You ever notice how when he goes into battle mode chuuya often goes low? Maybe he's neutralizing his lack of height intimidation by going for a gay little power crouch.

You don't need to read classic literature to enjoy BSD

(and just because you do, it does not render you superior)

I am not usually the type of creator to engage in fandom drama, especially not publicly, but it just so happens that this particular issue surpasses the limits of "silly discourse" and is actually a serious sociopolitical issue.

Bungo Stray Dogs is a piece of media that is based on real-life authors, therefore it is perfectly natural for fans of the manga to want to engage with the authors that inspired it. That is fine. That is great, even. Classic literature is first and foremost a means of expanding our educational horizons.

What is not okay, is when the act of reading classics is made out to be a requirement to join the fandom.

BSD is an action comic. Is it extremely well-thought out? Yes. Did Asagiri lace an impressive amount of classical knowledge into its plot and characters? Also yes. Is it still just an action comic? yes. I mean this with zero bad connotation--I am myself a professional comic artist, I would never degrade my own job.

But certain people need to understand that in order to enjoy, and engage with BSD, you do not need to read classical literature. Not in the slightest. It would be awesome if you did, but it is not necessary.

Do you know what is also not necessary? Shitting on other people for not having read classics.

Most of the BSD general audience is underage, and the majority of the classical works referenced within the BSD canon deal with themes of suicide, SA, racism, murder, and so on. And that's not even covering the philosophical dread of them. These topics are not fit for everyone, nor should they be. People are allowed to read for escapism, especially in those ages, and shaming them for it is simply put; ridiculous.

Take it from someone who was forced to read things such as To Kill a Mockingbird at an age where I should have been reading the Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Reading classics does not inherently make you smart.

It's one thing to be able to read words on paper and another thing to understand them. To take a piece of knowledge out of them. Some people's energy would be better spend trying to understand the classics that they claim to have read, instead of going on the internet to call non-classic readers stupid, and accusing them of not understanding a manga, whose plot has nothing to do with said classics.

Judging others based on their reading level and preferences does not make you cool, or intelligent, or even interesting.

It makes you a stuck-up fucking asshole.

Let people (and especially kids) enjoy things without your grating fucking elitist rhetoric being forcefully shoved up their ass all day long.

Thank you

don’t get sad, get even

BSD dynamics and songs again:
