Ikebukuro. A place so overwhelming for our normal main character, Ryuugamine Mikado. With its flashy lights, lively nightlife, myths, urban legends, gang wars, human slashing and even kidnapping, Mikado tries to survive his new life in Ikebukuro with the company of his school friends: a lovely, shy school girl named Anri, and his childhood "flirty" friend Kida. But with the legend of the headless motorcycle rider roaming around the streets, add in a peculiar Russian sushi merchant, a strangely strong bartender, a creepy information dealer, a missing stalker, a mysterious gang named Dollars, an underground doctor, and a bunch of otakus, Ikebukuro might be a bit too adventurous to handle for our dear main character.
From Narita Ryohgo's light novel series, the same author of Baccano! (yes, the author is fond of using exclamation marks), Durarara!! is a 26-episode series that is still currently airing in Japan. As of this writing, 21 episodes have been aired. If you like your anime to have a bit of mystery, jumbled characters and with a touch of myths & legends, then Durarara!! is the perfect series for you. No moe blob characters, no fluffy romances, just mystery plot fun. <3
You know you'd want to watch a series if flying vending machines, trashcans, and stop signs come zooming from out of nowhere.

Yes, trash cans, vending machines and stop signs.

Also, stomping on cellphones. Just a hobby.
