This series sure is a lot of fun. Now we've got F. Scott Fitzgerald and L.M. Montgomery playing villains and it's interesting to see which powers they have in relation to their real-life counterparts.

One thing that I actually kind of like is how each volume ends seriously and usually with some sort of cliffhanger. That really makes me want to keep reading.

*This volume covers chapter 13-16.

1. I LOVE THIS VOLUME!!! We get to know more about Miyazawa Kenji, an earnest boy from countryside who possesses a superhuman strength. He is really cute and naive, and I love how he always spreads positive vibes to everyone.

Be not defeated by the rain. Nor by the wind. Bested not by lead pipe, nor knife, nor metal bat, be strong in body. Unfettered by desire, nor roused to anger, always with a quite smile. Such a person...
-This part is taken from the original poem by the real life Miyazawa Kenji, and some parts are added to fit the character in the manga.

2. A chapter in this manga is written in Higuchi's pov, and I teared up while reading it. As a Port Mafia member who does not possess any supernatural ability, it is hard for her to make any achievement and contribute to the organisation. Yet, she stays alongside Akutagawa and is willing to sacrifice her life for her senpai. What a strong woman!
P/s: Akutagawa, please treat her nicely, okay?

"Have you ever considered if this is a suitable profession for you?"

3. New arc is here!!! The Guild is coming to attack the Armed Detective Agency after the president refuses a proposal from the Guild leader. Atsushi faces a new character that resents him because of 'something'. As the main character, Atsushi's development is progressing in a smooth and reasonable way. When something difficult happens, he wants to run away and ask for help from others as he feels it is impossible to solve it by himself. However, this time he has no choice but to think of the strategy and do it on his own. Will he succeed? How did he get the motivation to do it himself? This volume will show you something, and someone new!!

*When something bad happens, Atsushi always rely on Dazai to solve it. He'll say something like, "I need to ask Dazai about this," or "Dazai is the person that can solve this." The reason is possibly because Dazai is the one who saved Atsushi from his poor condition before joining the agency, and Dazai has shown his intelligent side. These made Atsushi really looks up to him.

"No matter how difficult a battle gets, there is always a logically optimal solution. Particularly in your most desperate hour. Make sure you don't forget that."

« It’ll be quite fun to watch your face of despair when you get caught by Anne ».

La puntuación de este tomo baja porque la primera mitad me ha parecido super tediosa. Esto se ha debido a que no soporto, al menos por el momento cierto personaje de la Port Mafia. Sus acciones no se basan sino en agradar a otra persona y no piensa por ella misma. Para mí no tiene personalidad y me da que estar con esa persona le va a hacer más daño…espero que en los siguientes volúmenes mejore su personaje porque si no ya puede estar muriendose.

« You…are wrong about one thing. I’m not strong, not am I popular. It’s fair to say I bring calamity upon others simply by being alive. So I understand your envy and hatred towards others.

To tell the truth I dont wan’t you to fail your mision ! I don't want you to loose your home. But…I’m too weak and too inexperienced so I can’t think of any other way ! »


Por otro lado, la segunda mitad del manga… eso ya es otra cosa con la aparición de cierto personaje: su habilidad y batalla me ha parecido sublimes. Me ha encantado, además siento que puede ser un personaje con bastante juego.

« No matter how difficult the situation is, there is always theoretically a suitable solution. The more you feel like giving up amidst the confusion, the more you mustn’t forget that ».

Por último, pero no menos importante, el final del manga ha sido espectacular con la aparición de “ese” señor. Qué grande.

«Hey, why is it you? Why not me?».

Explosive, thrilling and breath-taking

Bungou Stray Dogs has blown itself away with this volume. We have yet more characters, characters that we can understand to a point, more drama, action and excitement which never gets boring. We learn yet more about more members of the Armed Detective Agency, we learn more about the Port Mafia. We meet another group.

So much happens in this volume of BSDogs and yet, it seems like barely anything in all the excitement, dragging us along and making us hand on every frame of the book. The artwork in this volume seems to have reached it's peak, and some truly beautiful character and ability designs are give to us, artwork that makes my breath hitch and a plot line to go with them.

The plot line itself is kept the same, with an insert chapter of another character, more taken away from the current plot line we're following throughout the manga.

