Easily the best anime of the season (wich may not say too much considering the other shows are just plain bad/mediocre). At least that's the conclusion i came to after this ep :).

A perfect episode.

A look into the school, a mysterious drop-out, the story of the girl, new characters.

Shizuo.

He's awesome. ^_^

Miyuki Sawashiro does the narration... is that true in ep. 1 as well (I don't remember)?


I didn't recognize her! Though, I did hear Kamiya Hiroshi. Kamiya Hiroshi using Koyomi voice. Lol, when he was playing Koyomi he was doing Zetsubou-sensei voice.

Amazing, I love it. The way the story is presented is awesome. This might just turn out to be the best of the season.

Best anime of the decade came early.

This was an awesome episode! I hope they keep it up!


This, so far this is amazing. First episode was intriguing, this one definitely clinched my interests and probably will be landing this anime in one of my best-of spots, provided they don't ruin this somehow. Which I'd like to hope not, seeing as they're moving in a wonderful direction with this.

I love Izaya, he's freakin' awesome. Slick little bastard, messing with people's heads. For what? Only because he felt like it. He goes through all that, just for kicks. Dullahan (the biker, I figure that's what they're aiming with the headless biker horsemen theme) is pretty awesome herself. I like her little touch phone too. :D

Easily my favorite anime this season. Can't wait for the next episode.

Man, they're really keeping the Baccano style, from the way they're doing the intros to the intersecting plot threads. I wonder how much of that is really fitting for the source material or if the studio is just forcing it.

Anyway, this was pretty exposition heavy. I mean, it was an interesting subject, but they didn't have to spell everything out so plain. Love Izaya as a character. That kind of emotion play is fascinating to me. Hopefully later episodes won't repeat quite so many scenes or at least give more meaning to their reshowing as the plot develops.

This episode also does a lot more to confirm the reality of the biker's powers. I was a bit iffy when the guy wasn't actually cut by the scythe in the first episode, but that netting had a very physical effect. Curious about the guy in the labcoat.

That was great. I'm really enjoying this series...I think one of the best (if not the best) of the season...at least right now. (I haven't checked out all of the shows this season but I'm looking at a good batch of them)

Btw, I find Anri pretty delicious.

I agree with you there...I really love her character design. If the anime world was real life I would instantly fall for her...

I'm loving this, no, I'm loving this lots. Sure the Baccano! style is running rampant all over, but I sure as hell ain't complaining. Love the atmosphere, love the setting, love the characters. Izaya shot right up in my books with his demented, whimsical attitude. We still have a few more characters to introduce but I reckon I'd like them all.

Oh, and is that Yozakura Quartet volume 1 I see in the preview? Walker and his gang seem to be a walking advertisement for all things related to Durarara!!

That ep was a slam freakin dunk.
My rating of the series before this ep was 7, but it was easily jacked up to a 10 for now.

Amazing. I poo'd myself.

Informant is my fave character now.

BEST SHOW OF 2010 RIGHT HERE BROTHERS.


edit: I hope you all realize that it is the same author as Baccano! and the same studio, so stop acting surprised. :|

I liked the way they dealt with suicide and how they tried to make Rio see the world at another point of view.
So, the storytelling is awsome, the characters the OP and Ed too, so how can I not like it?

ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT.

Miyuki Sawashiro <3
Orihara seems like a really interesting character, and I love the way they're now focusing on others. A lot more fun and Baccano-ish this way.

AND THE MUSIC. Such win.

I'm really liking this so far, this episode definitely had that Baccano vibe that I know and love but is still different xD I just never find it boring watching it, now I know it's 24 episodes I'm prepared for a nice treat :3
