Why is Akutagawa Always Coughing in Bungo Stray Dogs?
He's always coughing because he's got a medical condition. Rashomon might be super powerful, but it’s not exactly a health tonic!

Akutagawa's constant coughing is a side effect of his powerful ability, Rashomon. Using it takes a toll on his body, making him sickly.
It’s not ever explicitly stated, but his coughing adds to his character's vulnerability and intensity. It's like a dramatic flair!
Honestly, it probably just emphasizes his tortured, edgy persona. He's a bad boy with a bad cough.
