✨Ok I’m documenting all of my TAZ Balance reactions on this post now...✨

Ep. 7 So the jelly fish is the voidfish right? (did I spell that correctly?) Also wtf did Magnus just drink fish water?! Desgosting. ...Yeah it was the void fish. ...Poor Yohan (did I spell that correctly?) ... hang on!!! There’s no need to feed Magic Brian records to the voidfish. Also where are these records coming from..?

Ep. 8 I’m ready to meet Lucretia 💖💘💝 Oop I had no idea Lucretia was snooty. ... IS THAT REALLY WHAT DAVENPORT SOUNDS LIKE?!?! While I’m asking questions, is he ok..? ...Also I had no idea that Taako was an idiot until today. ...They’re talking to Lucretia, right???? ...maybe this campaign hits different cuz Fandalin (did I spell that correctly?) exploding set a weird tone. Taako is getting rly close to inventing the taco hella fast. ...I’m just gonna call her The Director until her name is revealed. Honestly thought it was cruel putting Taako in the arena but he thriving rn. Kinda worried about those ogres tho. Lup 🥺🥺🥺 ok just finished ep.8 so imma stop for awhile :)))))

Ep. 9 Why won’t Griffin give Travis a dog? :(((( ... Yo I know that Lup is in the Umbrustaff but that thing is MEAN. ...Aww Merel got a clip-on earring 🥺 r-Rail Splitter?🥺 Fantasy Costoso?! ...Oop is this when Griffin claimed the “Best Friend” title?

Ep. 10 “A swamp is not a beverage” -Griffin McElroy

Forgot to react to 11 & 12 all I have to say is 💖✨Ango 🥺✨

Ep. 13 rip Jenkins I guess.

Ep. 14 The scuttle bug 🥺🥺🥺. ...I kinda feel like the Bureau is testing them again.

Ep. 15 Cool they all have character voices now

Ep. 16 Does The Little Mermaid Disney movie exist in the balance universe..? ...so was that shriek/light thing the hunger?

Skipped a bunch of episodes but I like that Bane guy & RIP Trent. Also Hurley (did I spell that right..?) & Sloan are in love right? Also Travis & his fish 🥺🥺🥺

Ep.22 RIP Jerry(Barbra) & I have yet to see fan art of them burying a body. ...CLARG!!! 💖💖💖

Ep.28 So I missed a few updates but like wow Hurley & Sloan 🥺🥺🥺, I love Garyl, The Director the seemed pretty upset about those Red Robe ppl... IDK how to feel about Lucas. I guess his fear of the voidfish is natural cuz they don’t know anything about it... The voidfish has feelings & he’s friends with Magnus 🥺🥺🥺... YOHAN & THE VOIDFISHfishie??? HAVING A LITTLE JAM SESSION😭💀💖 W A I T AAAAaaaaaaAaaaa THIS IS THE SONG it’s so pretty & I have context for it now! I LOVE IT😭💖💘💝... That wasn’t a Yohan song?! It was a Voidfish original?!... Ouch I forgot about Captain Captain Bane :(... Again, poor Yohan. Is he depressed?... Poor Leon! Why do they keep handing him their coins, he’s so stressed.. OMIGOD is that rly the last of Leon..?... Wow Merle is canonically left-handed... THE JINGLE. The Fantasy Costco Jingle all produced & shit :’) 💖 (the music in this episode has been great) it seems like Griffin started producing more music for TAZ at some point during Petals to the Metal 🤔🤔🤔... Oh it’s the Flaming Poisoning Raging Sword of Doom 💖 I had no idea it was 60,000gp that seems like a fair price :)

Episode.29 Ok so this is when that candlenights gift exchange happens. I love that they got Angus on their team now. Lucretia finally got that name drop so I can stop calling her The Director. And now I know that Lucas is their scientist. This is T E A. Why would Griffin name one of the relics The Philosophery Stone? Ok so Griffin pronounces icor like “ick-er” but Travis says “eye-core”... So the suits protect them from transmutation magic huh?... I think I know how Merel lost his arm🤔. Carey!!!💖💖💖... The dwarfs name is Boyland💀💀💀. Wait I like Boyland he seems cool...

No offence, but I feel as if in this chapter, the author got tired of this entire ark in general, as the entire situation was solved ridiculously fast. Now, I don't really understand Japanese, so this may not be accurate. But from what I see, both highly powerful opponents were ridiculously quickly subdued, and somehow Fitzgerald decided to side with the Mafia and the ADA for no reason. We didn't even get to know Fyodor's ability yet, and he's already defeated.

I, too, was disappointed in this chapter, but after collecting my thoughts, I decided that it wasn’t a bad way of ending this arc, if this indeed is the end. Sure it may have looked abrupt, but it could have been worse… Or so I like to tell myself.

(Warning: I try my best to be unbiased and objective but this may read like a lot of whining. Only proceed if you’re fine with that.)

