4* Apparently, Celty is afraid of aliens.
5--> '''Celty:''' "What if it was a space alien?!"\
6'''Shinra:''' "...Celty...is this where I'm supposed to laugh?"
7* It's safe to say anytime that Shingen is onscreen, there is bound to be hilarity. Other moments include Shinra accidentally (he thought it was Celty) walking on him in the shower. As well as the whole argument where Shinra and Celty are trying to get Shingen's blessing.

12* [[http://anni-fiesta.livejournal.com/32129.html The Omake Story]] "Everyone Gets Along," ...a lot of it, but mostly [[{{BlatantLies}} Erika's explanation of how she and Walker met Kadota]] and Shizuo imagining Izaya eating hot-pot all alone, in an ImagineSpot strangely reminiscent of "[[http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/forever-alone forever alone]]."
13* The prequel story to SH, Nicococo!!, is hilarious.
14** Celty attempts to create a video game walkthrough to post online and selects a game with 'Blue Kappas' as the monsters. Her logic is 'if they're not aliens, they won't scare her'. She is found an hour later hiding in the closet and nearly attacks Shinra when he finds her, as the monsters were actually aliens, they were just called 'Kappas'. Even better, when Shinra asks her what sort of game she tried to play, Celty tells him it was a farming simulator.
15** Later, Celty and Shinra decide to play an 'unknown' and 'super-hard' game. Said game happens to be one made by none other than Izaya Orihara when he was in high school. He created it with the sole purpose of testing someone's patience. The game starts out easy enough, however after ten seconds, the character falls down a hole ''and never stops''. After a while, a seemingly endless block of text appears beside the character as it falls, mocking Celty and Shinra for several minutes before Celty tries to close the game. This opens up ANOTHER block of text that once again taunts Celty.
16** Celty opening up the game and seeing the title.
17--> '''Game Text:''' "Fiendishly Hard! Izaya City! Or, a Challenge From Izaya!"
18-->'''Celty:''' "I'm sorry, Shinra. I'm pissed already."
19** The absolute amount of trolling in the game:
20--> '''Game Text''': "Your character simply keeps falling, and falling, and falling, towards the bottom of a dark pit. Rather than crushing to the ground and meeting his end from the impact and the pain, he just keeps falling, feeling his fear. Eventually, fear turns into anxiety. The end doesn't exist, does it? Without hope for an end, wouldn't it be that I can only keep falling forever, and death is not even an option? The anxiety then turns into a sense of loss. Both fear and anxiety are uprooted from his heart, and he falls prey to the feeling that he was losing his own past and his feelings. But wait, he might be thinking like this: do I still have those feelings to begin with? My life ended when I fell into this pit. Didn't I leave my memories, my feelings, even my reason for existing behind me, on the sun-lit grounds above this pit? What am I, then? Still falling, he now loses even the will to consider the meaning of his existence. Why was I even born, if the only thing I'm allowed to do is to fall?...With that thought on his mind, your pathetic character becomes one with the act of falling, which is now his symbol. If he had any emotions left to speak of, it would be a hatred towards you, dear player. Why did you so carelessly take that step? If you knew that Orihara Izaya was behind this game, why did you still allow yourself to be carried away by the fantasy that the floor was just what it seemed – the floor? It was all your fault. You were the reason your character lost everything and ended up trapped in this monotonic falling motion. I can't forgive myself I can't forgive myself I can't I can't I can't I can't I can't I can't...that's what you're thinking, isn't it? Well, there's no need to feel guilty, for the same is true for you. Doesn't this character – with only those pitiful excuses for residual images to prove that he is still falling – seem to symbolize your own life, dear player? How much time did you already spend on this game? In this meaningless game, have you been able to find anything that you can call nourishment for your life? Oh, you're saying that you're only playing it to kill some time? Have you been able to kill any, I wonder? Or did you simply compound it by burdening yourself with this difficult task, which is making your life even more unwieldy for you than before? If there is nothing to distract you from your boredom except pain, then alas, you're really no different from this character, who just keeps falling, and falling – "
21* When the twins start their first day at Raira, there's a small part where their teachers nervously discuss the fact that the their last name is ''Orihara'', and that they are the younger sisters of ''Izaya'' Orihara.
