It's so difficult to think clearly while watching this episode . . . . I spent so much time laughing. Bwahahahaha!!! It's so hilarious! It's the funniest episode so far. Hahahahaha![ BACCANO ]I SAW CLAIRE!!!!!!!! MY LIFE IS COMPLETE!!! LOLzAH, the DVD cover with Maiza and Czes was also there. I think I saw Cencoroll . . . . Jigoku Shoujo . . . .I don't remember the others.Back to Baccano, looks like the password featured in this episode is "baccano". The staff loves their previous masterpiece. Well, they really should because it's a masterpiece. Hehe.[ DOLLARS ]So this episode has revealed to us some of the actual Dollars members and how they're recruited. I am curious how the leader had chosen his/her members. It's like he/she had picked the right people. The four of them look harmless but they turn out to be capable of surprising things! Haha!Oh my god . . . the part of them rejoicing and singing when they figured out where their friend is . . . . EPIC! Hahahahhahahahah!!!!!!!!! And it is important that Dollars has an "S" in the end. LOLz~[ ERIKA and WALKER ]I had been wondering why they often carry bags . . . I thought they're just otaku stuff . . .who would've thought they'd be carrying torture materials as well . . .Hahhahah!!!GO GO OTAKU CHARACTERS WITH EXPERTISE IN TORTURING!!!! Hahahahahhaa!!!!!!! It was so amusing that they made their victim pick among manga for his method of torturing. Hahahha!The one they caught gave in in spilling information thanks to these two. DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THEM!Oh they're so crack. They can relate anything otaku-related on anything in life and in the events that happen to them. They had even spotted a younger brother fairy type. Hahaha!Oh yeah, they were given a message of a "kid breaking a bin". They were horrified on their wrong assumption . . . the kidnapping was true . . .but Walker seemed more horrified that a china bowl was broken instead of a bin. Bwahehehhe . . . I love the joke![ WHY KAZTANO IS SPECIAL ]When Togasu was being depressed over losing Kaztano . . . I felt it was so fake (as in, drama queen fake). And then later it seemed so serious, and he even went to the point that he needs Kaztano greatly (he says he can't live without the guy! WHUTOMG!!!!). The rest took him seriously. SO I thought it was indeed gravely serious. That Kaztano guy might be more than what he seemed.But after learning that the reason why Kaztano is very important to him was because he sells him tickets closest to his goddess . . . . oh my god I laughed so hard. Hahhahahahahah!!!!!!! YES!! TO WORSHIPPERS!!! GETTING CLOSE TICKETS IS SACRED!!! Bwahahahahhahahaha!!!!!!!!And for Kyohei to actually see that seiously as well . .. Hahahahha! With his looks and orderly attitude, he appears to be the most serious and sensible among the four . . . .but seeing him joining the "morning routines" . . . .wahahahhahaha . . . .I don't get why the hell he got called Dotachin though. But we're given a hint that Izaya's the one who started that nickname.[ IZAYA-KUN and SHIZU-CHAN ]This is a comedy episode . . .a comical DRRR!! episode is not complete without scenes of Shizu-chan and Izaya-kun!!!! Hahahahahahhaha!!!!!!!!It was awesome that Izaya lucky missed that huge thing. It was cute that he starts running when he has realized that Shizu-chan found him. It was hilarious when Shizu-chan started chasing the running Izaya-kun. They're like a couple of stooges. Bwahahahahha!!!!!!!!Oh yeah . . . . evil manipulator has said something adorably crack again in this episode: "SUSHI LOVE~ I like fatty tuna"BWAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!Ohmygod . . .the way he said it . .. . ohmygod . . . with his character it's freakin' hilarious . . . . but with that line and voicing and his face . . . .I'd want him for a sushi commercial and I'll eat sushi even if I don't eat sushi and I don't like anything fatty. Bwahahhahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!So Izaya was there for the discount. I think he's already filthy rich . . . . but it's so cute that he's still into sales and discounts. Hahahaha!Anywayz, back to the duo, they have this sort of connection with Selty again. Izaya spots her heading for the wrong direction; while it's Shizuo who tells her that she's going the wrong way and points her to the right direction.[ SHINRA and SELTY ]OH THESE TWO!!!!SELTY'S WATCHING AN ALIEN VIDEO!!!!!!! WAHAHAHAHHA!!!!!!!!!AND OH SHINRA!!!! He has mistaken in handing the grocery list to Selty instead of the plate number. Bwahahahahaah!!!!!!!! Shinra's reaction when he realized it was sooooo cute~And oooo . . . we see Shinra in the bath inside. No . . .I'm not a perverted fan over sexy mad doctors. . .. I'm not . . . .I'm not I say . . . .AND NO THAT'S NOT A DROOL!!!!!!! xD Hahahahhahaha!!!!!!!BUT HE'S SINGING THAT HE'S SPRAKLING NEKID!!!!! BWAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!And hhhmmm . . .. Dotachin knows Shinra, eh? Ah, if I remember correctly they're of the same age. Anywayz, even without knowing that, it gives a hint that Shinra's connected to Dollars. Hehe.[ SIMON and the TRIO ]Though for a comical episode, I find it odd for Kida not to do something exceptionally hilarious . . . but at least he was there. His presence is comedy enough. LOLzAnri is being worried if her friend got kidnapped . . . . then Mikado continues the topic unintentionally (cute that he got scolded by Kida for it~ They weren't talking. It's just the look. IT'S BEST FRIEND SIXTH SENSE!) and Simon even had to make the topic even worse. hahaha!!! I guess the other sushi shop makes him sad so much that he accuses it for selling human sushi??? Poor guy having wild imaginations .. . . hehehe[ HUMAN EXPERIMENTS ]So there's this rumor about humans that won't be noticed to be kidnapped for experiments. It's creepy to think if these things still happen until today. If they want victims, there's so many to choose among the homeless. *remembers a serial murder case episode that is somewhat like that* Frightening . . . .And it appears that this group also has The Head. I've been seeing theories that the head was transferred to the head of Seiji's girlfriend. But since the head is still there, the mystery now for me is why there's a neck cut. Hmmmmm . . . .So anywyaz, the one on the top who's handling such a business is none other than Seiji's sister:[ NAMIE ]SHE HAS FINALLY SHOWN UP!!! HOOOORAYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!Well, I don't like her type of work. But she is this beautiful evil goddess with a creepy obsession on her little brother (It's so obvious with the way she says Seiji's name and on how she spoils him!)She is the evil like Izaya. She's my favorite female character in fact. And yeah, I ship her with my favorite guy in the series. They haven't interacted yet, but they're VERY shippable. They make a crazy couple if ever they'll really be one, but oh those two together are so awesome together. Hahahahah![ NEXT EPISODE ]SHIZU-CHAN'S TURN???? YESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!AND WE'LL BE SEEING THOSE TWO IN THEIR HIGH SCHOOL DAYS!!!!!!!!!! YESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!AND THEY ARE HAVING AN ACTUAL BATTLE!!!!!!! YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!YOUNG SHINRA'S ALSO THERE!!!!!!!!! YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Waaaaahhh . . . . .I wanna see this soon *_*

