Great episode of Durarara!!x2 Ketsu

But damn it, I want more to be honest.

The interaction between Anri and Izaya was so nice for me, and Erika defending and helping Anri is so nice though >___<

I feel like I want to kill the ORANGE HAIR GIRL BITCHY.

Loved the Anri and Erika moments. Izaya's plotting once again, too. Wonder what'll happen now that Celty's head has come back.

Such a great episode, it really made me want more. The interaction between Anri and Izaya was pretty interesting, but the end of the episode was even better.

Don't know how this show does it but it's incredibly intense without having to give every character a sword or super powers.

Hahaha, such a great episode. I love watching this unfold. But poor Izaya is going to get screwed over soon, ne. Again. Well, I can only hope that they'll eventually anime SH and the Sunset novels.

Izaya, as usual, is my favorite a**hole. And sure, he's not a good person. He's a terrible person much more often than not, but I don't think he's the worst in this series. Otherwise, I do enjoy the ErikaxAnri BROTP. And Chikage was very amusing. And we find out a bit more about Kujiragi too.

I noticed this already, but it's just hilarious to see all of the spoilers in the ED. Especially Simon. And damn, I love the OP. Can't wait for next week's episode. Not looking forward to Izaya getting the short end of the stick, but I'll live.

Still upset at the removal of Tsukumoya Shinichi from the anime though.

Anri so close to killing Izaya with Saika.
Good thing Karisawa is there.
Rokujo makes his return.
Shinra and Celty are so cute together.
Looks like Celty's head is out in the public for everyone to see and Celty faints.

Like always, Durarara delivers.
Izaya is trolling as always, provoking Anri to the point of wanting to kill him.
I agree, Izaya will probably overcome Saikas posession as he already loves all human.
So ehh is Erika bi as she said she dont mind either way ? It would suit her though.
Celtys head being showed in public was a suprise but I think Izaya dont care either way, I doubt he would be careless for his precious things and in the preview it doesnt look like his mood changed

A solid episode, but I confess that this season is well below the other, not by focusing on less interesting characters, but it seems that the plot does not walk ...

I hope it happens some great shit next to improve everything.

Izaya's analogies are just out of this world. You know he needs his regular entertainment of screwing with both Mikado and Masaomi. Anri might have attacked but I doubt she's on the same level as Shizuo, hence he would come out unscathed anyway. The goose chase revolving around that head further intensifies which just makes me giggle all the time. Celty collapsing due to shock from finding out or what? Fab episode.

Yeah pretty much, Anri attacked him before and he barely showed any effort in stopping her. Also, Saika in that crazy looking chick attacked him as well, and he stopped that. Pretty much Izaya is on a different level with Shizou and Celty? Just imo

Celty collapsing because of a effect her head has on her, and not just shock. At least it seems that way, I doubt she would just faint at the sight of her own head already having suspected that it was hers considering she looked it up like that.

Shit is getting real once again and all of this happened in a very informative female centered episode =o

I really enjoyed seeing the inner struggle within Anri again as well as her interactions with Erika and most of all Izaya whom conveyed his goals for Mikado and Masaomi to her in style in a way that only he can lol....But I'm very interested to see where the three way Saika subplot goes

However, slowly but surely, Izaya's little group is falling apart becaue of internal sabotage (I don't like that girl that tried to kill him at all tbh) and everyone being fake about their loyalty to him, so I can't help but feel like he's gonna get screwed so hard soon :(

Great episode overall though, lots of foreshadowing all around and that ending has me even now worried now that Celty's head is out in the public as well as seeing Celty herself fallout like that TwT


Knowing Izaya, He already knows about this :P

Izaya being the awesome troll he is, nearly breaking Anri's spirit if it wasn't for Erika.

Also learn more about Kujiragi's past so she's the half-sister of Ruri's mother? which means not only is she a saika wielder, but she was already superhuman to begin with? Damn she must be strong.

An interesting part I read up after watching this episode, which comes from the novel says that if Izaya is considered naturally evil then Kujiragi is a human created from humans. So whilst Izaya himself has chosen his current path, Kujiragi has been forced with hers, even now.

I wonder who planned for the head to be revealed to the public Izaya or Kujiragi?

The only part I didn't get about this episode is how did Celty come to the solution that Kujiragi was behind the attack on Shinra? Only Izaya/Mikage and Kine knows the truth about the Yodogiri group.

The heat in the atmosphere was so real!

Props to Erika.

OhhPlease said:
Izaya continues to be one of my all time favourite characters and top favourite villain. Just too perfect!

I wonder what Celty would do with her head if she got it back, would she try to attach it or something? I feel like it's probably been talked about before and I missed something.

I find myself surprisingly liking Erika which I didn't before. I defo ship her with Anri, they would be super cute together. Although with the way she dealt with Izaya and his BS I could ship Izaya X Erika too... Durarara has so many fun ships~ God you could just ship anyone with anyone in this anime and somehow it still makes sense in some way.

