Since Yosano is off-limits she won't be considered.
1. Dazai: it makes no narrative sense to make him join the Port Mafia again, when he left at his own accord. The reason he left and changed himself as a person was because of his promise to Oda and him getting back to the Mafia takes all the weight from that promise. We already have a BSD 15 manga that's about Dazai being in the Mafia and the skk shenanigans, we honestly don't need more. Mori seems like he wants Dazai back in the Mafia, in a keep your friends close and your enemies closer fashion. Dazai going back to the Mafia can be interesting, but it's not good for Dazai's character arc. (Still has a chance)
2. Atsushi: since he is the protagonist, it makes the most sense for him to get transferred. Just like how we saw the ins and outs of ADA, we get to see how the current Mafia works on the regular basis. It would be interesting to see his interactions with Mori. We definitely like SSKK team up, now they will be in the same team too (maybe that's why the last scene of S5 they are working together, the transfer already happened). I want Canon Atsushi and Chuuya to interact!!! Their dynamic in Wan gives me so much serotonin.
3. Kunikida: while he can be quite a good asset, his ideals are too important for him to actually do something against it for the PM. He is a bit like Oda in that respect, a Mafia member who won't kill.
4. Ranpo: doesn't have abilities but his smarts is what makes him stand out among the rest of the ADA. But the biggest value in him is that he is practically Fukuzawa's son, someone whom he cares for greatly. Making Ranpo transfer to PM would be a huge slap on the face for Fukuzawa.
5. Junichiro: is the most hinted to actually join the PM. He is also the only ADA member to openly say his abilities could suit the Mafia and he might transfer there if no one else does. It's clear he has quite the violent side to him and the instincts to kill. He could be an interesting addition to the PM, and it paves the way for Tanazaki's backstory. I also wonder if Naomi would join the PM too, or she would stay with the ADA opposing her brother or leave the agency to remain neutral.
6. Kenji: is a highly unlikely choice for the PM. He has a strong ability but his personality isn't simply suited for Mafia. Although it would be funny to watch Kenji change the Mafia's heart and have innocent fun.
7. Kyouka: another ex-mafia member. She is a good choice, as her ability is really strong and good for the mafia. But since she too left (kicked out); her going back doesn't add to her character. While it might seem like Kouyou can influence Mori to take Kyouka back, but she already has accepted that Kyouka should stay in the light and stay away from the Mafia lifestyle (Aku also wants Kyouka to be happy).
Maybe Asagiri pulls another card and makes Fukuzawa transfer so he can complete his old man Yaoi arc with Mori, who knows? (/j)
THESE two are going to be the DEATH OF ME-------WTH IN THE ROMEO AND JULIET ARE THEYYYYY???? And I even mentioned how they PARALLEL EACHOTHER? AHHHHHHHHHHH ASAGIRI-----
Sskk is one of the most emotional rivalries/ships I have ever seen. It is a relationship that actually hits the heart. Skk is iconic. Kyoukenji is cute. Fyolai is poetic. HiguGin is heartwarming. But sskk?
Sskk is deeper than all these dynamics. The more you get into it the more parallels you see, the more symbolism you see. The things they say to each other both stings at times and also makes you cry.
Akutagawa is both at his best and worst whenever he is around Atsushi. And the more the story goes on the less bitter he becomes.
Atsushi despises Akutagawa but he still works with him, because working with Akutagawa makes him more secure, feel as if someone's got his back.
"Don't worry, go you fool"
"That's why Dazai-san left you"
"Just the two of us?"
"Do we need more?"
Akutagawa and Atsushi support and help each other. They work as a team. Putting their differences apart
Because they are quite similar, looking for one thing; reassurance and praise
They have had difficult childhoods with no parental guidance and they grew up to be very different in terms of personality because of their unique circumstances.
All of these emotions. All of this pain in them. That keeps them separate but it also brings them together. Because that's the thing that they both understand. What's it like to have nothing. And they fight because they just want to be a part of something.
And maybe in one universe where Dazai never brought them together, they might be the best of friends like they were always supposed to.
It doesn't matter how their relationship is, soulmates will always find each other.
After all the only person Akutagawa has smiled at besides his sister-------is Atsushi
BSD characters as iconic Kardashian moments:

Dark era Dazai: why cuz Boss, just wants it in his schedule---

INTP: yes
INTJ: yes
ENFJ: don't ever jump off a cliff! Both of you!

