Durarara SH is a prequel to Durarara and added hands to a already finnished drawn picture of snake evolving it to dragon. I have to admit tho that I've only watched the main series and haven't read the novel. Only read it after you have watched/read Durarara and found yourself craving for more.
Story 9/10:
The Story is just as good as the already awesome main story. It got everything you want from Durarara, from Myserty to Actions, from Gangs to Interactions, from fun trio to conclusion sections and most importantly Celty. If you love Durarara, you will love this too. It's written from someone who already mastered his craft. Durarara SH (or Durarara SHorts as I like to call it) gives you new mystery, new Celtystuff, new insides of the whereabouts of our known characters (more or less), new characters/new trio, new Urbanslegends and a fun read.
Art 8/10:
The Art, even tho there isn't much of it, is very good. I would love to see the same art in manga form. I just wish there would be more of them and showed different scenses than choosen in the light novel. The covers are nice btw.
Character 8/10:
The Characters already had a good amount of development in only 2 volumes, with room for more. Can't wait to see in which direction they will go. The main trio is really enjoyable and fun to read about. The development of the already known characters are consitent and intresting. Who knows what this will lead to.
Enjoyment 9/10:
The Enjoyment always gets me when I hold a volume in my hands. What will happen next? When will this charcters appear? I just wanna know more and more of what Ikebukuro got to offer. I find myself in the same state as Mikado who just wants to be part of the unusual or Izaya who loves humanity.
Overall 8/10
