Smartest Bungou Stray Dogs Characters
When I watched the show, I couldn't help but be amazed every time Ranpo uses his "super deduction". It felt like I was watching Death Note, especially when he solves crimes and then explains his deduction in detail. Other characters like Dazai and Fyodor may be more manipulative, but Ranpo is definitely a true genius.
Ranpo is so cool and the fact that he doesn't even have an ability but is highly respected because of his intelligence. He's really a genius.
Ranpo and Dazai really remind me of the duo Shiro and Sora. Ranpo is the logical genius, just like Shiro. And Dazai is the extraordinarily cunning one, who is smart, perceptive, observant, good at reading people's minds, and a master of manipulation and deception, and is usually the mastermind behind schemes, just like Sora. Overall, I think the logical genius of the two (Ranpo/Shiro) is the one with a higher IQ level, but they won't be able to beat the cunning one (Sora/Dazai).
I think Dazai and Fyodor are really similar. They are both super cunning and manipulative individuals who always go two steps ahead of their opponents, and hardly anyone could go up against them. In combination with their extremely powerful abilities, they are probably the two most dangerous and formidable characters in the series.
Dazai is extremely intelligent. His calculations and predictions were never wrong, as we have seen in the anime. This is a feat that even Chuuya himself knows. I think that kind of intelligence goes beyond Ranpo's ultra deduction. Dazai could even easily manipulate people into killing themselves for his own convenience, as seen in the manga.
There's a difference between the capacity to solve a case and pure intelligence. Ranpo can solve everything, but Fyodor is the smartest. He is very similar to Dazai, but I don't know, the fact that he cares less about others' lives makes him colder, and someone that thinks cold makes better choices than someone who is panicked.
I remember when Fyodor told Dazai they would meet again. And then they met again in the prison!
He rivals Dazai in smartness and is really cunning and unpredictable.
As expected, the boss of the Port Mafia is very cunning and manipulative. The whole event in the Dark Era was his plan, and he's also the one showing Atsushi the way to counter Lucy's ability. He and Dazai are similar in many ways.
He is reputed to be the wisest man in the world and the most powerful ability user. Everything seems to be included in his plan.
Really composed, collected, and wise. He also reads a lot.
Her ability alone is intelligence-based.
It didn't take him long to mix in with the crew. And he didn't freak out for long after he was told that he was the white tiger.
