Cheif Taneda: Good work with the Port Mafia, Mr Sakaguchi.
Ango: Thank you, sir.
Cheif Taneda: makes sure no ones around, quietly... Are you okay, Ango?
Ango: looks down.... He's gone... He's gone and it's all my fault. I know, I know I should've gotten close. It's the first damn rule but I...
Cheif Taneda: hugs him I know. There's nothing I can say that will erase that. But, what I can tell you is that the kid is gonna be okay.
Ango: He... He is?
Cheif Taneda: We'll need to sort some things out, but he's set to join the Armed Detective Agency.
Ango: Dazai's... Dazai's gonna be on the side that saves lives...
Cheif Taneda: Oh yes, he asked me himself. But for that I'll need his past covered up. And well I can't do such a thing as head of the Special Division...trials off with a smile
Ango: Heh... Leave it to me.

Why I don't like these two images :
Let me explain :
Chapter 58 is one of my favorites because Taneda's "murder" scene is one of the moments in the manga that I enjoy the most
And I hate how it's going to be staged in the anime
I'm only basing my opinion on two images, and maybe the day I'll see the episode I won't be disappointed, but for now I want to talk about the gaps between the anime and the manga.
///
So to begin with I hate the fact that in the anime they decided to add a chair.
That leaves us with two possible events :
> Taneda has just been stabbed by Sigma, and decides to sit on a chair afterwards. Ranpo comes
> Taneda is stabbed, Ranpo comes and decides to put Taneda on a chair
And this chair, according to me, destroys the whole angsty aspect of this scene.
Indeed in the manga, the first image we see is this :
A hand trying in vain to reach the door.
Taneda lies on the ground, completely bloody, and tries to move as he can with the little strength he has.
He is reduced to a maggot.
This was meant to show how cruel Sigma's act was.
No there is no chair to gently welcome Taneda, the only support Taneda could get was Ranpo and the wall.
Otherwise he would have died alone on the floor (like a shit)
In the manga, in order for Taneda to speak properly to Ranpo, he had to slide on the floor to lean his back against the wall, he's slumped, tired.
And here dying 😃
So yes, the fact that he fell from the chair gives a dramatic side, but why would an empty chair be planted in the middle of the room ?
The discussion between Sigma and Taneda was done standing up, as equals, at no point did Taneda sit down to talk to Sigma.
When Taneda was on the floor, in pain, Sigma's first action was to look at the camera without regard for the man underneath him.
Sigma wanted to kill the man, he failed, but it was still an act done in cold blood.
This scene was meant to show how much Sigma is willing to break the law in order to protect his casino, to show how ruthless he can be in a desperate situation.
///
Now let's talk about the second image :
So yes, when I first saw the image I thought it was beautiful, the symbolism behind it is wonderful, but in the meantime it makes no sense.
Who drew on the wall with blood ?
It couldn't have been there before the meeting, there's no way Taneda would decide to have a meeting in a room where a murder happened.
So you're telling me that Sigma deliberately took Taneda's blood and drew on the wall?
Yeah, it's a good imagery, but there's no way Sigma would do that.
1) he doesn't have the time
2) he's not a proud criminal.
The act of stabbing Taneda was not done for fun, it was done out of pure desperation. Sigma does not brag about his failed murder.
So yes it could be painting, but I would find it even more ridiculous.
Now the meaning of the illustration :
Here Ranpo gives the impression of being a saint, a saviour who came to help Taneda.
Eyes are hidden in the wings, reminding us of his ability to be almost omniscient thanks to his super intelligence.
He gives the feeling that he is "hope", which in fact is the case.
But in the manga, Ranpo was not calm and composed, he seemed distraught.
I counted the number of times his eyes opened : 9 times
In the manga, the one who was shining was Taneda, not Ranpo.
It's Taneda who has all the information about the Book and who kindly told Ranpo to shut the fuck up while Ranpo's first instinct was to call for help.
Taneda was ready to die right here, in order to give Ranpo all the necessary information.
Ranpo was not omniscient at that moment, he is an adult who just saw an authority figure close to Fukuzawa at death's door.
This scene was supposed to show the urgency of the situation, Ranpo's panic and Sigma's coldness (who also panics internally)
And if Taneda hadn't saved his strength to stay conscious, the rest of the manga could have been different.
It was Taneda's moment, which shows the impact and the importance that this man have (thanks to his ability, which I recall allows him to know the nature of an ability if it is activated near him)
///
I just needed to express my dissatisfaction ^^
I understand that in the anime they won't take 10 minutes to animate this scene, and that to mark the spirits they drew a cross on the wall and the wings + Taneda falling from his chair.
In the meantime I would have preferred something simpler, faithful to the manga.
Taneda laying of the floor half dead, and Ranpo worried.
Mostly what I like about the manga is that Taneda smiles in this situation, and I strongly hope they will do it in the anime otherwise I'll be severely disappointed 😁
That's it, that's the post ^^
