I also like Aktugawa more in this manga than in the canon manga. I also love how this manga adds more depth to Atsushi and Aktugawa as characters.
I also really like that this manga adds more depth to Aktugawa's relationship to Gin and we see how he cares about her. This is also probably going to be expanded on more as the manga progresses and I'm excited to see where it goes.

I'm really interested in Dazai as the port mafia boss in this universe. I'm really curious as to how exactly he ended up becoming the mafia boss I know he had to have killed Mori which I'm sooo happy about but I want to know the details of how it happened.
Also there are funny moments like when Kunikida is just yelling at Oda for being like 3 hours late even though he is the one that found Aktugawa. It was so funny because I didn't expect that to be their dynamic like similar to his and Dazai's dynamic but different.
And also Atsushi being The White Reaper of the Port Mafia is so insanely cool. I absolutely love this manga and can't wait to buy and read all the other 3 volumes.

I thought you can't make orphans suffer anymore than the og bsd, but holy shit man poor Akutagawa. Killing off all his friends, separating him from his sister, AND rubbing salt in the wound. Mr. "Man-In-Black", that's rough.
ADA!OdaSaku, ADA!Akutagawa, PM!Atsushi, and PM!Kyouka are something I never knew I needed until now. And of course, mafia boss Dazai 👀 Now I can't tell if this switch-around is better for all the characters involved because on one hand, Oda is here and very alive, Aku is in a better environment without the whole cycle of abuse, and Oda seems to be a much better mentor to Aku than Dazai was, but Atsushi as Dazai's right hand man? Who knows what that poor kid had to go through, he's clearly traumatised from something. And what about Dazai? What did he suffer through to become the literal leader of the Port Mafia? Kinda scared to know.
On a brighter note, let's talk about Beast!Chuuya's conflicted yet unwavering loyalty to Dazai ðŸ˜
And ooooh the different art style is a total vibe.