Atsushi has grown in character development, mostly because of Kyouka, however, we see a bit of his weakness sliding back through here, which was a disappoint to me.

However, this amazing manga still gets a solid 5/5 starts for me, no matter what.

The pacing is a lot better than the previous book and the stories feel a lot less like filter, good job.

PS: but please don't you ever get me started with all the giggling and fangirl's exclaiming I have done for all these Bungō Stray Dogs fanfics (Edagawa Rampo/Edgar Allan Poe is a thing, mind you. XD)

I am kind of wondering what I am missing right now with this series. There are so many characters, it is so hard to keep track of the people. There is not enough comedy in in this series for me I think as well. I have a few more from the library but I am thinking I won't read them right now...

Volume yang ini lebih intriguing dengan banyak kemunculan banyak karakter penulis-penulis barat dengan kuasa-kuasa mereka. Dazai agak kurang menonjol dalam volume ini. Penekanan diberikan kepada watak-watak antagonis which is awesome. Excited nak baca volume seterusnya!

Este volumen se me fue en un abrir y cerrar de ojos. A pesar de que los dos primeros capítulos parecen fillers, en realidad sirven para conocer mejor a Kenji y Higuchi (y por extensión, la relación que ésta tiene con Akutagawa ["notice me, senpai" anyone?] y la forma en que trabaja internamente la Port Mafia). Por otro lado, por fin hacen su primer movimiento Fitgerald y los miembros de The Guild, yay.

I love Atsushi discovering Ken's skill. It never gets old. Ken is such a cutie.

Chuuya trying to drunk call Dazai is my favorite thing lol

*Original Review 1/11/2020*
I feel like these go by so quick. The more I read the more I want to pick up the light novels. This world is so interesting and the concept of all the characters being named after authors is so intriguing. I can't get over how much I love this series.

(low-key spoilers)

IV. (#13-16) | tagline: boss pervert is my new fetish | Boss Pervert делает весь том, конечно. При просмотре аниме я плевалась, что в финале вовсе не удивительный твист, но по размышлении - это же нереальной, извращенной красоты подкол. Когда увидела его маленькую фигурку, заведомо жмущуюся в уголок в двух шагах от героев, чуть не упала :D (как классно, когда знаешь, ЧТО искать на картинке). Причем этот псих с мертвыми глазами даже не пытается скрывать свои наклонности, и я до сих пор в легкой прострации - где заканчивается способность и начинается нездоровый интерес?.. Мельком видела лонгпост на тумбе на тему того, что он есть единственная опора портомафии, без него криминальные ребята скатились бы до безыскусного разбоя. И я склонна согласиться, менеджмент организации - это тебе не хухры-мухры :D

Тут есть целая глава, посвященная Хигучи, но я к ней дышу ровно. Она для меня - источник истеричных криков “Акутагава-семпай!!!11”, ну и все. А короткий эпизод с непописуемым Миядзавой лучше смотрелся в аниме - там дорко-восторженные мордашки Ацуши вписались на ура :)

Dazai is no longer human. Недавно увидела краем глаза возмущенное мнение, что Дазай - ленивый и безответственный. Так оно и есть, только это не какие-то обособленные недостатки, а следствие того, что ему все равно. Он просто пустой :) Психопаты, долбанутые на всю голову, пережившие страшные травмы и недолюбленные в детстве “злодеи” - это настолько скучно, когда рядом есть антигерой, которому даже предъявить нечего, потому что он пустой и мертвый внутри. Вокруг столько плохишей с тяжелой судьбой и объяснимой мотивацией, которых можно вдоль и поперек расписать по злодейскому псевдо-учебнику. И тут тебе попадается такой вот провисающий антигерой, с легкостью сбрасывающий приставку “анти” - и легкость эта обусловлена тем, что ему просто все равно.

А еще - что у Дазая под бинтами, а? В смысле, я на автомате приняла версию, что это его способ скрыть от мира оболочку вслед за мыслями. И тут меня окружили теории вроде - при использовании способности он испытывает боль и прячет следы под бинтами; он просто неуклюжий дорк, которому вечно попадает/который весь покрыт отметинами после неудачных попыток прекратить существование; это опознавательный знак клуба любителей суицида; ну и совсем депрессивная - в свободное время он практикует self-harm.
Shit just got real, huh? Чем дальше копаешь в отношении Дазая, тем грустнее.
