So, I just got mindfked by DRRR!'s novel time lines. Sure, I'm ALWAYS happy to know more about Shizuo, but I'm definitely not happy as to how people have deceived him without him even realizing it. Novels say that Shizuo is a straightforward man. He sure as hell is. Novels say that Shizuo does not like manipulative people? ... Take a good look at Orihaya Izaya and that vending machine / post box / anything. You know how the drill.
I'm quite surprised that the anime is a little different from the novel. Even the manga differs at some point too. The manga was early to reveal the identities of those chatting as "Tanaka Tarou", "Setton" and "Kanra". The novel, as read in a blog, reveals it only in the end of Volume 1. The anime? Keep guessing. But there are hints as to who "Tanaka Tarou" is on episode 1 itself. As for "Setton" and "Kanra"... Have fun thinking. Hint: "Kanra"'s a "troll". The manga also shows Yagiri Namie's obsession over her younger sibling Yagiri Seiji who is in turn completely head over heels with a certain beauty who eventually becomes his stalker's new face. The manga spoiled at least this much for me, and I'm happy with it. I'd love to not think that much during my current break ;)
I'm kinda fond of Kadota-san so far...
And my question as to why Shizuo's wearing bartender clothes even though he isn't a real bartender was also answered after screwing around some reading. Actually, a lot of reading. It's quite a funny story though. They'll probably mention it in the anime, hopefully. Though I've yet to watch episode 6 of the anime, the previews for episode 7 are already out. Hot damn, I see a young Shizuo. I'll turn into a pedobe- Whoops! I'll patiently wait for gg to sub it like a good little brat.
I'm loving all the seiyuu voices in DuRaRaRa!!. Would it be believable if I mentioned Hiroshi (that Dollars "yo-yo!!" dude) had the same seiyuu as Germany-kun (Hetalia!)? Or that Orihara Izaya had the same seiyuu as the delicate Natsume Takeshi (Natsume Yuujinchou)? I'm not gonna bother mentioning Shizuo, everyone knows his seiyuu, dammit! Of course, the very, very, very, very notable voicing would have to go to Kida Masaomi in the end. Also, Simon has an interesting accent too! A complete work of art! Complete with a man in a bartender suit!!
I don't wanna post too much spoilers. Whatever written on my blog tends to be my final thoughts on a matter so I would like to keep mum for a while and ponder on the facts. What's the link of the blog with the summaries of DRRR!'s novels? Take a sneak peek at 4chan's /cm/ threads and look for the DuRaRaRa!! thread. Or, if you're seriously too free, it wouldn't hurt to join the insanity in /a/.
I'm sure everyone already knows. No one in Narita Ryougou's works is truly normal. Well, at least for Baccano! and currently, DuRaRaRa!!.
