Gakuen Bungou Stray Dogs 2017 Character Profile and Q&A

i’m so excited for this new anime! the visuals look great and i can’t wait uwu

(i’m not an active part of bungou fandom, but i saw this on twitter and i decided to try my hand at it! also can someone please let this grandma know how to put this all under a read more, that would be much appreciated)

Our spring is still young and a little painful! The return of Bungou Seishun Graffitti!

Nakajima Atsushi A very normal high school student except for the fact that his white hair stands out. He became a member of the Armed School Council (as an assistant) due to certain reasons and helps solve fights at school. According to Dazai, he’s “a man of love and justice”.

Dazai Osamu A mysterious young man who’s tall and has disheveled hair. He’s the secretary of the Armed Student Council, but never does any paperwork. His hobby is committing suicide. Because he keeps going in and out of the hospital, his real age is unknown.

Oda Sakunosuke A student teacher who was assigned to the school. It seems like he’s acquainted with Dazai, but the details are a mystery. His usual breakfast is Canadian bacon and scrambled eggs. His favorite food is mixed curry.

Akutagawa Ryuunosuke Known as “Prince of the Infirmary”. He wears a frilly piece of cloth around his neck, but even he doesn’t know what it’s called. Since he coughs often, he’s frequently in the infirmary.

Nakahara Chuuya A delinquent transfer student who wears a black hat and knows about Dazai’s past. His hat was confiscated on the first day of his transfer because it was against the school’s dress code. Short.

Sakaguchi Ango A prefect who’s trademark is his glasses. He doubts if Atsushi’s white hair is natural. Known as “Professor[-like] Glasses”.

Question 1 - Please introduce yourself.

Atsushi: My name is Nakajima Atsushi. Other than the fact that my white hair stands out, I’m just another normal high schooler. I became a member of the Armed Student Council because of certain reasons. My favorite food is chazuke! Being alive is such a wonderful thing. It’s another new day after you sleep and wake up, and you get to eat!

... Um, my hair is actually natural?

Dazai: Introduce myself? A self introduction... what do you want to know about me? My name? It’s Dazai Osamu. I’m the secretary of the Armed Student Council, though paperwork is rather annoying. I spend my days looking for good ways to commit suicide. Since I’m always in and out of the hospital, I’ve had to repeat the school year for a number of times...

Hmm? What is it? So... you’re curious about my age. I’ll leave that to your imagination.

Akutagawa: I am Akutagawa. I am a mere high school student who learns at school and lives on the streets. I suffer from a respiratorial disease, so I unwittingly spend half of my time at the school infirmary. I know more about the arrangement of the medicine cabinet than the school nurse. I am greatly troubled by the fact that someone has started calling me by the nickname “Prince of the Infirmary”. I would like to ruthlessly get rid of useless hindrances and people who create needless havoc, but at this point in time there are no such people for me to get rid of at school.

... That frilly thing on my lapel? I know not of it’s name.

Chuuya: Aa? Why the hell do I have to introduce myself. It’s damn annoying.

... Ugh! Fine! I just gotta do it, right?! I’m Nakahara Chuuya. It pains me to say this, but I have something like an unfortunate acquintance with that asshole Dazai. That hat that I like... is at home right now. Like hell I’m letting the school confiscate it because it goes against the dress code!

My height...? If you treasure your life then you sure as hell better not say any more than that.

Ango: I’m Sakaguchi Ango from Class 3B. My height is 178cm, and my weight is 62kg. I am currently appointed as a school prefect. It seems like the recent transfer student has a very striking hair color. He claims that it’s natural, but whether or not that’s true...

Pardon me? ... Wait, this is a mole. It’s not dirt.

Odasaku: A self-introduction? My name’s Oda Sakunosuke. My friends call me Odasaku. I’ve been assigned to this school as a student teacher, and I teach Literature. I don’t think it’s anything particularly worth mentioning... Is this enough [for a self-introduction]? Ah right, I eat curry rice three times a week. It’s not that I like it specifically, it’s just a habit of mine. The curry rice that I eat has vegtables that would melt in your mouth and beef tendon that’s been stir-fried with garlic. It tastes light. I cook that with an excellent blend of spices, then mix it all up with a lot of rice. I eat it with eggs and sauce.

