| new op and ed; so even celty gets afraid of the cops. looks like the new problem is the slasher, whoever that is |
the only way to stop a gamer from playing is either: beat them, or wait until they get bored (though 2% percent suffer seizures  |
| Is it odd that the thing I'm most curious about is that Izaya's game board is down to three pieces. I'm not surprised that Izaya can speak Russian but I was surprised to see that Simon had a pretty clear understanding of what Izaya was up to and was rather serious about it. I expect the slasher bit to be interesting at the very least. |
| ... o.O what WAS izaya up to?? >.< |
 |
| Mika and Seiji aren't a cute couple and never will be. I expect them to make a suicide pact one day and everyone they knew wouldn't be surprised to hear about their fate... Great episode though. I totally forgot about the red-eyed slasher! Even though I felt the show could have easily have ended at 12 episodes, I'm glad there is still more of a story to tell. And I wish Shizuo would break that jerk cop's face with his mighty Superman fist! |
| loved the three yellow scarves picking on shinra's old man. (they are in the ending theme as well :D) hated the three bitches picking on anri. serves them right. but the cop remains the badass of the day /me kills. best remains Celty's kawaii-ness <3 side notes: So.ra.no.wo.to premieres and Nogizaka Haruka's secret revealed. |

| Did Izaya just use ｷﾀ━━━━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━━━━ !!!!! in the chat?? my brain is a little broken XDDD I missed this show O: I liked the first op way better but the new one is nice (a little too slow). But I love the new ed more than trust me. Anyway nice ep, finally a bit more on Kida and the yellow scarves though I accidentally spoiled myself already T_T |
 |
| I liked the new opening's animation, but I preferred the old opening's song. Oh well. What the fuck did I just watch omg I don't even... That music they played when the "troll" was on the chat was so weird. Then she/he was spamming the weirdest shit. But YES, finally the Slasher killed those annoying bitches. I never really liked Anri until this episode, but now I have a better understanding of exactly why she's so quiet and doesn't really like to share her feelings with anyone. edit lol: JESUS CHRIST THAT SONG IS STILL IN MY HEAD. ;___; |

| About the OP: ROAR OUT LOUDER was cooler, but this one's good too. Although the visuals are nothing special... So, it's been 6 months already? Nice skip... Kida's grin at the teacher was priceless xP Yeah, try being a pedo with Masaomi around, bitch. Celty glomping Shinra - I MELT. Shinra's "in bed" comment - ...I go wtf. hikoghert said: I also thought Shingen was going to be mysteriously creepy and serious. Was pleasantly surprised. Haha, yeah xD Way more interesting. Tayloroids said: That music they played when the "troll" was on the chat was so weird. YES o.o Also, Izaya speaks Russian? xD Funnyyyy. |

| awesome episode >< want more btw their russian was bad -_- i know russian but ddint understand a shit from what were they talking lol |
| The existence of Durarara! is like a gift from the Gods. New police guy in town making things hard for Celty. I knew it would happen the moment i saw the guy in the new OP. No reason to show him if he was gonna be another usual cop right? Poor Celty she was shaking. That's what so lovable about her. She can be this badass headless monster and at the same time a sweet girl that's afraid of Aliens and scary guys. The slasher had a knife this time right? If i remember correct the long hair slasher holds the knife. So if there are two slashers then the short hair with the sword could be Anri or the new girl in the OP and ED. The talk with the yellow scarf guys confirms what we were all suspecting that Kida was probably there previews leader. |
| It was very confusing episode. I now have absolutly no-idea who the hack is slasher. Overall, decent development and introduction for the new characters. Looks like Shinra's dad is not as bad as I thought. New OP and ED are 2 awesome. |

| Love the new OP. It fits perfectly, imo. But I don't really like the ED. It's not bad, but it's not Trust Me. But dude, anyone else freaked out at the ending? Man, that was so creepy. The music killed me. I'm not scared easily, but that was... such a weird feeling to watch this. The scene in the chat creeped me out almost more than the actual slasher scene. I thought that was rather cool. Overall, awesome ep. Enjoyed it completely. EDIT: Tayloroids said: edit lol: JESUS CHRIST THAT SONG IS STILL IN MY HEAD. ;___; OMG YES. It's creepy. |

