can we talk about Dazai desperately trying to pull from his tragically limited will to live, trying to hand Oda all the tricks he tried to develop for himself to find a reason to stay alive like everyone else seems to have, all because seeing someone he cares about give up on living was too hard?
Can we talk about how it shows that despite his grim outlook on life, Dazai still wants to try to figure it out, because there has to be something he's missing, he just needs to look harder, and can Oda come with him to search for it, they will figure it out together?
Can we talk about how Oda gave up, but didn't want Dazai to follow suit, so he gave Dazai his own tricks he developed for himself to find meaning in his life: help people, take care of those who need it most, be good, then at least the world won't appear so grim.
They were friends, they recognized each other's darkness as their own, and both tried (clumsily, a bit insensitively) to give the other the tools to get out of that darkness. Dazai wasn't equipped to help a man whose darkness came from violence, but Oda had somewhat made the leap from bad to good before it all came crashing down, so he tried to hand that knowledge to his friend, to give him something different, before his death took that last opportunity from him.

Doodle dump!
Scenes from the first three chapters of my fic "We've Come from Ugliness", in which teenage Odasaku happens across kid Dazai on one of his jobs. Hilarity(?) ensues.
Tbh I really just wanted to give Odasaku a cool outfit lol.

“This is the only world where he’s alive and writing novels. I can’t let that world disappear.”
Those are Dazai's words in BEAST. They are painfully tragic, the proof of a man's dreams scorned by fate. BUT, through the power of speculation and canonical infinite realities, here are my suggestions:
1: There are worlds where Oda is alive, but gave up on writing novels. Angst levels variable, from fulfilling life with missed opportunities, to debilitating broken dreams and regrets. (other option: a world where Oda never got the idea of writing stories at all)
2: There are worlds where Oda wrote, but died anyway. Angst levels from acclaimed published author gone too soon, to unfinished draft left behind.
That's why I think scenarios like camp counsellor Oda who comes up with the best ghost stories to tell around the campfire but never even thought of writing them down, or Oda who missed the opportunity to read those books and meet Natsume, or Oda who did not die against Gide but gave up on writing for having killed again, are all plausible realities. No other reality being as ideal as Oda with his kids in the ADA writing novels like in BEAST doesn't mean he is doomed to die unfulfilled every single time. to me.

My eyebrows always crawl up to my hairline when I see people saying that Oda didn’t truly understand Dazai or know who he was behind his cheerful facade bc have you seen the Dark Era light novel
"You should know that. Whether you're on the side that takes lives or the side that saves them, nothing beyond your own expectations will happen. Nothing in this world can fill the hole that is your loneliness. You will wander the darkness for eternity."
--'Awaken me from this oxidizing world of a dream."
That was when Dazai first realized:
Oda Sakunosuke understood him much more than he'd ever imagined right up to his very heart, almost to the center of his mind. Dazai didn't realize until then that someone had known him so well.
It's narratively acknowledged that Oda understands Dazai. Dazai knew Oda understood him, and even he ends up surprised when he perceives just how deeply. That's why he chooses to ask Oda what he should do, and why he chooses to keep saving people with the rest of the ADA despite not really believing in any capacity for redemption: because Oda told him to, and he trusts how deeply Oda understood him. Because he trusts Oda.
And another thing is that Oda does not tell Dazai to go out and save people because he believes Dazai needs to do that for his life to matter. Dazai is the one who believes his life doesn't matter, who searches for something that gives his life meaning, hoping it will show up one day if he just holds on a little bit longer; Oda is telling him that that magical something won't appear. You can't expect to turn your life around, for your hopelessness and despair to simply go away if you just find the right thing. There's no such right thing. What Oda is saying is that if Dazai is on the side of light, if he chooses to save people instead, then it will make the life that Dazai sees as so pointless and hollow "a little more beautiful." He's telling Dazai to help people not because he wants Dazai's life to have meaning - Dazai's life already has meaning to him - but because Dazai does not think Dazai's life has meaning, and Dazai wants Dazai's life to have meaning. And Oda wants to help him find a meaning that eases his hopelessness, even just a little. Even in his last moments, Oda wants to help Dazai, and even in his last moments, he chooses his words for Dazai's sake and not his own.