better than vending machine to the face. The Reason I gave up Baccano was that there were too many characters and the none linear story.     Thank goodness Durarara has a linear story line.    I know there is a beginning and I know we are moving to some good mysteries.    This is the most engaging part of [...]

There’s nothing that says “Clandestine” like a fuzzy Steering wheel cover. “So is this where they store the big white mints?”

Summary: Fresh off getting handled by Selty, the 3 kidnappers hit up an apartment building full of illegal aliens in order to meet their quota.  They’re grabbing victims for human experiments being conducted at Yagiri Pharmacy; I guess Seiji’s older sis Namie loves him so much that she hooked up Selty’s head to Mika’s body as [...]

Summary: As Masaomi narrates, we watch Anri get harassed some more by Nasujima-sensei (who apparently once hooked up with Niekawa Haruna) and Anri tell Masaomi and Mikado about how her sorta-friend Mika liked to stalk Seiji.  Unfortunately, Seiji rejected Mika, and it sounds like Mika went on some emo-trip.  Anri now seeks to surpass Mika by [...]

Spoilers are a bitch’s shit, but since you aren’t planning to give away the damn female dog, why not use them as fertilizer?  Who knows, it may have eaten the interior of a coconut and the shit will become the soil that fertilizes the coconut tree.  In the middle of a pennisula…   Surrounded by LAKE [...]

Probably the best scene of the episode. Happy Lunar New Year to you all (and Valentine’s Day but screw that commercial holiday! …I’m not bitter… not at all. >.>). This episode clears up a lot of the mysteries present in the previous episodes. We get a glimpse of who the Dollars are, who the hell “Dotachin” is [...]

If you’re not watching Durarara by now, I’d have to ask why not because it has to be one of the better (or best) shows this season. But, I wouldn’t know if there is better since this is the only show I’m watching new this season… Durarara is quickly becoming better than Baccano if you [...]

Though at first this episode seems like a straightforward kidnapping adventure, it reveals a heckuva lot about the characters. Like, you know, Dotachin and Erika and them… and who they really are. Didn’t even see it coming. Crazy punks. <3 If Durarara!! keeps being this quasi-episodic, though, it’ll probably lose my attention pretty soon. The characters [...]

I think it’s safe to say that Durarara!! is picking up speed and finding its feet as a series. Things are definitely progressing. I love that! This is another long post, but unfortunately this is sort of series where I can’t avoid getting a little long-winded. There are so many different story lines and SO MUCH [...]

Being a member of Dollars looks pretty fun. I like milk, I like the Internet and I like immigrants. Where the hell can I sign up?? Aside from revealing a number of interesting plot details, this episode is just a ton of fun all around. We don’t know if all the Dollars gangs are like this, [...]

It was just last episode that Masaomi Kida asked some of his friends to tell him everything they know about the group known as the Dollars, and in answer to that query we have ourselves this sixth episode of Durarara!!, told through the eyes of one of those friends; Kyohei Kadota (aka "Dotachin", whether he likes it or not).Indeed, Kadota's tale turns out (perhaps surprisingly) to be a first-hand

With this episode Durarara solidifies its place as my favourite series of the season, this was just fun to watch!  This weeks narrator is Kyohei Kadota and there were some very interesting revelations. The episode starts with as flash forward as it did last week, to the Otaku Quartet (I’ll continue to call them this as [...]

After this episode, I’m certain: this series is brilliant! Seriously, what an awesome episode, and we’re only six episodes in! This show just keeps getting better and better. The seemingly endless wit of this episode and the incredibly fresh pacing shined in this episode beyond belief. The narrator of this episode is Kadota Kyohei, as he [...]

Warning: Spoilers for the anime lie within! Impressions Durarara!! (shortened to DRRR!! in future posts for my own typing sanity) is originally a light novel. Then it was adapted to a manga and now airing as an anime. I have not experienced the source but comparing the two adaptations, I find the manga more satisfying… since it [...]
