Best Durarara!! Characters
Izaya... The kind of character you hate so much you start loving him. He proves that not all villains need outstanding physical strength. It is almost impossible to thwart his schemes because he can find a way to prevent you from doing so or use your actions to enable his plans. He is so annoying, but at the same time, he has quite a lot of charisma. The only thing that really annoys me about him is that HE TALKS TOO MUCH. In other anime, I have found characters with annoying personality traits, but I have never come across such a talkative character. My favorite characters in Durarara!! are Masaomi and Rokujo, but Izaya DEFINITELY deserves this #1 spot.
Ahh - the handsome and cool blonde wearing a bartender's suit, designer glasses, and smoking some cigs: a total hot-headed guy throwing vending machines at his archenemy, "I-zaa-yaa!" Shizuo, the strongest man in Ikebukuro, has yet to show the kindness behind his intentions. He hates VIOLENCE even though he has sweet cravings and a brotherly attitude. Those cute expressions on his face when he's composed, and his anger that's so intense you can't handle it, make him an intriguing character. He's so cool yet so hot-headed! But everyone loves this guy, though. I love him!
Celty is a headless horseman who rides a motorcycle with no headlights. Need I say more?
I love her. She is amazing. If I could have her, I would. I'd go Shinra for her every time I look at the screen.
Out of all the amazing realistic characters in Durarara!!, I personally find Masaomi to be the most human and relatable. We've all tried to run from our past because we were scared and lacked faith in overcoming our guilt. Most try to cover up their past with the present, and so does Masaomi. The choices he makes and the feelings he has are realistic to the point where realism can't catch up. Besides, his dorky, awkward attempts to pick up girls are just hilarious. I laugh every time I see them.
Damn, Mikado is just the best! I love crazy characters, and Mikado is one of the craziest! His thirst for the extraordinary and his hatred of the ordinary are just fantastic! I was almost sad that he decided to become an ordinary person by the end of it. Still, I'm hoping that he gets involved in Durarara!! SH even though he wasn't planning on it!
Honestly, Mikado should be higher up on the list. The timid, friendly kid we see at the beginning of the story makes him likable but plain. However, Mikado's goal of being extraordinary reveals his true personality. He's a complicated but great character in the series. I was a bit disappointed that in Durarara!! SH, he turned out more boring than he was at the beginning of the original series, though.
"Shizuo! Are you finished with puberty?" Simon's a friendly guy and adorable when you think about it. He's a good fighter, and he was hilarious in the special episode.
"Our sushi is not made from human even on half-price day." This and many more quotes are the main reason why he's the best.
Everybody calls this guy a pervert, but he only makes perverted jokes - unlike some characters *cough* Orihara Twins *cough*. He's also hilarious, and be honest here, you think the way he acts around Celty is sweet.
She's so cute and has a sad past. How could you not love her? (No spoilers if she actually isn't lovable.)
She's such an otaku, and I love her so much. I also like the fact she is a Shizaya shipper. How many times do you see a character ship other characters?
She's cute, and I love her interactions with Walker.
If she were real and I knew her, we would totally be besties.
She is also a quality waifu.
That man has class! He looks scary and really is, but he's also nice. Although he's a yakuza, I think Akabayashi's a good person. He has his own code and takes care of the people dear to him. Let's have him closer to the top 10!
He's so nice to the ladies and a surprisingly strong and resilient fighter. He deserves more love!
She is just amazing. She has her weaknesses and can be naive sometimes, but I think we need at least one character like that in the series.
Just for the burning van scene alone, he's awesome.
He's an awesome character who uses a flamethrower as a fire extinguisher.
I feel really bad for what happened in his past.
He has no emotion, but he still cares about his brother, and his smile is the same no matter what. He would be the best at poker. Who would not like him?
