55 minutes art??? I call that a win.
I love this so much. The thieves were one of my favorite parts of the light novel, especially Atsushi's interactions with them, it's a shame they probably won't come up ever again.
For those who haven't, read 55 minutes! It's awesome!
got a bit of a friendgroup going
some physical descriptions down below that i based my designs on (since Virgo and Nemo don't have canon designs)
I would like to remind everyone that this takes place after the Guild arc, meaning that Kunikida knows by now that Dazai was a Mafia executive. And that doesn't bother him in the slightest.
Since there won't be a season six anytime soon, I decided that they should make a season 5.5 where they animate both Stormbringer and 55 Minutes and title it Bungou Stray Dogs: Nobody Likes French People.
So um, about that…
ok maybe people have talked about this before but what if the book from bsd is supposed to parallel the book from 1984? in british literature class, we just started reading 1984, and upon reading the first chapter, i noticed some similarities between the two books (spoiler alert for bsd and 1984)
the most obvious thing is that both books have no name, both just referred to as "the book"
another similarity is that both books have the power, or goal, to change humanity/society because of the people who have/want possession of it. in 1984, the brotherhood is writing the book to break down or change the oceania society. in bsd, fyodor and the decay of angels want to write in the book to change humanity to something better
also 1984 is a british book, and the british have a bit of great significance in the bsd universe (as seen in stormbringer, 55 minutes, and dead apple)
anyway yeah i just made that connection while reading 1984 and thought it was interesting :P
