because we only see him using No Longer Human a few times during the light novels that take place during the time he was in the Port Mafia, so I don't believe this was something trained by Dazai, but rather the effect that All Men Are Equal has on him.
We know that Fukuzawa's ability is a suppression ability that influences the abilities of ADA members, allowing the agents themselves to adjust and control their powers, so it makes sense that joining after the ADA, Dazai made No Longer Human always be activated, so he couldn't be affected by abilities attacks even if he was caught by surprise.
The fact that the agents themselves can adjust their abilities with the help of All Men Are Equall made me think about the other ADA members, and how they are affected by Fukuzawa's ability. In Yosano's flashback, it's never said that she can only heal people with fatal wounds, and when Yosano refuses to heal Tachihara's brother (who Mori says is not seriously injured) she says that she doesn't want to heal him, not that she can't, so I believe that after everything Yosano went through in the war and with Mori, she herself chose to only be able to heal people who were almost dying, so she doesn't feel like she was reducing the value of the lives of those she heals, and so that others detectives of the agency understand the value that their lives and wounds have, and don't end up like the soldiers in war.
In Kenji's fight against Tetchou, we have a flashback of a conversation between Kunikida and Atsushi, and Kunikida says that Kenji's ability is driven by his anger, the angrier he gets, the more powerful he will be, however, his hunger can calm him, and I wonder if that might have something to do with Fukuzawa's skill. Kenji is a very calm person, and Kunikida says that this prevents his monstrous strength from coming out, so creating a way to calm him down so that his ability doesn't go out of control may have been Kenji's own choice when he joined the agency.
Kunikida only using his ability in his notebook of ideals may also have been his own choice. We know how connected to his ideals Kunikida is, and he says that all of his future and ideals are written in that notebook, so it makes sense that he would want his ability, an important part of his life, to be in his notebook too. On the other hand, All Men Are Equal could be the reason why Kunikida can only create objects the size of his notebook, but I can't see a specific reason for this choice.
I don't see many ways in which Fukuzawa's ability can affect Tanizaki's Light Snow, other than limiting the area in which he can use his ability. We know that Tanizaki can be very aggressive if provoked, so the fact that his ability can only be used at a short or medium range may be to prevent him from doing more damage than necessary when angered.
I believe all of these assumptions make a lot of sense, based on what we've seen of the influence of Fukuzawa's ability on Atsushi (forbiding him from fully transforming into a tiger, and from losing his mind while using his ability) and Kyouka (allowing her to control Demon Snow without her phone), and I really hope this topic is explored at some point during the manga.
Damn, Asagiri must really hate father figures
Art collab/art switch!!
I drew @carrotkicks sends them to school AU and Carrot drew my Murase AU, and then we traded and colored each other's piece!

It was fun very fun, thank you for doing this with me!! :D
Days at the cafe
listen if the existence of the book means there are an infinite number of realities then there’s at least one where fukuzawa took in the both of them and the ada was born on two pillars instead of just one
