Wut?
Aoba surely has his own objective but he has been shown to outright fear Mikado and idolize him.
Aren't those just acts? Aoba's just trying to use the dollars for his benefits.


This has always been a talking point for me. Mikado isn't at the same level of power as he used to be but still manages to gain an advantage over his rivals/threats. Aoba is known to be cautious of what he can do so it's really playing with a double edged sword for him.

OT: The reunion between the characters felt somewhat slow for me, could've sped things up. Solid episode I guess.
All credit goes to Sacred.

Really liking the new OP song. ED song is alright.
Nice to see some many familiar faces again for this final cour.
Really wanted Shizuo to beat those cops up who are under the control of Saika.
Lol Celty and Namie having a little argument.
Shingen is a pretty good fighter taking those guys out.
Now Celty has to get her head back from Izaya.

Durarara!! delivers once again. Not much plot, but a really funny episode. Izaya x Celty's head new otp?
Still can't fathom how can a headless girl be so cute, but Celty is just so adorable.
Not sure if I like the new OP song, but maybe it'll grow on me.

Well this is what you call a good return episode. There's so much going on but for now it's a lot of fun to just watch the bizarre (especially given the situation) antics that result from so many great characters gathered together xD

The return of Celty Celty Celty Celty yayyyyyyyyyy! I'm wondering where could Vorona be, really wanna see her on screen as well. Also a little bit afraid of how well the dubber would handle the little kinky and dirty talk they were having at Shinra's lol

Nice return to the series, Was more or less a build up/reminder episode of what happened, Was still great though :D.

That traffic cop really saved the police station from Shizuo, Though I was actually hoping to see Shizuo in action xD

Everyone picking on Celty lol, Quite the spotlight for her.

Izaya was conscious the whole time I see, Really intrigued to see what he does next. Izaya always makes Durarara so much fun :P

Its finally back and delivers hard.
The OP Song is good I guess still have to get used to it since its not your typical durarara op.
The ED Song is really cool though.
The comedy was just brilliant with alll the crazy characters interacting with each other and poor Celty in the midst of it.

Glad this show is back, but I really need to read a plot summary of everything up until now - the cast is so big now that I've forgotten how some people fit into the grand scheme of things.
This episode was cool - it gave me a new-found respect for Shinra's dad, and I always enjoy Walker goofiness.
This was the first Drr OP that I didn't instantly enjoy, but it wasn't bad I guess

The fact that i can say "durarara is back" makes me so happy.
I really missed izaya and his crazy twisted ways. Very interested to see whats going to happen with Mikado this season. Really loved this episode I hope it continues for the rest of the season. Loved the ED the best but the OP is seriously amazing. :)

Holy shit, bunch of things happened in one ep I don't know which one I should comment first lol, just your typical old Durarara. I'm literally Celty on this ep.

Buuut I'm so happy seeing Shinra x Celty moment, they're such a unique couple I love them so much! And I totally loled seeing Izaya being thrown around

UHM YEAH ONOD'S VOICE I'M CUMMING BUCKETS

For once I have to say that ED > OP... The previous seasons all had great opening themes (Shou > S1OP1 = Ten > S1OP2 ) while this one just irritated me. The ending theme, however, was a huge step up from the previous ending songs (the only one that I prefer is S1ED2)

Other than that, great episode. The sequence that took place at Shinra's appartement was hilarious, and I'm looking forward to more Izaya VS Shizuo fighting scenes

16/01/2016, why are you so far away?

Barely understood anything. The only arc I'm interested right now is Mikado's. It's the clearest one. Everything else is just way over the top, bordering the silly territory.

I have no idea why I'm still watching Durarara!!. The previous cours didn't interest me so much as the first season did, but I'll continue watching a few more episodes of this current cour to see how it'll turn out to be.
My favorite part of the episode was pretty much the little bits where Izaya is just thrown around like a sack. Even though he was just faking it, it's still funny and ouch.

at first glance i didn’t see mikado’s gun in the ED but the animators did a really good job at hiding really subtle spoilers in the shadows of the ED it’s hard to see but you’ll find that it moves independently from the background shadows and it’s a part of mikado’s figure. it’s one of his two guns.

I'm with Celty on this.

That'a pretty much 99% of the time you see Durarara until you're on the middle where everything becomes tied (and then again I gotta read some of the reviews at ANN to get a better grasp of what the heck is going on with the themes).

Anyway the OP/ED are simply amazing shit. Leaving that aside man, this episode was mostly for the funsies. Having Celty at the center of everything and being bombarded with information and jokes.

What made my day was Shingen performing that circular motion dance, I found that pretty hilarious and eye-catching (even more considering the height differences).

What I didn't grasp was Shinra's intention in making this sort of Inner Circle-thing, I did not quite get what the heck he meant in the end, can somebody clarify please?

Are people honestly serious when they post stuff like this?...
There's barely anything confusing in DRRR and most of the things are self explanatory -_-

All of those who gathered there are tangled in in various messes that they sought Celty's help about (Kujiragi stuff, Izaya, etc) and most of those issues tie together.The "inner circle" is simply them all working together to solve all those problems together by exchanging info and helping each other.

That I could get, but what I didn't get was Shinra's final line, about people placing their claws on some shit, made it some as if Shinra had ulterior motives to suggest that apart from what he openly voiced the everyone there.

And no DRRR is not often THAT clear to me. I mean this series is know to work around mess here and mess there and then interlop them together to make something that makes sense.

I do agree with you. Is Shinra meaning something else? He is probably, but I'm not sure and, as you said, what would be the reason? It will eventually become more clear later in the anime (I hope!).

And yeah, Durarara is NOT that clear. It's a twisted story, where everything is unclear on purpose or it may let you think you understand, but then it's always different from what you think or, simply, more complicated. Sometimes I find it easy to understand so I ask myself: "What did I miss? It can't be so easy". And that's why I like it so much.

Damn, it seems like Izaya is fucking back huh. It started right from where it left last time, with everyone reunited on Shinra's and Celty's apartment. Asylum much? lmao.
Izaya is currently plotting around the city, and it seems like shit it's just getting started. I wonder what's going to happen from now on. Excellent first episode, and looking forward to the second!

What a bizarre episode! The OP is really out of the ordinary for a show like DRRR, but I'll get used to it since it's so catchy!

Anyways, the conversation between Celty and the others was pretty funny. I got some laughs here and there, but the Shinra X Celty parts were so cute! Walker is as funny as usual though...

I should've known Izaya would've let himself be captured... Ugh! And he strikes again!

Hooray! I can't wait for the next episode~
