For everyone like francismeunie, I think morals are definitely not something you should use as a guiding compass for this show. Almost all the characters are more than a little off kilter.

So, Celty may or may not be a Valkyrie? If so that could possibly make her even more awesome a character than she already is. On a side note, my favorite scenes were the ones at the end with her on the bike and also the Mikado confession dialogue was expertly handled.

Izaya with the head was awesome, it also seems to point out where this series is going in the future.

At this point I have absolute faith in Durarara. Why shouldn't I?

So, basically, to put it the rougher way, we just got trolled. The Mika-has-Celty’s-head possibility was there to fool everyone into believing it and bringing there the huge twist we had in this episode. If I didn’t love Durarara!! before, I would love it now endlessly.

Mika and Seiji are both psychos, they’re perfect for each other, two mentally ill teenagers.

Erika and Walker imitating Miria’s “Suugoooii~!” was hilarious.

Shinra x Celty’s moments were really cute; even though I still think Shinra’s love is pretty selfish and that he’s hiding other things… In the end they love each other, anyway.

I loved the break time in the roof with Mikado/Anri/Kida. Sawashiro Miyuki’s narration is always lovely.

Izaya left me speechless there. His monologue put a new goal in the story, just when everything felt as it was closing off, with Celty’s head, the Valhala tale and all. Seems like everyone in Ikebukuro does things out of boredom.

I’m going to miss the OP. The ED not so much, only the animation.
I think, then procrastinate.
Therefore, I am.

... I think Seiji and Harima make a good couple. Um, sure, it's sweet that Harima has gone through so much to be with Seiji... But she still falls in the "super creepy stalker" category for me. And Seiji might as well be Celty's head's stalker, so he's just the same (only... ten times worse, since he's unnecessarily violent and actually disgusting, especially in the way that he still had an appetite after brutally killing a girl).

It was nice finally seeing Shinra and Celty "together" for real. And nice to see Celty feeling "free". :)

Wonder where things will go from here~~?

A great episode with a really twisted ending. Just the way I like it. (^.^) Izaya is one sly, tricky bastard. This is shaping up to be a piece of work. Looking forward to the next!

My thoughts from previous ep about Celty's head was right but didn't expect that it was still Harima.

Didn't see that plastic surgery coming. O.o

The romance is in the air. lol

ShinraXCelty, MikaXSeiji and MikadoXAnri. <3

Izaya is plotting something interesting. I wonder what will it be.

I had really high expectations for this anime but it's kinda mediocre so far. I'll give it more eps though. And yeah, Izaya's freaking awesome. Shinra and Celty are my OTP right now.:P

Oh, great. I definitely love Izaya now. Anyway, I wasn't expecting this twist. Last episode was great but the revelation of that being Celty's head didn't caught me by surprise since I suspected it all along since they addressed the fact that Celty was after her head. What I didn't expect was for the head not to be her head. Which makes a whole lot more sense than a dead body suddenly regaining life but still took me totally by surprise. Mika may be kinda creepy but I actually like her. I still hate Seiji though. His attitude pisses me off. That guy makes me sick.

I'm just plain in love with this show now. I might actually consider giving it a full 10.

And Seiji... eh. Annoying, shows how stupid "love" can be, but to be honest, he's realistic. So far, every character thus far is pretty interesting. Mikado being the starter of Dollars = surprise. Fooled well. Izaya's a freaking troll, and... yeah. Awesome characters. And the plot. So crazy and intricate. And only halfway through the anime.

If I love it all through the anime, I'll get the light novels if they've been translated. :3

I went "Aww" when he said that Celty looked better when she wasn't hiding her face with the helmet. I thought that was sweet.

Izaya is so delicously creepy. He gives me the chills, but it makes him a good character.

It seems that next week Durarara! won't be airing, because there's an Ookiku Furikabutte one-hour special~ (On MBS at least).


Fuck Ookiku Furikabutte. Durarara is WAY better then that sports shit.


They are both good. -_- It's already happening so no point in cursing it... at least for shows.

This episode was great! I love the romance that's occurring. :)

I can't believe Shinra omitted to tell Celty about her head all this time. I can't believe Celty forgave him so easily for his lies. The normal thing to do would've been for her to interrogate Shinra on everything he knew about the location of her head (though he probably knows nothing more than that it's at Yagiri Pharmaceuticals), leave him and permanently move out. A betrayal on that scale shouldn't have been forgiven so easily.

I liked most of this episode, but the writing for Celty's characterization seems to have gone out the window in favour of an easy reconciliation between Celty and Shinra.

Of course Izaya was behind it all...how did I not think of it? But wow, I feel trolled. I guess despite the anime having some supernatural things doesn't mean that things like head transplants will work. That girl is a crazy stalker, sneaking into Seiji's house. Wtf? And Seiji, what an idiot, not realizing that his love is not really his love, it's just Harima with plastic surgery that looks like Celty's head.

Mikado might have created the Dollars, but it's Izaya who makes the world spin round. I almost felt like Durarara could have ended right here. I hope the second half can keep the story going.

Can anyone tell me if Anry has any redeeming features besides a nice big rack? I don't know why Mikado wastes his time on her. There's plenty of good looking girls who are worth more of his time in Ikebukuro.

IZAAAYAAAA!

I couldn't agree with you more.I figured that Izaya was behind the mayhem one way or another.It was a great suprise that Mikado had a hand in the creation of the Dollars gang!~Love it! i just love the way the arc finished.it answered all the pertinent questions,confirmed or refuted my theories with lots of little spikes and surprises along the way, which is all we can really ask for.
And i get what you mean about Anry,but i have to say that for me, i'm glad Mikado likes her,Because she isn't the best looking etc.her rack is just an added bonus for looking past the exterior in a place like Ikebukuro! the leads are alway after the most most beautiful etc, it shows his character.

The episode itself was really awesome, but at one point I thought that things are gonna get boring from now on. BUT NO! It seems like the real shit is just about to start. If Mikado has the guts to start it that is.

Anyway, Izaiya truly meets my expectations, and they weren't set low at all.

Climatic episode!! Wow... who would have thought Ryuugamine a.k.a Tanako; that was a mind blowing revelation. It seems Izaya was on to him though. As far as the stalker chick and Seiji, good riddance, they are both quacks and they deserve each other. Not only is he not in love with you, but he attempted to kill you too. Wake up and smell the coffee, girl, it's called a narrow escape.

It seem like I was wrong in my post form the last episode. The main plot start here I guess and Izaya will be the mastermind behind it. I always have liked the Norse mythology, I'm excited about this.

That was an unexpected entry from Harima, I didn't expect her to be alive, but I guess it's more logical (even if logic in that anime doesn't really apply).

It was funny to see Kida getting rejected by Anri! xD
She'll surely go out eventually with Mikado.

Shinra and Celty are going out officialy? I'm not sure if I understood that she accepted his love.
