@@johnrayordas I believe he know he is f up and that is why he us bored all the time because nothing even Kida Anri or Celty can impress him.The fact that in season 1 he used so easy Izaya shows that he never was sane . He just pretend to protect the everyday life that ironically he hates so much.I believe if it is for the people he care he would kill someone and will never care
boysrepublic bts The becoming nice part is what makes it scary. Aoba makes Mikado realize just how fake his own niceness was and Mikado makes that awareness, along with his practiced ease in putting it up, known. Fucking glorious.
At first I was like "Oh yeah, Mikado's cool I guess. He did make the Dollars after all" then after watching this scene I was like "Whoah! Did he just!? Yep, he just climbed the ladder of my favorites with that little stunt of his".
I think this is just a glimpse of his true nature. Notice how quickly he reverts back into his "kind naive senpai" persona? He's a wolf in sheep's clothing. Izaya once said that Mikado scares him.
Spade Krauss Agreed. He definitely has psychopathic tendencies and I think in the manga -which I haven't read- Izaya or Aoba says they think his cold dark-hearted "personality or persona" is the real him. Which I have to agree with. And at the end of the anime it seems pretty evident.
That's the brilliance of his character. He's so good at pretending to be the weak, shy kid he appears to be, but when the need calls for it, Mikado can show just how terrifying he can be.
Shy Girl When I saw this scene when I first watched DRRR I was genuinely surprised like "What! Holy shit, Mikado what the fuck!? 😲 by that point I was already even More hooked to DRRR than I already was for sudden turns like that lol. And while he's not nearly my most favorite DRRR character like Izaya, Shizuo or Shinra, I related with him the most in the series cause let's face it we all one time or another wanted to escape the torturously boring monotony of being "normal" daily human society and be something... well... different, extraordinary even. But there comes the heavy price of sacrificing all your basic morales if you actually want to live that kind of dangerous life like Mikado shows here. Maybe it also applies to people who become real life mercenaries, crime leaders and probably better examples since I only came up with what was on the top of my head lol. Anyways just to repeat myself while Mikado is more like my #5 favorite in DRRR! he's the most relatable to me :)
I mean, Izaya with Izaya's current voice actor is still the best though. And I'm happy with the other voices so.. I'm glad they made it that way in the end.
The Grey Crow Being badass doesnt mean you are a good character. Badasses are overated. If people make too many badasses, then they will stop being that. We need more peasants to balance the equation.
Asan Ali Well, I suggest you read the manga/ his own light novel. He is the most complecated charecter in this whole show, they just don't show that in the anime.
Izaya sure is cool. He is one of my favourite characters aswell, but stands right next to Celty and Shizuo. Omg I love Celty! Am I weird if I think Shizuo is a funny character?
The cutest thing is that his dark side is as genuine as his timid and caring side. It makes Mikado hard to figure out, imo. Makes me wonder if Mikado even understand himself.
It's still speculation but the novels and manga hint that his "timid and caring side" is just an act and that in this particular moment we saw the real Mikado.
The people we pretend to be tend to be just as real as the us underneath. Mikado isn't pretending to be nice the entire time for power, or anything like that. When he wants power, he stabs people with pens. He acts nice most of the time because he genuinely cares about the people he seems to care about, and is content to be happy with them. It's only when the inner mikado has his sense of identity challenged and the situation calls for not being passive anymore does he start stabbing people with pens.
The thing about Mikado is that he was always crazy like this. Remember season 1 when he assembled the Dollars and handed pharma their shit? That entire plan was him pulling strings. The reason a 'normal guy' can be at the heart of everything in Bukuro is because he ain't.
Yeah I'll admit I thought this character development only started in Season 2 when I first watched it. But I rewatched last year and I was surprised to find out, when it comes to Dollars, Mikado was always like this, when he faced Namie in X1 he was cold and calm as fuck, and he helped Anri escape the Yellow Scarfs just by sending some buttons, both occasions were done on a whim, on the spur of the moment, and were him completely set on his goal just mere seconds after hearing the situation. In X2 he's now ambitious, he needs more power, so he has to step up his game. I always liked Mikado, I never understood why people found him lame back when there was only S1 but damn, after my rewatch, he's definitely in my top 5.
@@deuce5546 i think you also see some different sides of Mikado just when he talks sometimes. one specific scene early on in episode 5 with Masaomi, Anri and him when Anri first talks about Harima where Masaomi mentions how interrogative Mikado is and then when Mikado basically "sees through" Anris lies and tells her rather coldly "its cheating to tell people all this. it sounds like you are trying to make someone forgive you. trying to surpass harima is the right thing to do."
