wah, the ending was not really something i expected as well. It seemed a little unfufilled per say. I really wish we get to see a 2nd season! There’s still so much from the novel i want to see!
I wonder if the special dvd episode has something to do with one of the omake? as in when some of the characters: erm let’s see it was: anri, mikado, mika, seiji, shizuo, kadota, karisawa, walker, not sure about togusa, anyhoo, they all eat hotpot at celty’s home and recollect on old memories! I really want to see mikado’s past with masaomi, anri’s past with mika, ah yes and also shizuo’s past with tom!

I sure feel not fully satisfied with the end but I guess, I can blame to on my very high expectations bordering on a rating 10. Overall this has still been one of the best.
The current one releasing in August, titled 12.5 might have the omake you are discussing, while the 25th extra episode was specially written by Narita and is reported to be like an extra Epilogue rather than showing the end of the series.
There’s so much that we need to see, like how Mikado mans up and I’ve read those excerpts to be really curious about his character in these early volumes and of course all the characters we have come to love. ^^;

I absolutely loved these past 24 weeks of durarara. Definetly going to miss all the unpredictaleness 🙁
A second season would be a dream come true. The ending gave me the same feeling as Full Metal Alchemists manga ending. Kinda empty, and of course kinda sad. Use
I have lots of free time open to anime now that summer’s over. Can anyone reccomend something as magical as DRRR!?
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
I’m sorely going to miss Drrr! and my weekends would never be the same. With FMA ending next week and Bakemonogatari’s last epi out. My 3 most favorite shows are ending leaving me :sad2
If you haven’t watched Baccano! this is the time to go for it. Also, I’ll soon be posting ani-stats over a barrage of series so you might find few nuggets to follow from there. ^^;

I read there’s a durarara OVA this summer…
POWUH: 600-699 and Romance Expert with 652 comments
whoops meant “specials” not OVA

We’ll be getting episode 12.5 in August, now 25 I can see being hotpot day but I dunno what this one’ll be about
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
@amado, just as Roger said, 12.5 releasing in August while 25th next year in Feb. Btw, finally about time for me to go hit those Drrr! summaries now that it’s finally over! ^^;
@ Roger, there are more chances of 12.5 to be the hotpot day. In case of 25, Narita drafted something special as an extra Epilogue in extension to 24.

For them to rename it 12.5, I’m assuming it’s shot in the timeskip between 12 and 13. Though yeah, it’s looking like they’ll both be anime original

I loved the series and didn’t have a problem with the ending at all. My only complaint is that they haven’t announced the 2nd season yet!
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
I am so going to miss this! Here’s hoping for a quick season 2 announcement!
POWUH: iLurker with 3 comments
i’ve got to say, i was a bit disappointed with the ending. i just felt like there were too many plot holes, such as celty’s head, which i really wanted to know more about. however, durarara is still one of my favorite anime, and i really hope they will continue it!
ahh, well, this just provides more possibility for a second season! wonderful post, and im looking forward to reading more of your entries!~
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Definitely the EPICness that is associated with Drrr! was missing at the end. I wanted more of my favorite characters but oh well, every good thing must come to an end. I’m looking forward to that second season announcement right about now!
Thank you for the compliment! Hopefully, my next post would be my longest here! ^^;

Supposedly, episodes 25 – 26 will come with the final DVD of DURARARA!! in March of 2010. Here’s the link:
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2010-06-21/durarara-final-dvd-to-add-dvd-exclusive-episode-25
I just think it’s stupid that creators of anime do that. I want to see an anime in it’s entirety and not have a wait a damn year for something I’ll probably forget. . . . . like Bakemonogatari . . . . . .
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
You mean March 2011 right? Actually they have renamed the first DVD special as 12.5 (releasing in Aug ’10) and the second one 25.
Ah, Bakemonogatari pains my heart. Goddamn too long for that last episode and now same is happening with Drr! It’s stupid for successful anime to torture loyal fans like us! :sad6

OK, first things first. :glasses I LOVED the EPIC come-back of the great Fortissimo!!!! 😆 XDDD he’s just too kick*ss great!!! :cheer:
so, on the other hand, exactly as I expected, the end turned out as nothing I’ve expected. ==” but that’s Durarara for you :tea I kinda felt stupid, because I didn’t know, how would they handle all this complicated events in just one episode and it turned out so simple…. 🙁
however, the end was a bit…. dry if you may. :sigh and I’m pretty sure, that there will be another season! :cheer: already looking forward to it! :runs:
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Shizu-chan’s too kakkoi for his own good! :love:
The end not really dazzled me as the whole series but then again, I remember all those good times and WHOAs! and WTFs! that Drr! causes so will definitely miss this and look forward to S02! ^^;

She does get better lines in the novel but her best in series: You know? Humanity hates your guts!

