Basic Premise/Basic Plot: Mikado Ryūgamine, a young boy who longs for the exciting life of the big city moves to Ikebukuro to attend Raira Academy with his childhood friend Masaomi Kida, who he has not seen since he was young. After the two meet at the train station, they set out at night to the streets of Ikebukuro. Masaomi warns Mikado about people he doesn't want to cross in the city, such as the violent and superhumanly strong man Shizuo Heiwajima, the information broker Izaya Orihara, and the mysterious gang known as "The Dollars." After running into some of the side characters, Mikado sees a local legend called the "Black Rider", who rides around Ikebukuro on a black bike that occasionally neighs like a horse, and who is rumored to have no head under her helmet. The "Black Rider" is Celty Sturluson, an Irish dullahan who is in Ikebukuro looking for her stolen head. The narrative follows all of the characters equally, showing how their lives intersect and creating a greater plot line from what each character knows about a common incident.
Your Rating for the Artwork: A
Your Opinion/Review of the Art: its really interesting, the characters are great and really addictive. The story on itself might sound abit complicated but more you continu to watch ,more you understand. it's funny,serious, you have to think ,to guess. which make your little brain think. sometimes you will insult a character you hate. sometimes you'll get all ..*hugs myself and hearts appear around me* Shizuoooo~(it will happen for you i bet) .
Your Rating for the Story: A
Your Opinion/Review of the Story: you'll be lost sometimes, you'll have to re-watch it sometimes and then you'll be all " AHH IT WAS THAT--/HIM--/HER--" and chuckles nervously. its a great Anime, Manga and light novel. I love it, I love the atmosphere around every characters.
Suggested for people who like: Mistery (in the city of Ikebuukuro,there are alot of Misteries. wink ) , love, tragedy, fun, violence. (you'll love Shizuo Heiwajima..though, he is just a baby to me who needs love crying )
