So this arc is how Chuuya joined the Port Mafia.

I really liked this arc.

Really sad that this is the last episode of the flashbacks. Honest to god did not think Bones would animate Fifteen, but I was pleasantly surprised. Bones cut out some moments I wished would be included in the adaption, but overall, I am just happy Chuuya got some screentime :) I really love young Soukoku!

Bones needs to do a Soukoku OVA because that's where the coin is at!! ;)

Really love that we got to have three episodes of character development and exposition for the third season for Mori, Dazai, and Chuuya.

Although we part as I leave for Inaba,

I liked that flashback arc a lot, so thats how Chuuya entered in Port Mafia!

Was really cool to see Dazai and Chuuya in action, specially the fight against Randou!

yeah, it's called "Dazai, Chลซya, Fifteen Years Old" , there's only a summary of it in English though.

No. Only certain parts, which are from the prequel light novels. The rest is adapted from the manga, which is the main storyline.

Dazai is really a scheming and calculative guy. Can't believe Chuuya will be stabbed by his friends but he still protected them.

Cool episode, so that’s the background for Chuya, what he was doing and why he joined the Port Mafia, despite his real origin is such a mystery, trapped in someplace until Randou released him, maybe he’s an artificial ability user, maybe Mori indirectly created him, who knows. Having Randou’s hat is a good detail, is Dazai still using that coat nowadays?

I think it was in S2 when he said to Mori that he burned it. Not sure though if it’s true lol

I really loved this episode, the action sequences were amazing in my opinion and we got to see the events that led up to Chuuya joining the Port Mafia. It looks like this arc is over and we are going back to present day. I really enjoyed seeing the dynamic between Chuuya and Dazai.

And the flashback arc is over. Can't say I loved it nearly as much as I did last season, but it was nice. Hoping the next arc with the demon can get me hyped.

Randou or should I say Rimbaud was quite the strong fellow, too bad he faced 'The black duo'. It was interesting to see Chuuya's backstory and him interacting with young Dazai.

I love the backstory episodes especially the ones in season 3. Dazai is a lot more interesting in the backstories. Chuuya and Dazai have the most entertaining dynamic between any two characters in the series.

i've always wondered if the tidbit about chuuya being dazai's dog for life was the reason why back in season one he did that rich girl exit thing... in case y'all don't remember it was around episode 10 when dazai was captured by the port mafia

I have to say that I loved last season' first episodes and now I loved these too, some of the best backstory episodes I've watched.

Coincidentally, apart from being the beginning of each season, they also tell the story of how Dazai quit Port Mafia and how Chuuya joined Port Mafia respectivelly lol.

Starting to like Chuuya's character more. Also the new Port mafia leader is certainly an interesting character.

The fight against Rando was great, but damn what followed was even more shocking with Chuuya's friends betraying and trying to kill him following Chuuya finally joining the mafia, end of the backstory for Chuuya and Dazai at the mafia 7 years ago and it was definitely worth it

The cosmic horror is seeping in slowly.

I love Randou! Shame he died, he was super interesting!

Poor Chuuya. He's too loyal. He accepted the dog role for Mori very easily and doesn't think enough of his own agency or self-worth. He could have taken a better path if the Port Mafia hadn't gotten their hooks in him. I could even see his as a member of the ADA. He'd pass the test. Mori really swept in and played him like a fiddle. I can understand why he saw himself in Dazai.

Gosh Dazai's terrifying. I'm glad he didn't get his way.
He's treated Chuuya the same way he treated Akutagawa. I hope one day Atsushi and the rest of the ADA see his true colors. He's a hard character to figure out, like he just ~โœฐ decided to start caring โœฐ~ after Oda.

That was Q! I need more Port Mafia flashbacks!

It'd be funny but pathetic if Ango was Randou's spy partner for the west. That would make him a quadruple agent!

Well, that's how it ends. Good arc but disappointing how it was only 3 eps compared to last season's 4 episodes. Let's just hope this flashback arc doesn't turn out becoming the best thing of the season like season 2. As for the episode, it felt like 5 mins, I guess it's a result of how much I love Igarashi. But now, 7 episodes without him, going to be a pain.

Is there some sort of compulsive need for the characters to meticulously explain every intricacy of their ability in combat when questioned? Why would you do this if you actually intended on winning? Randou had no reason to explain it, and could've easily declined giving them any hints as to how his ability functioned.

The credits and ED constantly rolling when the content of the episode is still going is getting annoying. The music distracts your focus on the dialogue, as does the text covering the screen.

I think it's more for our knowledge than it is for theirs.

So this concludes the whole Chuuya and Dazai backstory and How Dazai became and executive and Chuuya a mafia member. The relationship Dazai and Chuuya have now makes even more sense and tbh its the most thought out relationship in the entire series and i love to see it. The guy they were fighting against was pretty op
