"Do you know why I joined the mafia? I was hoping there'd be something in it for me. If you place yourself somewhere close to raw emotions, where you're exposed to violence and death, instinct and desire, you can brush against man's true nature. I thought that way I could... I could find a reason to live somehow." "I always end up losing what I hold closest. It is a given that everything that is worth wanting will be lost the moment I obtain it." "You're right that people are all sinful and foolish. But isn't that what's so great?" "What should one do when one’s ideal is at odds with reality? People are always fighting to find the proper way to live. What do we fight for? How should we live? No one will ever tell you the answers to these questions. All we have is our right to feel lost, to dash recklessly through the depths of the gutter, like stray dogs splattered with mud." This man is absolutely not a 3, and it's especially obvious when you compare his motivations and behavior to Mori, someone with an actual 3 fix. Mori: "I have a question... Why do you want to die?" Dazai: "I have another. Do you really think there's any value in something like living?" He hides behind a mask, but Dazai's entire character is about feeling different, defective, lonely, and trying to fill the void inside himself by embracing his emotions and finding a reason to go on, because then it would mean his life has personal significance. He can't understand why he should keep on living without his existence having any meaning. He doesn't care about power, status or success - only about gaining a sense of identity and significance.
