I'm...actually quite happy about how this turned out. :D I'll probably regret not waiting until next week to get more scenes though... Song: Without Me, Halsey Fandom: Bungou Stray Dogs Software: iMovie
it annoys me so much whenever anyone says they hate each other. whether you ship them or not they clearly share a extreme bond. They trust their life in the others hands even when on opposite sides. The smile that dazai gives chuuya after he uses corruption against lovecraft is enough proof on its own. Dazai is massively depressed and basically lacks any meaning or happiness in his life, he acts happy but its obviously fake. Yet he smiles at chuuya even though chuuya can't see. He's not faking it for others benefit. thats real.
They don't hate each other. they are annoyed by the other (most chuuya being annoyed at dazai) and they might say they hate each other but i don't think they ever did or will. not fully at any rate.
Dazai only lives so he can help chuuya when he has corruption he knows that hes never actually gonna die hes failed so many times. Chuuya needs dazai because if he doesnt use his not human power on him he will die after using corruption
@Chuuya's Official Wife But when they met back, they still need each other. Just as in Dead Apple, they were also there for each other when one need. :)))
Before I met Chuuya I figured Dazai was supposed to be paired with Kunikida and I just didn't feel it. Then I met Chuuya and saw his interactions with Dazai and was like, that's the one. I respect the other pairs, but I am pretty strongly attached to Soukoku be it romantically or platonically, I like it both ways just depending on the day. I think it's because of their deep bond.
No matter what they're saying, they really care about each other. I can't imagine Dazai being mentally stable without Chuuya. Same goes for Chuuya. Because of the same ages each of them is the reason of the other's mental survival. Also, the edit is fire! I get really emotional every time I listen to it, thank you!
Its really a case of muscle and brains XD Chuuya is the muscle and does the dirty work, and Dazai is the brains for all the plans XD he also substitutes as the last resort to come save all the dumbasses XD
The both of them were the perfect duo Dazai is the brain who comes up with tactics, plans and ideas while Chuuya is the one who would physically fight Chuuya can’t also use corruption cause he can die and Dazai is the only one who has an ability to dispel an ability Even if they argue alot, It’s pretty obv that they care for each other, i mean- never have i ever seen Chuuya and Dazai fight when it’s abt a war between port mafia and the agency, the times they fight is when they annoy each other lmfao Edit: Add the fact that Chuuya is like the mom of Akutagawa while Dazai is like the dad
Someone else who sees it the way I do!!! I jokingly say that Dazai and Chuuya have four kids, with a potential fifth. There's Aktugawa and Gin, who followed Mom in the Port Mafia and are in Chuuya's custody, then you Atsushi and Kyoka, the two who followed dad into the ADA and are in Dazai's custody. The 5th kid is obviously Q, or if you're into the crazy conspiracy theories, Aya Koda, because she's the perfect blend of both of them.
I like to think that Mori paired them up because he saw they both can balance each other out and years later Dazai wants to pair Atsushi and Akutagawa together because he saw what he had with Chuuya as Double Black in them
Agree. He is very kind and strong person! He was in the hell and suffered so many times. Even before his birth but he was able to live no matter what. I love it about him
Exactly what I'm saying. Altho, I like them too, he could do better. Like Chuuya's always the one in pain in suffering and in the end he doesn't even get enough credit from the Port mafia
I see Chuuyas pain. Chuuya was forced by dazai. Dazai was always the favourite. Dazai left the mafia and left Chuuya alone. After all of chuuyas loyalty daizai’s still the favourite.
The fact that the lyrics make so much sense for soukoku.... Like we all saw how Dazai kept on moving towards dark and maniac behavior but then Chuuya became his partner and slowly all the actions were finished by him, he did all the dirty works, and dazai didn't have to use his hands to clear stuff out, Chuuya filled his spot slowly, that is the reason Dazai could leave the mafia or else Mori would've just grabbed him back, he went towards the light but Chuuya was left in the dirt... Even though Dazai was the only one who knew he isn't a human Chuuya had so much humanity, towards his comrades, he treated his co-workers and team like family, even to show respect to the dead, he had the hunch to live life, to keep the humanity that was left off him... We all kniw all these are canon and head canons.... But yeah it makes so sense, it's so true that even though Dazai left he can't keep on living without getting involved with him, it's just not possible....
When I searched for some shounen-ai animes,bsd was one of the first animes that appeard when I searched it..Now I see why UwU.I love this ship and edit so so much💞.
