The Bungo Stray Dogs Season 5 Finale is INSANE 

Comment your favorite joke from the video below!

“what the hell is ao3” DANNY how do you have THIS fanbase and you don’t know what ao3 is?!😭

The way someone ACTUALLY wrote a fanfic with him and ranpo oh my lord 😭

Danny you would not believe the hysteria of whether Dazai was dead or not. We had no new manga chapters so nobody knew what the finale would be for certain. There were so many theories it was crazy. There were theories, hysteria, the fandom was split into "obviously he will live" and "but how do you outwrite him getting shot?" and the debates were heated. A very special and tense week for the bsd fandom where we for once were all completely clueless

"does fyodors ability has to do smth with after death!?" DANNY WHATS UP WITH YOUR PSYCHIC FUTURE READJNG STUFF AND FEALLY THOJGH STOP IT 😭

THE PURE SHOCK IN DANNY'S FACE WHEN DAZAI GETS SHOT IS GLORIOUS

As a Chuuya stan, yes, we're still going wild about fangs Chuuya to the point that (to me at least) its already canon. But, to be fair, were constantly going wild about every pixel of chuuya we have, new season or not. Its not a fancy life, but its the life we chose

"is this nathaniel hawthorne" KILLED ME LIKE THAT WAS THE LAST THING I EXPECTED HIM TO SAY

watching his reactions to BSD is like a breath of fresh air. he helps me remember how absolutely ridiculous the plot is lol. it's a mess but it's OUR lovely mess.

My biggest flex is that I have seen the entire progression of the Danpo agenda

Danny's breakdown at the end of ep 10 is basically how all manga readers felt but for like months

“Does his ability do something after death?!” .. Chapter 114.5 is born.

I really wanted to see Danny's reaction to Nikolai holding Fyodor's arm up to his cheek like I would have started sobbing on the spot

Danny, trust me. You don't want to know what ao3 is. It's a spiral of chaos that once you get sucked into it, you can never escape. Trust me, it's not worth it. You're already going insane enough as it is.

Danny: “What the hell is AO3?” Fanfiction writers: “……..”

The look on Danny’s face when Dazai ‘died’ and when he saw Akutagawa’s new fit was amazing😂

As crazy as the finale was for a lot of people, I can see why someone watching behind the schedule wouldn't agree or think it was overhyped. Part of what made it so insane was the week of buildup prior to the episode. From the theories, to the Dazai edits, to the fact that even manga fans didn't know what would happen, it was one of the most chaotic "you had to be there" moments in fandom I've ever seen. It definitely increased the enjoyment of what happened in the final episode.

You know, my theory was the guy at the end was Fukuchi from a different timeline but just to see Danny go insane I hope it's Nathaniel Hawthorne

If you want to know how crazy Tumblr went, the Bungou Stray Dogs tag was top of trending for more than a couple days, and it continued to be in the top ten for several more.

30:33 "Does it do something after death?" This aged really well after the latest chapter....

99% sure its Fukuchi, the hair, the scar, and hes wearing the mask that he wears in the official art, the one where the entire fandom has agreed Nikolai and Fyodor are holding hands in

Lmao, Danny is getting so famous that people are making FANFICTION congrats/condolences

If this makes you feel any better Danny I think Ranpo and Poe's ship is better than yours 😂

"cuz we never learned fyodor's ability" "does it do something after death?" his gonna lose his mind

I love watching Danny go insane

okay but if they take a break from the manga story to cover Stormbringer (chuuya's insane backstory), 55 Minutes (crazy groundhog day side story) and Beast (alternate universe where atsushi and akutagawa swap places), in either movies or OVAs, I wouldnt be dissapointed, theyre a lot of fun.

