Where and how does Otto Suwen store his savings?

An attempt to unravel the unlucky merchant's resourceful devices.

⸻

Where

The question of where is not one that leaves much to imagination, since the author has provided us with enough information.

First we have one of his dearest possessions: the carriage that has made his travels possible. That is, for sure, the first thing that comes to mind when seeking to answer this question. And it's not wrong.

A side story reveals that Otto keeps his savings under the floor of his carriage's wagon. Plus, in the Breaktime shorts, he states that the savings are hidden under the board that's in the middle of his carriage's driver seat.

As first mentioned in a Q&A session and further confirmed in the Breaktime shorts, Otto carries an additional amount of money inside his hat; to be precise, in the top part.

Now that the setup is done, let's move on to the true brainwork.

⸻

How

We do know where the savings are, and that should be enough to satisfy most curious minds. But not mine. I need to delve deeper, thus I present this hypothesis.

Since the carriage's workings are no mystery, let's focus on the remaining item.

Otto has removed the hat from his head a few times, yet the money never slips out of it. Of course, the coins are secured to the inside and not directly resting on Otto's head; that'd be very uncomfortable, in fact.

But how, exactly, does the secret compartment of the hat work?

Perhaps there is more to that green hat than meets the eye.

Proposition 1

Before we move on to the storage function of the hat, it is pertinent that we examine its composition, since this proposition may vary depending on the material the hat is made of.

At first glance, it seems reasonable to assume the hat has a rigid form, since it's never seen bending to external forces. Think about a top hat for comparison.

However, the answer we've taken for granted is brought into question due to a short, but (perhaps) insightful moment in the anime.

While this flattening could be attributed to excessive force, the same way a top hat would undergo deformation too if pressed hardly enough, the folds appear very smooth, like the ones in a folded piece of fabric.

Maybe the cause of this odd phenomenon is a difference between their world's physics and our world's physics.

The deformation persists when Otto picks it up, yet the hat regains its cylindrical shape right before Otto places it on his head anew, and so far we haven't seen this recur.

Or maybe it's a mere oversight from the animators that they did not intend to convey anything with. Either way, I shall overanalyze it.

It's necessary to bear this uncertainty in mind for this proposition; fortunately, to a certain extent, it can adapt to either of the two hat material possibilities.

To broach the main point:

The hat has a false top in the form of an ellipse, and this partition conceals the money.

Diagram below.

Revisiting the material issue:

If the hat is rigid, so should the false top. It is fixed in place inside the hat, and is inserted and removed by sliding it in once the coins are there.

If the hat is flexible, the false top should be so too; otherwise, it would slip out of the hat along with the money with ease. It is sewn or glued to the inside of the hat with a small opening to allow the insertion of coins.

Proposition 2

The second proposition is less reliant on the hat's material, and works with either option as well.

The hat is equipped wih a pouch or a similar receptacle, akin to the ones on Otto's belt, on the inner surface of the hat, where the money is stored.

Diagram below.

This hat was a gift to Otto from Oslo Suwen, his older brother. Oslo gave it to Otto when the latter set out to become an independent merchant.

Furthermore, Otto's grandfather, Yaktol Suwen, was a merchant as well and wore the exact same outfit as him.

Otto's hat matches the look of the traditional clothing of Piqtat, Otto's hometown, which is known as the Commercial City for very good reason.

Given that the Suwen lineage has been birthing merchants for several generations, it would not be strange for them to design this sort of utensils for their business, and it'd make sense for Oslo to give it to his younger brother who pursued the aforementioned profession.

⸻

In conclusion, Otto's hat is more complicated than I had imagined at first, and while the details pertaining to it might remain ambiguous until the author speaks, I hope I was able to shed some light on the matter.

#re:zero #otto suwen #re zero #rezero #origpost #I am very normal about Otto Suwen I swear #You'll probably know Otto's hometown as Picoutatte from other translations btw #I say Piqtat tho because I want to and there is no one to stop me #hope that helps #This turned way longer than I expected sorry about that. Nah actually not sorry

Okay so I had a brilliant Idea, I mashed my two favorite things together and this was the result

I came up with a Weird YP x Re: zero AU and did the designs for Brian and Kate

As you can see for Emilia!Kate She isn't wearing a skirt Like Emilia -

I thought about it and I was like "Well maybe Kate would wear shorts and have shorter sleeves if she was in a fantasy world, moving around and doing spells and stuff" sound logic right....?