Tell me how it feels, breaking down the old walls. |
| Waited 2 weeks for the episode and it was boring End was okay though :) |

They're using the cast's voices now that we know who they are in there. I liked it when Izaya warned Mikado about Yellow Scarves. Sora no Woto and Haruka reference this time...liked it... Is the slasher and the troll at the chatroom there the same person? Haylias said: WoofSadaharu said: Who's the slasher? I don't know, but it reminds me of; F/SN Visual Novel spoilers below Feels like it...Let's see if that's true... |
 |
| opening is good :D this episode wasn't as exciting except for the end..wonder what will happen next~ I like Anri |

myth720 said: Did Izaya just use ｷﾀ━━━━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━━━━ !!!!! in the chat?? my brain is a little broken XDDD Ever since I've realized who was who in the chat I've felt that Izaya goes out of his way to sound like a girl in it, haha. :') |
| New OP is very good. Great art and the song's not bad either. But I preferred the old ED to this one. Looks like things are getting serious around here. - Seiji and Mika scene stupid. Pisses me off every time I see his face. - Scary Police Officer = Ladd. I'm telling you. He was immortal wasn't he? - Celty x Shinra = <3 - Izaya speaks russian = win - Simon = always win. - Izaya does ｷﾀ━━━━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━━━━ !!!!! = Double win - Mikado's 'ero ero' - LOL - TOO LESS SHIZUO! - Is it me or does Anri...Mika Harima.... no it has to be just me. They were really good friends. Like really good. Anri's freaky man. Slasher scene was wtf. Didn't expect that thing to be so bloody. Glad those pea eyed girls are dead. So I'm really curious about the relationship between Kida, Izaya and that girl in the hospital. REALLY curious indeed. Awesome episode. Things getting serious. Miss old ED. Need more NAO. |
 |
| Ladd never got immortality. He would have grown back that hand he wore down to the bone on the rope instead of replacing it with a metal limb if that was the case. |

| New OP, is, awesome : 3 And I wonder.. These policemen, are they brave.. Or just stupid? Then again, Japanese police are awesome after all (Viewer discretion is advised) (Original article here, in Japanese) Oh joy, Shinra's father is back xD And.. What the crap is up with the dude? xD.. Cute end to the episode o.O Pretty good ED as well : > |
| Protip: I don't really check the forums anymore, so if you want something, take it on my profile. Is it time for my long-awaited return to the forums? щ(ﾟДﾟщ) Nope™, probably not. |
| Good episode and a great start to the new arc. I'm glad we're finally getting some attention on the Slasher (who is just as creepy in the chat room!), and looks like we'll be getting more on the Yellow Scarves and Kida. That last scene was an awesome cliffhanger. I will admit, though, that I still don't care for Anri as a character so I found her monologue rather boring. For someone who has been fairly prominent in the past, she has so far only managed to be a love interest for Kida and Mikado, but hopefully she'll get some development in this new arc. And as creepy as he is (judging from what he did to Celty), Shinra's dad has already grown on me and I find him very amusing xD The new cop might be interesting, too, seeing how uncomfortable he can make Celty, but it's still too early to say how good of a character he'll end up being. Overall, great episode and I'm looking forward to next week! 4/5 |
| Best show ever. OP is great. Anri is cute. Nogizaka Haruka reference. Trembling Celty is moe. Izaya speaking some weird language (I don't think it's russian) was amusing. The ED was cool. Overall a great start to a new arc. |

