So the reason why Izaya kept on messing with people was because he "felt like it?"

The head didn't even activate. I was waiting for them. A little disappointing to me.

I'm pretty impress with the ending, but the last episode, eh wasn't that too much hype. Although a couple of answers are cleared but I just felt their are more stories in the series, and focuses way too much on Kida's past. Also several characters didn't have much character development in them. Oh well the second season is coming so I can't wait for that :D.

I'll give this an 8/10. At least Izaya was punished for making things chaotic for everyone XD. Everything is back too normal and Shinra is getting the hots on Celty's body XD. I started laughing when Simon says Shizuo-complex XD. Great ending for Kida and Saki riding on the train together. Would have been better if Mikado and Anri started dating. (But I think that's impossible since Saika forbids love.)

I enjoyed this anime but nothing spectacular, heard so many good things about it.. But I feel disapointed somehow. Izaya was the most fun character overall followed by shizuo.

I'll give it a 7/10. Hope the next season is better.

That punch ... well, Izaya was deserving it. :)) And Shizuo was so cool waiting for Horada in the highway.

Things got clarified and Izaya's chessboard got clean.

It was a nice ending. Second season should be interesting. :D

Yeah, this show wasn't as great as I thought it would be. I felt like dropping it a bunch of times but I kept telling myself that there were only 25 episodes. But this doesn't mean that I was torturing myself watching this show. I thought it was pretty good and very interesting. I really liked how everything was connected, especially when it came to concluding the arc for Celty's head. But I wish they would have gone further with that, especially with Izaya always talking about a huge war. The ending wasn't bad but I was really expecting more. Anyway, here's to a better season.

I also liked the characters, especially Celty and Shizuo. Also, Shinra + Celty was bizarre but also beautiful.

Show was pretty good but it's not something I'd be recommending anyone to watch. 8/10

Way too lighthearted for me. I should have stopped watching much earlier on, but I kept thinking "this will pick up and get deep, it's got to."

Sadly, it didn't. The clownish gang that couldn't even shoot a gun without crying like children, the other "gang" that are more like a youth group, the main bad guy that doesn't even do anything but stir up fights between children.

And in the end, the slut who just uses the MC says "I think I liked the other guy, I'm lonely now without him." Still the MC is too much of a pussy to do anything about it, still hanging around her as a friend hoping that one day she will magically do a 180 and start loving him.

Far, far too lighthearted.


i agree with what you said of the MC,i felt like he could be much more, in the middle of Celty arc he appeared to be a genius, but in the second arc its like he is there just to give support for others or receive life advises from "underworld" people.

This is probably in my 10 fav anime now. But what's up with the kids in love leaving school and running away? For such characters who speak in such philosophical contexts this seemed way too silly. But then again maybe it's perfect considering how romantic we find love to be when we're young.

My favorite aspect of this series were the characters by far. Unlike most anime where characters seem way over melodramatic, here they seem normal AND interesting at the same time because they have personalities.

This would be even more perfect if they put more comedy in and less supernatural.

Overall this was bretty gud. Show was at it's strongest till the start of the Saika arc (which was decent) and got rather lame and boring with the last arc. It slowed down the pace, pushed aside too many of the cool cats who were in the foreground of the series to focus on a trio of angsty teenagers who can't communicate worth a shit. I could never buy Horada as a villain, just an overglorified scrub who tried to over step his boundaries (love hearing Wataru Takagi do his classic "thug" voice though). Not much of a conclusion either, but I'll forgive that since we're getting plenty of content starting in a couple of weeks. Here's hoping the future arcs shape up well. Think I'll get into the manga too cuz why not.

Low 7/10

it's so awesome reading posts from '10 asking for a second season when 4 years later we have been granted 3 more seasons

Izaya, Shizuo, and Celty were the best out of this adaptation.

Though this 2nd half was so much crappier than the first due to the fact that I just kind of hate the middle school kids.I especially don't like Kida and his boring ass girlfriend.
This last arc was the worst and if it wasn't for Shizuo being so badass (and hilarious) it would have sucked even harder.

Meh, something is missing here. Story was ok, but slow and easy predictable.
Mikado was just annoying, from the type of his character to his voice. My god, his voice is one of most annoying i heard. Tho he was cool when he called that meeting. I thought he will turn serious face for rest of the season, boy was i wrong.
Izaya is one of the best villains i've ever seen. Pulling strings behind the scene... i just love when they show power of manipulation like this.

I hope season 2 will be better.

I liked the reference to Toradora. I guess the other ones they were talking about were also from some manga, but i dont know which are they.

