Nope! The crying definitely could have happened, but its not flat out stated. The headpat scene is entirely stage play original. In the light novel the entire bit about wanting Oda to have tried the hard tofu was at his grave instead.
The best part of that scene is there the possibility that Kunikida was slapping Dazai's ass because his face don't have bruises and his clothes don't seem messed up 🤣🤣🤣
Kinda sad Hideya wasn't Dazai in the live action movie of Beast. Masashi san and him had a great chemistry. But Rui also did great as Dazai. I watched the movie and I didn't feel like he replaced Hideya coz he truly did a great a job as Dazai.
I read the dark era novel last week. But i never imagined Dazai crying this much for Odasaku. I somehow pictured him more stoic just like in the anime. Ah ... Hideya's acting was just so heart breaking 😭 i love every bit of it.
okay ik this is a bit unrelated (?) but when dazai started crying i thought that when they did this during rehearsals odasaku would get up and scream ''CHOTO MATTE KUDASAIYO!!!''
Dazai is a very magical character to me because of how I can literally see myself,so every time I see Dazai cry I just magically started to cry also.I really do wonder,how on earth does Asagiri create a character like Dazai? He seems to be someone that you'll never meet in real life,because when you get deep into his past,he isn't just a fictional character anymore and has become yourself deep inside of you.