And for Brian I just made his track suit blue and changed the initials

I wanted to draw out the scene where Emilia gives Subaru a lap pillow but instead with the lazy Brian and Kate designs I came up with

Then I also drew the Yandere Emilia scene with Kate aswell

I wanna do more stuff with the AU I made but at this time i have no idea!

❝ hold me close and hold me fast, the magic spell you cast. this is la vie en rose. ❞

Calming scents of sweetness and the ever so slight hint of gentle flora engulfed your senses wholly as you stood in a massive empty field, the sun high up in the sky with Reinhard holding you tightly in his embrace. It took every ounce of self control to not explode into a mirage of giggles whenever the man would hold you, the sheer tightness of your chest almost causing you to lose air. Millions upon millions of little butterflies sprang to life in the pit of your stomach as you felt Reinhard's grip around your waist tighten, his chin now comfortably resting on your shoulder, a happy grin on his face. You sighed deeply into his chest, his warmth and smell promoting you to simply melt into him, the desire of never letting him go was growing stronger and stronger. You felt his gloved hand toying with a stray lock of hair, his skilled fingers putting it back into place as he buried his face in your soft neck. Instincts took over and you let out a content sigh, your own grip becoming tighter than iron but Reinhard didn't mind.

His own chest fluttered but not for the same reasons.

Peaceful, tranquil moments like this were rare and the knight made sure to treasure them all. If he could, Reinhard van Astrea would take your very soul and hold it close to his heart, keeping it safe until the day he took his last breath.

He just wished he didn't have to trick you into falling for him.

The stench of blood came back to memory, the body of an old deadbeat lover of yours still remained fresh in Reinhard's mind as he recalled at how the man tried to fight back, the stench of alcohol reeking all over him as Reinhard skillfully avoided all of his attacks without a care in a world.

He was not a cruel man nor a sadist. He saw no point in prolonging this battle so he made sure to be swift. Pools of blood covered the knights feet as he stared at the man beneath him and watched as the final glimmers of life disappear from his sad eyes.

Reinhard had no regrets in killing the man if he was being completely honest. It was harsh and a part of him truly hoped that such a gruesome outcome could be avoided but he was desperate and running out of time.

The man wanted your hand in marriage and nothing else could really be done by then.

And here he stands, Reinhard van Astrea, a lovesick man who was ready to give himself wholly to you. The wind picked up and the little wild flowers on the field almost looked like they were dancing, comforting him and telling him not to worry.

Reinhard hated lying to you, he hated it with all his might.

But the thought of not being with you was something that he downright despised.

Top 5 Backstories in Anime/Manga

5. “Cushion of Grass” - Mushishi

“In this world, every person and place has a right to exist. It’s true for you, too. Nature itself allowed you to come back. The entire world as a whole is your home.”

Although Mushishi has a more "monster of the week" structure and isn't focused on developing fleshed out character arcs, the series still gives us two wonderful backstory episodes about our protagonist, Ginko. In "Cushion of Grass", an older mushi-shi comes across a young Ginko who's collapsed in the woods, surrounded by mushi. Ginko stays for a little while, but things take a turn for the worse when Ginko accidentally drops the egg of the unborn mountain lord, killing it.

While adult Ginko is a content and capable traveler and professional, child Ginko is a lonely outcast without a home or any place he can permanently stay, given he attracts mushi. It's even revealed that other mushi-shi would take advantage of him to attract mushi to different areas so he could get them jobs.

Ginko doesn't think someone like him belongs anywhere. And then he causes the death of the new mountain lord. But despite this, he's allowed to return to the world after getting pulled into the world of mushi. The man who had been looking after him tells him that, although he can't forgive him for what he did, he needs to remember that he belongs in this world. That every living thing has a right to exist, including him. The entire world is his home. This sets off Ginko's worldview we see throughout the series. He finds contentment in his lonely life of wandering and truly does seem to feel home wherever he is. He believes that humans and mushi both deserve to exist in the world.