The lyrics hit it off at the exact moment at the anime it's just like Chuuya's telling his POV in a music ... Just a humbe opinion lol ok scroll down now
chuuya is my favorite character, if in the next chapters of the manga I discover that at the end of everything if he is dead because of dazai I will hate him
This is my favorite amv of any fandom. Love Soukoku 🖤 and perfect song for them. I repeat this all the time. I love your big plans and only one king videos too. Your really good at this and I hope you do more Soukoku and hopefully shin soukoku and other ships. ❤
wait why is this song fitting with soukoku? i mean just imagine chuuya is sad and angry at dazai for leaving the port mafia without him... they were partners since they were 15 and then dazai left the port mafia and chuuya had no one as close left with him so he's sad that dazai left him alone 😭😭💔
In an article it was explained thoroughly. Chuuya is a person with boundaries and an ethic code that he follows strictly. This code includes respecting the deceased (stops Dazai from shooting a dead enemy and respects Rimbaud when he was dying and afterwards) and he despises betrayal (reason why he dislikes Dazai so much). Dazai on the other hand is a depressed young man with little awareness of right and wrong (he doesnt feel empathy even when he works for the ADA) who basically changes sides not because of morals, but because his friend Odasaku suggested it. In the end, Chuuya is a "good" person working for the badies and Dazai is an "evil" person working with the goodies. Thats why they cant stand each other.
@@rulerthelion860 They're a lot deeper than just not being able to stand each other though. They know each other inside out. Dazai only lets Chuuya manhandle him, and Chuuya goes to the trouble of trying/making Dazai laugh depending on Anime or manga. He's the only one that gets a real smile out of Dazai without Dazai feeling like he's supposed to be smiling. Dazai is actually doing a lot better among the ADA than the PM, he has learned some compassion, but he's at his best and happiest when around Chuuya. In Dead Apple,Chuuya was the only one that didn't think Dazai was dead when the Dragon appeared, even Ango who is supposedly a friend of Dazai's believed him dead. Chuuya would essentially be commiting suicide if he used corruption and Dazai was actually dead. They rely on each other quite a bit even while being on separate sides. They trust each other more than anyone or anything else, no matter the betrayal between them. You also have to remember that Dazai is the one that brought Chuuya to the PM, they grew up together, and understood each other from their first meeting. How hard was it on Chuuya without Dazai by his side and how hurt must he have been when Dazai defected? On Dazai's end, it was probably his insecurities acting up, he didn't think Chuuya would be willing to come with him, or he didn't want to take Chuuya away from a second home/family after he was the one to take him from the Sheep and into the Port Mafia.

Dazai and Chuuya's partnership was given the nickname "Soukoku" - which is most commonly translated as Double Black - in canon, and it just became the ship name. Likewise, the ship name of Atsushi and Akutagawa has become Shin Soukoku - the new double black.
I really-really can’t get it, how anybody would ever believe they hate eachother!!! They clearly know eachother in depths nobody else does, and they do love, trust and accept eachother despite their barbs. Just for example: Remember S05E11? Dazai practically placed his life into Chuuya's hand. Or all the scenes in Dead apple? Where the only thing Chuuya was thinking about before facing the dragon, was to get to and save Dazai. Even Ango knew who was the ultimate ace to mention to Chuuya, in his attempt to make Chuuya act. And not to mention all that came during and after Chuuya rescued Dazai. 😊 It wasn’t even sublime. And then Mori's speech, or confession at the end? C'mon, no matter his reasons, that man is definitely a Shoukoku shipper. So, No!!!! They definitely don’t hate eachother. They are more like a bickering but totally head over in heels in love married couple. Their realitionship actually made me kinda think of Mr and Mrs Smith's dynamic.😂
Yeah 1:49 that's pretty much taking advantage... He couldn't move... And the fog... Dazai... but holding him closer isn't necessary... is it...?... You know what, it is.
They were trying so hard because of the Guild and I was like bruuhh !! Just send Dazai & Chuuya over ! They'll wipe out the entire Guild ! * just my pov* 🤷🏽♀️
I feel so sad....yet warm....they will always stay THE otp....even if they die...even if they hate each other....even if they kill each other ir themselves....