| Very good introduction episode for this second half, even though I'm not a big fan of narrative ellipsis. The developments were quite limited in this episode but it served mainly to set the new, darker, atmosphere of this second part.The slasher and Shinra's father seem to be quite nice additions to the already existing cast too. Oh, and I forgot to mention that there were almost as many references in this episode as in a Lucky Star ep, it was quite surprising. Now, concerning the new OP/ED, we can safely say that after the utterly crappy first ending, we've finally got something interesting now. On the other side, the OP seemed taken from FMA:B, it didn't fit Durarara!! at all, but it was still kinda good though. Rail_Tracer said: THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- We have to wait an extra week because a new crappy season is starting of that pitiful excuse for an anime known as Big Windup. You should watch more than 62 animes and then maybe you could comment on how good Oofuri really is. Oh, and go watch it too, it could very well surprise you since it's at least as good as Durarara!! in its own genre. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| But how can I roar out louder if the new opening is full of emo? Nothing against emo though, new opening just didn't live in the lighthearted spirit of the first OP (or the opening of the other Ryohgo's series Baccano). Plus "previous episode" segment didn't work at all. |
| The new op/ed combo is awsome, not as the previous one was but still great, somehow gives another kind of atmosphere for me :D!! Seeing that new characters are introduced this getting more and more interesting... Shinra's father is a freak... :P |
 |
| \Huh? New OP? Okay, new charcters make apperance in it so it's reasonable. But Uragiri no Yuuyake was better. \Yeah, a mad policeman with his subordinates looking all the same. \White Vader. Hell, he's even more awesome. \Mikado, you're so lame again... \Slasher is that Saika-san? There's also a new ED, again previous one was better. Seems like there's gonna be something about Izaya's sister in next epsiode. |

| The news OP and ED are ok. Not so great as the first OP and I didn't liked the first ED, so... The new characters seems great and promising, want to see more from that cop. And what an ending scene... Can't wait for episode 14. |

No...Yellow Scarves has now recovers from their loss to Blue Square & getting stronger without their original leader.In this episode,it's now 6 month after the event in episode 11-12 & Yellow Scarves are now everywhere in Ikebukuro,meaning that they back on business. It's 6 months after the last episode? Damn, I should learn japanese before watching raws^^ So Yellow Scarves are now back on the streets. And Kida seems to have a relation to them or at least know those members. Anyone here who speaks japanese and can post what they talked about? Original Leader left... Hm... I call Kida being the leader of the Yellow Scarves... He did dye his hair blond right? Blond = Yellow .... Although that is my prediction~ |
| this episode just full of win - BADASS policemen - MOE Celty - intense chatroom can't wait for next episode, and its seems will be Kida arc. |
 |
| Ohohoho finally someone who can somewhat oppose Celty has finally appeared and Celty ever so awesome. So Anri is either possessed or has some kind of creepy ass power that manifests into some kind of... thing that is actually the slasher... who can actually hack into chatrooms!? That's some pretty hax skills right there. Lol at those ganguro girls. Getting picked on by ganguro girls is like... the worst kind of bullying just because they're so damn ugly. I like the OP and the ED. I can't decide if the first ones are better or not. |
 |
| "The slasher doesn't kill people" *SUPER FACEPALM* What the hell is it with this show and avoiding death? |
| Lol at Shinra's dad being the way he is, I imagined a more colder guy. Celty should go play some GTA to relieve stress after her trauma caused by the police. ^^ I'm guessing Anri must have some supernatural power that can summon the slasher. Or she can control her shadow, pretty much like what Celty does. |
Meddigo said: "The slasher doesn't kill people" *SUPER FACEPALM* What the hell is it with this show and avoiding death? It's been known since ep 5 that the Slasher doesn't kill anyone. Only intentionally wounds them for some reason. It has nothing to do with avoiding death. |
| That policeman reminded me of Ladd. Yet another great episode. Finally a new OP - I became fed up with Uragire no Yuuyake pretty fast, even though it was good. I'm really looking forward to seeing how the rest of this series plays out. |
 |
| Goddamn this new ED is so much better than the older one. |
 |
| Can someone explain to me what all that stuff Izaya and Simon were talking about meant? ropes and whatnot.. |
| Celty is just super cute :3 |