"Cushion of Grass" is a beautifully written backstory, and the anime does an amazing job bringing it to life.

4. “Parent and Child” - Re:Zero

“‘I don’t love you.’ ‘I disown you.’ You are not… my son.’ I wished, you’d just say that to me, and throw me away. I wished, you’d give up on me.” - Natsuki Subaru

How Re:Zero fans watched this and still thought Subaru was just some whiny annoying protagonist who never learns his lessons is beyond me. In this, we truly see how much he has grown as he undergoes the Witch's trial in the Sanctuary.

Even with this series being full of truly tragic backstories, the story of Subaru's normal childhood still made me the most emotional.

Subaru is a very smart and talented kid with skills all around and a charismatic personality. He's good at school and sports and is very popular. His father is the same way, and he grows up constantly being compared to him. His identity ends up becoming wrapped up in the image of his father. Although this may seem harmless and although his father did nothing wrong, the constant comparisons give Subaru a highly idealized view of who he's supposed to be, and he eventually becomes incredibly burnt out by all the expectations placed on him to be as amazing as his father. He starts self-sabotaging, neglecting his studies and getting into trouble with the other kids. Eventually he stops going to school altogether and locks himself in his room all day.

Despite having people who care about him and growing up being praised, Subaru truly hates himself. He even admits he wishes his loving parents would beat him and get rid of him, because he thinks that's what he deserves. It feels devastating to him that someone as low as him would receive any form of love. He intentionally tries to make himself a lazy and worthless human being, hoping it will cause people to resent him the way he resents himself.

In the trial, he finally has to confront this aspect of himself and he does so with success.

3. Twilight’s backstory - Spy x Family

“I didn’t know anything. I never did. I didn’t know the real reason the war had started. I thought there wouldn’t be a war at all. I’d been convinced they’d all died in the bombing. I hated the enemy without knowing why. I picked up a gun without knowing why. I obeyed my country without knowing why. Ignorance isn’t bliss. Ignorance is weakness. Ignorance is a sin.” - Agent Twilight

Despite being a comedy manga, Spy x Family does not shy away from the horrors of war, especially when it gives us Agent Twilight’s backstory. The arc opens up on Twilight and his friends as children playing a game about war, and Twilight is by far the most into it. As we continue and see him talk about the political conflict and clash with his father, we find out he strongly glorifies war and demonizes the enemy, the country of Ostania. He’s been fed propaganda against the enemy, even to the point where he and all the children believe the Ostanians are literal monsters. But then a war completely breaks out and steals everything from him. His town is bombed, and then the town he and his mother escape to. His mother is killed in the second bombing and he becomes a homeless war orphan. When he’s older he joins the military, determined to crush the enemy. He becomes a very capable and destructive soldier.

His life changes after meeting his now friend Frankie, an enemy soldier who thinks the war is stupid and pointless. He’s disillusioned when Frankie tells him that the Ostanian’s were fed the exact same propaganda as the Westalian’s on Twilight’s side, and that both sides are just human beings fighting a pointless war. He realizes he’s been living a life of ignorance. This is how he becomes a spy and vows to prevent another war from every happening again.

Overall, this arc is one of my favorite pieces of anti-war media I’ve seen. It depicts how dangerous and evil propaganda and ignorance is, and how it turns people against each other only to feed a political agenda. The panels depicting the aftermath of the bombings are truly chilling, and Endo doesn’t sanitize how horrible the war is, even if this is normally just supposed to be a funny manga.

2. “A World Unbent” - Natsume Yuujinchou

“If I keep going, I might find out how to get rid of this thing. Without it, I won’t have to feel so irritated. I might be able to be a nicer person. Even to my family…” - Natori

“Maybe things look distorted because you try to see through these useless things.” - Matoba

The episode that solidified Natori Shuuichi as the best character in NatsuYuu for me. This backstory depicts Natori’s introduction to the world of exorcism. The plot itself is simple enough, but it’s such a beautiful character study of the character who's sadly received too much undue hate from the fandom. We see the big contrast between present day Natori and teenage Natori watching this. The former is friendly and charming and the latter is standoffish and irritable. It truly gives us a look into his inner turmoil and psyche that we don’t get to see as often in the present day.

