aha~ these series are always giving unexpected things over and over again
From the start when shinra was being kidnapped, romp between a spiderwoman and black shadow, hyperactive guy with his 2D delusions, a guy who confused with the situation just in first minutes of the show.

It's surprising in the fact Chikage is much stronger than Aoba's brother. And its really appeals how weak Kida ;-; I wonder how much strength Shizuo do have..

Varona who always thinking rationally seems starting to be unstable by her emotion. And Shizuo, apparently do not have any sense of a emotional thing except anger. That shows in the time when bunch of kids came to him. But relieve that he endured it almostly.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~SHOOTTTTEEEERRR SO BADDAASS!!~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Even at this point of the series, people seem to be bitter because Izaya doesn't appear in every episode.. Why? I mean, yeah, he is complex and interesting and such, but really, he is not the center of the show, at least not anymore. Even Celty which is the only protagonist in the series, doesn't appear in some of them, or she wasn't relevant; is the same with Mikado to an extent. But this is fine because Durarara has a big cast of interesting characters in which even the most secondary of it is relevant to the plot.
I think people need to enjoy more of this variety (regardless of which you like more) instead of finding boring the episodes where such character doesn't appear.

Lol man, people who regret he's not in every episode are girls. What can you do? Maybe they're watching the show b/c of him. You can't tell them to enjoy the rest if they don't.

Anyway, I'm kinda disappointed with this show's unrealistic physics. It's absurd to watch. I wonder if it's the same in the light novels or not. Unfortunately, there's no translation at this point.

And I'm disappointed how condensed the show is. Had to find snippets from LNs to read about recent episodes, and even those snippets explained a lot of things to me. They fail to bring the LNs on screen, imho. Instead of showing us retarded spiderman feats, they could explain characters better. This time Vorona got some tiny character development, what about all the rest?

Dunno, I kinda watch the show to see the people's characters and how they deal with everything thrown their way and who wins eventually, but instead they fill the episodes with stuff I find irrelevant. Like ridiculus physics. Are we kindergarten kids that are supposed to be awed? Sorry but kindergarten kids wouldn't appreciate what's going on in this show behind the scenes, they wouldn't follow the logic.

This ep the only things that happened:

- Kasane tries to antagonize Celty for reasons yet unknown and feels jealous of her reactions for vague reasons;
- The dude with a hammer spills Mikado's name publicly for the first time;
- Masaomi and the retarded playboy became buddies;

Of this, I was only interested about the second one. Why did the Hammer-dude talk about Mikado? He doesn't look like he knows about his history with Masaomi, so he didn't say it for Masaomi specifically. Which means he's claiming to be on Mikado's orders to everyone else, right? I wonder if that means they're gonna cause a ruckus and blame it all on Mikado publicly. Mikado could get on probation, you know, and ultimately take the blame for everything, like the Hammer-dude in the past. That's a tainted rep you can't possibly recover, this is why I find it interesting. The potential consequenes of this mess just got serious at least for one character on the show.

All the rest... Spider-women, giant black balls, horses that transform... Sorry I'm not from the kindergarten to care. :(

There's so many things I find wrong with this post, I don't know whether you are actually serious or just trolling. If it's the former than all I need to say to you is that anime series is clearly not for you then and you should go and look for something else to do in your free time. If you don't know why I came to this conclusion then see what you wrote here: "this show's unrealistic physics. Its absurd to watch", when In some kind of form or another every single anime in existence has unrealistic physics.. What you're criticising here isn't the series but the anime industry itself.

In a way I hope you're trolling when you say things like the "spider-women" segment is irrelevant and a waste of time when firstly both characters involved are essentially the main protagonist and main antagonist of the series currently and secondly this segment only lasted around 2-3 minutes of the 24 minute episode. If anything was a "waste of time" it would be Varona's character development which took up around 8 minutes of the episode.

Impressive Episode 5/5

Now it makes me wonder on why Kujiragi kidnapped Shinra ?! What's her real intention ?!
Celty going on a berserk mode ... I never thought that Celty can make her body into a giant black matter thing.

Looks like Shizuo came for the help and I think he will meet up with Varona.

I laughed so hard at Walker's reaction tho, he didn't feel any dangerous things at all, isn't he ?

As for the preview for next week Episode, Anri meet with Kida's lover (Saki) wonder what are they talking about ... maybe it's about The Yellow Scarves and The Dollars. Izaya & Ryuugamine came back in the next Episode ... Idk why but I got the feeling that Ryuugamine slowly turns into Izaya.

Chikage is definitely cool af.
That Blue Squares leader is a right mong. To me I put him in the Nasujima/Kugaha (Noragami) category but not quite in the Gilgamesh (Fate) or Izaya category.
Also where tf is Kadota, I'm pretty sure he woke up like last ep.
I'm hoping that Varona will become normal again...I don't like this new one.

