History WMG / Durarara

Celty is from UsefulNotes/Ireland (since she's Irish [[HeadlessHorseman dullahan]]), Shizuo is known for being angry (like [[ViolentGlaswegian Glaswegian stereotype]]), and Izaya is known for being manipulating a lot of people to the point [[EvilBrit he could be a Bond villain if you add British accent]]. [[HateAtFirstSight Shizuo hates Izaya]] but Erika and some DRRR fangirls love to pair them together, Shizuo is friendly with Celty (same way how [[{{Scotireland}} Scotland and Ireland are friendly with each other]]), and Izaya has Celty's head, the northern part of her body. In short, DRRR is also an allegory for United Kingdom. (Celty - UsefulNotes/Ireland; Shizuo - UsefulNotes/Scotland; Izaya - UsefulNotes/Britain; Celty's head - UsefulNotes/NorthernIreland)

[[WMG:Izaya is an older alternate universe version of [[LightNovel/{{Bakemonogatari}} Araragi]]]]

It'd explain why there are ads for LightNovel/{{Baccano}} throughout the show even though two of the main characters are around.
* Feels more likely that somebody else from LightNovel/{{Baccano}}'s immortal cast did that, considering that Isaac and Miria never quite figured out what was going on, and only realized they hadn't aged a day in 2001!

[[WMG:Kasuka Heiwajima is directly descended from [[LightNovel/{{Baccano}} Huey Laforet]].]]

[[WMG:Saika is possessed with the spirit of [[LightNovel/{{Baccano}} Graham Specter.]]]]

* With that train of thought, wouldn't that also make Saika like that as well? An alternate reading of this WMG would be that most supernatural beings in Narita-verse (Dullahanas, Demons, Saika,) are similar beings that simply just adapt to whatever culture they were in. For all we know The Vampires in [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vamp! Vamp!]] were granted their abilities the same way the Immortals in LightNovel/{{Baccano}}!.

[[WMG: The events of {{LightNovel/Durarara}} take place in the early timeline of TabletopGame/{{Warhammer 40000}}.]]

[[WMG: Walker is a descendant of Tick/Chic Jefferson from LightNovel/{{Baccano}}]]

I've seen a whole bunch of things connecting ''LightNovel/{{Durarara}}'' and ''Manga/BlackButler'', such as [=AMVs=] and fancomics. While I am aware that these are not canon, ''Manga/BlackButler'' takes place roughly around the late 1880's, which would leave plenty of time for Baccano! to occur without a hitch, and due to the FantasyKitchenSink of the Narita-verse.

[[WMG: The goth-loli girl that passed by Mikado and Kida in the first episode is LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya.]]

[[WMG: Rokujou Chikage from the novels is the son of Firo and Ennis from LightNovel/{{Baccano}}]]

* One can assume Nasujima's in his thirties, probably mid to late. Just [[http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mciqicktEY1rs2ynyo1_500.jpg look]]. He's certainly [[{{Biseinen}} good looking]] [[HotTeacher enough]] to have a pretty daughter [[StrongFamilyResemblance who resembles him]].

Because I think it's pretty clear Izaya's not human. He and the Master are both FauxAffablyEvil [[MagnificentBastard Magnificent]] / ManipulativeBastard [[PsychopathicManchild Psychopathic Manchildren]] with plenty of FoeYay. After [[Recap/DoctorWhoS30E17E18TheEndOfTime "The End of Time"]], he fled to Japan and regenerated. Izaya's fear of death could be related to why the master [[JokerImmunity never dies, even when he's supposed to.]]

Celty is from UsefulNotes/Ireland (since she's Irish [[HeadlessHorseman dullahan]]), Shizuo is known for being angry (like [[ViolentGlaswegian Glaswegian stereotype]]), and Izaya is known for being manipulating a lot of people to the point [[EvilBrit he could be a Bond villain if you add British accent]]. [[HateAtFirstSight Shizuo hates Izaya]] but [[FoeYay Erika and some DRRR fangirls love to pair them together]], Shizuo is friendly with Celty (same way how [[{{Scotireland}} Scotland and Ireland are friendly with each other]]), and Izaya has Celty's head, the northern part of her body. In short, DRRR is also an allegory for United Kingdom. (Celty - UsefulNotes/Ireland; Shizuo - UsefulNotes/Scotland; Izaya - UsefulNotes/Britain; Celty's head - UsefulNotes/NorthernIreland)

* Same voice, both don't get hurt easy (due to the after-effect vampirism), and both have a knack for understanding people. Additionally Izaya's casualness around Celty can be attributed to the fact that he has delt with the supernatural before. The divergence point from Bakemonogatari's timeline is his relationship with Senjougahara. Instead of following up with her after she admits to loving him, he passes up on her offer and later witnesses her in a [[SchoolGirlLesbians relationship with Kanbaru]], and feels a mix of envy and happiness. He realizes his love of human reaction and eventually develops an extended version of [[DissonantSerenity Oshino's attitude]]. He changes his name, fashion, hairstyle, and school. He manages to get his information network setup within a year, and meets Shizuo and Shinra at Raira. Like Araragi, Izaya has two sisters. Their name change can be attributed to the fact that they would want to help Araragi adjust to a new lifestyle.

Celty is a Free Spirit and Shizuo is an Adept. Shizuo and Celty's physiology seems similar to medical science because if it can detect the way that innate magic interacts with flesh. They're all just spirits who awakened early.

[[WMG: Izaya is an incarnation of [[TricksterArchetype Loki.]]]]

[[WMG:Izaya is actually Prussia from Webcomic/AxisPowersHetalia.]]

Celty is from {{Ireland}} (since she's Irish [[HeadlessHorseman dullahan]]), Shizuo is known for being angry (like [[ViolentGlaswegian Glaswegian stereotype]]), and Izaya is known for being manipulating a lot of people to the point [[EvilBrit he could be a Bond villain if you add British accent]]. [[HateAtFirstSight Shizuo hates Izaya]] but [[FoeYay Erika and some DRRR fangirls love to pair them together]], Shizuo is friendly with Celty (same way how [[{{Scotireland}} Scotland and Ireland are friendly with each other]]), and Izaya has Celty's head, the northern part of her body. In short, DRRR is also an allegory for United Kingdom. (Celty - UsefulNotes/Ireland; Shizuo - UsefulNotes/Scotland; Izaya - UsefulNotes/Britain; Celty's head - UsefulNote/NorthernIreland)

[[WMG: Durarara takes place just before the beginning of the [[Shadowrun Sixth World]]]]

[[WMG:Certy is one of [[TopGear The Stig's]] cousins]]

[[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial Simon is awfully insistent in making sure everyone knows that there's no human flesh in his sushi.]] Now the normal conclusion for this sort of thing, [[DysfunctionJunction considering the setting,]] would be that he and Dennis have some sort of SweeneyTodd thing going on, but this seems unlikely, given his pacifist nature and status as TheAtoner. So why is he so hung up cannibalism?

* I personally endorse this theory because otherwise, there are some definite UnfortunateImplications about the black guy being a cannibal, and as you say, he and Dennis aren't the type to pull a SweeneyTodd.