22* The 'Bloody White Day' story. In high school, one Valentine's Day, Izaya sent every girl a fake love note from Shishizaki, whom they were all infatuated with. This lead to them all getting in trouble for skipping class to get candy. On White Day, Izaya sent cutesy, hand-made love notes to every boy in the school, instructing them to meet up later with candy. Despite his suspicions, Shizuo complied, and as the first one there, he was assumed to be the culprit. Needless to say, it ended in a very large, very one-sided fight.
23* The girls' cooking skills are ranked. Mika scores a perfect one hundred, Namie scores ninety-five, Erika scores seventy, Anri scores thirty-five, Celty scores thirty and somehow Emilia scores ''negative twenty''.
24* Mairu is introduced by reading porn in the middle of class and commenting very loudly.
25* Unlike the anime which plays it off as his [[FeelNoPain humorously]] [[BelatedInjuryRealization high]] [[MajorInjuryUnderreaction threshold]], Shizuo's obtuse logic of whether bandages or instant glue would be better for when he pulls the pen that Seiji stabbed him with out is due mostly from the fact [[AlcoholInducedStupidity he's wasted]].
26* In a special 2020 crossover with ''Literature/{{Baccano}}'', Celty goes to New York to do courier jobs for Nebula. She very quickly gets lost when Shingen sends her only [[ComplexityAddiction cryptic messages]] in the place of actual directions for no explainable reason.
27** It's also pretty funny to learn that as corrupt and sketchy as Nebula is, they follow pandemic protocol to the letter and even have Celty and Shooter heavily sterilized upon entering the US.

31* Masaomi's recap of the first time he saw Anri.
32-->'''Masaomi:''' "Cute smile... bitchin' boobs... ! Okay, so maybe she wasn't smiling..."
33* Episode 3:
34** "Sooo... let's go pick up chicks!" Already one of Masaomi's funniest non-sequiturs, immediately followed by a MatchCut to him attempting to pick up girls. Adult women. From their point of view.
35** Izaya [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9hBE2jAaVI laughing as he's stomping on a cell phone]]. It gets even funnier as he stops ''mid-stomp'' and simply says, "And now I'm bored," and moves on.
36** Out of nowhere, a trash can flies from off-screen to hit Izaya in the face, sending him sprawling on the ground. Kida cringes but Mikado just stares.
37--> '''Mikado:''' That was like... A ''convenience store trash can... that came flying at us''! But why?
38--> '''Masaomi:''' [[OhCrap Holy shit...]]
39** ...and then, as Izaya [[MajorInjuryUnderreaction just springs back up on his feet none for the worse]], [[IncomingHam enter Shizuo]].
40** Shizuo's punch sends a gang member flying through the air, and ''his clothes fly off!''
41** Simon jumps down from the top floor of a six-story building to catch the vending machine thrown by Shizuo. This is right after delivering sushi to a good customer on said top floor.
42* "Actually, I ''am'' seducing you."
43** And she looks so hot doing it!
44* Whenever Erika has a YaoiFangirl moment. She has shown a particular liking for a Shizuo/Izaya pairing as shown when Shizuo says he's going to Izaya's place (to murder him...) and she sparkles with blush stickers saying that he must love him. Everyone (Celty and Kadota's group) cuts her off with a BigNo.
45--> '''Shizuo:''' "I'm off to Shinjuku to murder Izaya."
46--> '''Erika:''' "Hey, hey! Shizu-chan's definitely in love with Izaya. Two guys... Like BL!"
47--> '''Celty, Saburo, Kadota and Walker:''' "No!"
48* Simon trying to get his Russia Sushi signs in front of the TV cameras.
49* Masaomi compares things to polygamy and voicing his approval. It's ridiculous enough by itself, but then Mikado just says, Ployga-what?
50* "Call me 'daddy!'" (Holds up sign).
51** "Why the hell is there [[ImprovisedWeapon a sign post]] in the middle of the road?"
