    Summary

    In this reflection from Natsume’s perspective, he delves into Dazai's original plan to make Akutagawa the successor of the SKK legacy. Despite Dazai's harsh and unconventional training methods, which aimed to mold Akutagawa into a powerful figure, the plan faltered as Akutagawa’s flaws and inner conflicts became apparent. The unexpected success of Akutagawa during the Cannibalism arc, where he contributed key strategy alongside Atsushi, shows that Dazai’s expectations for him were not entirely in vain. However, if Akutagawa dies, Atsushi would inevitably take on the role Dazai envisioned, blending strength and intellect in a way that Akutagawa, tragically, could not. The story explores the fragile nature of Dazai’s plans and the shifting legacy of the Port Mafia.

    Summary

    Just like that, Atsushi tugs him forward. Akutagawa stumbles, his body as stiff as a board, and Atsushi's movements are clumsy, but they dance.

    In the midst of words unspoken and feelings undefined, Akutagawa and Atsushi dance under the empty night sky, filling it up with stars of their own.

    On the meaningless rooftop that Akutagawa never cared about, he forms an unforgettable memory.

    or, akutagawa and his insignificant high school experience. except it isn't

    Summary

    In the Port Mafia’s grim training room, Dazai Osamu subjects Akutagawa Ryuunosuke to a brutal regimen that escalates from intense physical training to severe emotional and psychological abuse. Dazai taunts and mocks Akutagawa, pushing him to his breaking point while delivering painful counterattacks designed to shatter his spirit. The room, marked by the sight of blood and sweat, reflects the viciousness of the session.

    Chuuya Nakahara intervenes, his anger palpable as he confronts Dazai, accusing him of crossing the line from training to torture. The confrontation reveals the deep-seated tensions between the two, with Dazai’s façade of detachment giving way to irritation as Chuuya’s protective instincts take center stage. As Chuuya helps a battered Akutagawa out of the room, Dazai’s frustration and resentment simmer, highlighting the ongoing struggle within the Port Mafia to reconcile power and compassion.

    Summary

    Dazai watched the boy in front of him sway as he tried pushing himself onto his feet, head drooping as he struggled.
    He’s so young.
    I was young too.

    Summary

    In the dim, decaying confines of an abandoned warehouse, Ryuunosuke Akutagawa’s mission ends in catastrophe. Unable to control his rage, he kills a target he was meant to torture for crucial information. As he returns, expecting reprimand, Dazai Osamu's cold fury becomes apparent. Dazai’s psychological torment is relentless, degrading Akutagawa’s sense of self-worth and demanding he degrades himself further. The cruelty escalates to physical violence, with Dazai’s calculated brutality leaving Akutagawa battered and broken.

    When Gin arrives to find Akutagawa gravely injured, Dazai deceitfully frames the injuries as a result of a rough mission, manipulating Gin’s trust. Despite his suspicions, Gin cares for Akutagawa, who, still under Dazai’s manipulation, lies about the true nature of his suffering. The chapter ends with a somber contrast between Gin's genuine concern and the dark reality of Akutagawa’s torment, encapsulating a chilling tale of betrayal and psychological abuse.

    Summary

    I was humiliated, but I couldn’t control a single thing that left my mouth. I sat on the floor like a dog. Clinging onto her and calling out for my ‘mama’ like a child. I need her to save me.
    Save me.
    Save me.
    Save me.

    Maybe one day my words won’t fall on deaf ears.

    Summary

    “Are you the ability user who can cut through anything?”
    “That would be me, yes.”
    “Kill me, cut down my ability.”
    There was nothing but silence then, though, only for a few seconds.

    “No.”
    Silence once more, however, far more prolonged. What was a few minutes felt like a millennia for the Dog of the Port Mafia. He feels more like he’s inside a cage of raw silence. Ironic.
    “Fine. But I want to work under you.”

    OR

    Akutagawa gets promoted to executive 2 years after Dazai leaves, he’s not interested in training anyone, he’s in a lot of (physical) pain, he has a whole unit to lead and control in the Port Mafia and some 14 year old comes into his life requesting that he kills her.

    Traumadumping ensues

    Summary

    “Even after all this time, you still look the same when you’re sick,” Gin says quietly to herself, brushing back his hair, remembering his thirteen-year-old face illuminated by the candle she managed to find at the time. At least they’re safe here. At least she can properly take care of him, now.

    or; Gin takes care of Ryuunosuke as he comes down with an illness that only progressively gets worse. She reflects back on the time they were in a similar situation just six years ago.

    Summary

    The shrill sound of a scream pierced through the veil of her reverie, a discordant note in the symphony of the city. Before she could react, pain exploded through her body like a thunderclap, the screech of tires drowning out her cries as she was engulfed by the deafening roar of a truck's impact.

    Summary

    "I love you.”

    Akutagawa freezes, and for a moment, everything is still.

    His back is still turned to Tachihara, unmoving as silence fills the air. It's so quiet that Akutagawa can even hear his heart. Beating right in his chest.

    But what use is a heart like his? So angry, and full of hate?

    What does a heart like his have anything to offer?

    Tachiharas heart is beating faster and faster, he expects something… anger, disgust, hatred… anything to signify something.

    "You must've hit your head," Akutagawa finally says, but it's not what he wants to say.

    It's far from it actually, but there's no room in his heart for a thing like this.

    That's what he tells himself, at least.

    Summary

    Gin can take care of herself. Akutagawa knows it. It's he who needs the hand holding of his mentor, his praise only a step away should Akutagawa possess the ability to walk on his own.

    He has no such skill.

    Just when Akutagawa has deluded himself into thinking himself worthy, he finds himself bleeding out once more, the unmistakable feeling of dying serving as no more than a chilling reminder of his inescapable prison of failure.

    Think of me when you're out, when you're out there.
    I'll beg you nice from my knees.
    And when the world treats you way too fairly;
    Well, it's a shame I'm a dream.
    All I wanted was you...

    Summary

    Atsushi was trying to live his life as normal as possible avoiding being captured by the government that eliminates supernatural entities.

    Akutagawa didn’t make much attempt to hide who he was, living through time as the world changed around him.

    The two boys will learn that perhaps it’s not impossible for humans to care for the well-beings of the supernatural, and if they could work together to save each other from their oppressors they could make a difference with the help of a suicidal man and his werebeast partner.