INTJ: If I am not jumping off a cliff, I am pushing you in, because you are annoying the fuck out of me.
ENFJ:....
ENFJ: guys are you okay? We can work out the issues together by being vulnerable with eachother!
INTJ: *to INTP* do you want me to push him?
INTP: Yes, please.
Just felt like I haven't re-read TSH in a while. So I wondered if I could write a full blown essay (not really, more like a brief analysis) on the characters from TSH.
I might not even end up writing them but I would like to know which characters people are most interested in learning in-depth about.
There's so much to say about this story that no one can ever stop analysing it. If Donna took 10 years to complete it, there must be so much we can discuss about it!!!
I will try to write a detailed analysis when I have the time to re-read TSH (studying for exams, writing a book and reading "The Bell Jar" and "Pet Sematary" for the 1st time lol)
I hope this will inspire people to make more post abt TSH theories/analysis/thoughts (been tired with the regular mood boards and quotes)
(PS: "Looking Through The Male Gaze" for Camilla is about Richard's gaze, not Donna Tartt's)
What is your ideal life?

ESTJ: being able to shout at my incompetent subordinates without being called a menace
ENTJ: world domination
ISTP: live in an island with good internet connection

INTP: staying at home and not have responsibility for anything

*Chuuya fighting the bad guys*
Dazai, to the bad guys: do you see him? He's shining. He's the icon, the legend, the moment. My eyes sparkle and I can't stop staring at his beautiful blue eyes. Yes they are like the ocean----
Bad guys: can you stop talking?
Chuuya: yeah if you aren't gonna do nothing, then don't distract us
Dazai: ok 😊
After five minutes, Dazai: that was such a wonderful move, Chuuya. I can understand all your movements, I have studied them----
Bad guys: we are leaving cuz we are tired of all this simping
*time skip*
Mori: congrats for stopping the fight in record time
Chuuya: that bastard didn't even fight, he was so cringe those guys left!!!
Mori: yeah that's why I sent him to missions with you 🍵😊
Dazai: 😊
Chuuya: 😨
(PS: really sorry if any other got left out, I was writing these on top of my head so I don't know if there's more. Feel free to comment if you know any other siblings/sibling-ish dynamic I left out!)

Akutagawa using intimidation tactics on Atsushi because he doesn't know how to flirt: Jinko look at my eyes when I talk or else....
Atsushi: but, you are holding my wrist and pushed me into a corner, what do you want? I thought you agreed not to kill me
Akutagawa: if you don't want your sister to go missing, then let me take you to a restaurant
Atsushi: first of all, Kyouka would never get kidnapped by you and why a restaurant, are you trying to sell me drugs or something?
Akutagawa: why are you not understanding me?
Atsushi: what are you talking about? What is wrong with you?
Akutagawa: stay here, I have to ask Dazai-san for more pointers. If you run away, I will put handcuffs on you
Atsushi: ......
Atsushi: wait...I am the DETECTIVE HERE NOT YOU.
Meanwhile, Dazai watching this with binoculars: Dammit, Atsushi is even more air-headed than Chuuya. How can they not get such simple things? I should have given Akutagawa the dog collar already. It worked on Chuuya, surely it will work on Atsushi-
Chuuya, kicks his back: can you stop ruining kids eh, shitty mackerel?
*1:00 Am, Lupin Bar, Dark Era*
Dazai: are blind dates made for blind people?~
Oda:.......*stare*
Ango: of course not, Dazai. You know that already! It's for people who meet up without seeing or knowing each other
Dazai: is a group date considered an orgy?~
Oda:........*stare*
Ango: WTF. No. Why are you asking that? How much have you drunk?
Dazai: what about host clubs, are they a front for prosti---
Ango:-----not another word. What is wrong with you kid?
Oda:.........*stare*
Dazai: I thought I could ask you for romantic advice and some knowledge on the adult world~
Ango: these are not questions about romantic advice. Why are you asking us about it? And Oda are you gonna say anything or are you too drunk to?
Oda, dozing off:........
Dazai: I asked you two because you two are dating, right! Who else would I ask, except a couple in love~
Ango: WE ARE NOT DATING
Oda, opening his eyes:.........*stare*
Ango, massaging his temples: Oda don't stare at me like that and Dazai for the love of God stop laughing!!!!!