Danny’s blood pressure was absolutely through the roof this round and I feel horrible for loving every second of him stress pulling his own hair and screaming at the top of his lungs when anything suspenseful happens 😂 Mans really out here putting himself on the “Absolutely needs a pacemaker before age 30” list for our entertainment and i appreciate him for shortening his lifespan for the tumblrites 🤣🤣🤣

Danny's reaction summed up the fanbases reaction to Dazai's 'death' scene so well. Everyone was shocked and going crazy over it, it was trending on twitter for a time

The manga isn't on break. However currently it is covering the events of episode 11 (as the anime surpassed the manga), so it's going to be a while before we get completely new content. Chapter 110.5 just covered the bit where Aya falls, Fukuzawa gets back up, and Atsushi gets bitten. edit: guys i liked the finale stop replying to this hoping for divergence. i dont care

The fact that there’s only now fan fiction between Danny and Ranpo is hilarious. Can’t wait to see what else comes out

'OH SIKE BITCH your special ability is delivering an oscar winning performance' 15:41 and the 'what the fuck is he wearing?! This is 2 hours later, when did you get knighted!?!?' 31:14 were top tier jokes in my opinion, hella funny asf

the actual tears I cried when I heard the words "is this Nathaniel Hawthorne" I literally cannot stop laughing OMG I ALMOST THREW UP LAUGHING WHEN I SAW DANNY'S FACE AT 31:12 "what the fuck is he wearing"

I had almost the same reaction to hearing that season 6 would probably take several years to get here, but I'm stuck between praying they animate other content like Stormbringer to use as "filler" and screaming and pleading that they don't screw up Stormbringer.

You know an antagonist I really wanna see in bsd? Franz Kafka- THAT COULD BE SO FLIPPING COOL

10:09 HOW DID HE NOT REACT TO FYOFOR SAYING “dazai,dear”,DUDE HE SOUNDED LIKE A DAM GRANDMA😭✋ Edit1: I can just imagine Him going “dazai dear,I made cookies :)”

"Does Fyodors ability have something to do with after death" DANNY STOP THIS

The parallel's in that final scene with Fukuchi and Fukuzawa to Dazai and Oda are too insane.

I am currently hoping that they will now animate some of the light novels. Bungou has a lot of side stories that they could work on. Stormbringer better be its own movie

“It’ll take fyodors limbs spread everywhere for me to think he’s dead” This is abt to blow ur mind (It happened and bro isn’t even dead)

3 YEARS, DANNY WE’RE GOING TO HAVE TO WAIT 3 YEARS FOR SEASON 6… Its so much time to wait 😢

I think we're in some sort of split timeline right now. Way too much is happening for it to be a mere two hours later. The man in the mask has similar scars and hair to Fukuchi. My theory is that when they stopped the war from happening, it either unleashed something worse, or something else is trying to fix the timeline so that the war DOES happen. It may possibly be the sword because Fukuchi did say it whispered to him about the war that was supposed to take place in the future.

Danny legit went through the 5 stages that the fandom done through after Dazai was shot 😂

I genuinely started sobbing when dazai came on screen cause I waited MONTHS and I guess my pent up emotions just came out 😅😅

I honestly expected Danny to be more surprised with chuuya just acting as a vampire

This is both something we've all been waiting for, yet also something we aren't prepared for

If you haven't done so, I heavily recommend reading Stormbringer or The Day I Picked Up Dazai, they're light novels related to BSD that help flesh out characters like Chuuya, Oda, Ango, and Dazai

*Danny's face when Chuuya shot dazai* How the fandom felt for MONTHS

Its so fun seeing Danny experience 2 months worth of emotions in the bsd fandom in like 10 minutes

I understand why Danny doesn't care as much about Fyodor, Dazai, Fukuzawa, and Fukuchi because he didn't have to wait so so long for new chapters with them to come out. Also I don't know how the hell you could see that thingy at the end being Fukuchi because the hair looks so much like him and the scar, plus yk all the other stuff.

by the way, the latest manga chapter (chapter 110.5) came out on october 4 and it ended with fukuzawa slicing fukuchi's neck, so it only covered up until the first three minutes of the ep. it will take several months to reach the episode's ending since bsd is a monthly manga

Me who red the latest manga updates: It might seem crazy what I'm bout to say....

