GUYS
Y’all honestly need to give more love to atsushi bc he’s underrated in his OWN SHOW.
“But he’s a boring mc-“ Nuh Uh
He’s literally connected to the book somehow, his ability can literally rip other abilities to shreds,
Plus the theories on how he ended up in the orphanage and how much else he doesn’t even know happened to him bc he somehow forgot LITERALLY GETTING TORTURED BY SHIBUSAWA.
(My hc is that the headmaster definitely forced atsushi to be a cannibal-)
Like, his character is genuinely so interesting, and he’s one of the most mysterious characters in the show.
Same w Byakko. Like, an entirely sentient ability? Hello?
Plus all the shit w the headmaster?
And yet people say he’s boring… 😐
hey don’t cry. trees grow out of the ground.
I think it would be funny if everyone collectively just didnt care to change in to their work clothes for the plot of dead apple cause imagine Chuuya fighting that big ass dragon still in his dog themed pajama pants 🐶
redraw of something I drew a very long time ago :)
reblogs are greatly appreciated and if u want you can get a little imaginary kissie :3
og under the cut!!

jpsekai vs ensekai
atsushi with more cat/tiger behaviors but some lesser discussed ones:
he scratches all the doorways of the agency building and his dorm. kunikida scolds him for damaging property for over an hour but while he apologizes he’s strangely uncontrite (at least for atsushi who tends to overapologize) about it
/
a mostly nocturnal sleep schedule feels the most natural to him but since his orphanage’s schedule was (quite literally) beaten into him, he regularly wakes up early, though after a long mission or multiple in a row, he tends to sleep through the day instead.
/
when really frustrated (usually during an argument with akutagawa) he has a tendency to stomp his feet. it tends to break the tension, and atsushi finds its super embarrassing. akutagawa finds it cute
/
he’s constantly fighting the urge to sit on his coworkers desks while they’re working and distract them. same with knocking things off their desks.
/
head bunting!!!! he first starts doing it to kyouka after the end of the guild plot. just does it to her one morning while they’re cooking breakfast without realizing. he’s mortified for a moment until kyouka does it back, equally shy yet earnest about it. slowly he catches himself doing it to the rest of the agency: when kenji gives him a hug after a mission, when yosano buys him something he was looking at during a shopping trip, while sharing lunch with the tanizakis, to ranpo after atsushi solves his first mystery on own, to kunikida and dazai after a dangerous mission. he hasn’t worked himself up to doing it to the president yet (and fukuzawas kind of sad about it). dazai and kunikida are the most flustered by it, kenji and kyouka do it back to him the most.
/
as much as he hates being locked up or confined against his will (and he really hates it), he genuinely loves being in small spaces. he sleeps in the closest for kyoukas privacy but he does geniunely feel comfortable there. sometimes he eats lunch under his desk or in the supply room if he’s feeling stressed. dazai did give him a giant box once to see if he’d sit in it and he totally did.
/
he tends to suck on the corners of blankets and things like his shirts or sweaters when he’s asleep or distracted. dazai used to tease him for it until he read that it was often found cats taken to soon from their mothers. he didn’t really find it funny after that
/
he will just Stare at people. agency members look up from their work and will see him looking directly at them. he usually snaps out of it right after and apologizes but just like slow blinks and winks and closing his eyes, he starts doing it more and more as he gets in tune with his ability.
🤣anyone else hear that ominous bell tolling???🤣🤣🤣no?? just me??????😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Orange Cat Atsushi
Aka Atsushi is part orange tiger instead of white and thus exhibits orange cat behaviours.
Atsushi will eat anything.
Literally anything, it doesn’t matter if it’s food or not. When he’s hungry Atsushi will just munch on whatever is in front of him.
It has led to many, many instances of Kunikida chasing him around the office and demanding he spit something out.
Dazai: Well that’s one report done, what about you Atsushi?
Atsushi: I’m almost done.
Dazai: That’s great I bet we’ll be done in no ti-….0-0?!!!!
At that moment Atsushi picked up his pen lid and put it in his mouth.
Dazai: Hey, why don’t we take a quick break hm? Maybe play a game.
Atsushi: 🤨
Dazai: You drop that pen lid and I’ll take you out for lunch.
Atsushi shakes his head.
Dazai: Really? Not even if it’s some some tea on rice.
Atsushi considers this and spits out the lid before looking at Dazai expectantly.
Dazai, relieved: Well lunch time it is
Kunikida: Dazai you can’t just-
Dazai: He’s eating the pens.
Kunikida:…We have a meeting in another hour, try not to be late.
Dazai: Got it, you coming Atsushi?
Atsushi: Carry me.
Dazai, chuckles: Oh Atsushi, the things I do for you.
In chapter 162 of Wan! Akutagawa gets a heatstroke and then Atsushi brings him to hospital and it is just the cutest thing ever
HE PIGGYBACKED AKUTAGAWA 😭
I love them sm, also Atsushi stayed at the hospital until Akutagawa woke up<3
Atsushi caring about Akutagawa is adorable
one time i dreamt that teen dazai was living with oda for some reason and oda was like ‘hey u can bring/buy anything’ and he meant like things for his room maybe even a pet if dazai really wanted one but dazai was walking around and found a little white cat but it ran away from him so he kept looking until he met a little orphan who looked like the cat to him so he brought him home and thats how oda met atsushi
