Idk what the author wanted with the protagonist in this anime. We see him going isekai then he wants to die but also wants to find sacchan and set on a journey for it.. but then all he does is sleeping and attempting to die.. bruh make a decision whether you want to find sacchan or just be freaking dead

It’s based on an author named dazai who wants to die. There’s another character based off him in bungo stray dogs. This is nothing new.

Well, because it's referenced from one of Dazai's novels, No Longer Human(Ningen Shikkaku). The real Dazai Osamu also died by double suicide with his lover.

He is the best male character this season. Very intriguing and also partially relatable.

It's a fresh take on isekai and that's basically how Dazai is. It's not a new thing. If you want to find out more about the series, read the manga. Your questions will be answered.

We get a refreshing take on isekai with a more complex protagonist, and of course, this is the reception it gets. No wonder studios love churning out the same garbage. I don't understand how his behavior can even annoy you when it's all in line with his character from the start.

Not as drunk as when you made this post atleast.

As the other's stated the protagonist is based on popular author Osamu Dazai and his masterpiece "No longer human".

The author only made a typical Romantic writer (like Novalis, Baudelaire, Augusto dos Anjos) and mixed him with Nozomu Itoshiki (from Sayonara, Zetsubou-sensei).

@BlueMoonTornado

Yep. Anything that doesn't fit the same dreary mould is often called "trash" by those who just want more of the same again and again and again. (Not saying the OP is like that, as it sounds more like he/she just doesn't know about the the real-life Osamu Dazai).

And, if you know anything about Osamu Dazai's life (the real-life author and not the anime character) the way he is written here is wonderful.

Desperately wanting to die alongside his girlfriend (which he did, sadly, do in real life). And that is why, when he believes his suicide was a "failure" now he is in a new world, he figures his girlfriend failed to die too. That's why he wants to find "Sacchan", so the two of them can attempt to die again. Together.

And I love the ending of the anime, where Dazai steps out into a grey, rainy day heading off to commit suicide, and the door slides closed to reveal the outline of Sacchan standing next to him.

@fraz15

He is trying to find Sacchan, because the two of them attempted suicide together. So, now that he believes they both failed to kill themselves, he wants to find her a) because he loves her, and b) so that they can both try again.

Read about Osamu Dazai's life -- he was an incredibly talented Japanese author who committed suicide with his girlfriend Tomie in 1948 by drowning. Very sad, as he was only 38.

This anime is garbage. Seen first two episodes, and it was a chore, made me wanna die.

I guess we know what the author wanted to do, commit crimes against humanity by writing the shittiest character in existence as MC, and get away with it.

Anyway, waiting for this turd to stop airing so I can rate it 1/10 and move on. Going to fast forward through the series, most of the shit is pointless anyway.

@1List2RuleThemAl This comment is garbage. Read first two sentences, and it was pathetic, made me wanna die.

I guess we know what this person wanted to do, post some rage-bait comment on MAL by making the most pathetic comment in history, and be proud of it.

Anyways, I will continue to watch this show and rate this rage-bait a 1 out of 10. These types of comments are pointless anyway, I will just swiftly take a glance, ignore it, and move it.
