Woman In Witness Protection (1997)
Woman In Witness Protection by #JuzoItami starring #NobukoMiyamoto, "a culmination of all the many unforgettable characters she enacted in Itami’s oeuvre and is a testament to her remarkable talent."
JUZO ITAMI Bil’s rating (out of 5): BBB.5 Original Title: Marutai no onna Japan, 1997. Itami Productions. Screenplay by Jûzô Itami. Cinematography by Yonezô Maeda. Music by Toshiyuki Honda.

The last film by the great Juzo Itami before his mysterious suicide (or murder, depending on who you ask) is this terrific comedy that takes one more aim at an institution that…

Hello, can I ask from which author (BSD characters) have you read the books? Hope my question is not confusing.
Also, can I ask your top fav characters and fav moments from BSD?
Thanks 🌻
Hello, thank you so much for sending in this ask! Not confusing at all!!
I have read only a few books from the authors featured in Bungou Stray Dogs, but I plan to read more! I love reading classic literature — I find their verbiage fun to read, even if it may sometimes be a little hard to get through. I also like to read the classics written by the authors in BSD, in case it gives me any insight on what Asagiri was thinking when he made these characters.
I’ll list them author first, then the book I’ve read by them! Most are the ones that their ability is named from (generally speaking, the ability name is based off of their most popular book). Any books that I’ve read a few pages of, or seen a related film of, will be listed separately in an “Extra” section.
Dazai Osamu — No Longer Human (translated by Donald Keene)
Akutagawa Ryūnosuke — Rashōmon (translated by Takashi Kojima)
Edgar Allan Poe — The Fall of the House of Usher ; The Tell-Tale Heart ; Annabel Lee ; The Raven ; The Masque of the Red Death ; The Oval Portrait ; The Oblong Box
Mark Twain — The Celebrated Jumping Frogs of Calaveras County
Fyodor Dostoevsky — Crime and Punishment (translated by Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky)
Agatha Christie — And Then There Were None
Adam Frankenstein — Frankenstein (The actual author is Mary Shelley. I don’t know why Asagiri chose to name his character this way.)
Extra: Excerpts from Mark Twain’s Life on the Mississippi A small bit from Edgar Allan Poe’s The Balloon Hoax A chapter from Francis Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby, of which I’ve also seen The Great Gatsby (2013) movie adaptation.
TBR (Only those featured in BSD): Francis Scott Fitzgerald — The Great Gatsby Nathaniel Hawthorne — The Scarlet Letter
As for my favorite characters, I can say that my absolute favorite in BSD is Akutagawa Ryuunosuke, but my second favorite, who just BARELY doesn't make it to first, is Edogawa Ranpo. Interestingly, I used to be pretty neutral about Akutagawa when I first watched and read BSD. Then I watched Wan!, which made me realize just how funny Akutagawa really is, and began my affinity for the character. Beast is the light novel that actually propelled Akutagawa to be my favorite, taking over Ranpo by a very small margin. With concerns to Ranpo, he just carries the series on his back, and I mean it. He must have extreme back pain. I also like that his ability is actually super autism. I find him funny, relatable, and complex. I enjoy every scene he's in.
Other favorites of mine: Nakajima Atsushi, who I'd say is my third favorite. I love his complexity, his development, his backstory, his design, everything. Yosano Akiko, who has my favorite backstory in all of BSD. Also a banger character design. F. Scott Fitzgerald, and I really can't explain this. I just. Yeah. He's so painfully American and I find that incredibly enjoyable. Of course, there are more characters I really love! But these are my favorites!!
EDIT: Hello, I forgot to answer the second portion! My bad!
My favorite moment in all of Bungou Stray Dogs official media is the cafe/sugar scene between Akutagawa and Atsushi from Bungou Stray Dogs: Beast. It's the only hint we have towards the idea that Akutagawa and Atsushi have the potential to be true friends. They can get along. If it weren't DAZAI. Always that man's fault.
Nothing really comes close to that for me. There are others I like, such as the Dazai-Oda bar scene from Beast as well, or Akutagawa's death sequence. Another amazing one is the Tachihara's elder brother's death scene, where Yosano comes across the thousands of scratched "corrects" and the hanging body of the man she's saved countless times. Truly gut-wrenching. This animanga is filled with touching and phenomenal scenes, and if you wanted a full list of all that I have enjoyed, I think we'd be here all day.

Une plante tropicale prometteuse originaire de Chine Des scientifiques japonais ont révélé des résultats « remarquables », révélant que des extraits de l'espèce « supplément de manière significative » les augmentations du poids corporel et des tissus adipeux. Mallotus furetianus, également connu sous le nom de MFE, pourrait devenir un nouvel ingrédient alimentaire anti-obésité prometteur. Originaire de l'île de Hainan en Chine, cette plante intrigue les chercheurs en raison de son potentiel à combattre l'obésité. Des effets anti-obésité observés chez les souris modèles Bien qu'une étude précédente ait examiné son efficacité dans la prévention de la stéatose hépatique, les effets anti-obésité et les mécanismes de la MFE restaient flous. L'obésité est un problème de santé majeur, avec des conséquences graves telles que le diabète et l'hypertension artérielle. Les scientifiques se sont penchés sur les propriétés anti-obésité de l'extrait de MFE en menant une étude sur des souris modèles d'obésité. Les résultats ont montré que le traitement à la MFE réduisait significativement le gain de poids et les tissus adipeux. Un mécanisme prometteur pour l'inhibition de la synthèse des graisses Le professeur Akiko Kojima, de l'Université métropolitaine d'Osaka, explique que l'extrait de Mallotus furetianus semble inhiber la synthèse des graisses en agissant sur les facteurs de transcription impliqués dans la différenciation des adipocytes. Ces résultats suggèrent que cette plante pourrait non seulement être liée à des effets anti-obésité, mais aussi devenir un nouvel ingrédient alimentaire potentiel pour lutter contre ce problème mondial. Cette découverte ouvre la voie à une compréhension plus profonde du mécanisme impliqué.