He is really an interesting character. Later in the anime when Izaya told mikado that he is the one who told kida his identity as dollers leader, he thought that mikado will hate him but mikado surprised him by keeping his innocent attitude. Really what a character.
Tbh I wish he would kill and since talks in this anime as far as I’ve seen are seek so a talk with all his friends saying why he chose to do it and their reactions that’s what I like seeing
People be saying this was his character development. Though I don't blame I too thought this was character development, but on rewatches I realized Mikado had always been like this. Remember when he contacts Namie to meet in Ikkebukuro's passing and turns it into a massive Dollars meet-up? Not only that but he controlled everything that happened that night, with a bit of Izaya's help but it still went like clockwork. And when Celty went crazy and started wrecking havoc who was the only one unimpressed and just started walking away to avoid being noticed? Mikado had always been like this. Izaya tells him then that he will grow bored of Dollars, Celty and the crazy life of Ikkebukuro and he will want to move on to the next thing, which sounds like a normal advice until you realize someone normal wouldn't ever get bored of the things Mikado has in his life. Mikado's fatal flaw is his boredom, it's why he created Dollars, it makes him act up on some irrational actions to spice up his life, he suspects it himself when he helps Mika escape Celty. The clues were there from the beginning. The true character development is when he realizes his daily life that he hated before has become something of his liking and now wants to protect it at any cost. And this hipocresy and self-contradictory behaviour is the reason of his more self-deprecating and cynical personality in X2
@Hailen Ace No. He genuinely started respecting Mikado for having these two sides of him. If Aoba really disliked the fact that Mikado did this he wouldn't have held off his gang members when they were going to intervene and most likely beat Mikado up. Also Aoba smirked while holding up the bloody paper saying that this is the contract.
There's something I just can't shake about this kind of character; Mikado is one of the more interesting examples of a certain trend of protagonist villains, following very closely in the shadow of Kumagawa Misogi from Medaka Box. There's something about the stereotypical blank slate shonen hero that fits so damn well into the anti-hero personality slot. It's why so many Hero Aca fans want Villain Deku. The idea of this guy who always wanted to do the right thing, who constantly worked hard and sacrificed to help other people, putting their needs ahead of themselves, only to realise that life doesn't work that way. The kind of character who'll refuse a drink because their underage, and then break the bottle to threaten someone's life. All with an innocent smile on their face.
2 things to say about this comment. 1. Emiya Shirou in Fate/Stay Night completely fits your idea of a hero who can anytime turn into a villain in realization of his own powerlessness 2. You got your wish for Villain Deku lol, even if it was for a short time
@@deuce5546 I know this is old but I'd argue Shirou being a "Villain". While "A Future Version" (Multiverses and all that) did turn into a Villain like role that was more out of his own selfishness and the fact that it was really all he had left. Shirou as we see him in the Routes though never really gets defined into a "Realizes Life Doesn't Work that way" in fact F/SN goes out of its way to explain that Shirou would willingly give up his life if it meant saving people thanks to a mixture of his Survivor's Guilt and his Hero Complex. If we Bring "Alternate Futures" into the mix the only one who comes close is the Playable Archer of Extra known as Nameless. He according to what little we get about his life basically grew up to be a Vigilante who took justice into his own hands gunning down evil, putting it above all else in his life to the point of pushing away all his friends and even his Girlfriend. To the point that one of his former friends turns on him and assists the police in having him arrested leading to his execution. However its noted while he crossed the line of killing people he never went full villain, he was more so an Anti-Hero as he still sought to uphold justice and protect the weak even if it meant being vilified by the city he protected. And in the end he had no regrets and didn't even blame his former friend for turning him in.
Mikado was such a great yet underrated character. I loved his transformation from shrinking violet to total badass. At the same time, I also liked how they portrayed him as going a little overboard but in the end coming to his senses. It reminds me somewhat of Kaneki's character development in Tokyo Ghoul except better.
I think the title should be badass Mikado and Aoba. Mikado's dark side is eerie and chilling, he became a very interesting main character. As for Aoba he took that hand stab like a badass. Instead of having his gang attack Mikado after getting over the initial shock, I love how he smirked holding up the bloody piece of paper saying "this is our contract."
Aoba's the way he is because his brother Ran Izumi abused and raped him. I feel sorry for Aoba and even after all of that he's still way more sympathetic than Izaya whom 90% of the viewers fangirl over.
Eve In my opinion that doesn’t excuse all the horrible things he did, (more prominent in the manga) so I feel bad for him but I still see him as a horrible person.
when I first saw this scene i gasped, and I was like "Mikado, where did this come from?(continues watching) ok Mikado, I see you with your little angry self, you go." i would love to see some of the main character's reaction to this, seeing their little cinnamon roll kicking ass and not taking Aoba's shit like before.

