Episode 9

Akutagawa-kun's
Errands

Dazai-san

It's D-Dazai-san!

Hello? It's me.

Akutagawa-kun?

Good, I finally got through.

There's something I wanted to ask you to do.

For you, Dazai-san,
I would jump off an airship.

It doesn't sound like a
joke when you say that.

Could you go shopping for me?

Don't worry. It's easy to find, even for you.

Dazai-san asked me to do something!

Dazai-san is counting on me!

Do you have a notepad handy?

First...

Notes

I shall complete this errand!

Even if it costs me everything I have!

Hey.

Akutagawa-senpai.

I didn't expect to run into you here.

Higuchi.

What's the note?

Is that a shopping list?

Why are you doing that, Senpai?

I'll do it for you.

You can go back.

Don't touch it!

These are my errands!

R-Right.

I'm sorry.

Errands?

Item 1: Toilet paper

Toilet
Paper

Double

Single

Single? Double?

What is that?

Are there no triples?

For bidets

For bidets?

Is Dazai-san a bidet man?

I must choose paper fit
for Dazai-san's buttocks.

Serious Business

Two Hours Later

All right, next.

Akutagawa.

I have no business with you, weretiger.

Begone immediately.

I have business here.

I don't have time to waste on you.

Savor your fortune and get out of my sight!

Fine, fine. I get it.

I get it. Jeez.

Yummy
Milk

Akutagawa completed his
errands with diligence.

I must choose the freshest milk.

Item 2: Milk

Yokohama Snacks

That other shop was cheaper.

I'll go back there.

Item 3: Snacks

There's a triple point bonus today.

Item 4: Drug Store

I got a membership card

under Dazai-san's name.

Don't do this.

And so...

He completed all of his errands.

Hello?

I-It's me. Akutagawa.

I've completed everything as instructed.

Thanks, man! You're awesome.

I only did what was expected.

Lastly, could you give that
stuff to Atsushi-kun?

They're supplies for the Agency.

Thanks!

Today's a disaster.

Damn it... It's all Akutagawa's fault.

Why do I have to deal with this?

There you are!

Akutagawa!

Wh-What the...?

What's up with all that stuff?

Weretiger...

I was looking for you!

Why did you wander off?!

I got out of your sight, like you wanted.

Wan!

Shorts

I like curry udon, but it's
my white shirt's mortal enemy.

I hear you're in a predicament, Atsushi-kun.

I'll take care of the curry udon!

Hey there! I'm Dazai Osamu!

Oh, you're right.

You're wearing a curry udon-colored coat.

So, may I have this bowl of curry udon?

Sure.

You're hungry, huh?

Thank you!

Wait, please, Dazai-san!

Please don't consume any curry
udon that the weretiger prepares!

I shall have it all, for your sake!

Your clothes would be in danger, too!

How'd you even get up to the window?

Do you have any idea what floor this is?

Yum.

Dazai-san!

Episode 10

The Mafia Member
Who Doesn't k*ll

They say fools and smoke share
an affinity for high places.

Hey! I heard that, Akutagawa!

He's getting a balloon.

They gave me one at the market,
but I let it get away.

Here you go.

I got it back.

See? An adorable tiger balloon.

Urgh

Rashoumon!

Dude!

Dude!

It ticked me off.

What are you, a short-tempered young'un?!

Aren't you?

Damn it.

You'd better be keeping
your promise not to k*ll.

If you break it, I'm never
going to challenge you.

That one doesn't count.

Damn that Akutagawa...

The balloon...

My tiger!

I mean...

What's he looking at?

Be careful.

He's so kind!

No, that must have been a whim.

A procession of ants.

This won't end well.

He's redirecting the
procession with sugar!

No, this must be a trap to lure
the ants into the ways of evil.

Sow plant seeds, water them, and raise them.

This ought to help the
insects in the future.

Something's not right.

He must be plotting to capture insects.

Suuuuck

A mosquito on my hand!

Very well.

Feed.

Akutagawa looks like he's
just given up on everything.

Come on, Akutagawa,

When they say, "wouldn't even k*ll an insect,"
it's just a figure of speech.

Beware
of Stalkers

Though, I guess it's all good if he's
going to be kind to insects ,as well.

Hey!

You're doing pretty well.

I bought some pork buns.

Kishiken

Here.

Have them.

I've kinda been doubting you.

I'm, uh...

Sorry.

Irk

Rashoumon!

Pig!

What's wrong with you?!

My ability acted
up on its own

I still can't trust you!

You aren't getting any of this.

Episode 11

Forming a Duo
With Him

The Serious
Part

Dazai-san...

is laying on the ground!

I want to become a marshmallow.

Dazai-san!

Preferably a s'more.

A marshmallow?!

What metaphor is this?

Am I not capable of making even the
slightest sense of his thought process?

Oh, it's you.

I'm trying to accomplish my dream right now.

Your dream?

A man of my fortitude eventually
longs to become a marshmallow.

I see.

See?

Aren't I starting to look
like a marshmallow?

See? Squeeeze.

Squeeeze.

I see it!

Yay!

You can become anything if you try!

What? No way!

Akutagawa, you dummy!

Humans don't turn into marshmallows!

That exchange made it clear...

that Atsushi-kun is far superior to you.

How was that exchange inferior
to one with the weretiger?!

You don't know how to take jabs!

Jabs?

It's a terrifying skill, granting
one the ability to control the room

in response to astute
situational decision-making.

And that's why I've brought
Atsushi-kun here.

Akutagawa!

I came here because I was
promised a sweet snack.

Oh, I was talking about me.

Hurk.

Wretched tiger rug,
unceasingly rude to Dazai-san...

I ought to dice him up now!

Hey! What was that for?!

You grazed me!

I'm practicing taking jabs.

That was more of a lethal stab than a jab!

Akutagawa-kun is practicing
taking jabs right now.

You're messing with him again, aren't you?

You're going to get in trouble
for wasting time again.

I'm not wasting time.

I'm dashing toward my goal.

Rashoumon!

Stop it! Jeez!

Use your words!

Coward.

I will not k*ll!

You're set on doing everything but k*lling.

When you take a jab,

you're supposed to slap someone
with your hand, and say, "Bruh!"

I'm going to try becoming a
toasted steam bun this time.

Like the Gunma specialty.

I'm getting toasty. Turn me over.

Yes, sir.

That's it.

Make sure you cook evenly.

Don't forget the miso sauce.

Bruh!

That's it!

I knew it!

Akutagawa-kun, the natural airhead,

and straight-man Atsushi-kun,
with the supreme jabs!

The two of you will win a
comedy contest together!

Hey, everyone!

I've been hooked on cooking lately.

I'm thinking of making you something, too.

Is there anything you want?

I have nothing to say to you.

We have to talk, or we
wouldn't be doing comedy!

C'mon, gimme a break!

Here's your break!

Ouch!

In fact, I made those two who they are now.

I see...

Bruh!
