Seriously, people, use spoiler tags?
Don't just go wild and assume stuff, you might spoil it for others.

we should have anti-fag association for those who fail to spoiler tag

Why would you go into a thread called Durarara!! Episode 10 discussion before having watched the actual episode? And then complain about being spoiled. What did you think we're here to talk about something else?

Use common sense people.

Anyone who complains about spoilers for this specific episode, take heed of my words: This is a discussion for what just happened in the episode. If you don't want to get spoiled, watch the bloody episode before you come in here.

As for the episode itself, I did not expect Mikado to be the Dollars creator. For some god only knows reason I thought it was Simon...

Thank you, my words exactly. Atleast one person here is smart.

And for people who couldn't put the pieces of mikado being the creator of dollars from the end of this episode, from reading the context in the situation, I pity you.

Mikado = super suspicious Dollars leader, eh? He doesn't give off that "secretly total gangster" aura. Even in his monologues, he's totally passive! Well, I suppose the next episodes will be interesting then.

Also, Celty is a beast. That kick was awesome.

And why is it that every time Izaya is on screen, he manages to do something that makes my love for him grow ^ 10?

Okay, I think Mikado is more than part of the dollars. I mean, he clearly said:

And I am dead serious when I say this is the ONLY anime in which I like EVERY single character. Izaya and Shizuo are enemies, yet we all love them both.
Celty is amazing. So is Shinra. Mikado and Kida and Anri rock. They are all just amazing!


And damn, they totally left us hanging with Mikado's close confession.
"I..." Ending theme. lol.

( i lied, i also wanted to comment on izaya's magical motorbike. )

Awesome episode!! Is it just me, or was Mikado's password at the end there "baccano"? XD


I noticed that too!
It made my day. :)
The password for the Dollars' website has been baccano all along. Since episode 5 or 6 I think, the first time they showed us the site.

Mikado is going all epic win in this episode and the developments were fantastic and incredibly well executed. All the scenes and characters interactions were just huge too. This was clearly the best episode of the season we just saw. I think Ohmori/Brains Base have found the right formula to the perfect Baccano-styled anime (which was poorly executed and too messy to be called a great show) now.

In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same.

i pretty sure they're talking about Index not Railgun. Misaka is in both but Himegami is not in Railgun.

i did unfortunately read a spoiler several weeks ago, but it made it no less enjoyable.

and as we have all said, Izaya is just plain awesome. i want to see a complete fight between him and Shizuo at some point soon.

Ah, I got into the same situation, but it's as you said ;) Mikado is now in badassery mode! Here comes the main stuff now :P Celty was awesome with her kick, and Izaya was hilarious jumping on that guy (literally) and imitating a motorbike. xD

Can't wait to see the next ep. :P

That's kind of a pointless remark, considering both animes are created by the same studios. Anyplex & Brains Base.

So is anyone else thinking that Kida has some connection to this battle between the yellow scarves and blue squares?

It's really beggining to develop a exciting and twisted plot, and it's heading towards a really weird but awsome series. I simply just loved mikado and izaya in this !

On the other hand of thinking that this episode was just brilliant with amazing twist, I started to get worried. This is fast. Way too fast. This is not even a middle of the episode, yet some of the major twists are already out. I can't believe they will going to have 14 more episodes for everything. I just try to force myself on thinking that there will be something big beside all of this, (like Shinra Mystery,Izaya past, Russian Sushi + Simon, and some mysterious American company) but... this is just... rushed.

Besides that, brilliant. Izaya is my idol now. Plus, my guess was right... Mikado WAS the leader of dollars... xD

I know! You have such a good point! The thing is, I reallyyyy wish ( as do other people im sure) that Durarara could go past these 24 episodes of epicness and be the start of a new popular on-going anime. But, it probably won't happen :(

That's pretty much expecting this anime to be another naruto/bleach/dragon ball/d-grey mand, which I don't really appreciate.

You don't appreciate the idea of Durarara being longer? Or you don't appreciate the animes you just listed?

I absolutely loved Mikado in this episode, he's showing his true colors. Selty punching that girl's boyfriend in the face and Izaya jumping on him was hilarious~ Kida was as cute as always. Also, did anyone catch the password being "baccano" when Mikado was typing something in his computer? I thought that was pretty cool, idk why. P:

Overall, really good episode and I can't wait for next week!

I don't want Drrr to be long. 24 episodes are the best for it;I don't think it will able to sustain from keeping mystery and twist if it will become endless shonen series. It has a large cast, but still limited. So, they will have to feed even more characters to make it longer, which means death of the anime.

Anyway, I was very impressed about direction overall in this episode. I like how all three Kanra, Tanaka Tauro, Setton-san finally met in one place... The only thing I concern is a contents for next 14 episodes.

Damn. You got me there. I do not want death, and if the series becomes longer,
fillers will come and people won't appreciate Durarara as much.

If the anime goes on for too long, people will start to get bored with it. If it ends after 12-24 episodes, then peoples' memory of it will be based on those few gems, not the long-as-hell crap that would come later.

In the first episode he mentioned that he never left his home town and that he kind of grew scared of leaving. So I'm assuming he originally started Dollars just so he'd have like minded people (people that don't want to live normal lives) to talk to while he was home. It probably just grew over time. Essentially it would be like if you started an IRC chat room and started inviting people you knew who where into the same stuff as you. Then had them invite a random person and so on and so forth.

I'm sure there's some elaborate reason behind it though. The whole show has been using 6 degrees of separation so I'm sure they'll try and tie it into how Dollars was started.

Well think of it this way.

If it's this awesome now and it can keep this quality all the way (this each episode just about better than the last) just imagine how much win we're in for the future.

Same here! xD

I liked the expansion of Mikado's character, but I felt this episode to be quite slow. I mean, it's definitely not my favorite but it did reveal some revealing parts. xD

The animation sucked, especially with Kida's face. So 3/5 for this episode.

Good to have you back DeathfireD....... I see so it's more in the direction of creating a social group that turns out into a gang that wants nothing to do with a normal living.....kind of like pure freedom? I am assuming something like that but in truth the real reason is what I want to know about.....the 6 degrees of separation....I did not really understand that but each degree has to do with a particular element of development?

In spoiler my anime list for now.