Watching this 10 months later as a manga reader, the shit that happened between the ending of S5 and the preview of S6 is crazy. What’s even crazier however is that you kind of predicted how Fyodor’s ability works 😭 you’re unironically more omnipotent than the actual characters…

YESSSS I'VE BEEN WAITING I really was shocked at every death and every minute of this seaso. I love the hype. I LOVE how chyuua literally avenged himself by making daizai hurt. He literally came back at him for the drowning shit by causing him pain with the bullets. Which if you remember Dazai hates.

i think most people are hoping for one of the light novels to be animated while we wait for the manga to progress further

Those "buy a gun" jokes are hitting different now huh Danny

30:31 Can this man stop predicting the future already ???? 😂

OMG I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS DAY I GOT SO MAD WHENEVER SAW ANOTHER REACTION BC I WAS SO DESPERATE TO SEE YOU REACT TO THIS 😭

Due to the scars on his face it looks like Fukuchi at the end, not sure how or why. But also due to the fact Akutagawa looks so different some people are assuming there was either a time travel thing with the characters or possibly alternate universe stuff like beast. I also don't think Fyodor is dead either to be honest, as much as I would prefer to move on from him as an antagonist lol

nathaniel hawthorne just shows up once per season like an annoying fly until someone shoos him away

Fun fact to ruin your sense of time: Dazai and Fedya were in jail for 5 years canonically

God I loved the Nathaniel Hawthorne return joke it had me in tears 😂😂😂😂😂 I'm kinda starting to wish it was him just for the reaction that would get out of you Danny but I don't think It is him , maybe fukuchi came back from another future I wouldn't put it past bungo to pull that 😂😂😂

Can’t wait for Danny do put all the episodes in one season like he did for season one and two so we can just watch all of them in one big bideo

Danny’s reaction to Dazai getting shot by Chuuya genuinely caught me off guard because I was expecting him to be chill but this was great

"until i see fyodor's body parts strewn on the ground i still won't believe that he's dead" uh...danny?

Absolutely feel you on the cuss words. The second i hear the word fuck i'm squealing and giggling. There's just something so jarring about it, it just makes everything feel so real because they barely ever say it. But yeah hope you enjoyed the finale, personally i also didn't give a fuck about fukuchi amd fukuzawa, but the rest was pretty damn good

I haven't even watched the video yet but I'm terrified to see Danny's reaction to all of this unfolding..

Bram hasn't been using his legs for so long, I think it would be kinda hilarious if he had to go through physical rehab to get back to walking when he got his legs back lol

Asagiri (the author) wants a Season 6 and Movie, so this isn’t the end 😎

The fact I KEPT GIGGLING on Danny's reaction on Dazai getting SHOT 🤭🤭🤭

many of my reactions were the same as danny’s tbh 😭 • fyodor and chuuya surviving the flooding (expected, i doubted dazai actually expected them to die he just wanted to slow them down) • dazai’s “death” (i laughed when he yelled and started squirming around because dazai’s usually so composed. but then he got shot multiple times and i was shocked. i knew he wasn’t dead though since chuuya was the one behind the gun) • fyodor’s death (once again started laughing because i wasn’t expecting him to die via helicopter crash. it was such an anticlimactic end for him. i was sad about nikolai’s reaction though) • teruko stabbing fukuchi made me do a double take. i was also hoping for fukuzawa’s death (not because i don’t like him, i just want to see how the agency reacts) but i guess that’s not happening anytime soon

Love how he didn't have to wait so long to find out if dazai was dead or not, the whole fandom was in shambles when that chapter came out lol

the manga releases a chapter once every month and it's currently at the point where fukuzawa stole ame-no-gozen. i think the villain at the end may be the author of the book "the decay of the Angel" - yukio mishima- since the new villain has similarities with each of the decay of angel members :)

