Haha, I thought it was funny how Celty tried to stop Shizuo from going crazy and throwing the stuff at Izaya with those hand gestures. Aw, poor thing.

Ah, Shizuo, you're such a pacifist.

Very nice to know more about Shizuo, and the episode itself was quite funny. Next episode will probably be great too with developments on the main story.

Seeing Shizuo beating up people using signpost is pure awesomeness.Signpost,vending-machine,gangster,trash can,car,elephant slide....god knows what he will throw next :P

Izaya,you such a sick bastard,paying the truck driver some money for doing "good job" ramming Shizuo.
Who says it was on purpose.....Shizuo suddenly jumped out into the street out of nowhere and Izaya paid him so that he can shut up and tell no one (at least logically that's what I think).

Overall good ep. Who would've guessed that the strongest man on Earth would've had so many broken bones in the past?

but we really dont know what izaya's actual goal is. and what crime did he frame poor shizzy for?
but i still cant bring myself to hate izaya. he has a twisted personality, and i say, shizzy's pretty innocent he just cant help the way he is (that's messed up, but i think we all understand my point XD)
and izaya was nice to that chick in the previous episode, and also he and shinra seemed to get along well, he's pretty strong and has an interesting way of thinking, even if he does like to make people fear him.
he's too interesting for me to hate him. in fact i LOVE him XD
and i like shizzy too (DUH)

Can't get enough of this show. Switching narratives is always good. I love when there is no defined main character.
Shizuo didn't fail to impress me this episode. We get to see the really annoying and cruel side of Izaya...Well we already saw him kidnap somebody

And this time he said it as "Simon", not "Shimon", yay. XD

Ah, man, I hate Izaya more and more. *doesn't understand all love towards him and towards IzayaxShizuo* though, just like Shizu, I disliked him from the first look... XD
...And also, I like Shinra more and more XDD

Where in hell's name do I get the subs from? gg's isn't out yet and if they've released under some different tag then I have no clue what it is.


supposedly, most gg crew is going to be working on and releasing under "Ecliptic-BSS" tag. don't wait for gg, besides nothing really changed, maybe some slight differences in songs lyrics.


Thanks for the info. Though I went with [commie]. I'll get gg's later.

Anyways, excellent episode. I'll rewatch it again since I was a little distracted during the first run.
Izaya LOVES to be an asshole. Poor Shizuo, actually like he's being the one bullied. the highschool scene and their first meeting was cool.

Also, I think the relationship between the two brothers is adorable. Shizzy too has a soft side. <3
And LOL @ the bus scene where Izaya pays the driver for hitting shizuo.

Can't make a clear guess at the next episode though. Sounds like some actual action's coming up.

HAH. Anime posters...more importantly Baccano. I love how they do that..

And god damn Shizuo..broke practically every fucking bone in his body. Smart kid.

So much for the whole 'love at first sight.' I guess for Shizuo and Izaya, it was 'hate at first sight.'

Shizuo just owned the Power Rangers. Lovely.

Young Shinra and Shizu-chan in one episode. What a treat <3

I expected there to be more to the crime Shizuo was framed for, but from the looks of it I guess it was just another random thing Izaya did. I love & hate that bastard :3

I thought so too, it was great seeing how the three of them went to school together and more connections between the characters introduced so far.

I couldn't stand this episode. :/ When are they gonna skip the filler? I don't think I'll stick around to find out. What a shame, I was so pumped and hyped on this anime up to episode three. Dropping it pronto.

Edit: Okay, maybe not "filler". But I don't feel like the story is progressing at all.

With all the lots of central characters on the ground,this kind of character centered ep is needed of flesh out their background & relation with other cast.Heck even Izaya & Anri are the only cast that not yet have their ep centered on them.Durarara plot is ambiguous,from Celty head search,kidnappings,gang wars&human experimentation but all of them is interlinked with each other.So don't expect this show plot will linear like others anime,thats Ryougo Narita+Omori Takahiro style.

Haha, I don't think I'd mind an Izaya one. ;) But it's still annoying to me since the back stories don't bring anything new and exciting to the table.

though you'd have to say, it's great storytelling. You love the city first and those makes you love the characters even more. It's 26 eps so the studio has the luxury to make take it fine and slow unlike the ruckus (in the good way) that's Baccano!~

Hm. As much as I'd love to see ep solely given to Awesomaya, I'm afraid they won't do this. I mean, we saw lots of him in 2ep and his motives were partially given out. Same thing with cellphone stomping situation. Izaya showes up, unexpected, causes some ruckus and lurks back to the shadows. At least I wouldn't center action on him for a while, leaving this for later.
But again, studio is doing great job, and either way it probably be concluded just fine.

Shizuo gives a whole new meaning to "A History of Violence"

I'm sensing that Izaya is using Shizuo's hatred for him to his advantage to cause things..

Interesting that Shinra knows Izaya and Shizuo...

And the successive bones breaking was quite funn xD Gosh this has got to be my favorite episode yet in Durarara. (Well, not surprizing since shizuo is my favorite character and Izaya comes right after :D )

The bitter relationship between Izaya and Shizuo is wacky, like "Looney Tunes" wacky. Every single time they both meet and all hell breaks loose, I can't help but think of the Bugs Bunny cartoons where Elmer Fudd unsucessfully attempts to hunt him down. Only in the case of Durarara, Elmer doesn't use a gun and has apparently been on a LOT of steroids.

Izaya: "Eh, ...what's up bartender?"

Shizuo: "IZAYAAAAAA!!!"

*throws an oversized applaince and misses*

Izaya: "Missed me, now you gotta get me!"

Shizuo: "IZAAAYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"

Great we are the screaming Izayaaaaaa! Squad! Someone should open a club about this so every time it happens we record time and date from our location.....now that would be good to do. It's good people join on this. Personally I find it a good thing to get into the character of Shizuo.
