Durarara!!x2 Shou Season 2 Episode 2 デュラララ!!×2 承 Anime Review

Izaya's twin sisters 

If I was one of the character in this series and saw what those sisters did or even heard it from my colleagues, I would stay away as far as possible from them, I'm not joking, those sisters are ridiculously dangerous! The fact that Izaya had little twin sisters was revealed in one of the bonus episodes from previous season. As weird as they looked back then, a lot about them was revealed in this episode, some pretty bizarre stuff.

Izaya is shown discussing about his twin sister, Mairu and Kururi with Namie as she found out they joined the same high school in which Mikado and Sonohara are. He said that those twins had same personality before but they decided to change and take on different personalities. It's just like a person having two personality is split into two different people to tackle various situations and problems. Mairu or Mai for short is shown as a bookworm and talkative person while her sister, Kururi or Kyo for short is shown wearing gymnastics outfit which makes her stand out among others (Is that even allowed in schools?) and is shy and soft-spoken as oppose to her twin. Both of them are big fans of Kasuka, that famous movie actor and brother of my man, Shizou. What surprised me during this scene was that Izaya doesn't like them. 

So what's so scary about those twin sisters? They are athletic as in they can fight anyone or at least Mairu is as shown in that bonus episode as well as this episode. So, some bullies wrote some bad stuff on Mairu's desk, she confronted those bullies by chasing them, taking one of those girls down, held her mouth wide open, took a box consisting thumbtacks and threatened her to tell who was the leader. If that girl hadn't told her in time, Mairu would really have dropped those thumbtacks in her mouth (which almost happened but Mairu caught them), luckily that girl, in tears by now ratted out. Just imagine those thumbtacks going down your throat and piercing everything inside, it's so bizarre that It's unimaginable! Not to mention her Sister, Kururi framed those bullies by placing some drugs in their bags. She also placed and triggered a fire bomb or something in one of their bags! Just when I though Izaya was enough, his twin sisters are even more dangerous! We all know how Izaya is, he doesn't get directly involved in anything, yes, he pulls all the strings but doesn't get his hands dirty while his twin sisters are complete opposite, they don't care about anything.


Besides all that madness, I'm not really sure about this but it kinda looks like Shinra's father was the owner of Saika (that katana) before Sonohara. If that's true then man, that's a big plot twist. Also some Mafias broke into Shinra's house where he was caged in that black ball or something and was pretty much helpless. From what it looks like is that guy who Shinra's father was shown talking to is somehow involved in this. I wonder if those Mafias will do anything to Shinra and if they really do, Celty is gona be pissed and trust me, you don't wana piss off a Dullahan headless rider! We also get to see some Shizou action! even if it was just a small part, it was worth it. Now all we have left is to see Semyon! man I miss his "Russian Sushi, cheap Sushi, tasty Sushi" catchphrase! Hope to see him in future. 

Another character is introduced to us who will likely play a important role in future, Aoba. He seems smart and cunning, besides he is a member of Dollars. It looks like Kururi has some feelings for him as well. Overall, another enjoyable episode from this series, we are yet to see any developments on that murder case from previous episode. Thank you for reading this anime review, have a wonderful day or night wherever you live!
