Durarara!!x2 Shou: Watashi no Kokoro wa Nabe Moyou

One night, Mikado Ryuugamine accepts an invitation to Shinra Kishitani's apartment, eager to talk to Celty as quite some time has passed since the two last spoke. But, much to his astonishment, he finds that a large group of Ikebukuro's finest has gathered there for a hot pot party.

Already confused with the current situation, Mikado is further surprised to see that his friend and fellow Raira Academy student Anri Sonohara is there as well. As the two decide to take a seat together, a few members of the group begin reminiscing over events from days past: Mikado recalls an adventure from his childhood with Masaomi Kida, Anri explains how she came to be friends with Mika Harima, and Shizuo Heiwajima tells of his first meeting with Tom Tanaka.

Durarara!!x2 Shou: Watashi no Kokoro wa Nabe Moyou is a wonderful addition to a great series.

To be perfectly honest this special is not needed. You can watch the main series and not miss anything major-HOWEVER just because it is not needed to progress the story does not necessarily mean its not enjoyable. In fact I'd have to say I really enjoyed this special.
What stands out first and foremost in Durarara is the characters-and this special perfectly highlights the characters that make Durarara so great.
You spend the majority of the episode learning more about the backstory of several of the characters as they sit ... around a hotpot.

If you are a fan I say this special is a must watch.

I loved when the hot pot was mentioned in the anime, and I loved watching the whole evening. I actually would have liked for the episode to be longer, but I'll take what I can get.

I enjoyed the characters chatting about their past, about how they met and what made them stick together. It was a successful hot pot party. And it also helped me decide just which characters I like the most. During the first season it was really hard to pick favourites, but I think I can confidently say that one of my favourites is Kida. That might change while I watch ... the next season, though, who knows what's happening next.

You can definitely skip the episode, won't miss anything important regarding the series, but it's still a fun watch.
