Wan! Chapter 36

Wan!'s Darker Era (わん! 黒の時代編,) is the 36th chapter of the Bungo Stray Dogs Wan! manga.

Summary
Set during the Dark Era, Dazai greets Oda and Ango at Bar Lupin. Ango relives their first encounter when they were dirty and smelled bad at his workplace, though Dazai finds it a splendid idea. He wonders if he preferred them to be smooth and have a floral scent, while Oda thinks he is referring to curry, much to Ango's rejection.

Dazai then ponders if he should make some curry, though Ango dissuades him knowing that he is a terrible cook. Dazai suggests they make it altogether, before recommending that they put in any sort of ingredient one by one into the pot, getting rejected by Ango once more.

Noticing Ango's camera, Dazai takes some photos of Oda, who keeps on moving every shutter click. Oda then points out the superstition of one's lifespan being taken every time someone's picture is taken, so Dazai asks Ango to take photos of him until he runs out of lifespan. Ango refuses to waste his film and rejects Dazai's request.

Dazai recommends Oda and Ango to taste his "new superhuman stamina pot", which he claims is a miraculous dish. In truth, it contains an assortment of deleterious ingredients, causing Ango to be taken aback and asks Oda to also retort.

As Dazai persuades them that it is delicious, Ango refuses to believe him and questions why Oda seemingly believes Dazai's words. Oda simply tells him that he trusts Dazai if he says that it is delicious. In the end, as Dazai and Ango continue bickering, Oda urges that they eat it someday.

Trivia

 * Dazai's "new superhuman stamina pot" is a direct reference to his dish mentioned in the light novel, namely the "superhuman stamina pot".
