When Atsushi tries to attack instead, Akutagawa condemns his bravery as "mundane". He threatens to bite off Atsushi's leg should he attempt escape. He summons Rashomon, explaining its functions to Atsushi. Putting the final nail in the coffin, he states that Atsushi's fate is to always harm those around him just by living and breathing. He switches gears once more when Atsushi questions the bounty he mentions and asks if that's why Tanizaki and Naomi were attacked.Īkutagawa confirms this, saying it's his fault the two got caught in the crossfire. He slaps her, scolding her for risking the bounty's life with her reckless shooting. Lecturing Atsushi on the fear of death, he introduces himself to Atsushi as a "humble dog of the Port Mafia", but loses his composure the second Higuchi insists that she can handle the task on her own. He attacks, leaving Tanizaki with a near-fatal injury. Later, Akutagawa arrives in the alley to Higuchi's aid when Tanizaki attempts to break her neck. He calls his superiors, saying he finished his task and asks what's next. Akutagawa walks away from the explosion with a vague smile on his face. Just as passerby tries to enter the station, a bomb in the suitcase goes off, killing her and others nearby. However, just as the police recognise his face, he uses Rashōmon to slaughter them. Meanwhile, Akutagawa arrives at the police station with a heavy suitcase, saying he found it. With his ability, made for murder, the Agency has no chance against him. Kunikida warns Atsushi of Akutagawa, describing him as one of the Port Mafia's attack dogs. In the battle, Kunikida outwits Akutagawa by electrocuting him with a broken water pipe and taser. Two years after Dazai joins the Armed Detective Agency, Akutagawa faces against Doppo Kunikida in an attack during the Agency's investigation of the Azure Apostle case. Not the least bit grateful, Akutagawa tries to kill him, desperate for Dazai's approval which Oda received so easily, forcing Oda to knock him unconscious. Later tasked with confronting Mimic, Akutagawa faces their leader André Gide, who nearly kills him until Oda saves his life. Much to Akutagawa's shock, Dazai claims Oda is much stronger than anyone in the room. Akutagawa recognizes the name as a man Dazai is friends with and questions why Dazai befriended such a weak man. To him, there's nothing wrong with killing subordinates who do their job - he isn't as righteous as Sakunosuke Oda. However, Dazai warns him the next time he fails, Dazai will punch him twice, and shoot him five times. Dazai 'apologizes' for giving the impression he wanted excuses and continues to berate his careless use of his ability.ĭazai coldly shoots him three times, but at the last second, Akutagawa develops his shield technique for the first time, saving his life. Akutagawa tries to argue, but Dazai punches him in the face hard enough to make him collapse and cough blood. Dazai ridicules his constant tendency to resort to killing instead of getting information on the enemy. During Port Mafia's war with Mimic, Akutagawa admits to killing captured soldiers. Nonetheless, Akutagawa rarely, if ever, actually changes the way he operates even when faced with Dazai's spartan training and punishments. Akutagawa suffers under Dazai's mentoring, constantly criticized for his lack of variety in using his ability and rash impulses.
