Listen. Ranpo wasn't born with an advantage. Ranpo's ability to understand cases rationale seems like an advantage, but actually it is not, because Ranpo is trying to hold on among the talented people with his brain, and he is fighting with people who have a gift in their hands. What happened like someone fighting against superior intelligence with their own analysis. A working person who makes the move with their ability to analyze against someone blessed with talent. Ranpo seems to have an advantage, but actually he also has disadvantages because there would be no world he can live if his learned talent gone. That's why I so want to see Ranpo and Fyodor talk. Imagine, there are people gifted with ability, Fyodor see this as unfair, a sint and argues with Ranpo, who isn't actually gifted but has a talent.
this afternoon i was thinking about bungĹ stray dogs as always and my thoughts were focused mainly on fyodor dostoevskij and his ability. so, here are some of my observations (if i'm mistaken, feel free to correct me! <3) (also sorry for the grammatical errors):
for those who didn't know, fyodor's ability is called âcrime and punishmentâ, and even if it isn't described or explained yet, in my opinion there is a high probability that it's connected to punishing people's wrongdoings. however, these wrongdoing/âcrimesâ are defined as such by fyodor's morality and by what he believes is right or wrong; he's practically a t3rr0rist, but him being convinced that he's taking action for the greater good/he's in the right, his ability doesn't punish him.
however, thinking about this made me realize something.
one of the most confusing scenes in âbungĹ stray dogs: dead appleâ is this one (cr: @/tortoise_anime on ig):
and i found this on fyodor's wiki page:
focus on the last part:
âanother hint towards the nature of his ability is that it didn't turn against him even when affected by shibusawa's mist. it even declared itself to be the "punishment" to fyodor's "crime" and said that they were closely linkedâ.
this would mean that fyodor commited an action which he considered a crime. but then, one could wonder: âwhat was the crime? and what was the punishment?â. i have a few ideas, i'm not sure if they are correct or not though.
fyodor's goal is to exterminate ability users, in his eyes they are âsinnersâ (this could be linked at his religion â maybe, as atsushi, he was traumatised because of his ability) who deserve to suffer and d1e. and him having himself an ability, makes fyodor himself a so-called âsinnerâ; therefore, what punishment would be the best for an ability user who hates abilities, if not to continue having one instead of being k1lled by it? (if fyodor di3d from his ability, he would stop suffering, so his âpenaltyâ can't be d3ath) (i'm talking about d3ath because this is what his ability causes, from what we've seen). or, his ability hasn't yet had an effect on him because to get rid of his suffering (= being an ability user) he must first fulfill his âmissionâ, which is to punish all ability users for god's sake, and consequently fyodor - if he succeeds in his plan - would be the last to d1e?
help said so it's confusing af and makes no sense, but at the same time it does?????? idk if y'all want, tell me your opinions or ask me questions !
btw i'm caught up with the bsd manga :)
âThe Enemy Of My Frenemyâ

I know the abilities are based off of novels theyâve written (The Grapes of Wrath) but some of them are listed as references on the wiki, such as Atsushiâs ability âBeast Beneath the Moonlightâ which is a reference to âThe Moon Over the Mountainâ or Lucy Maud Montgomeryâs âAnne of Abyssal Redâ which is a reference to Anne of Green Gables. Iâm confused about what that means?? Could you explain please? Thanks!!
I wondered that for a long time too, anon, and the fact that Atsushiâs ability is based on a reference to âThe Moon Over the Mountainâ rather than the title made it very difficult for me to find the short story at first. Iâll try and go through the abilities names and explain what I can:
Nakajima Atsushi: Beast Beneath the Moonlight, this ability name refers to the short story âThe Moon Over the Mountain,â also nicknamed âThe Tiger Poet,â and references the scene in the story where a man traveling through a mountain forest at night encounters his old friend who has now turned into a tiger and they talk most of the night about how his friend, an aspiring poet, has turned into a tiger and why he has suffered this fate. So the tiger is the âbest beneath the moonlight.â
Dazai Osamu: No Longer Human, book title
Kunikida Doppo: Doppo Poetry, the name of a collection of poems that was considered a landmark of new style poetry.
Tanizakai Junichirou: Light Snow, book title. This bookâs title in English has been changed to âThe Makioka Sisters.â
Edogawa Ranpo: Super Deduction, a reference to Ranpoâs detective novels and detective-type short stories (e.g. âThe Psychological Testâ does not feature his detective character Akechi Kogorou but it does have a plot that includes a lot of the detecitve-type analysis to deduce the crime and catch the criminal, though it is told from the criminalâs perspective rather than the detectives).Â
Miyazawa Kenji: Undefeated by the Rain, title of a poem.
Yosano Akiko: Thou Shalt Not Die, title of a poem.
Fukuzawa Yukichi: All Men Are Equal, reference to his essay entitled âAn Encouragement of Learningâ that begins with the statement, âHeaven, it is said, does not create one person above or below another. This signifies that when we are born from Heaven we are all equal and there is no innate distinction between high and low.â
Kyouka Izumi: Demon Snow, reference to the play âDemon Pondâ
Akutagawa Ryuunosuke: Rashoumon, short story title.
Nakahara Chuuya: For the Tainted Sorrow, title of a poem. And the words he chants to use Corruption are taken from the poem âSong of the Sheepâ second stanza.Â
Kajii Motojirou: Lemon, short story title.
Hirotsu Ryuurou: Falling Camellia, I have no idea where this ability name comes from to be honest. I do know that he wrote a novel entitled âThe Black Lizardâ which is where the name for the assault team comes from in BSD.
Mori Ougai: Vita Sexualis, book title.
Ozaki Kouyou: Golden Demon, play title.
Oda Sakunosuke: Flawless, book title.
Yumeno Kyuusaku (Q): Dogra Magra, book title.
Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald: The Great Fitzgerald, reference to the book The Great Gatsby
Lucy Maud Montgomery: Anne of the Abyssal Red: reference to the book Anne of Green Gables where the character Anne says things like, âRed hair is my life long sorrow,â and hates her red hair to the point of trying to dye it black, but it turns a horrid shade of green instead.Â
Margaret Mitchell: Gone with the Wind, book title.
Nathaniel Hawthorne: The Scarlet Letter, book title.
John Steinbeck: The Grapes of Wrath, book title.
Howard Phillips Lovecraft: The Great Old Ones, a reference to Lovecraftâs invented pantheon of god-like beings. You can look into these beings on the H.P. Lovecraft Wiki here.Â
Mark Twain: Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer, reference to his novels The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.Â
Louisa May Alcott: Little Women, book title.
Herman Melville: Moby-Dick, book title.
Edgar Allan Poe: The Black Cat in the Rue Morgue, a reference to two of his short stories âThe Black Catâ and âThe Murders in the Rue Morgueâ
Ango Sakaguchi: Discourse on Decadence, title of an essay.
Andre Gide: Strait is the Gate, book title.
Fyodor Dostoevsky: Crime and Punishment, book title.
And I think thatâs all? If I missed anyone then it was unintentional. I hope this can help clear up any questions about ability names and references, and if anyone knows where Hirotsuâs ability name comes from I would love for you to message me and let me know! Itâs been bugging me for the last two years! Thank you for the ask, anon! It was a lot of fun putting this together!