... Hmm? Dazai? Dazai is...

Aa, sorry looks like it’s time for the staff meeting. We’ll talk more about that later.

Question 2 - Tell us your favorite class.

Atsushi: My best subject is Physical Education! Today we had a joint-PE class with Dazai-san and the others, but Akutagawa had to leave for the infirmary in the middle, and Nakahara-san picked a fight with Dazai-san, then Dazai-san disappeared all of a sudden... It’s a pity it didn’t seem like a Physical Education class anymore. It’d be great if I could do sports properly next time...

My favorite subject is probably Literature. I don’t really understand some of the more difficult things, but I’m happy that I get to read a lot of books!

Dazai: I don’t particularly like class. I already know these things without having to be taught, so why do I have to go out of my way to be locked up in a small room just for that. It’s not even a good way to kill time. Especially Physical Education, since it’s still so cold during this time of the year that I’d rather sleep in the infirmary. But Akutagawa-kun’s there in the infirmary... and Yosano-sensei would find out that I’m skipping class. Kunikida-kun would start nagging at me too.

But during joint-PE class today I passed by Odasaku. That wasn’t bad.

Akutagawa: Due to the fact that I spend half of the school year in the infirmary, I lack enough information to form a proper opinion of my likes and dislikes of the classes. In general, I don’t dislike any of the classes. Though I’m rather stumped over the calculation of definite integrals [in mathematics], I’m satisfied with the classes overall.

I would like to join swimming classes once.

Chuuya: ... Class? Not interested. It’s just that I can’t stand to be worse than that asshole Dazai. Even though that jerk’s literally just a bandage attachment, his brains piss me off...

That’s why it’s not a matter of liking or disliking it. This is a showdown between me and Dazai. And if it’s a fight then there’s no way I’m falling behind. That’s all there is to it.

Ango: I don’t really understand the point of this question. To like or dislike it, I’ve never thought of class from that point of view. It’s because class is something you’re always supposed to attend. It’d be troublesome to constantly skip class the way Dazai does. Ah yes... to be good or bad at it, if it’s from that perspective then I understand. Anyone would have a tendency to score well or score badly in particular subjects.

Naturally I don’t have any subjects that I’m bad at.

Odasaku: My favorite class? I’ve never thought about it. I don’t decide to do things based on whether I like something or not. For most things in general at least. I’m a teacher, and since teaching is a job where it’s required for me to conduct classes, then that applies even more. If we’re just talking about likes and dislikes, then I don’t dislike my job as a teacher. Though I don’t look like it.

Speaking of, I passed by Dazai on campus today. It seemed like he’s actually attending class for once, though I wonder how long he intends on staying a high schooler.

Question 3 - Please tell us what you had for dinner tonight.

Atsushi: I had chicken chazuke today! Umeboshi topped with shredded nori, and also yesterday’s leftover chicken. When you take a bite of that together with hot soup and the little strips of konbu floating on top... that’s the best! Every day I get to eat, go to school, and work for the Armed Student Council even though it’s a little tough. I’ll work hard tomorrow as well!

Ah... um, I really have to go talk to Sakaguchi-san... He probably won’t believe me even if I tell him that my hair’s natural. I’ll go ask Dazai-san for advice...

Dazai: Hm.... How annoying. If Odasaku’s there then I’ll have to properly go to school, so I might as well go to sleep. But I’m hungry... But since we had Physical Education today I’m exhausted... And I hate having to boil water. I want my food to come to me...

Hey fooooood -- cooooooome --

Akutagawa: Western-style food. I designed a menu that considers nuitritional value and prioritizes nourishment to the respiratorial system. However, as I do not have a large appetite, I do not consume very much.

I hate mikans, but I occasionally crave some after meals.

Chuuya: Boiled spinach with mitsuba and miso soup. The ingredients [for the miso soup] are tofu and green onion. And grilled fish. And rice. Then I might as well make the side dishes for tomorrow’s bento. That fucking Dazai always steals from my bento...

