Obviously Gaban would come to help with the monsters, he must have heard the announcement saying that they were attacking the school and the children and immediately ran out to help, after all, Ripley works there as a teacher and Collon is a child, he probably came to try to find the two to protect them.

WHAT ABOUT TEENAGE FUKUZAWA
I know where Ranpo gets it from.
While Gunko's not necessarily geeking out over Brook like we would have expected, in a way this is probably the closest a Celestial Dragon does get to being starstruck. If 'starstruck' means immediately wanting to kidnap the artist in question so that they cater to you and you alone.
We also saw Charlos attempt to do the same thing in Film Red. He liked Uta's music so much that he tried kidnapping her mid-concert to be his personal musician.
And what ended up happening there was Uta not only flat-out told him no because her music belongs to the world, but also put him on blast for being a scumbag before putting him in his place with her Sing Sing powers.
And that's what Brook does here too, with the added bonus that he's sticking by his captain, even to the point where he's willing to lay down his second life. Which is a huge deal for Brook since his dream is contingent upon him getting to reunite with Laboon.
While Gunko is the one who's giving a physical beatdown to Brook, look how she's clenching her chest as if her heart was breaking. And she then proceeds to stomp on Brook some more even after Sommers told her to leave the Strawhats alone.
You could write this off as her throwing a tantrum because she's not getting her way, like Celestial Dragons are wont to do when they're not given instant gratification, but I think there's more to it than just that. It reminds me of how upset Gunko got when Loki vehemently rejected being a God's Knight because they're scum.
Look at what it was Brook said: "I would sooner embrace death than live without honor"
Both Loki and now Brook seem to be confirming Gunko's inner doubts about being a God's Knight. She's getting continual proof that she's backing the wrong horse and the universe keeps sending her those signs no matter how fiercely she denies it.
The Strawhats themselves remark on how odd it is that a Celestial Dragon is a fan of Brook's music. Like those two things are incompatible.
And they kind of are because Brook's music, especially New World, is all about the wonders and adventures of piracy, breaking the status quo, and pursuing freedom as the sun shines down. Everything the Celestial Dragons are against.
And yet, what is Gunko's favorite song?
But what is it that Gunko is most afraid of?
Something doesn't add up.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE GREATEST DETECTIVE IN THE WORLD!! Hope you get all the candies, sweets and appreciation you deserve!!

Yeah we should’ve known something was wrong with Akutagawa after he said “I bare no grudge.”
Single most pettiest man in this entire series if he bares no ill will to the people who fucked with him.
Somethings amiss.
Bsd Chapter 121:
Dazai (hallucination) to Atsushi.
Dazai to Atsushi: Do you need things like “courage” or “hope” to overcome fear? No. You haven’t had those things from the start.
Dazai: You haven’t needed them. What you need to crush your fear, is a fear even greater.
Bsd Beast Chapter 4:
Beast Dazai to Beast Atsushi.
Beast Dazai: I do think you’re correct in saying that you’re a coward. Your former self was a fearful boy who would search for an escape route right in front of the enemy.
Beast Dazai: But ever since that day you’ve changed. Do you understand why that is?
Beast Dazai: It turns out that the best way to drown out your fear is with more fear.
I can't believe Asagiri confirmed that sskk invented romance
