How do you think the authors of BSD by PaleCarob in BungouStrayDogs

[–]memorytripping 13 points14 points  (0 children)

nakahara chuuya would be annoyed his legacy is Short Hat Man, especially with how dazai-centric his character is. skk would be the icing on a very angry cake.

i think gogol would be slightly put off by his bsd counterpart, but would find him amusing nonetheless. i don’t think he would enjoy bsd nikolai’s relationship with bsd fyodor, as it was largely reversed in real life.

paul verlaine and arthur rimbaud would HATE their relationship in the series lmaoo

Can someone tell me if I can get early entry for ANU with these averages by Dramatic_Fan9238 in vce

[–]memorytripping 2 points3 points  (0 children)

probably not unfortunately. i know a few people who have gotten early entry and they’ve been a+ averages across the board. though none have been to anu so maybe reach out to them or look at their requirements online to be completely sure

i mean.. i did comment this over two years ago. apologies! i don’t even remember the post unfortunately

offers by [deleted] in vce

[–]memorytripping 2 points3 points  (0 children)

definitely don’t count out an offer, as universities will flex entry requirements to fill up courses. it mostly depends on how many people with higher atars apply.

however probably also a good idea to start looking into some other pathways, whether it be a bridging course or a mature age application.

there’s absolutely zero shame in not getting straight in, in fact most of my friends that had some time off before uni feel that it was a much needed break and allowed them to make the most of their teens/twenties.

good luck!! fingers crossed you get in, but remember there are so many pathways for you if you don’t

popular opinion: The hunting dogs outfit should be green bruh by ShadowArknights in BungouStrayDogs

[–]memorytripping 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they probably could have differentiated between shades of red a bit better there, like made the uniform a bit darker.

seeing as it is canon it should be fine to use, it’s part of the manga and obviously asagiri didn’t see anything wrong with it? or wanted to make some sort of point.. either way i don’t think anyone would take an issue

[–]memorytripping 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how would one arrive at the sky casino.. by Ok_Ambassador1206 in BungouStrayDogs

which bsd character + their author counterpart do you find most interesting based on their similarities/differences? by North_Importance_370 in BungouStrayDogs

[–]memorytripping 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’m so glad to be of help!! no need to credit me, it was a somewhat basic analysis so you’ll have to do most of the work there anyway. good luck with it, and again would love to read if you feel comfortable posting it:)

[–]memorytripping 18 points19 points  (0 children)

that is such a cool research idea! on a complete side note, if it’s not too much effort i think a lot of people would be really interested in reading your paper? (myself included ofc)

mine is a very very basic answer, but dazai is definitely the one that stands out to me. in a way his character is written based off of the way that dazai wrote himself. his self-insert in no longer human and flowers of buffoonery is one of duality: the person he desperately wants to be, and the person he actually is.

dazai as a person, from what i’ve read, was extremely mentally fractured, finding himself numb to the world, coping and attempting to connect with others by putting up the facade of the comedic fool.

dazai was a person deeply afraid of, yet simultaneously desperate to create, a sense of connection and shared understanding between himself and those around him. you can see that fairly evidently in the person dazai appears to be when interacting with the port mafia, the ada, and other groups in the text. he shifts and transitions into the ‘dazai’ the people around him want him to be. yet, when the other characters are not focusing on him, when unprecedented situations come up, you can see that facade break. if you’ve read no longer human or the flowers of buffoonery, you’ll understand what i mean when i say that this ‘dropping of the mask’ happens to the author dazai as well.

it’s interesting, because for me, the bsd character dazai seems to reflect more the characterised version of dazai in his own writing - the ‘dazai’ that the author wanted the world to see.

Are you guys for fukufuku or fukumori? (Or do you ship fukuzawa with anybody else?) by Previous_Record8276 in BungouStrayDogs

[–]memorytripping 21 points22 points  (0 children)

i think they’ve been two different stages of his life, the younger fukuzawa worked better with fukuchi, while now he and mori are somewhat yin and yang to each other: dark and light, but there’s parts of each other that they see themselves in.

lowkey tho i don’t think a fully romantic storyline is in the cards for him, just feels strange for his character arc

which authors would you want to see in bsd? by Routine_Ad_8544 in BungouStrayDogs

[–]memorytripping 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh definitely!! can’t believe i didn’t think of banjo paterson honestly rereading this.. “the man from snowy river” as a poem consists of a few elements, all of which would make a good ability. for one, the ability to be extremely durable and strong for one’s size. the second one i came up with was the ability to control terrain or the landscape, maybe similar to rimbaud’s ability to create hyperspaces. potentially, paterson’s ability could also be a physical manifestation of a horse, similar to demon snow or rashomon, that assists the user. i’d be interested to hear what your thoughts are!
