Added DiffLines:

* BirdsOfAFeather: He gets along well with fellow ManipulativeBastard Aoba, likely due in part to their shared hatred of Izaya Orihara.


Added DiffLines:

* AmbiguousSituation: He first encountered Izaya about mocking a game he made, but Izaya only gave Shinra a copy, so how he got ahold of one is a mystery.


Added DiffLines:

* SitcomArchNemesis: He serves as this to Izaya and is probably the only person to get under his skin more than Shizuo. He went as far as to post a photo of him cross-dressing in retaliation for using his name.

[[folder:Shinichi Tsukumoya]]
An enigmatic internet-based information broker who claims to be online 24/7.

* AdaptedOut: While his role wasn't very big in the novels, but everything he does is omitted in the anime. He's only alluded to in an OVA where he photoshops a picture of Izaya cross-dressing and enters it in a contest as retaliation for the info broker using his name.
* AmbiguouslyHuman: It's heavily implied Shinichi is not a human, but some sort of artificial intelligence or supernatural internet being, as he's able to comb through his clients' personal computers without hacking them and other online maneuvers that should not be possible.
* TheGadfly: He pisses off Izaya Orihara on a regular basis, and has done so since the latter was in high school. After the Hollywood arc, he reveals to Izaya all the stuff he missed out on, taunting him over it until Izaya actually threatens him.