“BUY A GUN” - Danny Motto 2022 (season 1, ep.1)

Danny immediately jumping to Nathaniel Hawthorne is so funny 😭

0:52 "No potential love interest" Does this man not sense the gay tension between Poe and Ranpo like damn, man's been obsessing over his rival for like 6 years and fanboys abt his ultra deduction "ability", also has a hard time saying no to him and loves seeing Ranpo with a shocked face, another thing is he wouldn't know what to do with himself if Ranpo actually died, gave Ranpo one of his novels to use whenever he needed to escape danger and one last thing is he willingly helps Ranpo with whatever he needs and even went to the point of sniping something *on a roof* /watching over Ranpo from *a roof* (this part is when Ranpo sent himself and Chuuya Into the book) despite his *fear of heights* Like damn, get me a man who would do this for me (Not the obsessing part, lil weird but he's definitely down bad or something for Ranpo)

giggling like a maniac rn at danny’s reaction to dazai’s death scene

29:45 when I first saw this guy I audibly gasped and went "It's William Shakespeare!"

"Does his ability do something after death?" STOP PREDICTING SHIT DAMN IT 😭

The way the bsd fandom was freaking out so hard, people made SHRINES for Dazai to live 😭

I genuinely got so scared that Dazai was dead until the last episode came out and I was like oh 😇

Danpo is so cannon ☺️

BSD is literally a fanfic that Asagiri wrote about his favorites authors

Since the Beast manga confirmed the existence of alternate universes, a lot of people believe that that it’s Fukuchi as the digimon looking MF and that both him and akutagawa traveled from different worlds and shit.

In the end, I’m pretty sure that dude may have been Fukuchi (whether he’s a corpse or somehow alive again i have no idea) but I think that because if you watch the scene again, he has the same face scar that Fukuchi has, plus the hair and Anemogozen

FINALLY OMG I’VE WAITED SO LONG 😭😭 Also Ao3 is a fan fiction app. 😂

“Until I see Fyodor’s body parts scattered across the grounds, I still won’t buy that he’s dead” Me: …😂 *2 minutes later* 26:36 “OH WHAT, DON’T TAKE HIS ARM!”

"this will be the last bsd ep for a LONG time" the manga is still not at that 2 hours later fight btw 😭 so uh. yeah

I have waited for this video, checking my notifications every hour since the finale has aired and I am so goddamn excited to watch this

I WAS WAITING FOR THIS ONE OMG

the latest bsd manga chapters are making me bawl

30:35 YOU LITERALLY ALMOST GUESSED HIS ABILITY BEFORE THE MANGA CHAPTERS WERE RELEASED WHAT THE HELL

After losing a certain character recently… I was very happy that dazai made it😂

HELP ME THE FAN FICTION??? 😭😭

Sigma brought a gun to a knive fight and still lost 💀

the fact thaat bone skipped fukuzawa's worried little "ranpo..." when he got stabbed wtf

I mean you can flood a not-fully-closed room as long as more water goes in than gets out

There's actually a theory that in the final scene its actually an akutagawa from a different universe (cause multiverse is actually canon in bsd) and the villain they were fighting was fukuchi from the future

HE DOESN’T KNOW WHAT A03 IS OH MY SWEET SUMMER CHILD Also I have been EAGERLY anticipating this video. Because I knew about the Dazai thing when it happened in the manga, and I have been WAITING for Danny’s reaction. Well worth it. Also also, guys, Dazai said all that to Chuuya FULLY AWARE THAT CHUUYA WAS CONSCIOUS. That fact is just so funny to me

I cannot put into words the amount of joy I get when Danny posts a new bsd reaction

DANNY WE NEED A PROPER STATEMENT ABOUT THE DANPO ALLEGATIONS
