Review of Durarara!!

Urban setting, classy yet nonconventional, great humor, jazzy soundtrack, lots of gang action and international influences. But, what makes it just hit my anime spot is the urban-folklore mix accented also in the OST. What can you want more, when you have a female version of a the Headless Rider, originating in Irish folklore riding on her metal steed through the city infested by color gangs and illegal immigrants from Russia :D Each episode so far is narrated by a different charachter and the plot goes a bit highwire in a retrospect that brings everyone eventually together, because in Ikebukuro, nothing happensindependently. Thumbs up!
