This is an if-story for the neighboring novel, The Day I Transmigrated, I Got Punched by Chuuya.
It's a long story.
*
To cut a long story short, I transmigrated.
That's too short, so here's a little more: one day, I, an actor playing Chuuya Nakahara in a stage play, transmigrated.
More precisely, one day, I, an actor playing Chuuya Nakahara in a stage play, beat up Double Black on the very day I transmigrated.
Okay, here's the problem: how do I explain myself so I can avoid getting pummeled by Double Black, who's furious with embarrassment?
I'll play dumb.
It's not my face I'm wearing, but the slug's.
Ahem. I didn't call Chuuya by his nickname on purpose. I just wanted to try saying it, that's all. (Smiles)

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Dazai Osamu, and I'm a cosplayer who loves seeking the truth of life.
A few things to know before reading:
The protagonist's name is Dasein Osamu. It's written with the same characters as Dazai Osamu, and he's a thoroughly miserable Dazai-type creature.
The male lead is extremely miserable. (But, seriously, this really is a lighthearted story!)
For the Dazai-core Chuuya, his hair and eye colors follow the novel: auburn hair and brown eyes.
Pairing: Dazai-core Chuuya x Nakahara Chuuya (Double Black just got even weirder!)
Theme: Love is more than just binding yourself.
