「会うは別れの始め」 (Au wa Wakare no Hajime)
“Those Who Meet Must Part”

It’s quite a bittersweet sensation saying goodbye to a series I’ve loved since 2009. I feel quite conflicted about this ending.

「水の流れと人の行末」 (Mizu no Nagare to Hito no Yukue)
“Life is an Unknown Course”

If there’s one week that I wish I wasn’t late, it’s this one. Holy cow! What a cliffhanger for Durarara!!

「薄氷を踏む ／ 以心伝心」 (Hakuhyou wo Fumu / Ishin Denshin)
“Telepathy” / “Walking on Thin Ice”

Apologies for the late post! On the bright side, a lot of catch up on for Durarara!!

“A Great Man will be Remembered for His Achievements”

Let’s just address the elephant in the room first.

「犬猿もたたならず」 (Kenen mo Tatanarazu)
“No Love Lost”

It’s like a game of hot potato and somebody… dropped the potato.

「乗りかかった舟」 (Norikakatta Fune)
“In for a Penny, in for a Pound”

Another episode of colored gangs, plotting and more questions than answers.

「闇に惑う」 (Yami ni Madou)
“Lost in the Dark”

Did that just really happen…?

You know it’s a good episode when you don’t realize time is flying by and before you know it, the credits roll.

「同舟相救う」 (Doushuu Ai Sukuu)
“All in the Same Boat”

Like I said last week, this week’s episode is all about laying the ground work for this season.

「猫の首に鈴」 (Neko no Hitai ni Suzu)
“Bell the Cat”

Let’s play hot potato with Celty’s head! Can you guess who has it now?

In fact, some anime have to take pills to enlarge their plots.

「汝の敵を愛せよ」 (Nanji no Teki o Aiseyo)
“Love Thy Enemy”

Welcome back to Durarara!!, and an episode about Orihara Izaya, everybody’s best friend.

「艱難汝を玉にす」 (Kannannanji o Tama Ni Su)
“Adversity Makes a Man Wise”

Every single series I wrote about this season is sequel bait.

「覆水盆に返らず」 (Fukusuibon ni Kaerazu)
“No Use Crying Over Spilt Milk”

Considering how frequent it is in Ikebukuro, one would think that kidnapping people was some sort of local sport.
