----------------------------------------
Ooh I thought the episode is nice. A bit of Varona action made it quite entertaining.

Izaya's mind game continues and even Shrina is involved now.
The background story is interesting. I like how they are also including Shizuo, one of my favorite characters into it to show more of his relationship with Shrina.



Good action as well. Izaya vs. Shizuo is just awesome :D

Yamaguchi-san's character checking the chat to check about the relations with the pain on his eye.

Saika girl just realized Mamo's character's girlfriend also uses chat.

People in the room came out to search for otaku girl, that's when Saika girl knows about the people with the red eyes outside. lol @ otaku girl's imagination.

Oh, so how people with red eyes are spread, to be cut.

The ladies paused to chat about the two guys' power.

FukuJun's character calling for Celty in despite being controlled.

More past talk. OnoD's character is FukuJun's character's only elementary school friend and HiroC's character is FukuJun's character's only junior high school friend, so he wanted his friends to meet up?!

Twins talking with womanizer via chat room.

Saika girl revealing her power, telling them the group might be related to her.

The girl who attempted assassination to HiroC's character met FukuJun's character with red eyes.

More than one thing happening at same time and still continues. FukuJun's character's eyes is not red anymore in the preview, wonder what happened.

Most disturbing thing this episode: Izaya's brutal killing method. Mass Saika control, no one is safe. Kida wearing Toramaru helmet.

The only person here who seems to be enjoying this chaos is Walker. Even his bff Erika is writing her will in her head already.

Shinra calling Celty's name...

More Raijin Days. "I'll throw you into the sky after her" lol Shizu- that's so like you.

Izaya has such brutal killing methods prepared for Shizu. But ofc Shizu can do the impossible and break free. I'm on Team Abayo o/

Manami and Shinra talking about Izaya's weakness. Now we know how frail Izaya's heart is. Hahaha no more playing tough- he has been revealed uwu

I didn't see the death fight in the next episode preview...?? *sad*


EDIT: Re-watching some of the parts of death match. Izaya keeps standing over Shizuo in all these scenes- including ones from previous episodes as well. Standing over something at a safe height to watch is exactly how you would treat a dangerous animal- a beast. It's also known that Izaya hates being (literally) on the same level/ground as Shizuo. He really doesn't like the idea of Shizuo being human woah woah woah

Nice to see all those characters interact with one another. Nice to see some of Shinra, Izaya and Shizuo's past. Izaya vs. Shizuo is insanely fun, even if we still didn't see much. Shizuo a beast and and Izaya's a tricky fella! Home run for Shizuo XD

Nice Shizuo vs. Izaya action, and after that there was Shinra revealing Izaya's weakness to Mamiya. He seems to be heading out on his own with all of those people infected; hope that he'll be okay (along with Rokujo).

Also I kind of want Akabayashi to get involved, BA yakuza old person could spice up this situation.


Also does anyone know why Namie hates Mikado so much?? If we haven't been told yet then don't bother telling me but if we're supposed to know and I just missed something out then could you please tell me?? Thanks


Namie was the antagonist of the very first arc of the very first season and Mikado ruined everything for her using the Dollars.

First, the griping.

Don't tell me I'm the only one who thinks they really flubbed the animation during Nasujima's scenes?!! seriously, in the last scene where he's shown with the captured Mikado goon, they clearly showed him without his sunglasses, but between those two shots showed him wearing them again? What's up with that?

Shuka, why are you treating him so badly? At least have him remove the dratted beard. I want to rip it off his face. They animated him properly the first few times, why can't they keep that up? Did they relocate all their budget and effort to Izaya cause everyone likes the bastard? Uuuuurgh.

What is with the animation quality shifts this season? It'll go from being decent to subpar to downright shit in seconds. It kind of detracts from the enjoyment to some extent, not to say Shou or Ten were perfectly animated either, but the shifts in quality are getting a tad irritating.

