And so the series ends! ... For now. A simple wrap up to the whole series, which still has much potential.

I thought I would be more nostalgic at the last episode but somehow I felt quite complacent. Everything is how everything should be. Misunderstandings wrapped up, no more secrets, and life goes on. There is nothing extraordinary in the final moment of the episode, but that is what the whole series is about: the irregulars that you see and hear about but don't see often in your daily routine.

There is only one moment that quite touched me:
Spoiler for Minor spoiler:
I felt that was the best moment in this arc since seeing her face just makes me depressed most of the time. Undoubtedly this last episode could deliver much more, but this simple gesture is enough for me.


Now we get to wait what episode 25 is about~.



PS: Hima** is sooo slow .... wth? Had to watch this elsewhere this time.
PPS: Lady vs. Butler sucks! Poor taste otaku-kuns~~~

I'll do russian-english translation for you, guys) Give me 5 minutes

Quote:
Семен: Эй, слушай сюда. Даже смешно. Какой же ты трус.
Simon: Yo, listen here. This is even funny. What a coward you are.

Изая: Я тоже понимаю что трус, но знаешь, Семен, я люблю эту свою трусость.
Izaya: I also understand I'm a coward, but you know, Simon, I love this, my cowardice

Семен: Девушка Масаоми, знаешь, мне звонила, ************ и все мне рассказала
Simon: Masaomi's girlfriend called me ************* and told me everything.

Изая: Саки? Зачем же она?
Izaya: Saki? Why whould she?

Семен: Она по уши втрескалась в Масаоми. Тебя похоже кинули
Simon: She totally fall for my Masaomi. It looks like you were dumped

Изая: Ах вот оно что... Саки, она...
Izaya: Oh, thats how it is... Saki, she...

Семен: Ты Изая, ты не шарься особо по городу
Simon: You'd better not wander over the city too much, Izaya

Изая: Саймон, я, это, на самом деле люблю людей
Izaya: Simon, I'm, well, I actually like humans.

Семен: Это не повод, ты ведь просто не хочешь ****** Шизуо? У вего ведь просто комплекс.
Simon: That's not the reason, you just don't want ****** Shizuo, right? It's just his complex.

Изая: хахаха
Izaya: hahaha

Семен: Стоит о чем-то подумать, как уже все знают
Simon: You only were thinkin about it, as everybody already knows.(not really, but close, it's more like a proverb)

Изая: Семен, ты... japanese
Izaya: Simon, you... *moonspeaking*

***** - parts I can't really understand

Kadota COOL!

CELTY COOL!

SHIZUO COOL! (but really they really need to count on how many billboard or post he destroyed. His pretty resourceful that would just grab anything around him)

SIMON COOL! Love the K.O. Punch!

IZAKA DEMONIC COOL! (dagger vs katana)

ANRI ......cute (nice body(the night or rather they really put effort on her body when she's pointing that katana ( I just notice it) ) )
the policeman (forgot the name) is also cool but his so rarely been shown that I already forgot him.

Saki..... scary? or ... I just don't get this girl. Pretty twisted if you ask me but still they really love each other. And maybe she's just been too influence by izaya

Pretty anti climatic or rather normal ending but still awesome at some scenes.

Need more Namie.

EDIT:

I just got to say this but off all the place for that scene. It's just got to be the "L O V E" spot which I always so on live japanese drama

Thanks! Adding the missing parts based on the Japanese subs...

Spoiler for length:


Spoiler for a couple of things from the episode:


I've really enjoyed this, despite being spoiled more than once and then spoiling myself further. But it looks like the novels flesh a lot of things out better (e.g. Anri vs. Izaya scene here and here, many thanks to Anni)

karice67,
Thanks, well, maybe they've just used russian wrong way, lol, cause I'm pretty sure about those parts I've translated(I mean russian variants)

Simon, you...the impression you give when speaking Russian is way too different from your Japanese persona.
Who's talking...

As far as last episodes go, it kind of feels lacking, but the very last part of the episode ends it well, I guess.
The final boss of the anime was pretty pathetic though, those thugs. And cheat Shizuo finishes everything up again, hai hai. The animation was sure funny though during his part.

-Anri should have not given Izaya a weapon...
-Why... did Masaomi quit school? That felt really sudden.
-Izaya getting punched was awesome.
-For once, Saki's face didn't remind me of a snake.

LOL Izaya.
Saki's hospital stay has been way too long :P
@the Russian conversation, I thought there were going to be subs in Japanese when they spoke in Russian? Or is that what happened, and you guys translated that... anyway, thanks very much to those who did
Izaya doesn't want to lose to Shizuo?
There was parkouring in this episode? :3
