bungou stray dogs - season 5 (📺 9/10)
they're all named after writers because they're going after a reality changing book that they have to write in [9/10]
finally caught up with the bsd anime!! i once tried watching this many years ago but only got past the mini arc with oda in the second season before dropping since i got distracted. i regret dropping it, but also i don't because now i get to experience it with the person i love the most and it was such a fun time!!
also i didn't think i'd get this attached to the cast. bsd has a large number of different characters, season 4 introduced us to the hunting dogs which piled on top of that roster... but the anime STILL manages to make each one shine in their own way and i love it sososo much. they're all very lovable in their own right.
except the lemon guy i hate him.
the big bad of this season is fukuchi, after discovering he's part of the decay of angels. that he's "kamui", the mastermind, after we're introduced to fyodor's friends. anyway, the final reveal that he did all the awful things he had to do to set up fukuzawa to be the guy to stop wars around the world and bring world peace. for fukuzawa to be the one to fulfill that wish of his. man, maybe it wasn't meant to be a twist but considering all the fucked up things fukuchi did it still came out to me as a pretty huge plot twist.
oh also fyodor dying makes me so sad he was hot and i liked him. but maybe he isn't dead? funnily enough apart from oda i don't think anyone in the main cast has ACTUALLY died in the anime. like they show them in pretty fucked up states but a few episodes later we see them well and that's kinda funny. for example, dazai being shot by chuuya. except dazai is dazai he's mr stray dog he can't die. which is why part of me just isn't TOO convinced it's the last we see of fyodor - but for now he is dead. rest in peace prettyboy...
OH WAIT I FORGOT ABOUT SIGMA LOL i'm SO sorry sigma but you literally had a talk with dazai about how touching fyodor literally kills you and you end up touching fyodor's hand like i know he's a convincing man but i was internally screaming. sigma noooooo that's how he gets youuuuu...
oh, and! i don't think fyodor's story can end yet without fully realizing his ability or having it revealed to us but that's just me!! i don't think it'd leave that unanswered!!
since i'm speaking abt the decay of angels already: i really like bram stoker :) i like his dynamic with aya. teen girl and her grandpa bestie oomfie... aya's backstory makes me real sad but it makes me happy that bram sees her as something of a daughter and a princess when in fact aya's real father thinks so lowly of her. their friendship makes me very very happy. one of the best moments of this season even :]
BUT YEAH AHHHH i am sooo sad it's over and that i'm all caught up with the anime!! i'm tempted to go pick up the manga or the light novels (beast looks soo good gosh i love swap/what if aus...) or aaa!! i dunno!! thinking about it makes me so giddy!! i should really catch up with blue lock soon so i free up my manga reading slot. sooooon...
i love bsd i love it so much i hope season 6 comes around soon. i have no clue who that dude that was teased at the end of s5 was but it's kinda funny that not even a day passes and aysushi and akutagawa are already fighting for their life again. i love these two. the boyfriends :) ... also the new guy looked like the roaring knight LOL but this is a bad dorky joke...
i love bsd so much man
