Wow...

That got rough. Funny how Celty got involved as well. I love how that just escalated after Mikado got involved and the two gangs fought. I wasn't sure which gang to root for the whole time :p

Anyways, I kinda feel abd for Mikado for getting involved in this but at least Celty was there to save him. Vorona also happened to be there as well. Then, there's Akane that gets involved as well. All this cat and mouse game with the gangs and main characters made this pretty fun to watch. Hope Celty taking Akane is worth the risk tbh because Vorona still haven't forgotten about her.

The enemy is suspecting everyone around them are Dollars, even the kids...

Some yakuza talking about OnoD's character because of the case he was being set. Those guys went to FukuJun's character's place and heard some stuff. Then he called Celty, who was found out. The enemy came, though, and became the leader without him answering.

It got so messy with yakuza and the enemy group metting up because of Dollars and the little girl.

Horse car!

Mamo's character finally got some chat going on.

Welp. the misunderstandings are really enjoyable!

Celty did save Mikado from there after all, how she didn't want to be seen. The description of a monster and thinking Mikado is for food.

The yakuza and Toromaru coming off to a fight in the subway. Lots of people are going after Celty, now that she is carrying so many people with her.

Aoba really is like a mini Izaya....That kid is sly as fuck

Things are escalating quite quickly now with this constant fighting and to make matters worse, the Russians want to hurt Shizuo too :(

Vorona is enjoying this ordeal a little too much tho, she is too kawaii xD

If Izaya was invited to the hotpot at the beginning of the cour, maybe he wouldn't have started up trouble again : P

well I guess the world just revolves around Mikado, everything escalates around him no matter what he does

I'm so excited for the Akane episode next week she is so cute

I wonder if they are actually stupid enough to mess with Shizuo that's a role no one but Izaya can play

I am liking Varona more and more each ep and I don't even care about Izaya I just want to see Masaome

I really love this show 5/5

Misunderstandings. Misunderstandings everywhere.
The situation got a lot more confusing. And I'm pretty sure we know whose behind it. But Aoba seem to work against Izaya, that may lead to a clash between them and while they are fighting against each other, the others may rally against the two of them.

Shizuo situation is not as bad as I thought, since the mobs realised rather quickly that something fishy was going on. The one who is more in deep shit is Mikado. He pretty much became the N°1 enemy to the bikers, because of Aoba clever trap.

Celty is such a cutie :3

She's a minor character. Don't expect for her to have a larger role. From the spoilers of the novel I know that she will return.

It seems that this arc will be 6 episodes long.

I want to verify something for these confusion.

Varona worked for the other yakuza that is looking for Akane right? Different from the yakuza that Celty is working with?

Varona also had a client that wants to take out Anri. I suppose it is Izaya who made her attack Anri. After all, last season Izaya wants to start a war against Anri.

It is still unclear who killed the yakuza that Shizuo became involved with it. But I think it was clear that Izaya was the one pulling the strings and I would like to know who did the killing. I have a feeling it's Ruri's deed. Maybe its Egor but highly unlikely. I can't imagine other people that can smash a guy on a wall except for Shizuo but we already know that he wasn't the one who did it.

gj Celty-san. eavesdrop on that whole conversation, offer no help to Mikado after everyone knows youre there, and then take on your usual role as the convenient get-away.

Aoba that bastard. now the biker gang thinks Mikado is leading the bluesquares.

and LOL the russian assassins think Celty kidnapped Mikado to eat him.

Yeah. In peacetime, Izaya has very little power. His ability, as explained earlier, is to make close decisions favour him. Now, everything seems like a close decision.

Only reason I didn't is because I was eating while watching. I agree though. The misunderstandings and confusion are hilarious.

ThreePointer said:

Well, he likes seeing how humans will react to situations. The more complicated the situation, the more enjoyable it is for him. He's kind of a sociopath. I find it amusing personally.

LOL! Huge misunderstanding among the gang.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

Hmm, I wonder what Celty's signal to Shinra is when he calls her. I mean, she can't speak, so... Knowing Shinra, it's probably something cutesy and/or embarrassing.

Also, seeing Celty pull Mikado, Anri, and Akane along like that reminded me of this picture: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/31/a7/e8/31a7e86c6d23dbfd3be8c53de75f5b27.jpg

I don't know kanji (only took year 1 of my high school's Japanese course): which one is Mairu and which one is Kururi? In the chatroom, I mean. One of them posts in light blue and the other in dark blue, but since they share the same voice actor it's a little harder for me to tell them apart.

Ruri's former talent manager Yodogiri hired them to kidnap Akane, but Izaya screwed that up by getting to her first using to lure Shizuo into a trap. Izaya is the most likely suspect to have sent Russian hitmen after her as well.

LOVED this episode! We get a sense of how things are going to fall into place and how all these seemingly loosely connected people and stories are going to resolve themselves. Which is what Durarara does best.

Shizou has really landed in the thick of things at this time. And I'm wondering just how convoluted all these situations are going to become with both Izaya and Aoba trying to manipulate people. Plus there's Varona who appears to have contracts on everyone and their dog.

I can't wait for the next episode! *glee*

I'm really wondering what Aoba hopes to achieve with all of this. Izaya just wants to make trouble and have fun but he never took action himself. Aoba takes part in the action though. Not sure he's just doing it for fun like Izaya.

AHHHH AKANE-CHAN SO KAWAIIIIIIIII

Ok i am completely in love with how everything is coming together. Each week things get more and more confusing as the web of people that know the other person is getting bigger and more connected, so much more threads. If someone were to make a spider web of this thing it'd be huge and beautiful.

This anime is awesome and interesting.

5/5. Love it.
