Don't quetsion the flowers. I just put them there because I found them while searching for other stock images/clipart and though that they were pretty. The title slide is pretty much just for funsies and not part of the mian animatic.

ONE

So the basic idea of this one is the bed is in greater focus. He's laying awake, his arm handing off the side, with a bottle of pills spilt out onto the floor (from a failed Dazai typcial su!c!de attempt) Some fireflies flutter up in the top right corner of the room, maybe by a small high up window. There's a nightsand on the right side. The gardient has nothing to do with colour pallet, I just wanted to make a gradient. Lol

TWO

The door stock image is a little fancy, but I couldn't find a regular door for some reason, idk. Pretty much, he's walking to the door, maybe Dazai's bandaged hand is reaching for the knob.

THREE

This one is arguably the most complicated. Yes, I know the detail is going crazy with this clipart (sarcastic). Here's the note I put, since it's too small. (He’s walking outside from inside. Going onto the lawn. Show him walking through the door. Show the side of the house with a window with curtains to indicate, maybe wood siding. Def show grass and fireflies hovering outside of door. He’s crying a little bit.)

FOUR

He's standing in the middle of a field surrounded by many fireflies, looking around in awe, still teary.

FIVE

Fairly simple. Somehow or another, he's in space (hey, it's artistic license). He's standing on top of Earth, and Earth is spinning underneath him. Starts blink/twinkle.

SIX

He's lying on his bed looking up at the ceiling. The fireflies have followed him inside somehow. They give the mostly dark room a soft glow. Maybe he's barely illuminated, or just his face has a glow on it. A firefly could land on his nose or the gem of his bolo tie, or maybe he's reaching his hand up a bit, and a firefly lands on it.

SEVEN

Fireflies surrounding Dazai and some landing on his shoulders and maybe his hair. (The arms on the clipart man are so messed up because the fireflies are on a white, not transparent background, but it's hard to tell because the slide is also white.)

EIGHT

He’s dancing kind of, no specific moves needed, just enough to give the impression. Maybe twirling, idk. Fireflies follow his movements, drifting up and down and side to side with him. They move a little before he does, appearing to guide him.

NINE

A kitsune jumping over Dazai's bed. I imagined it looking like the full fox form of him in that one Kitsune Mayoi card. (https://images.app.goo.gl/atvjvAELR2ec1eBv9)

TEN

He's lying under his bed, staring upwards. Maybe the fireflies are above, maybe they look as if they are trying to find him and guide him back to the light. Maybe not. Or maybe one or two are under the bed with him. Idk this scene is weird, I know.

ELEVEN

He's on his tippy toes reaching up towards a disco ball suspended from the ceiling by a noose.

TWLEVE

This scene again

THIRTEEN

This one again

FOURTEEN

Yay, a new scene after the repeats! It's the front door again from the inside view. It's cracked open, and there's light coming from within the house; fireflies fly out of the house and back into the night.

FIFTEEN

This scene to me is about his guilt. He's now sitting up in bed, and there's a thought bubble with the logo of the sheep.

SIXTEEN

Ofc it wouldn't be a true Dazai animatic without his bestie! Oda cameo, yay! Here he's standing over Oda's grave, not crying (because he's found the light, represented by the fireflies which surround him like an aura) but looking very sad. Although the slide is light, I imagine it to be either twilight or dawn in this scene. Or perhaps overcast.

SEVENTEEN

I don't think I need to explain this one very much lol. I couldn't find a way to show this with images, so I just wrote it out. Reminiscent of this scene (https://www.reddit.com/r/BungouStrayDogs/comments/u57xqv/what_does_this_scene_in_the_opening_symbolize/) But with Dazai and Oda instead of Dazai and Chuuya.

EIGHTEEN

He's getting dreams of the dead apple dragon and vampire chuuya.

NINETEEN

Zooms into his nightstand to show a jar glowing and full of 7 fireflies

TWENTY

Yup, this one is back again.

TWENTY ONE

And this one

TWENTY TWO

and this one again

TWNTY THREE (last one)

The differne between this one and the others like it are that in this last scene he finnaly falls asleep. Slowly the fireflies fade out.
