When the duo falls on the ground Dazai forces Chūya to rest on his lap and stops him from getting up when Chūya tried to use his knee as a support, because he did not want to risk it any longer for if the fog separates Chūya from his ability specially when Chūya was worn out. To which Chūya replies with, 'You were the one who hid that antidote in your mouth knowing that I would come and punch you to life.' As Dazai mentions in their reunion episode, Chūya clearly loses control and does not have the track of reality while under his own ability but this time, while using corruption, the one and only thing that was on his mind was 'Dazai.'Īfterwards when Chūya manages to rescue Dazai, Dazai gently touches his cheek to nullify corruption and greets him with, 'You used Corruption believing in me? I am so touched I could cry.' Chūya groans, and replies that yes he did, Dazai argues it with, 'That was a somewhat a violent way to wake the snow white up.' claiming himself as the snow white and Chūya his prince who saved him and should have kissed him otherwise. As well as Chūya screams for Dazai, while on Corruption clearly he is not supposed to be in sane state of mind. In 'Dead Apple,' Chūya uses corruption to save Dazai, even if Ango says that he's dead for sure. There had been also an extra chapter where Ozaki Koūyo was looking for Chūya but when she was unable to find him she came across his coat where she noticed a badge sewed inside saying 'Dear Hatrack's.' Their constant childish bickering and fighting is something iconic for the pair however, Chūya is aware of his partner not experiencing a proper childhood therefore allows him to act as childish as he can and lets him tease him relentlessly. Later Dazai is also seen folding Chūya's coat and hat before taking his leave. Also, the duo seem to be known to each other to a questionable point when Dazai says he knows Chūya's 'Thrust', to which Chūya responds with, 'I was just going easy on you,' with a faint blush. However, their partnership resumes during the conflict with the foreign organization The Guild. Their partnership collapsed for four years when Dazai decided to leave Port Mafia and join the Armed Detective Agency.

Chūya raged but he later realizes it was a code language for what will happen the following day and where to find him. He then recalls a conversation from the previous night during an executives meeting where Dazai calls him extremely small in size and he is in need of a microscope to be able to see him properly. In the events of 'Dragon Head's Rush' (light novel and from the game) Chūya is seen breaking into Dazai's room to check if he was safe just to find an empty room.

However, in the 'Dead Apple' light novel, it had been mentioned that the chant was originally created by his partner Dazai Osamu, as followed: 'The wind rose, Chūya's hair floated. Next it was during the arc of 'Dragon Head's Rush.' Chūya did not chant anything while he had activated corruption as shown in the movie. The first time when Chūya had used Corruption was mentioned in the light novel for the duo 'Dazai, Chūya, 15 years old'. However, still to the present times, Dazai likes to refer Chūya to his 'Sheep Dog'. During the events of the light novel for the pair, Dazai had also claimed Chūya to be his dog, to which Chūya declines.

Dazai was well aware that the gang under the name of 'The Sheep' was merely using Chūya for their own goods and decided to trick them into abandoning Chūya for his good in future. The pair have an unconditional trust on each other.Īs stated in 'Bungou Stray Dogs: Dead Apple' guide book, 'The core characterization of Dazai and Chūya's partnership is based on pure trust where both of them are capable of leaving each other's life on the other's hand without a second thought or doubt.'Įven if Dazai and Chūya had few misunderstanding at the very beginning, the trust was always present from an unknown force. They are also known as 'Yokohama's vicious duo'. This resulted in them recognizing themselves as Soukoku, or Double Black, among other enemy organizations. The duo was named Soukoku after one memorable night during the events of 'Dragon's Head Rush', where they had defeated an enemy organization in a short amount of time that night. The man who had paired them was Mori Ougai, the new cheaf of the mafia, who reasoned that 'only diamonds can be polished by diamonds.' Both Dazai and Chūya were paired up with each other when they were 15 years old.
