The world of Andy

i wanna take a minute to appreciate osomatsu as a character here because he’s really interesting to me. it seems pretty clear that he views himself as a failure. he wastes all his time gambling and watching porn and being lazy because he just doesn’t want to face his inadequacies. in the episode where they were dealing with choro’s “self-awareness”, it was revealed that he had the least self-confidence out of all his brothers, and even though he’s supposed to be the “big brother”, he pretty much only uses this status as an excuse to tease and bully the others, showing he has a bit of an inferiority complex. 

in fact, it’s obvious he depends on them more than they ever depended on him. one of the earlier episodes had him trying to find a brother to hang out with, but finding that they all had something better to do on their own, which ended up with him feeling hurt and angry. maybe growing up as the leader of the group made that superior status part of his identity, and as his brothers got older and more autonomous, that leader position slipped away from oso, and he lost his primary source of self worth. and maybe that’s part of why he fears them leaving him behind, or finding a way up in life before he does.