Nobody riles up my Anri-chan, especially not that slimy bastard Izaya. I'm still baffled as to why girls find that moron attractive, is it because are attracted to bad guys? No wonder a lot of girls have shitty relationships then cry about it. I digress.

I'm glad Erika smacked Izaya but I wish she used something that would've caused him more pain. Despite it all, I think Izaya is a great antagonist because I hate him but some people seem to find interest in him. He's unique and interesting but still a complete asshole who deserves to be killed before the series ends. He talks too much too. Typical villain, needing an exposition to justify his actions.

I'm kind of not feeling the interactions between Shinra and Celty, I like them as a couple but their interactions have been really shoujo-ish and too cartoonish for me lately.

Poor Celty and her head being thrown in a public bush. The few reasonable people here are Celty, Simon, Masaomi, Anri (sometimes) and a few others I can't think of right now.

Erika is such a great friend, defending Anri from Izaya's sadistic banter and insults. The episode overall was really enjoyable, a lot of things happened. However, that ending was crazy: Celty's head has been exposed and everyone found out that it looks exactly like Mika's. Looking forward to the next episode~

Ikebukuro has been bubbling away slowly for ages, but the reveal of Celty's head feels like it's going to be massive. Much hype!
On the other hand, I found it funny that Izaya said that it's getting interesting between Masaomi and Mikado - because we wouldn't know, it feels like we barely see them.

Izaya vs Anri, wow that was tense, thanks Erika for cutting that guy's speech short. But then again Niekawa vs Anri looks even more tense and dreadful.

That moment when random girl used and tossed by Izaya becomes important by exposing Celty's head causing her to faint (poor Celty, dang it, why all of them treat her like this), but man with that head on exposition, Troy or rather Ikebukuro is gonna be set on fire quick.

As for our Secretary, so basically she is another Dullahan that was sold to the "original"Yodogiri and when he died she decided to run his business and create the other Yodogiris, and when one of them died in front of her, she attained "freedom"? I'm not sure I really follow that. Anyway it means she is dangerous.

No not a Dullahan. The only Dullahan in the series is Celty. Both Kujiragi and Ruri are dhampirs.

From what I understood about her past they said that Kujiragi is the half-sister of Ruri's mother, as they both have the same mother, (the grandmother that Ruri looked up to if you go back to her backstory episode) but Kujiragi's father is not Kujiragi's mother's husband.

Because her father was someone else, Ruri's grandmother decided to sell Kujiragi to the original Yodogiri Jinai, who took her in and taught her everything she needed to know to run his business and then passed away at least 20 years ago prior to the current timeline.

Because running his business was the only thing she was taught, she then gathered around 20-30 old geezers as decoys using the deceased Yodogiri's name whilst she played the role of the secretary. At the end of the previous cour, through unknown means Izaya managed to track down all the "fake" Yodogiri Jinnai's and take them out. Essentially destroying the Yodogiri corporation that she was worked her entire life with, so in a sense to her this is "freedom" as this is her first opportunity to try out new things, she hasn't been able to do until now.

With you on this one- I mean, they went from Anri and Erika to Rocchi and his little mini-harem and straight over to Izaya, who happens to sport (IMO) one of the sexiest yaoi ships I have ever seen. Kept me laughing for nearly ten minutes straight.

As for the actual story... we've been building up the Dullahan War for some time, along with the Dollars conflict and Saika War. Thanks to the Hot Pot Rebellion, everything else can finally kick into gear! Hallelujah!

Not quite. If you remember Ruri's arc which is the first one in Shou, it reveals that she is a Dhampir and a descendant of a 'vampire' clan. Kujiragi who also comes from the same clan is inevitably going to be a Dhampir as well.

The easiest way to tell Kujiragi is not human is from her appearance as despite how young she looks (I would say she looks to be in her twenties) she's at least 40 years old and at least 20 years older than Ruri is.

So not only is she a Saika weilder, but she was already superhuman to begin with, so she must be pretty strong.

Way I understood it (just from breezing through the wiki a while back) was that she was born to Ruri's grandfather and his mistress, hence being a half sister to Ruri's mother. It was Ruri's grandmother who's bloodline is vampire.

Kujuragi being born to a different woman would mean she wouldn't inherit any monster traits right?

Yes you would be right, but in this case its actually the other way around. Kujiragi and Ruri's mother have the same mother but a different father.

If I directly quote from this episode: "The Grandmother that Ruri so admiried, took this child that wasn't her husband's, Kasane...and sold her soon after birth".

Then if I go onto Kasane's wiki page it also says that Kujiragi shares the same mother as Ruri's mother, although their fathers are different, in fact a generation apart, resulting in Ruri being Kujiragi's niece, with an age gap of at least twenty years.

So Kujiragi should definately have superhuman genes in her blood.