Holy shit. What an anime.

They were driving a Pontiac Firebird (wow) which turned into a convertible XD Shizou is such a badass.

Celty at the end - instant nosebleed

Simon is so chill all the time! That moment when he lands a punch in Izayas face = Simon:1 Izaya:0 (get rekt) Gotta love that "LOVE" sign.

Lets see what second season offers us! 1st season: 10/10

Initial Reaction: WHY HAS NO ONE BESIDES SHIZUO SERIOUSLY TRIED TO KILL IZAYA YET?! I was so happy with Simon when he punched Izaya, good man. Gahd, I CAN'T STAND Izaya...

Okay, onto the anime itself. I really enjoyed the yellow scarves arc, I found it the most interesting by far. The rest of the arcs weren't as entertaining, though.

Soundtrack wasn't to my liking. It kinda ruined serious scenes when they had jazz-ish music playing in the background. Not all of the soundtrack was bad though, there were a couple good OSTs. Art and animation were average.

Overall I give it 6/10, this anime was pretty enjoyable. I'm gonna start the second season now, I hope Izaya gets stabbed in a few places.

Kyohei to the rescue! Without Erika and Walker of course, lol.
Lol, Shizuo with his sign post. Damn, dat throw. I guess you can let the cops handle Horada.

So Izaya vs Anri. This is war for the love of humans. But Izaya is too slippery; he can handle Shizuo one-on-one.
Nice punch, Simon! You truly are different when you're speaking Russian.

So Saki and Kida made up and disappeared together. Kida joined the Dollars as Bakyura. And Celty has a sexy outfit.
All's well that ends well. (^_^) Totally enjoyed this a lot!

Great final episode.
Nothing stands out too much, but the amount of characters and storylines combined with amazing execution just makes this fucking good. ヽ(゚Д゚)ノ
I'm doubting between 8/10 and 9/10, but I guess 9/10 for now because of its uniqueness.

As much as I love Izaya, Simon punching him was pretty funny, he did have it coming.

I loved Masaomi and Saki's emotional moment, it was so sweet Saki x Masaomi FTW.
Though Izaya seemed saddend when he was told that she left him for Masaomi.
I like that she started thinking for herself and found a middle ground where she still admires and cares about Izaya, but has stopped obeying him. That's why I like her character so much.


I loved how Celty seduced Shinra, wasn't expecting that.

The battler between Izaya and Anri was cool. I like how he pointed out that her " I can't love anyone, Saika loves for me" was bullcrap.

I wish Kasuka had more screen time in this season, I actually like him more than Shizuo. But Shizuo is awesome too don't get me wrong.

Funniest ending ever! XD Must start watching the second season!

Loved when Simon punched Izaya. Even though I love Izaya as well for being an asshole xD I can't imagine what would happen if Shizuo got his hands on Izaya, maybe he'd kill Izaya :o
Mikado is still in the friendzone though.

Beautiful final episode, I just love how everyone got involved!!! Something this anime does best.
Kadota and his crew were awesome, Celty+Shinra, Shizuo, etc... I rejoiced when Simon punched Izaya and told him that Saki called and that she gave him info on what Izaya's doing! And good ending for Kida and Saki! And glad that Ryugamine restored the Dollars chatroom, they remain, YES!

Can't forget the epic OST through the whole season!

Nice ending because everyone was happy in the end. I thought Masaomi died . But thank god,he didn't.

Well, overall this show was good but not excellent. I think it was outstanding and a masterpiece show till episode 15 or 16. After that it turn 'good'. This show could have been much better if Anri and Mikado's character could have been developed. Two of them are my hatred characters of this show.

Izaya Shizuo,Erika,Selty, Masaomi are fabulous..... So I give this show 8/10.

Exactly my thoughts.

It was an incredibly satisfying ending -- Shizuo properly fucking shit up like the legend he is, and Izaya getting his comeuppance (although he deserves a couple bullets in him as well). I liked the Masaomi arc, but I wass a bit disappointed with the Saki asspull though, it felt kind of sudden/rushed. Also props to Anri for trying to f**k Izaya up.

What a show.

I actually didn't think I would like this show because honestly I didn't think the first few episodes were very good. I was watching like one episode every two days. It wasn't something that I felt like I wanted to watch. But the last half was so good. I liked it a lot. Especially the last few episodes I loved. It's hard to rate this series since I didn't enjoy the start but really enjoyed the last half. I think I'll stick with a 8/10. I actually felt sad to see it ends which is a sign that I liked it haha.
