When Shizuo appeared in that bike with the bell ringing my reaction was spit the water i was drinking and started to laugh like a retarded. That scene was pure gold!!

I'm not really sure what the most intense scene is going to be??

Izaya vs Shizuo??
Kadota's comeback??
Kida vs Mikado??
Mikado dealing with Namie?? (I think he will anyway)
Kasane vs Celty??
Simon doing something??

Shizuo had me in tears when he came rolling into that ally on the Bike haha.

I really hate Mikado now. He's just a scardy cat now, like step up bro we're at the climax!

I hope Shizuo destroys Izaya.

Shizuo, Vorona, Kasane and even Izaya, that I particularly do not really like, they are much better characters than the high school protagonists trio, development becomes much more interesting when it focuses on these characters, I'm looking forward to this fight between Shizuo and Izaya ..

Can someone explain this, what love is she talking about?
Kujiragi slashed Shinra with Saika making him love her. If Celty loses her memories, Kujiragi will no longer have rivalry over Shinra because Celty will no longer chase him. It's not about Kujiragi finds romantic interest to Shinra. The Saika makes the love and Kujiragi is interested in fighting over a human being.

Awesome episode, but damn Shizuo, how about kicking Izaya's ass after saving Celty?
5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...

Next episode should be even better though. That "goodbye"......


I think that meant something different, at least I hope so. Izaya was baiting him like usual, but for the first time Shizuo refused to take the bait. For Izaya this would be the greatest defeat possible, he has lived for trying to turn Shizuo into a monster, but for Shizuo to mature past Izaya, and just hang up on him would hurt Izaya more than being killed by Shizuo.

That's what I hope. Of course everyone wants to see Izaya get the beat down he deserves, but it shouldn't come from Shizuo. He has better ways to hurt Izaya, and more important things to do (rescue his one real friend - Celty). His speech about this on the ground was a turning point for him (and riding the granny bike was hilarious), the reactions of the other three characters (two of them villains) showed this: They weren't standing agape because of his freakish strength, but because of what he was willing to do to help his friends and kohai.

He transformed from a monster into an avenging god. If that is the way this goes, from a character and story development angle it would be gold.

A lot of interactions here. Shizou was the core this time with Kujiragi and Varona following.

Namie Yagiri is as usual disturbing and motivated purely out of Seiji, but regardless she is right.

Anyway..............most of the episode can pretty much be summed in that:

Izaya just got a massive deathflag.

Oh god...... If i recall correctly, Izaya was going to let Mikage (his gf) to fight the monster called Shizuo and that is not going to end well for Mikage... she might even get killed. She maybe strong but damn, we just saw what Shizuo is capable of...

* PLS, the title for the next episode means a deathflag for some1? pls let it not be shizuo or izaya... i l be damned. *

The name is Shizuo. Once again proves who is the boss. Best character in all of durarara.

Is Mikage Izaya's girlfriend? Really? I don't think she is but since I'm not reading the novels, it's possible.

What i meant is that Izaya actually once dated her (IIRC, she 1st showed up in x2 ten and Mikage's brother was mad at Izaya that he had cheated on Mikage or something)

and she still likes him nevertheless i guess. (cant be more 'tsun' than Mikage but duno abt the 'dere' part xD)

She liked him in highschool and something that we don't know of happened there that ended up with her quitting school. I doubt they ever dated.

Also, considering that the anime has never stated this (gee, just like that scene about killing 'the flea'/Izaya... wonder why... > >), I don't think it'll be given any importance to the characters development/motivations or whatever.

Was it confirmed that they once dated? I remember Mikage's brother being angry that she's still associating with Izaya but I never felt that he was once her boyfriend. Actually, does Izaya even have feelings for anyone? I highly doubt but I could be wrong.

Nah, i dont remember it being the other way around. I mean, Izaya was never shown to have feelings for anyone let alone Mikage lol. We know about Izaya.

Its just that it was one of his 'human experiments' i guess. He was probably screwin around with Mikage in the earlier days.

Some pretty nice talking involved in this episode, one of my favorites this season.

Btw, when Ketsu is finished airing, it completely covered the light novel, right?


So true. Im gonna be so sad when the seriesis over because it just gets better and better. Ketsu is the last arc so when this is over its over for good. Im gonna miss this anime


theres no more of the manga for it to cover? or is the anime strictly following the light novel?

Izaya needs to be diagnosed with clinical psychopathy if he hasn't already. I ride a bicycle daily and Shizuo makes it look way cool and badass. There's still the sequel series, Durarara SH, so I hope that gets animated in the future once enough material has been released.

I remember in the previous cour(or maybe it was the cour before that), they mentioned that she was raped. It was a strange line that seemingly came out of nowhere, but it threw me for a loop. They never really went into it, but I just imagined that maybe Izaya helped track down her rapist. And that's why she's so loyal to him. Just speculation on my part, though, since they never went into it further.

We don't know anything about Mikage's past other than that she liked Izaya something related to Izaya forced her to quit school. Her brother was the one who implied rape and she got mad at him for saying something like that in the middle of the street.

People will ship anything you know. Shizaya is a very popular ship and it consists of 2 people who wanna murder each other. So..you know. It isn't surprising that a Shizuo X Vorona ship exists. (I'm a supporter of Shizuona myself) .
Also, Shizuo is the best character in this series. I love him. Badass but sweet.

yeah, that's true. It just surprised me as there isn't any romance btw them and Shizou only sees her as his adorable friend, but who cares? One can ship whatever they want Personally tho, I am quite against it and don't ship Shizouna at all. Idk, I just don't feel it, they don't end up with each other and it's cringe worthy to me despite them being beautiful friends - it's just my opinion tho haha. This is literally the first Anime where I don't have a ship.

That crane coming down on him... complete chill from Shizuo lol

So it seems things are coming together now. I found it completely satisfying when Namie was calling out Mikado on the messenger and he was starting to buckle. His being irking me for a bit in these last couple of episodes.

Yagiri Namie really is annoying as fuck. I'm kinda disappointed nobody has killed her yet. She should be happy that Izaya let her stay around for so long. That's most likely the only reason why she is still able to stay in the town.

What exactly should Mikado do to resolve the situation with Celty? And the other shit he has done was relatively calm for a while now. It's really more likely that all the single small parties (like Aoba's brother, Izaya's group, Kujiragi Kasane, etc. fuck the town up. Hell, even Kadota had a pretty shitty idea right now)

And finally we get some more Izaya vs Shizuo. It's been a while since they have gone at each other.

Shizuo is invincible! I love all the Shizuo screentime, it's about time they made up for the earlier lack of him. Still, I want to know about Celty. It's been 2 episodes now since we've seen either Celty or Shinra. This anime loves to leave us hanging. Celty is so close to her head right now! Hopefully she'll get reunited next episode.