52* Really, all of Episode 6 is a CMOF, from the kidnappers spilling chloroform on themselves to Saburo's face at the concert to Kadota [[DidIJustSayThatOutLoud forgetting to keep his internal monologue internal from Erika and Walker]] to "Sparkling naked~!" to Shizuo throwing a plastic elephant at Izaya... and also, the dog.
53* From Episode 7: "Shizuo acting like he in puberty?" Oh Simon...
54* In Episode 7, Shizuo gets fired from one of his jobs by beating up the Franchise/PowerRangers. Made all the more hilarious when you realize that [[Creator/JohnnyYongBosch Izaya's voice actor]] was a former Power Ranger.
55* Episode 7: Shizuo's remark about how much Shinra's changed after Raira.
56-->'''Shizuo''': "This idiot -- well he's the same."
57* In Episode 10:
58** Mikado's brain goes into overdrive when he mistakenly believes Anri is a StalkerWithACrush (due to her joking around with him). On the flip side, if she's cute then maybe it's okay to be stalked. But then, Mikado starts to [[ImagineSpot imagine puppet show scenarios]] where Anri goes {{Yandere}}. Scene 1, stabbing him with a knife. Scene 2, burning his house down. Scene 3, kidnapping his parents. [[spoiler: Of course, this becomes somewhat HilariousInHindsight when it's revealed that Anri is the wielder of Saika, an EvilWeapon with Yandere tendencies towards humanity.]]
59** What follows after that is Mikado and Anri meeting the ringleader of Ganguros and her second boyfriend, looking to get payback for her cellphone getting stomped by Izaya in episode 3. Mikado's [[OhCrap face]] [[BlueWithShock upon remembering what happened]] sells it.
60*** In addition, the exchange that follows:
61--> '''Ringleader's Boyfriend''': So, you're friends with the guy who broke my girlfriend's cell?
62--> '''Mikado''': Well, I wouldn't really call him my friend...
63--> '''Ringleader's Boyfriend''': Then what is he? Your [[TeenPregnancy parent?!]] A cosigner[[note]]basically, a person paying off someone else's debt[[/note]]?! Huh?!
64--> '''Mikado''': I think your assumptions are a tad biased...
65** Celty's attempt at lying to Mikado about [[spoiler:Mika]] being her lost relative. Mikado sees right through it, and again, his face sells it.
66--> '''Celty''': I'm looking for a girl. She's a relative of mine, who's gone missing. I found her yesterday, but then she ran away for some reason.
67--> '''Mikado (Wide Eyed)''': It's a terrible liar.
68** Izaya jumping up and down on the back of a thug, then following Mikado home with Celty making ''motorcycle noises'' all the way.
69** Later in the episode, Saburo goes ballistic when a vehicle dents his van with a ''pebble'' and chases after it.
70* In Episode 11, [[spoiler:[[Literature/{{Baccano}} Isaac and Miria]] are apparently members of the Dollars]]. This being [[spoiler:Isaac and Miria]], even a minor cameo manages to be amusing.
71** There's also Shizuo's "conversation" with Simon:
72-->'''Shizuo:''' "What's the meaning of life? What's the reason we're here?" Some guy asked me that once and I responded by pummeling his pathetic ass to chum. I get an emo kid in junior high asking that, but a 20-something yakuza? That's just wrong.
73* In the epilogue of Episode 12, Mikado works up the courage to ask Anri out, finds Kida trying to flirt with her, and, finally fed up with it, lays him out on the ground with a kick. Here's how it goes down, as narrated by Celty:
74-->'''Celty:''' "In 30 seconds, the boy will find the girl. In 35 seconds, the boy will discover his best friend hitting on the girl. In 45 seconds, the boy will kick the crap outta him. In 74 seconds, the girl will reject the boy's offer to get coffee. And in 78 seconds, that girl will ask the boy to have lunch with her on the roof."
75* Episode 12.5, Izaya tells some guys that Shizuo stole something from them... This goes about as well for them as you'd expect, and as they're flying out the window in plain view of everyone, Izaya remarks:
76--> [[DevilInPlainSight "It's kinda scary how much people trust me."]]
77** There's also Saburo and Kadota having an OhCrap moment with armed syndicate men.
78---> '''Saburo''': What's with the guns?!
79---> '''Kadota''': We're still in Japan, right?!
