Durarara!! Episode 3 – Showdown in Ikebukuro

By Shokkeru | Published: January 23, 2010

An episode where a lot of things happen but nothing really happens at all. I’m feeling quite torn with my impressions of this episode. I was bored with the first half of it with all the minor things that happen that do not seem to have much relevance to anything. But, the second half was a [...]
