The first thing any normal, sane person in the Ikebukuro district of Tokyo will tell you when you mention Shizuo's name is "If you see that guy, run. Don't look him in the eye, don't talk to him, don't talk loudly around him --just run." And they're right, Heiwajima Shizuo is bad news. Dubbed, quite appropriately, the strongest man in Ikebukuro, Shizuo has strength like you won't even imagine. He can catapult vending machines miles away, literally punch a guy right out of his clothes and to the other end of the street, and rip signboards out of their cement foundation like one would pluck a flower. The weirdest thing? He is 100%, no-mistake-about-it, human. His biological composition is just like that of everyone else in the series, but there is one very important factor that makes that huge difference in power
( ... )
So, after that day, it started: his violent, shitty childhood. With lifeless eyes, Shizuo -- who was only in the third-grade at that time -- endured everything. Was it painful? Fuck yes, but he never complained --simply accepting it as a physical manifestation of his anger. It wasn't long before Shizuo was thrown into a vicious cycle. Violence brought him pain, pain brought him frustration, frustration led to anger, anger lead to violence - and so on. Violence - as much as he despises it - is a natural impulse to him. The brain, overcome by fury, would scream commands at the body to exhaust the environment and achieve one particular goal - destruction. (Destroy that bastard, destroy everything around you, kill him, crush him, tear his limbs.) It wasn't long before the young Shizuo succumbed to the impulse. Well, actually, it wouldn't be wrong to say he barely even tried resisting to begin with. He had a choice: Brave the beast within --through grinding teeth and trembling, bloody, clenched fists-- or simply detach himself, remove
( ... )
Imagine, then, how he felt when he passed by her shop one day --to find his favourite shopkeeper being bullied by a group of mobsters. Anyone would be pissed. She was such a nice lady. Who the hell did those mobsters think they were?! Of course, if this was enough to ruffle the feathers of a regular person, then there was no telling what Shizuo's reaction would be. A snap of the lollipop he was holding, a stomp as it cracked into a million shards under his foot, and everything went blank. There were no more coherent thoughts in that child's head; only a messy stream of 'killDESTROYkillSLASHkillCRUSHkillNOMERCY'. The body moves before the conscious mind can stop it; and when Shizuo finally came back to reality, he was standing amid the warzone he crafted with his own hands. There were bodies piled up around him, and he recognises one of them by her pretty apron and soft, closed eyes.
Shit, he screwed up.Shizuo couldn't look that woman in the eye after that. Who could? What he had inflicted on her and her store was far more severe
( ... )
Heiwajima Shizuo is violence: clothed up, and encased in a deceptively lean and elegant human form. He punches, he kicks, he crushes, he throws; and for what reason? Just letting off some steam, of course. There is no planning, no premeditation; just raw, unleashed fury and a superhuman body that acts upon it. Shizuo has an impossibly short fuse and berserk buttons situated all over the damn place. When someone is lucky enough to hit one of them, they're really in for something. It all looks calm enough at first. There are no warnings with Shizuo, you see. He'll gently remove the cigarette from his mouth, then snap it in two and crush it under his foot. This is your cue to run the fuck away; it's a tic of his that only surfaces when he's angry. After that, it all goes to hell. He doesn't think anymore, --not coherently, anyway-- the only thing going through his mind is violence, and the many different ways he can inflict it. The many words and death threats bubble and gurgle with great intensity inside his mind, ready to bust right
( ... )
Ironically enough, Shizuo hates violence. It's completely true. Shizuo --the real, conscious Heiwajima Shizuo-- is a peaceful man. He is quiet and reserved, preferring to simply tag along and let Tanaka Tom do all the talking whenever they're on a job. The reason for this is that he simply doesn't want to get involved with people. He knows all too well, after years of living with his anger issues, what happens when he does. The more people he gets involved with, the more susceptible he is to any annoying trait they may have --be it talking too much, obnoxiousness-- and the higher the chances of him flipping a shit and throwing something heavy at them. It doesn't even have to be a trait that they themselves have, it could be an annoyance in the surrounding. He knows all too well how unpredictable he is, and how the situation is so very far from his control - so he's afraid. He's afraid to screw up, to finally kill somebody, and live with that guilt on his conscience. Perhaps he lives with so much fear, that you could call him the
( ... )
While others crave for excitement, Shizuo wants nothing more than a normal life. He wants to just get a job, earn money and live like everybody else. That is why the simple things that most take for granted are so special to him: like the thought of having a kouhai, for example. When Vorona joined the debt-collection company Shizuo was under, Shizuo treated her very well: buying her a cup of coffee and handing it to her with a truly, happy smile on his face. Can you blame him? With his constant job-hopping back then, it was the first time he ever had a kouhai. Not only was it indication that Shizuo had successfully managed to stick with the same job for a long period of time, but it was also an experience most normal people had that he didn't so far --a step toward normalcy, even. A normal life is the thing Shizuo wants more than anything else, after all. That is why he's slowly strengthening himself mentally, until the day when he is finally able to control that violent streak
