Dazai is my all-time favorite character because of how complex he is. I love that he isn't just a black-white character, he's grey and his morals and actions sometimes don't align with his intention, may it be good or not. I also love how he's one of the main characters but we know almost nothing about him and how his mind works, he's so complex and mysterious to the point that even Asagiri-sensei himself finds it hard to write on Dazai-POV
some of my favorite main characters are the ones that we know nothing about like dazai, giorno, etc. they're so interesting to follow because they are more unpredictable since we don't get inside views of their thoughts
Kinda disappointing that Dead Apple isn't here because the movie really gave depth to his character like how much he predicted about it. BUT ANYWAY, I LOVE THIS OMG
One of the reasons why I love this man. Hes not my favorite but hes definitely up there to my favorite complex characters of all time. Hes so famous but I wish that people would stop liking him just because of his face and comedic moments. Hes so much more than a funny suicidal dumbass (phrasing it that way doesnt even describe this man's in-depth character). Theres so much more to him than simple yes or nos or black and whites. People keep saying that he shouldve been the main character when that would be farther from necessary. Him not being the protagonist is the reason why hes so loved. I love how we get so much episodes about him but at the same time, still lack information about him. Asagiri did a great job with the character placement and making this series as a whole ITS JUST SUCH AN AMAZING SERIES THAT MORE PEOPLE SHOULD TALK ABOUT!
Here’s a detail about both anime and manga, the azure king and messenger arc was dazai’s entrance exam but the anime decide to move it to make things clean. also has anyone thought that kunikida may be related to azure king?
Yes!!! He's literally my all time fav character hearing this discussion just makes me love and so intrigued in dazai so much more! He's from the best anime and a really cool, mysterious and interesting anime character. I honestly cannot get enough of him. I really hope Kafka Asagiri-sensei gives us more details on how and why Dazai sees the world as he sees it and how he came this far in Bungou Stray Dogs.
I think you should also mention that in the light novel, the whole azure apostle happened before Dazai met atsushi and it was supposed to be Dazai's entrance exam
The way we don’t know most of his past. We don’t know where he was born, who his family was, what happened to him to make him suicidal at fifteen. All we know is that he met Mori at 14-15, and later then joined the mafia. That’s an interesting part of his character.
I'm my opinion, Dazai should have been the main character. I enjoyed his backstory way more and his character seems much deeper than Atushi. Don't get me wrong, I love Atushi, but he didn't work as the MC.
Yes but you also have to take into consideration that if dazai was the main character we would lose a lot of the mystery to the show one of the things that makes the show so great is that we have little insight into exactly how dazai perceives the world and his thought process,, don’t you think that the show would be a little boring if we knew everything about how dazai works. I personally think that atsushi is a much better mc to follow around and watch his interactions with the other characters as he also continues to learn about different ability users, I agree that dazais character is much deeper but I still think if dazai was the mc so much curiosity about the world would be lost plus atsushi is still growing and coming to terms with his past trauma and he is a lot more emotion driven compared to dazai who thinks more logically. In addition, having dazai as the main character would lose some of the purpose of the main plot. Again this is just my opinion.
@@oniLavra I agree with your opinions, Atsushi definitely was the most emotionally driven character. However, from a writing standpoint alone, it seemed like Dazai was always meant to be the MC. His past has a whole half of a season dedicated to it while poor Atsushi didn't have much backstory at all (from what I could tell. It wasnt as clear as Dazai's.) Dazai also seemed more involved in the plot. From what I remember, everything having to do with Fydoor was related to Dazai. As for the mystery aspect of Atsushi, his tiger ability was the classic "it was them all along" and I liked that. Atsushi also had the best character relationships with everyone because he didn't know who anyone was, unlike Dazai. Final thing, Oda dying was the saddest death in anime history.
To me Atsushi feels like someone we can personify as ourselves and the way he reacts to situations would be similar to how we would handle them Dazi imo feels better as a character who we get to see unfold rather than seeing him in full display
I actually like Dazai not just because he was a handsome anime boy. But he’s such a complex character who most likely struggles with mental health. He’s had a rough but mysterious past only we can speculate might have helped build his current character. On top of that despite how he jokes about suicide and his comedic suicide acts, they actually probably come from depression. Once again only we can speculate might be true, both the depression and how things lead to it. If the depression thing is real as well, it’s something I can relate to as somebody who does have depression. I often struggle to live and make jokes about it as a way to pass it off as nothing. Much like he does. He’s my favorite character for how complex and relatable he is. I haven’t watched much of the anime yet, but I just already love Dazai for that reason.
The real life Osamu Dazai also hated Chuuya (and the real life Chuuya hated him back). It's funny that this dynamic was included in the manga and anime.
mori meeting dazai at 14 after taking him in as a suicide patient and that same night murdering the pm boss isnt canon lol, its just really well received fanon pls dont believe this shit its probably false
@@tinahovhannessian4888 yeah it isnt canon at all, dazais life before the pm boss was killed and his life in between then and the time the 15 arc starts is a complete mystery
I honestly love when authors write such complex characters that even they struggle to keep up with the character theyre writing about- hes a likeable guy in the ADA with all his comedic suicidal show but i especially love it when they reveal something about him that keeps throwing us off. It feels like sharing something so little that would make me crave to know more. Hes a gray character and hes still my favorite because of how interesting he is.
This has nothing to do with this video but I think it would be a great idea if you speedran bleach before the new arc comes out in October. I’m sure a lot of people need a recap of what happened cuz it’s been like almost a decade by now lol
It's kind of a metaphor. Most characters; Dazai here, the MC and many others are actually, if not literally orphaned, alone and lonely in life. No home, no where to go, just straying the world of danger like stray dogs. While Bungou means “literary” because most(if not all) characters are based on real-life literary authors.
Who else loves Bungo Stray Dogs?
Favorite anime behind bleach and yu yu hakusho
I love this show, I’m collecting the manga and I can’t wait for the next season!