Wow everything went even more crazy this episode. Why are they targeting Celty so heavily? What do they gain from her going wild and/or finding her head again? That Kujiragi Kasane would go so far to cut Shinra with Saika keeps me wondering. That also kinda sucks. There isn't really a cure to Saika, is it? Poor Shinra.

Also even though Rokujou wants to crush Kida for a stupid reason I kinda like his character. Really was hoping he'd pop that guy's eye balls. Wouldn't be the first time he went overboard :D The thief with broken knees probably will remember to not push over ladies ever again.

Nuuu, Celty got NTRed!! Oh dear my. Guess I'll have to wait until the next episode or the one after that to see what plan Nasujima cooked up. But seriously, Shizuo on a bicycle because he cannot ride a horse or motorcycle was great.
I think that ending with Celty's black matter thing hovering in the air with those wires of some sorts, were foreshadowing the scene where Kujiragi holds Celty back with her claw thingies. The women in this show are really BA.

Ahh that was interesting. Now the ending background makes sense, I wonder how much of a significance it holds for the rest of the show - maybe some revelation or the like for Celty?

The soundtrack was pretty good this episode, too! Especially when Varona was driving.

I rarely post but eh.
Shooter is the real MVP.
Izaya has nothing to do with it and he's getting blamed by Shizuo.
Anri meeting other Saika's and Seijii is probably gonna end up doing something stupid with the head or afterwards Celty gets her head back, i mean he's pretty f*cking stupid.
Varona struggling with her hate/love for Shizuo although Shizaya is a thing already, Shinra's face when getting kissed and him getting stolen from Celty, i hope they explain everything afterwards or i'm gonna be mad, it's a clusterfest, No Mikado this episode? :( Atleast they showed some "flashbacks" of him. The Dollars may be turned into a antagonist until certain point? I don't know, i hope it's not like "Antagonist = Friednship is best blah blah blah = Fixed Problem no explanation" but Durarara is something else, it kind of reminds me of Hamatora for some reason.

Then we have Mr.Shizuo bending some cell bars, the policemen don't even care it's like a daily thing.
Hope he meets up with Varona, we need more Izaya.

Walker pls.

Apparently they want to Antagonize celty?
If she does get Shinra back that's not gonna happen though, but you know how hard it's to break plot armor.
What would it be like to feel a punch of Shizuo?
But more importantly, we need more ruskis.

next episode we have one of this pairing best moments were Aoba acts all worried about him and Mikado even offers to help him do his summer homework I hope they don't cut it

Oh man, yeah, happy to meet a fellow shipper!

Just saw those moments you mentioned, homework and all :) Too bad Mikado doesn't act like he cares anyway, but Aoba's been all fascinated throughout all the time with Mikado. I've seen enough, lol, he always stares at him like he's hypnotized, especially at the "dark Mikado". And he hugged him that one time when he got beaten and acted so worried... <3

To be honest, this "next episode" made me rather imagine Mizaya... lol. Seriously, Izaya now acts so obsessed with Mikado, so fixated. Still, Aoba all the way!!! :)

Are you ready for the monologue of the century? Varona's dialogue was interesting for a little while but honestly it felt like it dragged on just a tiny bit to long.

Kujiragi reminds me of a spider, all those metal strings could double as webs. I think she picked a fight with the wrong girl though. Celty is going to destroy her xD

Is there a reason Celty stayed in that big blog form instead of changing shape to break through the "net" or was it just plot convenience? I assumed the reason she was in that form was to make it easier to find Shinra after she lost sight of him but there was no reason her to stay in that slow form after she found him.

Anyways, really enjoyed the bit with Shizuo and Celty's horse xD

First seconds of the episode and I'm like WHAAAAT!? CELTY DO SOMETHING! O_O
Well... she did..do something! O_O She was successfully triggered.
Ok, she is pissed off real bad...

PD: Walker is beyond saving xD

This "new" form of Celty is amazing and scary but Kasane is also a master in Saika wielding... Very impressive.

While I want more Shirona (ShizuoxVorona) I think this is not exactly the best time for her to think about it xD

Shooter asking Shizuo for help is amazing!! Loved the moment as simple as it was.
That was a super bike! I freaking knew it!!! xDDD

DAT KISS! Shinra getting a harem now?

Berserk Celty.

Saika-woman, Saika-woman, friendly neighborhood, Saika-woman.

Lol at Walker realizing he's in an anime.

Those kids are the definition of stupid. You know who Shizuo is and heard of what he can do, yet you purposely act disrespectful in front of a guy you think is Shizuo and then kick him. No one would object to Shizuo killing you all right there and hope that you become smarter in your next life.

Chikage was like "Fock yo chest, Izumii."

So the ED makes sense now with Celty stuck in Kasane's net.

lol at the Shizuo and Shooter scene.