At least Nasujima's finally acting sinisterly, I can finally say, and the involvement in the action is beginning.

Was delighted to see that Shinra is finally back, and appears to be resisting the wrath of Saika due to his love for Celty. Also loved his delivery of the "Izaya's more human than anyone else" statement, I was glad they kept that in. I swear they removed one of Nasujima's more vulgar lines (insert groaning complaint noises here), about him shooting an embarrassing video of Mikado dancing naked (it hardly makes more sense in novel context), but I may be mistaking that for another scene from 13. Sad.

Cannot wait to see Shizuo obliterate the worm, he's been getting on my nerves for continually existing for some time now.

Poor Erika is stranded in the chaos with little to no means of escape, hoping Anri comes to her aid fast.

INCREDIBLE. This episode was epic as hell. I am surprised Shinra can still control himself although he was stabbed by Saika. Also Celty helping Shizuo, I wonder why she did that. And damn, it was so satisfying when Shizuo hit Izaya with that steel bar. DAMN. Savagery at it's finest.

So Izaya still isn't dead after being attacked so violently by Shizuo? That's pretty impressive considering he doesn't have Shizuo's superhuman strength or anything of the sort. Also, I wonder why Celty helped Shizuo out by stopping the explosion. Does she remember him and her ties with him or is she simply acting under some entirely new agenda, and if so just what is she after?

So Celty contained the explosion, but still dont know what form she is currently in after the head was tossed into the shadow cloud.

I find it odd how the focus is suddenly shifted to Nasujima as some type of main villain while basically ignoring him for the past two arcs. Whatever though.

Poor Izaya crazy how he got hit, he looks to be done now.
idk what they can do in 3 remaining eps tbh, hopefully its good though.

Rocchi is definitely gonna get shot by Mikado I'm sure of it

Orihara setting up that trap for Shizuo. Good thinking on Shizuo's part for smashing the ground to escape the explosion.
Shizuo hitting Orihara with that beam was cool.
Everyone is starting to come together.

Why people still think Shinra is a cinnamon roll even after all he said about becoming a killer for Celty? And she always forgiving him… their relationship is not healthy at all!

I would say he's much more of a Sinammon roll myself, that's probably why I love him.
I concur that there's not much sanity among the cast overall, though. From a mental perspective, everyone in DRRR needs serious therapy. Although to be fair Shinra and Celty's relationship could subjectively considered to be far healthier than most other characters' in the series. Albeit because everyone else is even wackier than they are.

The only sane person in Durarara is the driver of the swag van. What's his name again? Togusa? poor guy

Also yeah, when you look at Seiji and his craze mini-harem, Shinra/Celty looks perfectly normal

I feel bad for Togusa. He lampshades multiple times that he's the only sane man, it's clear that he'd rather not deal with the insanity, but he just happens to be embroiled in the chaos regardless of what he does because of the van gang and the events surrounding them.

Oh god, Seiji, don't get me started on that dude. No, wait, don't get me started on the entirety of the cast, or I'll be venting all day. No one is safe from the mental deterioration, if someone doesn't start out being affected, it will eventually consume them. Ikebukuro just has this evil aura and cast of characters, the falling dominoes of everyone's negative action, that turns people into maniacs. Implying that most of them weren't maniacs to begin with, haha. And then there's Togusa. I admire his willingness to tolerate that. Bless him for having to live among the crazy.

Izaya: Don't u think izaya is using his reckless emotion and not in his mood lately? Ya even it was explained by shinra then.. Somehow i feel disappoint that he seems stupid and lack of arragement -- include how he didn't expect Celty's act -- ya me too P: And it quite bother me the way how izaya desire to sweep shizuo away. I missed back then how he always mocking and influence people by his word and behaviour only. Although it never effect shizuo anyway.. I did expect more from izaya xD but if the story has different direction
so its okay >:

Shizuo: GWS (Get well soon)
Celty: GWS
Shinra: GWS
