Excellent episode! The van chase was epic needs a GIF somehow. Hashim=>
was a interesting little brat to point out who raided the Dollars place. Dollar place looks like a slump=>
Kaztano's past was laughable=>
but he himself is funny and weird looking here=>
Togusa idol thing of the past was interesting too to see who he was but the scene was better=>
Namie is interesting for making her appearance and still think she has genuine care for her brother but what is she doing what that head?=>
X-Files reference and Celty looks to love it=>

^Thanks for the gif but holy shit 18 pictures in 1 post,that so absurd!!!
I hope next post try to post less picture,this is a forum not a blog =_=;;
As I recall in ep1,Celty only whip him through,not literally slashing him.
I think Walker holding a chisel.
LOL at their dramatic gesture when the pink shirt guy wakes up XD

Shizuo does throw a elephant thing at Izaya but it's actually a slide for kids=>



Seriously, I felt bad for that elephant xD! But I laughed so hard when I saw it and then Shizuo chasing Izaya. Okay, every scene when ever Shizuo and Izaya shows up, they always shine for a reason.

This episode is really awesome and great introduce of the otaku gang + a little of Namie. Though I was a little disappoint on the otaku's torture part that didn't show in a darker way like the manga did, but I'll let that pass. The lighter and funnier way is accepted for me at least since they've done it well.

Can't wait for the next episode as looking in the preview. Shizuo narrating <3

Another very good episode, the characters they expanded on in this episode definitely made it entertaining. Togusa surprised me a little with his character. I was expecting him to be a more stoic or quiet guy but him turning out to have such interests made me laugh. The Dollars group also became even more interesting with this recent revelation.

Looks like next episode will focus on Shizuo and Izaya, probably two of the best characters so far in this show.

Another great episode.

So Dotachin Kadota and the otakus are part of the Dollars, and they know Izaya and Celty? Now that was unexpected.
Honestly, it was quite obvious that they would be part of the Dollars... With all the talk about the strongest in the city, and them being in the opening alot, the connection was quite easy to make...

http://www.mangafox.com/manga/durarara/v01/c007/7.html Ok big difference with more references....there is one even of Darker than Black O_o Erika is much more evil and the torture would be delicious to see like that. Even Celty joins in....

And while the anesthetic bottle says (very clearly IMO) Chloroform, the effects are, again, IMO much more like that of ether... Otherwise, kickass episode. I thought that the dollars password was 'baccano' at first but then I watched it in slow motion and it wasn't afterall. Would've made a GREAT reference though :D

And not only that we also have "Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo" here.


Baccano


And if you remember i said in my previews episode post that that girl with the red eyes reminded me of Jigoku Shoujo. Well it looks like it was made like that because the makers are fans of Jigoku Shoujo judging by this.


And this girl maybe a little reference to Haruhi although she seems a lot hotter.


Anyway. I was expecting that those guys would be dollars since it made perfect sense.All the talking about dollars when they where around the way they looked and staff.
I wonder what exactly are all those experiments for. Is it to reatach other heads to bodys?
Maybe Celty's head is on that girl with the scar and her head is on that jar.

Celty watching Aliens after her reaction to them in the last episode was an epic moment. Now we know from where she got her fear. From X-files! The Truth is out there!Hahahaha!

I thought those Ganguro girls where Japanese. What where they doing in that place with the illegal foreigners?

Yeah you are right. Haven't seen it yet so i thought it was "Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo" because the girls look similar. Oh well it still was a reference to an anime movie.

By the way is Cencoroll any good?

Nice episode ^^
There are so many self-intro,group-intro, association-intro and so on....I beginning to wonder if the main character of this anime is Ikebukuro's incident itself.Hope the story start soon, or maybe it has been started?
The human experiment thingy is very interesting .Hope the story expand from there ^^
from last episode,they say every event is connected.....Masaomi has quit from the "dollar" and now i wonder can the story progress any further than that??I thing its up to the director the weave the story to its best ^^

Theres a girl (Mikajima Saki) that has scar on her neck.....I wonder it has anything do with the human experiment.Are they trying to create another Selty?? ^^jkjk

As a fan of Erika & Walker, this is easily my favorite episode so far. Not only did it explain a bit about the human traffic-ing business the gangs have been doing, but there are great moments from Selty & "IIIIIZZZAAAAAAAAYYYYYYAAAAAAAA" as well.

As for the Togusa-Erika-Walker-Dotachin crew, they were easily had the best parts of the episode, from trying to use methods of torture from several manga (Dokuro Chan ftw) and Togusa's idol worship, to the Erika-Walker duo teasing Dotachin about the "heroic" monologue he did and the slo-mo celebration set to Andrea Bocelli-esque music upon finding their friend's location.

By the way: in case someone wondered the Italian illegal immigrant was listening to Puccini's Turandot (the "Nessun Dorma" aria)

And it was also the music playing during the "we are Dollars" scene http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RdTBml4oOZ8 the part parodied in the anime is around 0:54

I just read chapter 7 before watching episode 6 and I was thinking when they were going to tell us that they are the Dollars.
I was very WAIT SO FAST? but I guess 24 episodes isn't enough or something.
The music was made of epicness and the fact that it had some Izaya and Shizuo too made it more epic.What I didn't like is that it didn't actually show how they tortured him as they have shown in manga.[and in the last chapter there was no Ladies versus Butlers if I remember well.But meh]
OH,and another thing.
When it shows that one of them enters the password, is it Baccano by any chance?

I think it may be. Someone earlier in this thread said otherwise but I've watched it 4 times now and I'm pretty damn sure it says Baccano.

Hmm some of these comments make me wonder if it's better to do what I'm doing now (watching the anime before reading the manga), or if it's best the other way around?

Anyways, I enjoyed the episode.

Shizuo is finding some creative things to throw at Izaya...