Ahhh no more Drrr!! :sad5
The last episode was awesome but still feels like that wasn’t a very fulfilling ending and maybe the fact that nothing was done about the whole head thing that leaves it open for a second season. I want to know what happens with the head and I want to see the three friends reunited. Also Izaya. just don’t like him. but seeing him get punched like that was awesome. I just love him and hate him.
Thanks for all the reviews and can’t wait for the summer session to start.
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
I feel the same, seriously. :orz
Thank you for the compliment and commenting all the time! <3 Would be posting the season ani-stats and summer season roundup hopefully soon.
POWUH: Novice (36-50) with 42 comments
bring out the 2nd season already!!! :tantrum:
anyway, i noticed that metanorn has no summer 2010 updates. busy people?
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
You and me both, nagi. Need it NAO! :rage:
These few months have been very busy for Metanorn authors so yea~ we are definitely delayed in posting about Summer but I’ll be rounding up my favorites with the ani-stats this time around so hopefully that would cover it!
Thanks for always visiting and keeping up with the site! <3

I liked the ending. It wasn’t anything outrageous, but I think everything went well. The author isn’t someone who’d do a deux ex machina or a Gurren Lagann-esque ending. So for now, I’ll wait for the episode 25-26 to come out. 🙂

Now that DRRR’s over, will you pay more attention to Hetalia?

@ miwa, Thank you for the first visit! Honestly I loved Drrr! I guess just because I had so many expectations from it that’s why the end left me wanting more.
@ Gami, Teehee. We’ll keep on releasing their music and it’s all up to kanzie to pick up the episodic reviews.

Masaomi needs to work on his stamina! One blow and he faints, all the time!
POWUH: iLurker with 10 comments
He took two blow from steel pipes and faints after like 20 minutes. A sniffling coward like say, Kadota would robably look at the crowbar and faint.
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
@ Kabitzin, He had been such a chicken but at least in the end he redeemed himself.
@ Roger, I would say this for Nasuijima (pervy teacher) more not Kadota. :S

i really really really love durarara. especially in the first season, they did the suspense thing really well, gradually introducing newer secrets to the viewers, despite the disputes between the different parties in the group.
so i actually expected quite a lot from the ending. (something like baccano!?) it all went well i guess, keeping up with the ‘invisible dollars’ concept – we’re all in there, doing something, every day is deja vu…nothing is truly happening… but i really did want and expect it to change, like how a simple life can be enjoyable. i was quite let down from the ending itself…i thought more things would happen. it was all too expected – all the parties find out about each other and reconcile, talk to each other about it (which i thought was too brief) while masaomi got together with saki, but everything else stayed the same. i don’t know. it felt too empty. it felt like it wasn’t really an ending……baccano! made you feel satisfied. but this wasn’t really……………………….

I think that sense of unfinished business was left for a reason so that they can make another season because believe you me, there is enough material for that and much more from the original light novels.
If you compare the first arc to the last one, definitely a lot missing. How would I love to see more!
POWUH: iLurker with 4 comments
I hope there will be a 2nd season for DRRR! as there are much more novel characters to be introduced in the anime~! <3 Show ▼
You know, just by reading can never satisfy my appetite XXXXD
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
I’m totally with you for another season! After the end of the specials, I SO WANT MOAR! The twin sisters are definitely moe-moe kyun, not to mention I can’t wait to see Akane animated. Oh, Brains Base, stop making us wait… >.>

I can’t believe I only caught this show now.
Then again, I should thank awesome Metanorn for introducing it to me in the first place, I started watching yesterday and just finished (‘:
It’s been a great ride and I’m praying for a second season!
My favourite character is Kida-kun!♥ I absolutely adore Kida/Saki & I also ship Celty/Shinra because they’re such a lovely couple even though Celty’s headless and Shinra has some.. uhm.. problems. (DISSECTING HUMANS AT 4?!)
AWW I’M SAD DRRR!! ENDED T_T
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Drrr! is simply love. I am still waiting for the second season, damn it! Brains base is such a tease! ;-;
Btw, there is a Special out for Durarara!! – episode 12.5; catch that and see how awesome it still is.