damn that’s the scene where i when from “ my lovely mikado “ to “ Damn boi I ‘m obsessed over u “ becoz i have a thing for normal characters who suddenly turn sadistic and scary but kept their smiles and gentle characters
gosh why do everyone like izaya? i was thinking maybe becuz of the storyline later on but i ady see ppl liking him in s1. why not like mikado? He's super interesting to is like someone between white and black: D
I like Izaya as a villain. But I like Aoba and Mikado better as characters in general because they both have a dark side and a sympathetic side and what not. It annoys me when some Izaya fanboys try to claim that Izaya did no wrong just because he never really physically forced anyone to do what he manipulated them/brainwashed them in to doing, which is stupid.
Man is it bad I feel bad for aoba like to be fair he's way less evil this izaya and stops being evil before Durarara sh he's been though a lot so it makes sense he acts the way he dose
I remember finding out about this, from reading the novels on Baka Tsuki, back before they were released by Yen Press (and way before X2 was released). I kept telling everyone I knew that was a fan of the series "just wait. Mikado is a badass," and it would confuse them. Lol.
The anime was a good adaptation but you guys should read the LN if you have the time. Lots of things were left out and overall the story was just soooo good. Durarara SH (sequel) has been on hiatus since 2016 so that saddens me. The new characters are really good though and i hope it comes back
_dsmith23 Same. But the sad part is that some people aren’t going to read the sequel because Izaya isn’t in,which is sad because there’s a ton of interesting characters in Durarara, but most of the fandom either ignores/hates a lot of the characters smh
2 things to say: 1.Imagine a cover of a future Drrr SH novel having the four manipulators Mikado, Izaya, Aoba and Kuon(he's an Izaya wannabe) all together. 😱💛💀🔥 2....It's gonna sound explicit, but what if Mikado actually has a big **** making some of the other guys jealous?!😲
I was seriously choking on my water when Mikado did this. I never thought such a timid character could churn into a Badass in just seconds!
Susie Dream it's still speculation but the idea is that the weak timid thing is an act.
He was never a timid person. Out of all the characters in the series, he may be the only one who hasn't fully shown his true personality.
not in seconds in fkin whole ass 3 seasons!! i've waited too long for this to fkin happen
sorry for my fkin language
Well he idk Mikado I always thought was a little crazy maybe more then a little

"An introvert guy at home"
The anime was a good adaptation but you guys should read the LN if you have the time. Lots of things were left out and overall the story was just soooo good. Durarara SH (sequel) has been on hiatus since 2016 so that saddens me. The new characters are really good though and i hope it comes back
_dsmith23 Same. But the sad part is that some people aren’t going to read the sequel because Izaya isn’t in,which is sad because there’s a ton of interesting characters in Durarara, but most of the fandom either ignores/hates a lot of the characters smh
Neptunia Monster have you read the spinoff with izaya as the mc ? "A Sunset With Orihara Izaya"
_dsmith23 Heard of it, but I haven’t read it yet because idk if it’s fully translated yet
sigma grindset mikado
And right after that hes all casual saying sorry about that wound, but worry not. We have bandages and shit. Lmao
青葉の独白がほしい
I remember when I first watched this scene, entirely shocked the shit out of me! Durarara!! Is such a great show!
2 things to say:
1.Imagine a cover of a future Drrr SH novel having the four manipulators Mikado, Izaya, Aoba and Kuon(he's an Izaya wannabe) all together.
😱💛💀🔥
2....It's gonna sound explicit, but what if Mikado actually has a big **** making some of the other guys jealous?!😲
Everybody in the back just went 👁👄👁

わかりますかっこい！
I thought by this revelation he gain some power boost and turn to be badass manipulator like izaya. But in the end he still physically pathetic
AODA SOUNDS LIKE OUMA :DDDDD
That went from 1 to 1000 real quick
Went from sad boi to bad ass
Out of interest am i the only one who wishes we could have seen more of this side of him in the anime
Definitely not. We get to see a snippet of his breaking point-- honestly, it would've been a lot more interesting to see this side of him brought out.
Oh well, he is still an adorable child even if he becomes evil. I refuse to remove him from my "Cinnamon roll anime character list"!!!!
みかどさんかわいいって思ってしまった
The pen
Never underestimate an introvert
Remember when Mikado was a your typical nerdy and dorky High Schooler, and now he's a God damn Sith Lord, what a transformation.
Dude was the durarara's palpatine to begin with.
Mikado changed alot backthen
THIS IS BEGINNING TO FEEL LIKE THE DOG WANTS A BONE
