Ritsu and Shou swap! My favorite detail is that I changed Shou’s lighting blot into a spoon lol.

Funny thing is that I made this in church

i passed another chuuya cosplayer while i was shoveling my mouth full with a chocolate pretzel stick

BSD PSA - Chuuya’s Hat

I’ve been reading a lot of BSD fanfiction these past couple weeks and I need to get something off my chest. I see it a lot…in just about every fanfic I read, and it’s starting to wear me down. I have yet to read a fanfic that correctly identifies Chuuya’s hat. So here is the PSA:

Chuuya does not wear a fedora. I repeat, Chuuya’s hat is NOT a fedora.

Fedora’s are notable for the indentation on their crown, as shown in this image, with said indentation circled in red for educational purposes.

This indentation is not just notable on a fedora, it is a DEFINING characteristic. So when we look at a picture of Chuuya from BSD and see that the top of his hat is not indented, if anything, it is slightly convex (protruding up), we can say with certainty, that this is NOT a fedora:

If we look at the picture of IRL Chuuya Nakahara, from which BSD Chuuya’s hat is inspired, grainy as it is, we can also see here that the crown of the hat is similarly convex (hence, why illustrated Chuuya’s hat is designed that way). Once again, NOT a fedora.

So…what kind of hat does Chuuya wear you may wonder, dear fanfic writers that consistently miss-ID this iconic head wear, and other people reading this rant post? 

It is called a pork pie. 

Yes, you read that right, at this point in time, there are literally tens of thousands of BSD fanfics in existence that have missed the opportunity to have Dazai tease Chuuya for wearing a pork pie on his head. This particular hat is also iconic to this character shown below, which the interwebs tells me is named Walter White, because I am one of the 0.01% of the world that has not watched Breaking Bad.

Note the convex shape of the crown (fun fact: this is referred to as telescoping), as opposed to the fedora’s characteristic concave indentation shown in the first image. 

Why is this important? Well..it can be argued that it’s not. But if you are trying to be a good writer then good writer’s do their research in an effort to put forth the most realistic and accurate story. And if you are trying to characterize Chuuya in your fanfic as a hat aficionado, but he can’t tell the difference between a fedora and a pork pie…for readers that can…let’s just say, it’s irritating.

In conclusion, if you love Chuuya, please, please, please stop calling his hat a fedora. It is NOT A FEDORA. It is a pork pie.

Read more about the pork pie on the Wikipedia article here **Note that Chuuya’s pork pie is styled in the 1930s-1940s iteration of the hat**: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pork_pie_hat 

Thank you for reading. This has been a completely unnecessary and unasked for BSD PSA about Chuuya’s Hat. Happy fanfic writing/reading!

I swear I need to find a consistent art style. Anyway here’s the two losers trying (and failing) at trying to kiss for the first time lol
