If I were to describe Durarara!!x2 in word I'd call it "slow". Deathly, painfully slow. It seems that even though we're 15 episodes into the second season, the series is still content with slow and [...]

Remember last week when the episode left off on semi-major cliffhanger? Remember grabbing your monitor with both hands as the ending credits played and yelling, “WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?!” (You can admit it, I don’t judge.) Well, apparently Durarara!! is all about the slow reveal and it takes nearly a full episode to get [...]

Summary: Tokyo Incidents reporter Shuji is back in town to do an article about the strongest fighter in Ikebukuro, and the consensus is that for fist-fighting it’s Simon, but for free-form fighting it’s Shizuo.  Shuji’s been down on his luck ever since his wife ran away and his daughter Haruna had to transfer schools, so he [...]

THIS EPISODE IS FULL OF SHIZUO LOVE~What a timing for this episode to be aired when his image song (which is included in the third dvd) has been out. I can't stop giggling... heeheeheeheehee~[ SHIZUO LOVE: HE'S THE STRONGEST ]Hehe... majority confirms that Shizuo is the strongest in Ikebukuro. Simon doesn't want to talk about fights so he didn't go specific.... as for Izaya... LOLz, he doesn't acknowledge Shizuo being the strongest and points Simon instead because Simon's the one who rescues him from Shizuo.It appears that the Slasher likes stronger people... and has taken an interest on Shizuo... and she wants to cut. him. Hahahahahaha! Twisted love~[ SHIZUO LOVE: KILL THOSE WHO CONFESS ]Oh LOLz, the possessed interview saying that he loves Shizuo was enough to make Shizuo want to kill him. Hahahahhaha![ SHIZUO LOVE: GLARE OF DOOM ]Oh Shizuo, where the hell did you get that percentage of someone dying from a glare. Hahaha! (But it's actually possible you know, if the one to die has heart problems or something, haha!)[ SHIZUO LOVE: JUMPY ON THE BIKE ]I wish I can do animations.... but oh that scene makes me giggle so much (What if it was in horse form... it might kick him. LOLz). I thought only Izaya's the jumpy one, hahahahahahahha!!!!! These two enemies are so alike~Shizuo finally gets a ride on Selty's bike.... BUT WHY DID HE REMOVE THE HELMET!!!! IT WAS SO AMUSING CUTE!!!!!!![ SHIZUO LOVE: SELTY'S A FAN ]As the interviewer had mentioned himself, it's amazing that the urban legend highly praises Shizuo~ She was so happy talking about him that it was so cute~ She's so amazed with his strength and considers him more invincible compare to those experts in martial arts and weapons (because they die from a single bullet while Shizuo only needs super glue! LOLz). She had been cutest when she's been likening Shizuo to a demon and then.... an alien!!!! Hahahahahaha!!!! So she's still terrified of aliens (aside from a certain police officer now).[ SHIZUO LOVE = IZAYA LOVE ](He's not satisfied with his self-manicure. SHINRA!!! IZAYA NEEDS YOU xD)"Izaya" is the most mentioned name in Shizuo's special voice clip. And of course "bastard" refers to Izaya as well... and that further increases the number of times Izaya's mentioned. Fufufufufufufufufu~Back to the episode, interviewer learns that Izaya's the only one who dares to call Shizuo with a cute nickname xD Unfortunately for him, Izaya doesn't want to talk about the guy. Izaya says that though he knows a lot about Shizuo, he still hates the guy.Pfft~ I know he's an informant and all, but are we usually least interested to those we hate?Yeah, yeah, I'm having Shizaya delusions. I'm just using that as a replacement for the lack of Shizuo-chaisng-Izaya scene in this episode. Haha![ OTHERS: LOLz CHAT ]Izaya.... asking if he has ever lied.... that was hilarious... HILARIOUS! xDAnd boy he enjoys telling free gossip/news/rumors to his chatmates~Ah... he's the number one entertainment in the chatroom.... especially when the troll appears~HE'S USING THAT EMOTICON AND LINE!!!! AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAHA xDYOU REALLY CAN'T STOP BEING SO AMUSINGLY ADORABLE, CAN YOU, IZAYA???!!!HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!And when the troll said she wants to cut, he answers that they want to cut the troll. Bwahahahahha!!!His responses are also amusingly adorable~And oh, totally extra: I just realized that Izaya calls Selty with a "-san" in the chatroom O_OIzaya... respectful... whut..... AH! OH YEAH... he's in girl avatar mode... I almost forgot....Izaya voice on girl avatar..... *LAUGHS OUT LOUD AGAIN*[ OTHERS: IZAYA'S TV ]IZAYA, IS THAT A KIDDIE SHOW????NO WONDER YOU'RE SO FREAKIN' CHILDISH EVEN THOUGH YOU'RE OVER TWENTY!!!!BWAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAH!!!!!!![ OTHERS: MY GODDESS ]I guess many have already noticed since many episodes ago that Namie now works for Izaya, and she's like his secretary or assistant or something.The I thought.... many cliche evil or powerful bosses have reliable and beautiful secretaries/assistants, right? I like the delusion of Izaya purposely having Namie work for him because he likes the feeling of being a boss and having someone gorgeous to order around. LOLz.Oh man, anime, I want the scenes of Namie mocking or being sarcastic to Izaya already~[ OTHERS: DOLLARS GANG ]Walker.... bashed a book....that he made himself....Hahahahaha! I almost thought it was something serious... hehe.And oh Walker's dream/goal.... so out fo this world xD[ OTHERS: ANRI.... ]As I've said in the previous episode, I really would've hated Anri by now because she is SO BEGGING for trouble and she now has the Dollars peeps and Selty + Shizuo rescuing her.... not satisfied with the support that the best friend duo is giving???!!!Ah well, I don't hate her because I'm spoiled. Hopefully we get to see what Anri really is like already (because of what the next episode's preview is hinting). So far this episode has hinted of her parents' death occuring when the slasher first appeared... and same vision as the slasher too (only black and white).[ NEXT EPISODE ]It seems that we'll be meeting Niekawa Haruna next episode. She's creepy... cool~Extra:~ I've updated the DVD page until the info on Volume 10... but not all have been translated and I haven't added/posted links of the images form Volume 3 yet....~ Ah, on the OP and ED page, media files related to Yuya Matsushita have been removed by 4shared because someone filed a complain on them =_= No, not re-uploading...

CeltyXShizuo has always been amusing to watch but never from a romantic point of view. As much as I don't like the CeltyXShinra relationship, there's no way Shizuo is going to steal her away in romantic fashion. Actually that's a rather amusing thought. Shinra and Celty standing at the alter together only for Shizuo to slam open the doors, traffic sign in one hand, crying 'I OBJECT!'. Now if the women doesn't fall for Shizuo at that sight then I'm afraid there's no chance for our favourite violent bartender.

Celty gushes … about Shizuo, and takes him for a ride on her bike. And, finally, Shizuo receives [...]

Shuji Niekawa’s search for strength in Ikebukuro is interesting. He wants to write a magazine article about the strongest person in the city, but right from the start he seems to get it wrong because his approach is all out of whack. For one thing, the word “strength” itself is so vague. There are so [...]
