#bungou stray dogs abilities

[sorcerersandskillusers]

Just rewatched The Dead Apple and noticed something about Fyodors ability.

Every other ability that doesn't have a manifestation and is brought to life by the fog follows these 2 rules.

They form a copy of their wielder with a blank face with glowing eye's, and they have their Gem weak spot on their foreheads.

The only abilities that don't follow these rules are ones that have a manifestation and even then the humanoid ones still keep the gem on their forehead.

But then theres Fyodor, his ability not only manifests in a different outfit, but with a fully detailed face.

And his gem is on his hand, which is completely different to every other ability.

So Fyodors ability has not only completely ignored the drive to kill its wielder, but also does not manifest like any other, It breaks all three rules of the fog. The only other abilities to have faces are Elise and the Tiger, both of which have physical forms with faces outside of the fog. does this mean that Fyodors ability can actually manifest as a physical person outside the fog too? is that how he's communicating with the outside world from the prison? it opens up so many questions.

But there is one other ability that also breaks all three of these rules; Atsushi's

The tiger has its gem on the back of its neck, it also has a full face and at one point it attacks rashomon instead of Atsushi which is the only other time an ability deviates from attacking its user.

We know Fyodor was the one who told Shibusawa about Atsushi, and that he somehow knew his ability was special even before it had manifested. there is some connection between them that hasn't yet been explored and I'm really excited to see where it goes.

BSD is one show where details like this are rarely just coincidences, and considering how much mystery there is around Fyodors ability I'm sure that there is way more going on then it would first seem.

Analysing this gave me a new theory about Fyodors ability but I'll put that in a separate post, for now please tag me if this post inspired any new theories for you, I'd love to here them

recently read the stormbringer lightnovel and "walking in on chuuya spinning dazai around in a warehouse" was a mental image i just couldn't get out of my head. So i had to draw it :')

(the fit isn't accurate but whatever :)))) )

I’m just picturing Ranpo trying to cheer Dazai up (and missing the mark by a mile) by being like “at least he’s just as stupid as you are!” or something like that idk. Maybe trying to tell him “it’s okay, Chuuya still has no idea how you feel about him! None whatsoever! The possibility isn’t even on his radar!”

Alskdjfjf I love these, thank you anon — and uh, this kinda sent me off in A Direction while I was mulling it over, but it’s still sorta the same vibe —

(There will, as you can probably tell, be another part of this!)

i will personally never forgive yenpress for botching the translation because now it's impossible to find chuuya / dazai / yosano takes that do not start with "first off, mori sucks and he's a predator"

mori is the don of the port mafia and has committed several war crimes, but not those ones. yell at him and hate him for the severe psychological manipulation of yosano & for dazai joining the mafia n being his witness. you know, the things he did.

#cherri.txt #please please i just want to see chuuya takes that do not have to do with 'mori is the greatest evil in the bsd 'verse' #because he is Not. #and i genuinely do not think that asagiri would write a well-respected author who had a close relationship w irl yosano as a #child predator. that'd be so disrespectful and these are influential authors. #and i think that mori's character is Meant to be confusing and a little uncomfortable bc guess #what book got banned because of what it explored? vita sexualis! the book that mori's ability is named after! #hate my dude but for What He Did #bsd #bungou stray dogs #mori ougai

Since it is already established that Atsushi's ability, Byakko, can negate any of his wounds. Does this mean that if Atsushi dyes his hair a colour that Byakko does not like, the tiger can simply uno reverse Atsushi's decision?

This is a burning question I have

I have THREE bsd predictions and i feel as though they will all come true. if they do i am the bsd messiah.

Stormbringer will be animated into a movie between season 5-6 (dead apple style) so the manga can get ahead (I AM NOT READY)

Fyodor is 100% alive. We don’t know his ability yet and the Jesus line before he died was a telltale sign.

Bones will fuck up Stormbringer panels. Specifically the panel of Dazai smiling on the stairs as Chuuya goes to fight the equivalent of Godzilla. that one in particular. they absolutely will fuck it up.

See you bitches in 1-2 years when everything I say is correct 🏂🏂

#i don’t ask to be correct I just am #also hot take but i kinda wish fyodor did die this season #like figure out his ability and everything so we know for sure he’s dead #but whatever #at least stormbringer soukoku will be animated soon #bsd #bungou stray dogs #bungo stray dogs #bsd stormbringer #bungou stray dogs stormbringer #bsd fyodor #fyodor dostoevsky #dazai osamu #bsd dazai #chuuya nakahara #bsd chuuya #soukoku #skk #follow for more deranged screaming abt this show (esp soukoku BOY do I have thoughts)

BSD abilities and how they connect to character trauma

This was inspired by this post: here from @noose-lion which you should defiantly read! TL:DR Op thinks abilities originate from trauma and gave some great examples and evidence.

I wanted to catalogue all the abilities we know that have clear connection to character trauma.

Atsushi: He was tortured from a incredibly young age, constantly abused by the orphanage director, Shibusawa and even his own parents. Of cousre a scared helpless child, who spent his life being hurt by people much strong then him would wish he could be a big strong tiger, who could never be hurt again (hence the bullet proof fur and regeneration).

Kunikida: An Idealist who wished to bring his visions of the world into reality gained the power to bring his writings to life by literally manifesting his Ideals from his book.

Akutagwa: A child who grew up in the chaos of the slums, constantly being hurt or attacked gained the power to defend himself and his friends with his only possession the clothes on his back. He gained a sword to kill anyone who he wanted and a shield to defend himself from any physical threat.

Fukuzawa: After seeing the pain an uncontrollable gift could cause to someone (I know Ranpo wasn't really gifted but the principle is the same). he gained the power to help other people control their own gifts and let them reach their full potential.

Kenji: A little boy who after having his best friend stolen from him by mother nature, gained the unimaginable power of a natural disaster himself, and used it to save his village.

Gogol: A man who so desperately craved true freedom, gained the ability to go anywhere he wished.

Tachihara: A boy who only wished to live up to his brothers legacy gained the same powers as him.

Fitzgerald: Someone who craves power and strength more then anything, was able to turn his biggest asset (his money) into physical strength.

Q: a child who must have been abused a lot and instead of just wishing to defend themselves they wanted to hurt people back as bad as possible, and make them feel out of control

I'm sure their are some I missed but to me these are the characters where its clear what lead to them getting their abilities.

There are also a few characters whose abilities don't fit the mold/aren't their own:

Chuuya: whose original power is still unclear

Verlain: who was a skill lifeform

Kyoka: who was given her power by her mother

Sigma: who was created by the book

All in all I think that the idea of abilities being born from trauma and desire but rarely actually fixing the underlying problem and often making things worse is an incredibly cool idea and fits the message of bsd perfectly.

Power does not solve your problem, the support of others is where true value lies.

We don't talk enough about how Fukuzawa miraculously raised Yosano to be a strong, confident, happy woman despite adopting the single most traumatized girl Yokohama has ever seen (which is saying A LOT)

#Like??? How??? Where would you even start???????? #Fukuzawa's true ability is taking dysfunctional traumatized children and miraculously making them grow into somewhat healthy adults #yukichi fukuzawa #akiko yosano #bsd #bungou stray dogs #mine #q. #06/02/23