It’s sad that Dazai is _everything_ to Chuuya… he’s the reason Chuuya feels human, he’s the only one Chuuya can use Corruption around, he’s the person who made him join the Mafia for life, and they were partners and Dazai meant so much to him. But on Dazai’s part, he left, with a bomb in Chuuya’s car as a goodbye note and watched him drown. :)
Sure, Dazai is important to Chuuya. But he has/had other people in his life that were important as well. The flags, the sheep, Koyou, his friends in the dragon conflict, his subordinates. Besides, the whole drowning thing. What was he supposed to do? He had no choice, it's either let a dangerous terrorist loose due to him having control over someone he cares about. Or "kill" the person he cares for, so the ADA is saved and the whole world doesn't suffer due to Fyodor's plans. Now, the whole bombing thing, at least it was car and not his motorcycle. Dazai leaving had nothing to do with Chuuya, he was leaving an abusive enviorment and Chuuya understands that, he knows Dazai better than anyone afterall (Oda understands him as well tho). Chuuya is not stupid nor is he Dazai's victim. They were partners as you said, and they equals along with partners.
This whole song feels like chuuya singing to dazai idk why it just fits and the scenes fit well with the music especially 1:10, I always laugh at that scene plus the music just made it funnier.
If I didn't know the real thing, watching this would make me think that those two are in love. Great job! (Sorry for my terrible english, I'm italian and it's 1.55 am here. I should sleep maybe-)
alright idk why i wrote this but i just thought of this after listening to this song so- chuuya finds dazai is a state of despair. His body had injuries all over. 0:16 dazai tells how he had blood on his hands 0:26 of several innocent and he wishes to die of that guilt.0:27 chuuya confronts him telling him past can't be changed and he should give no fuck.0:23. chuuya finds dazai is the worst of states and makes him stable enough to stand on his two feet. 0:35 As soon as dazai recovers of his injuries, without a flinch, dazai looks right back at him, telling how he killed chuuya's family. Chuuya gets shocked to the bone. 0:39 he kicks chuuya and leaves. they become rivals then on. dazai gets into the best agency leading and is a top notch leader sitting on the highest position.0:41 while chhuya crumbles in sorrow of his families murder. yet to seek revenge from dazai, chuuya tries his best to makes a comeback and joins the port mafia. They end up in two competing groups and fight various times. 0:49 With his strength, chuuya abducts dazai once to receive answers to his questions. chuuya ties dazai with chains in a dungen. Chuuya mocks dazai with a smirk and dazai retaliates saying how badly his family was killed. chuuya turns his back and launches an attack to open dazai's chains. he wanted an equal fights, once and for all 1:38 but the dungen was soon attacked by a rival gang who wanted to kill both leading figures in the under world at once. 1:42 They both team up to beat the overwhelming number of mafia's who came to attack them. they killed them all together. The ground became pitch red of the blood. seeing how the intruders were all killed, chuuya punched dazai to let him not escape. 1:46 he lashed out screaming and maddened to get his answers. dazai doesn't speak a word. chuuya only gets more raged thinking of how kind dazai seemed at first and the memories they once shared. he punches the wall fiercely. 2:06 he knew dazai won't say spill information. with a killing intent and knife in his hand, he approaches dazai. 2:30 he jabs the knife right at dazai, but delibrately misses the shot. 2:35 "you don't have to say, just what you did. i already know. i had to go and find out from them" chuuya knew he didn't abduct dazai, dazai let himself get abducted. he intentionally fell into the obvious trap. 2:09 - 2:14 he had ordered his troops to let chuuya enter if they didn't want to witness death soon. he expected chuuya to come hunt him down. chuuya felt humiliated and decided to take his final move. he wished to cause utter destruction and seek revenge. chuuya wanted to die along with his most powerful form. 2:52 but dazai came and stopped chuuya before he could. chuuya fell onto his knees well knowing he had been defeated. dazai smiled and finally told chuuya his parents were killed due to the greatest and strongest form of gravitation. if someone can't cope up with the consequences of its form, they end up destroying everything and everyone along with themselves. even dazai can't stop the destruction by touching them if the user's power isn't their own. chuuya's parents had the power to one ability and they chose gravitation. the power of it was too much and so killed his parents making chuuya an orphan. dazai didn't want this to happen again and so saved chuuya.
I love them truly they’re one of the best ships i ship period they’re like a puzzle one is powerful and careless and has room to spare in his brain the other is generally weak and incredibly careful and is a genius. They’ve both suffered a lot in a lot of similar things so i understand that they would be a couple, but as always no relationship is perfect. (All im about to say is from the canon info provided to us and i just put them together and got this) Dazai left chuuya without saying anything. He basically abandoned him his 4 year partner and his rival. His best friend. I understand him leaving but unless you’re someone who has been abandoned and set aside you wouldn’t understand the agony of that..