Wait that makes no sense. Because Dazai was already apart of the agency.
@@myoldchannel0 so was Atsushi. The entrance exam comes after joining as a final final exam, kinda, to see if you’re a permanent member
Same i thought kunikida is azure king lol
i think yess.. the voice, how the sasuke said that kunikida's idea same as the azure
One of my all time favorite animes im so glad your covering it!!!
Same
Poor odasaku, I wanted more of him
K but Dazai left te mafia because of him
And then there's the BEAST LN.

So why was atsushi involved?
@@myoldchannel0 that only in the light novel

We don’t know where he was born, who his family was, what happened to him to make him suicidal at fifteen. All we know is that he met Mori at 14-15, and later then joined the mafia.

Technically speaking Dazai is the second main character- he's the secondary protagonist
Which characters should we cover next?
The life of muzan kibutsuji
The life of Kawaki updated
Furhur Bradley (fullmetal alchemist brotherhood)

Dazai has so much depth to him there’s still so much we don’t know about him, like who his parents are and his familial situation
i was going to do a project on osamu dazai, and i didnt realize this was covering the osamu dazai in the anime
kind of ironic that osamu dazai has a character that constantly tries to kill himself named after him
Bungou Stray Dogs as a whole was inspired by authors
The real life Osamu Dazai also hated Chuuya (and the real life Chuuya hated him back). It's funny that this dynamic was included in the manga and anime.
If he actually didn’t get saved by Atsushi, this video would be 3 mins lol
Kunikida was right by the bank on the other side… so it probably would have depended on how much Dazai had annoyed him that day 😅
@@mizuki2264 I forgot I commented this
Lol I didn’t even expect a reply 🤣

Dazai is literally the MC of the anime
Please do more Bungou Stray Dogs characters

I love how there are different people per video its amazing
Its so weird to see one of ur favorite shows just suddenly on youtube
Love the Vids keep them up and when are you going to make the life of luff part two
This has nothing to do with this video but I think it would be a great idea if you speedran bleach before the new arc comes out in October. I’m sure a lot of people need a recap of what happened cuz it’s been like almost a decade by now lol
I think he has done it
I really love This!
But im a bit disappointed you didn’t go into the light novels. Which I understand but great video regardless
After that you finds out why Dazai pick Sigma as a weapon and chuuya is back

Why is the anime called Bungo Stray Dogs when it has nothing to do with stray dogs
It's kind of a metaphor. Most characters; Dazai here, the MC and many others are actually, if not literally orphaned, alone and lonely in life. No home, no where to go, just straying the world of danger like stray dogs. While Bungou means “literary” because most(if not all) characters are based on real-life literary authors.
Akutagawa is pronounced Ahk-Tag-Oo-wa roughly. rather than Akootogawa.
Just my personal opinion. But this is not a voice for CZcams. Way too squeaky, high pitched, and nasally. Very difficult to listen to.