I’ll definitely make him cry tomorrow.

Ango: Since I have to prepare the paperwork that’s due for submission, I don’t really have time to cook. When this happens I eat energy bars that I bought from the drugstore with other nuitritional suppliments...

Haa... I’d like to have a warm meal.

Also, Nakajima Atsushi-kun. Let’s have a proper talk tomorrow.

Odasaku: I was gonna go with curry but I’ve already had that yesterday. I made nikujaga today. I was thinking about things while making it so I made a bit too much. There are a lot of things to think about in this world, and whatever you think about wouldn’t necessarily come to a good conclusion. Since it can’t be helped, I brought the extras to Dazai’s place. He probably thought that preparing a meal was too troublesome and was rolling around on his bed anyway. Dazai’s been living next door for a while now. Hopefully he found the food before it got cold.

I’ll see you tomorrow then. Don’t be late because you stayed up all night.

if you thought akutagawa’s answers sound weird, it was deliberate because he is literally an old man and hey, it’s april fool’s. hope y’all enjoyed this and lmk if i messed up anything o/

すてきなメゾン - tofubeats feat. 玉城ティナ

メゾン means maison, which is french for ‘house/home’. who’d have thought my subpar french would come in handy for once, hah.

すてきなメゾン our wonderful home

はやくかえりたい　街はいつも渋滞 i want to go home already; the streets are always blocked by traffic 6時半すぎても　動かない距離 a distance that won’t budge even though it’s past six-thirty たいした出来事　毎日は起きない nothing significant ever happens each day こんな日々でも悪くないと思い始めた i’ve started to think that days like this aren’t that bad

見たことないよな i’ve never seen the sky after it rains 雨上がりの空　いつもの場所に立ってると when i stand at the usual place

はやくかえりたいのさ i just want to go home already 今日はかろやかな気分なので because i’m feeling cheerful today あしたのことはわからないけど i don’t know what’s going to happen tomorrow いつもここがあるから旅にでかけよう but this place will always be here, so let’s go on a trip すてきなメゾン our wonderful home

はやくかえりたい　今すぐに会いたい i want to go home already; i want to see you right now 3時間あったら　遊べちゃうけど if i had three hours to spare, i’d just fool around かわりばえなくても　毎日楽しいじゃない aren’t we still having fun every day even if we keep doing the same old things? どんな映画を借りるのかずっと悩んでた i’ve agonized for ages over what sort of movie to rent

部屋の中から sitting at my usual place 空を眺めてた　いつもの場所座ってるの i gaze at the sky from inside my room

はやくかえりたいのさ i just want to go home already カバンを置いて踊りたいので because i want to drop my bag and dance あしたのことはわからないけど i don’t know what’s going to happen tomorrow いつもここがあるから旅にでかけよう but this place will always be here, so let’s go on a trip すてきなメゾン our wonderful home

あの通り曲がれば明日に続いてる if you make a turn at that street, you can continue to tomorrow 帰り道　パレード　夢の中へ the way home, a parade, towards your dreams

Aoi: Thanks for today! The road we’re travelling on is awful. What the hell has the Minister of Transport been doing! I cn’t focus on reading.

Aoi: Cn’t (laugh). I meant can’t! The road’s bumpy so my fingers slipped.

Aoi: No! I’m being serious! Don’t you think that it’s all the smartphone’s fault for grouping highly sensitive functions like the flick input thing(?) and the touch panel together??

Aoi: Chiyu once said to me a long time ago, "you don't use flick input? seriously?", while looking like a smug piece of shit. That guy's got a cute side too, doesn't he? That's why I'm specially telling you all this. I'm currently reading something with a school setting called "Teiichi no Kuni". It's been really interesting since I first started reading.

Miyavi: The world's a big place. And just as it's huge, it's also small. The more you visit different places, and the more you meet different people, it'll make you feel how small yet privileged you are. The journey goes on. Discover a new self. Challenge the future. No matter how old you get, you don't want to forget this feeling. But yeah, I'm just jetlagged and wanted to do something about it. Good morning.