The good:Akutagawa’s promise to Atsushi; appearance of the rest of ADA and Port Mafia; Fitzgerald saving the day; Ango and his crew appearing; that not-so-subtle nod to Odasaku in the end

The “I don’t have much of a good or a bad opinion on this”:Shin soukoku new combo move; Chuuya still in the book

The bad:Quick resolution to the arc; implied lobotomy(!?); Dazai and his keikaku doori antics again; strange sense of déjà vu since they used practically same buildup as the last arc, but now it’s the remix version

First of all, I’ll just have to throw out my wildest (not really) theory out here: Fyodor is still the “final boss”. Come on, he gets the moniker “The Demon” and gets jailed off like that? No, no. It doesn’t make sense at all, at least to me. So my guess is that Agatha and the Order of the Clock Tower will swoop in to try and mess with the Agency, but when they’re on the verge of defeat, Fyodor steps in and uses this chance to strike ADA for himself. So uh Guild Arc 2.0. Or something along those lines. This could’ve been a test drive. Or he could have other Rats in Russia waiting for orders in case there’s a Phase II. Call me optimistic, but that’s what I would like to believe.

We jailbreak from Azkaban and invade Ministry of Magic now.

There really isn’t much to say about Dazai proving himself a formidable chessmaster again, other than I called it on an earlier ask. I just hope I’m not the only one tired of him being right all the damn time. No one can be that all-seeing…

People keep asking about Chuuya. Some were disappointed he only had one panel, some were rejoicing because it was “in-character” he stayed because he enjoyed fighting. But Ranpo kinda confirmed Chuuya stayed not because he wanted to beat people, but because it’s faster that way than using his brains? He’s not dumb, but come on, why would he prolong his stay if at that time his current concern was to protect Mori/kill off Fukuzawa? So yeah, his fate doesn’t really interest me, because I’ve always thought he was someone who is too popular to die… Not important, because sheesh let’s face it, Asagiri hasn’t really fleshed him out yet and doesn’t seem to have the intention of wanting to anytime soon. (Light novel soon please? Or a backstory in the movie if they wanna get dat yen lmao)

I’m more curious about how Ranpo got out, because the last time Poe trapped him, he was transported back with Yosano after solving the case. Was there some unwritten rule that a person can be selective with who he brings back with him? I hope we get clarifications on this, I’m a sucker when it comes to analyzing abilities and their corresponding limits and restrictions. It bugs me that in BSD there are a lot of additions and contradictions when it comes to abilities and that they come up only when it’s convenient to the plot. (For example, anyone can activate Doppo Poetry as long as they have a page with them. I don’t think it’s been mentioned before, but anyway it bothered me for some reason.)

Another big thing this chapter: Akutagawa’s promise to Atsushi. I got an ask talking specifically about this, so I’ll write a post about that later. For now, I can just say that it’s probably the best thing that’s happened to Akutagawa after the “You got stronger” shoulder pat. I’m not expecting him to turn over a new leaf, now full of hope and vigor for life, but he’s trying and he might come up with his own concluson to an unanswered question in his heart: “What is my life worth living for?”

Oh and Atsushi being able to rip out abilities… Imagine if Wolverine can No Longer Human enemies… I don’t like this at all, but what can you do, he’s the protagonist anyway so he gets a pass.So for now I’ll be bumping Atsushi to No. 2 of the most powerful known Ability users second only to Lovecraft. Granted, he had to team up with Akutagawa to come up with this Ultimate Dark Claw thing, but still. I guess I just like balance. In any case, one can argue that shin soukoku needs to grow stronger if they want to fend off the coming Europeans.

Food for thought: If Dazai can nullify abilities and Atsushi can also cancel out abilities with tiger claws, will they cause a singularity if they got into a serious fight?

Hmm.

Fitzgerald! He didn’t care about Fyodor getting his leftover assets actually, but remember, it was Fyodor who crashed Moby Dick. He also reasoned that while he has no interest in whatever he’s “left” behind, he didn’t want a rat using his leftover resources. In short, he did it to spite the Russian. So while I can respect that, I was still hoping that instead of Dazai coming up with the deal (how did he even know Fitz acquired Eyes of God?), it would be Katai who would call this to attention. After all, as someone who is knowledgeable about technology and electronics, he could have picked up information on Eckleburg. Of course, there’s a fair bit of chance that he heard about it from Ranpo or Atsushi (they were there when Alcott asked for help) but there was no explanation for how Dazai came to that knowledge. Ah. Well.

I mean, until now we don’t know how Natsume saved Katai.

Dazai then went on to say that Fitzgerald will declare war on them again so this + the yacht are the last friendly gestures they’re going to get from the Guild. Wonder what happens to Lucy and Poe now…

They totally could have asked for a Special Ability Permit in exchange for their services but okay Richard!

The victory afterparty. Kunikida and Katai were nowhere to be seen, so was Yosano. You know who else we haven’t seen? Hawthorne and Katsura. With Katsura, he could have been helped by Kunikida… who I believe is still mourning the deaths of the innocent children… They should really address that next chapter. Or whatever. As for our Winter Soldier, he’s either roaming around aimlessly or he was captured. Who knows? We don’t know how he got mind-controlled either (another Rat? or suffered a similar fate with Ivan…). But if his goal was to heal Mitchell, then Yosano is the perfect answer.

What else? Oh! Fuku wasn’t in the party too right? Meeting up with Natsume and Mori? I don’t know… As you can see, I come up with various scenarios and get them wrong 75% of the time. I was being dramatic too over Elise even though I knew she’d come back, but… This was fast. Glad to see her again though!

Oops. I rambled enough. Those were my thoughts, more or less. As I’ve said, it was a fairly standard BSD chapter. Disappointing, but still has a lot of loose ends which can be neatly tied up in upcoming chapters. I know a lot of people liked how this chapter ended, but… I’m not one of them, I’m afraid. I hope to be more enthusiastic about future chapters.
