One down...a few to go

Durarara 24! the end. While the first half of this series used the same storytelling method as Baccano, the characters and scenarios were pretty inventive. The second half switch out the method, and focused on the problems of the three teens. I was disappointed that the most interesting characters, Shizuo, Celty, etc. took a slight backseat to the teens, hive mentality, and trying to belong struggle. I think the novels probably have more depth to the other characters from the spoiler snippets I've seen, so I suppose the anime chose a path for its intended audience. The production was iffy throughout the entire season which was another small disappointment. ~7/10 rating I can't really see myself jumping to rewatch or even buy this series as I did with Baccano, but it was imaginative in the beginning. Celty, Shizuo & Simon are great characters. I hope the 2 DVD bonus episodes are amusing. The end of the tv portion had tiny funny parts, but on the whole was predictable.

House of Five Leaves 11! Hair-service. Yaichi and Masa had a disagreement...I think...time for makeup smut...something like that.