Natori as a teen is shown to be very detached from people and surroundings, and he describes his world as “wavering”. He meets teenage Matoba, who is sure of himself and confident and never wavers. Natori immediately finds himself unable to deal with Matoba despite him being his first peer to share his abilities. He resists his assistance, fearing his accomplishments will mean nothing if they come with the help of someone more capable. We see that Natori is desperate to become strong and good enough by himself.

Contrary to how he acts present day, we see that Natori has a very low and fragile view of himself, even feeling that he’s a bad guy. He's an outcast both at home and at school, and has no one he can lean on. He's enticed to the world of exorcism, especially after meeting Takuma, who treats him with kindness. He wants to become a stronger person who helps people, and he looks for this in the exorcist community. He also hopes to one day find a way to get rid of the ominous lizard youkai that crawls around on his body. If he gets rid of it, he wonders if this will let him become a kinder person.

While present day Natori is someone who does not wear his heart on his sleeve, "A World Unbent" allows us to see deeper into him and his character in complete vulnerability. There's a beautiful aching to the narration of this episode which rivals the rest of a series full of beautiful aching narration. It makes it clear how deeply Natori is hurting, and how much he's longing to find something he can cling to in life and how much he yearns to be a kind person. It's just overall a beautiful backstory episode that provides so much depth to an already well written character.

1. “Dark Era” - Bungo Stray Dogs

“I joined the mafia because of an expectation I had. I thought if I was close to death and violence—close to people giving into their urges and desires, then I would be able to see the inner nature of humankind up close. I thought if I did that… I would be able to find something—a reason to live.” - Dazai

“Be on the side that saves people… if both sides are the same, choose to become a good person. Save the weak, protect the orphaned. You might not see a great difference between right and wrong, but… saving others is something just a bit more wonderful.” - Oda

Are my NatsuYuu followers surprised I ranked something even above "A World Unbent"? Long before I even watched the series my brother told me that this was the best backstory he’d ever seen. He was right. Dark Era follows the last few living days of Osamu Dazai’s friend Oda Sakunosuke, a character not introduced until this arc. Despite being best friends with the violent Port Mafia executive Dazai, Oda is a low ranking member who doesn’t kill people. His reason for not killing is that he wants to become a writer. A person who takes lives has no right to write about them. However, after getting caught in the plot of a foreign ex-military group whose boss desires the perfect person to kill him in battle, he’s driven to violently eradicate the group after they kill the orphans he’s been providing for.

Although he still has his goofy moments, we get to see how terrifying and dark Dazai was as a Port Mafia executive, ordering executions and beating and threatening his then subordinate, Akutagawa. Pointing a gun at Akutagawa’s head, he contrasts himself with Oda, a man who protects orphans and doesn’t kill people, saying the light of righteousness is not on his side. We see him at the very end of his mafia career, as Oda’s death drives him to leave.

Before he leaves to fight the group, Oda hears from Dazai that the reason he joined the mafia was because he wanted to be close to the violence and bloodshed and people giving in to human desires, hoping in it he’d find some meaning in living. While he’s dying, Oda tells Dazai he’ll never find that and he’ll never be able to fill the dark lonely hole inside of him. But he goes on to say that if neither a life of helping or a life of killing will be able to bring meaning to his existence, he should choose to become a better person and live his life saving people. That’s a more beautiful way to live.

Dazai follows his dying friend’s advice and leaves the violent Port Mafia to eventually join the Armed Detective Agency where he works now. Oda’s words were a beautiful way to approach someone as nihilistic as Dazai who saw no meaning in life and abandoned ideas of what’s good or evil. If there’s no meaning in a life of killing or a life of saving, it’s more beautiful to choose the side that saves people. Dazai's nihilistic worldview isn't argued with or challenged. Oda never tries to convince him that there will be meaning in his life if he keeps searching for it. Instead, he reminds him that beauty and good can exist in life, even if it is meaningless. Good and kindhearted Oda deeply cares for Dazai despite his friend's darkness and lack of morality, and in the end he's able to find the right thing to tell him that makes him change his lifestyle to become a better person.

Dark Era, in my opinion, is the masterpiece of Bungo Stray Dogs and is a beautiful story all on its own.
