Fandom: JJK Ship: Chuuya/Dazai Character: Nanami
AIGHT LET’S GET INTO IT
001 | Jujutsu Kaisen
Favorite character: SON OF MY HEART AND BOY OF MY LIFE YUJI ITADORI
Least Favorite character: sukuna >:c
5 Favorite ships (canon or non-canon): yuta/rika, satosugu, nobamaki, um. uh. i don’t know if i have five. *sweats.*
Character I find most attractive: i’ve said it before and i’ll say it again: christian gray wants what kento nanami has
Character I would marry: i’ve said it before and i’ll say it again: kento nanami is the dilf of all time and if you disagree you are playing yourself
Character I would be best friends with: my irl best friend is essentially a carbon copy of nobara kugisaki, so definitely nobara 😊
A random thought: cursed speech is the coolest fucking curse technique and i go feral every time inumaki gets to use it
An unpopular opinion: my most unpopular opinion is that i’m not all that into fushidori but that is entirely a personal thing and not at all, like, a condemnation of the ship at all, if that makes sense??? like i think it’s a good ship that the text 100% supports, i’m not saying i don’t like it bc it feels ooc or anything, bc it absolutely doesn’t, and there’s all kinds of Symbolism that backs it up, too. i just typically don’t really tend to ship my faves bc you know. hashtag just aro/ace things.
My Canon OTP: YUTA/RIKA MY BELOVED
My Non-canon OTP: SATOSUGU MY BELOVED
Most Badass Character: nobara “let’s play a game of chicken” kugisaki
Most Epic Villain: there are a lot of good ones in jjk tbh but i think it’s gotta be sukuna for me. what the fuck are you planning you bastard.
Pairing I am not a fan of: uh damn well while i’m raining on people’s parades, lol, i’m also not really into yuta/inumaki. again, not because i think it doesn’t make sense or anything!! it super does!!! but also yuta is in deep, pure, everlasting love with his monster gf and i just can’t bring myself to care as much about yuta/inumaki as i care about yuta/rika.
Character I feel the writers screwed up (in one way or another): look into my eyes. gege akutami has never done anything wrong in their life, ever. (at least not in terms of characterization, lol.)
Favourite Friendship: i cry noble tears of joy every time the main trio interacts in any capacity.
Character I most identify with: he’s a much better person than i am and way like cooler and stronger, etc, but i do identify with yuji bc he is the same brand of stupid as me and it’s nice to see someone with terminal dumb bitch disease represented in media.
Character I wish I could be: Bakery Girl, iykyk
002 | Soukoku
When I started shipping them: i think i started like shipping-shipping them when i watched dead apple.
My thoughts: did you really think you were going to give me a character who has a power that could kill him and another character who is the only one who can keep that power from killing him and i wasn’t going to end up fully, madly and deeply invested in them?
What makes me happy about them: i’m a chuuya simp so this is a chuuya-centric answer, and i talked to you about this already, but i always love it when a character who has the huge, op powers gets to feel protected by someone else. chuuya is the best martial artist in the port mafia, he can manipulate gravity, and he’s able to go sicko mode via corruption; he’s a fucking atom bomb. but because dazai can nullify his powers and pull him back from the brink of literal self-destruction, chuuya doesn’t have to be the protector in their relationship; he gets to trust that someone is going to catch him when he falls.
What makes me sad about them: moving on from the port mafia and joining the armed detective agency is clearly what’s best for dazai and he absolutely seems happier and like he has more of a purpose with them, but it makes me sad that him leaving also kind of sets chuuya adrift. chuuya has been dazai’s partner for as long as he’s been a member of the port mafia, since he was 15 years old; he essentially left his previous gang, who looked up to him and trusted him, to partner up with dazai. so then when dazai just leaves and breaks contact one day i’m sure it not only hurts like hell, but also makes chuuya question whether dazai ever cared as much for him as he did for dazai and what he’s even doing with the port mafia in the first place.
Things done in fanfic that annoys me: i haven’t yet read enough fanfic for things to start bothering me.
Things I look for in fanfic: major character death and grief/mourning are literally the tags i search, lol. i am who i am.
My wishlist: if i can be frank, at this point in the narrative i just want these guys to have some hatesex, lol. The One Where Dazai Hooks Up With His Ex.
Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: i think ultimately kunikida is probably a healthier match for dazai, lol. chuuya is my fave so, again, having a hard time shipping him with anyone else. i feel like he’s the kind of person who really wouldn’t be interested in romance unless it was as deep and encompassing as what he has with dazai, and it doesn’t seem like anyone else in the canon so far comes anywhere close to that.
My happily ever after for them: i guess ideally chuuya would eventually either 1.) become the new boss of the port mafia and form some sort of alliance with the armed detective agency or 2.) he’d join the ada. either way he and dazai would Talk It Out and reach an Understanding, and even if they didn’t end up back together romantically they’d be like back on good terms with each other, and chuuya would get to feel protected again and dazai would get to feel Challenged.
003 | Nanami
How I feel about this character: I’m Aro/Ace But When I Tell You I Would Fully Become A 1950s Housewife For This Man,,,,,
Any/all the people I ship romantically with this character: you are probably getting tired of hearing this lmao 😅 but i don’t….. really ship him……. with anyone………. (except, of course, for me). i don’t hate nanami/higuruma but the canon compliant bitch inside of me can’t really get fully behind it. i could see him and bakery girl being cute if they decided to flesh her out and go that route 🙂
My favorite non-romantic relationship for this character: his mentorship of yuji 🥺
My unpopular opinion about this character: i feel like nanami is the kind of character that’s easy to kind of fall into the shorthand of characterizing as Stuffy and Boring and Proper, etc, but he honestly isn’t any of those things? he’s, like… quiet, lol. a little blunt, sure. massively depressed. but his entire philosophy about corporate jobs is that you should milk them for all that they’re worth without working a second you’re not being paid for; he has a lot of the same issues with the jujutsu world that gojo does and he helps train yuji while he’s Supposed To Be Dead, so it’s not as if he’s some kind of strict rule-follower or anything; he’s a foodie and he loves bread 🥺; he had an emo haircut as a teen so you canNOT convince me his taste in music isn’t fire.
One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon: i wish we had gotten to see him interact more with geto, especially post-[spoiler].
Favorite friendship for this character: it’s a tie between haibara and gojo; i think they’re both very important people for him to have had in his life in different ways.
My crossover ship: he could easily be swapped out for kunikida in bsd, i doubt dazai would even notice.
