its funny to think that whereas the average person might simp over atsushi becuz of how kind/polite/sweet he is, aku simps over atsushi when he’s being a bitch/ becuz he’s bitchy

[ r18 ]

canon divergence where akutagawa doesn't become a vampire, Years after the events of chapter 88. Do you think atsushi would forget his face? Do you think one day he will realize he can not remember akutagawas face anymore? Do you think one day he will realize all that's left of him is some blurry faraway memory of a smile and a coat?

another for sskk pirate au 🐙🫡

i just imagine them being sent on some island bc of dazai, wondering how they even ended up there in the first place lol

akutagawa being like: dazai-san said-

and atsushi: yeah, i don't care, this is sus

Imagine if when Akutagawa dies police take down his wanted posters because.. he's dead.

Kunikida throws away the polaroid of him because he won't have to warn any new ada members to stay away from him

So Atsushi just has to constantly draw Akutagawa so that he doesn't forget what he looks like

Atsushi has the inside of the closet covered in drawings of Akutagawa

He doodles him on reports

And he just doesn't stop because he can't forget what Akutagawa looks like

That's it. That's THAT look.

Like imagine atsushi as the pm transfer and he starts hanging out and actually making friends with the black lizard and aku gets jealous and doesnt want to admit it, so he goes about it like “stop fraternizing with my subordinates” and then yelling at the black lizard like “why are you buddy buddy with the weretiger” and gin is like my brother in christ i watched you two kiss over breakfast this morning, pack it up

i keep seeing it spelt two different ways and I'm not sure which one is right at this point so

some new police officer: detective nakajima! be careful, there is a murderer near you, please remain calm and make your way over here

akutagawa, pissed, summoning rashomon: where? who dares threaten jinko???

atsushi, awkwardly trying to calm the situation: he's talking about you, dumbass

akutagawa:

akutagawa: oh

Sorry for all the manga pages, but something that really can't translate as well in the anime is the constant switch between Atsushi and Akutagawa povs which is something I ADORE about this chapter. (Posting the pages joined together, so be mindful to read right to left). How you're following Atsushi and Tanizaki's helicopter so of course you'd expect it to be Atsushi when seeing an analogous aircraft in the next page, but it's not. The visual whiplash and utter brilliance of Akutagawa's black page by its own. How Akutagawa's steps follow immediately after Atsushi running, so that you'd believe it's his. How due the way the panels are positioned, their steps end up perfectly mirroring each other. How it all builds up to the perfect climax of their meeting and collision. It's just. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Atsushi and Akutagawa being so deeply intertwined they keep replacing each other and mixing like they were one person. This chapter is a storytelling masterpiece
