In this scene, I really feel like Dazai sees himself in Atsushi. We don't know what Dazai was like before he was 14, so we don't really know his childhood. However I'm sure he also had that mentality and that's why the scene focus on Dazai's face because he understands it, he can understand that suffering, and he knows that it's worthless, and he gives Atsushi the very advice that he himself had to find alone.

When i first saw this the part when he says look at me and pulls Atsushis chin up I had to pause and I blushed like so much. FLABBERGASTED!

@lollipop_blover

The slap over looks the advice 😭

@DazaiOsamu_official

Dazai is a wise person at using his words, He use it like a poetry tbh, One of the reasons i love him so much. ❤

@candyflower-hs2oq

When I watched this scene I actually teared up since I can relate to Atsushi so much. I haven’t been through trauma like him but I have terrible thoughts like his everyday 😞

@ChuuyaIDK

Pretty sure he’s convincing him to lay on the train track so he’ll have some company

@lizeylunar

I have to mentally prepare myself every time i watch this scene

@minecraft_better

Nah that slap was personal☠️

@Laugh_Nation1

This anime doesnt get enough recognition.

@bhaktithakurr

one of the best scenes in the whole series 🔥🔥

@Jadegacharoblix365

Dazai is sure a wise person, though of his past. He really is changing, and being a better person.

This moment reminds me of when Gojo was giving Megumi advice the parallels are so good!! 
Both amazing mentor figures!
Despite the two being really strange they are two people who've gone through a lot!
