Also beast was named beast because in the main universe it is said that dazai is something"unearthly" or "demon prodigy" so in this universe he is accepting that side of his hence the name beast.

This is a weird question but in school I need to read 5 short stories and write small review entries about said stories. I was wondering how many short stories do you know? Sorry if this is worded weirdly, I didn't know how to type out my thoughts. Thank you and hopefully you understand what I mean.
^Sakaguchi Ango writing^ (This picture is probably how we all feel writing assignments for school that require multiple references)
I know a lot of short stories by the Japanese BSD authors. I’ll include a list of some of my favorites and some links (because a lot of the books are expensive and out of print):
“The Moon Over the Mountain” by Nakajima Atsushi: link
“Run, Melos!” by Dazai Osamu: link
“Meat and Potatoes” by Kunikida Doppo: link
“The Self-Made Man” by Kunikida Doppo: link
“The Human Chair” by Edogawa Ranpo: link (starts on PDF page 14)
“The Psychological Test” by Edogawa Ranpo: link (starts on PDF page 37)
“Night on the Galactic Railroad” by Miyazawa Kenji: link
“Rashoumon” by Akutagawa Ryuunosuke: link (download the PDF)
“The Dancing Girl” by Mori Ogai: link
“Lemon” by Kajii Motojiro: link
“The State of the Times” by Oda Sakunosuke: link
“In the Forest, Under Cherries in Full Bloom” by Sakaguchi Ango: link
These are just some of my favorites that are also great examples of Japanese short stories. All the links come from the BSD Recommended Reading List, and there are a lot more short stories in this list, so feel free to browse and see if there are any that you would like to use.
If you want to have more Western authors then you can use the following sites for Western BSD authors:
Edgar Allen Poe
H.P. Lovecraft
Franz Kafka
And this website has links to short stories by a variety of authors like Anton Chekhov, Mark Twain, Herman Melville, and Ray Bradbury: bookbub.com
I hope that this can be helpful with your assignment! If you’re like me and you want to read shorter stories that have a lot of meaning in them then I would start with “The Moon Over the Mountain,” “Rashoumon,” “Lemon,” and “Run, Melos!” Those stories are also studied in Japanese schools, if that helps you know what stories to choose. But if you don’t care what length then any of them will do. It would be fun to write about “The Human Chair” because it’s more of a mystery/horror story, or “The Psychological Test.” But really just find five short stories that resonate with you and go with it!
Good luck, and I’m happy to help if you have any more questions!
It was never just a phase
GAME TIME
Spot The Difference
Why.
Emma died thinking Draken didn't love her back.
Izana wanted to shape Mikey into Shinichiro but he ended up shaping Mikey into himself.
Kakucho lost his beloved people twice-his parents and Izana-and both times, he was the only one who survived.
Izana doesn't have a grave because he has no family and relatives. Kakucho probably doesn't know where Izana REALLY is buried.
Mikey and Kazutora end up destroying something they loved the most.
Ryusei had to watch Kojiro getting physically and domestically abused and unable to do anything.
Baji stabbed himself because he didn't want Kazutora to blame himself and Mikey to kill Kazutora but forgive him.
In the manga, Izana's last words were "I'm beyond saving, huh?" but in the anime his last word was "Emma.."
Money in Japan is "Okane" but is heard as "Akane". Hence, everytime Koko mentions money, it feels like he's mentioning Akane. "I've always lived for MONEY" he said. But it sounded as "I've always lived for Akane."
Kazutora was having breakdowns in the juvie. He would be screaming, sweating and trembling while completely zoning out and disconnected from reality.
Even if Kazutora shifted blame to Mikey, he was still feeling horrible guilt.
Draken told Kazutora that he was one of his, still part of his crew, but then we see Draken saying that he wanted to kill Kazutora.
Kazutora's hair went white because of the stress and trauma in juvie, that's why he dyed his hair blonde.
Was it all worth it?

Personally kageyama tobio (haikyuu) in the middle school but I think you'd also like his redemption arc
