Synopsis

In the densely populated district of Ikebukuro, "normalcy" is nearly impossible for its residents. This is to be expected with the notorious Headless Rider haunting its winding streets. However, six months after the disbandment of the Dollars, no one has seen the infamous figure. Despite this, the city has hardly settled down, and three new figures emerge to take center stage.

Growing up in the boonies of Akita, Yahiro Mizuchi has always believed himself to be a "monster," a fact only affirmed by those around him. However, spurred on by the words of a stranger, he sets out to Ikebukuro to witness the monstrous Headless Rider. Meanwhile, Kuon Kotonami is involved with nearly all the dealings going on in Ikebukuro, all with one goal—to make money. For him, the Headless Rider is one of the most lucrative markets out there. Conversely, Himeka Tatsugami wishes to avoid the notorious Rider at all costs; after all, that monster has taken far too much from her.

As new and old faces collide, the Headless Rider is at the center of it all, and—despite its absence—it continues to influence Ikebukuro, the district that never sleeps.

Ryogho Narita once again transports us to the bustling, supernatural, and yet oddly relatable streets of Ikebukuro in Durarara!!SH

TL:DR is in "Overall" section

Although, presumably one would know to finish Durarara!! itself before reading SH, I'll add it in here just in case.

Story - 7/10:
SH is a great sequel if you're craving more supernatural hijinxs, but fails to introduce a complex, multilayer plot that we've seen in the original Durarara!! It also can't seem to introduce new plot elements (with the exception of one protagonist's "abilities", so while it's changed up a little, we still see the same Blue Squares, same Dragon Zombie, same Awakusu-kai.

(Includes mini minor spoilers)
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 ...