80*** Walker getting WrongGenreSavvy when he thinks his idea for a technothriller novel are coming to life.
81----> '''Walker''': What is going on? Is the good lord ripping off my own novel? Do they have mind-reading devices too? Everything I wrote is being played out right before me.
82*** Even Walker gets WrongGenreSavvy on a bag that contains nothing [[spoiler:but clothes and Onigiri]].
83-----> '''Walker''': [The bag] probably contains an ultimate built to destroy the entire human race. ''(Kadota opens bag)'' No! Don't open it! It's going to blow up! ''(nothing happens)'' Or maybe not.
84-----> '''Kadota''': Guess that alien was going on vacation.
85** All of the English spoken in this episode. It's just all so terrible.
86* Shinra walked into a shower. He was expecting Celty. His face was of utter glee. Then he sees his father in the shower.
87-->'''Celty:''' "What's wrong?"
88-->'''Shinra:''' "I have seen the face of hell..."
89* In Episode 14, Shingen is trying to cheapskate his way out of paying Celty for transporting him. Celty uses her darkness... stuff to wrap Shingen's neck in thorny vines.
90--> '''Shingen:''' "I was just testing you, Celty-kun. If you release me now--Ow ow ow they're poking me! Those pointy shadow things pricked me a little! Shinra! I am in grave danger here!" ''(Struggling)'' "If you are my son, you should know what you need to do!"
91--> '''Shinra:''' "Of course I do" ''(Pickpockets Shingen's wallet and throws it to Celty.)''
92** And right after it, as Shinra declares that he would be happy if Celty stole his soul, she blows a heart-shape from her head smoke.
93* In Episode 15, Izaya meets Shuuji Niekawa, Haruna's father, and recaps his encounter with Shizuo back in episode 7.
94-->'''Izaya:''' "Six months ago, you approached Shizuo. That's when you and an innocent lamppost sailed across the night sky."
95** As Mr. Niekawa leaves, Izaya gives him a rather late warning.
96-->'''Izaya:''' "Oh, and here's one little bit of advice for ya. Whatever you do, don't talk to Shizu-chan about his younger brother."
97-->'''Shuuji:''' ''(thinking)'' "[[NowYouTellMe Wish you'd told me that six months ago]]."
98* In Episode 15, Celty and Shizuo (who was wearing a helmet Celty gave him) are approached by Horada and his gang, whom wanted Celty. Shizuo, still furious after hearing Celty was slashed earlier, confronts them.
99--> '''Shizuo:''' You know looks can kill, right? You may not know this, but according to statistics, the chances of a stare killing a guy are .00000000000675%.\
100'''Horada:''' Just what the hell are you trying to say, huh?! Bartender? [[OhCrap B-Barten... Aw, crap!]]\
101'''Shizuo:''' So if you give someone stink-eye, ''THEN YOU CAN'T COMPLAIN IF THEY KILL YOU, CAN YOU?!''\
102''(beats up Horada and his thugs)''
103* Somewhere in the series, Shinra, calls Celty "Enchantress". Take note, Celty's English voice actress Creator/KariWahlgren played Amora the Enchantress of ''WesternAnimation/TheAvengersEarthsMightiestHeroes''.
104* In episode 17, a desperate Nasujima [[MuggingTheMonster attempts to rob Shizuo]]. Naturally, it doesn't work out for him.
105* In episode 17, we see that having Walker replace the door to Saburo's van (which was ripped off by Shizuo earlier) was ''not'' a good idea.
106* In episode 21, some goons from the Yellow Scarves were assaulting people, but when they run into a certain character in a bartender suit...
107-->'''Thug:''' Yo, dude! You just gonna smack into me like that and not say anything?! ''(realizes who it is)'' Oh, hey...\
108''(Shizuo turns around)''\
109'''Thug:''' Sh-Sh-Shizuo... Heiwa...\
110'''Shizuo:''' Huh?\
111'''Thug:''' ...jima!\
112'''Shizuo:''' ([[DeathGlare death glares]]) ''HUH?!?!''\
113(The Yellow Scarves back off)
114* Shizuo seems to have a bad memory when it comes to Anri. When he meets her for the second time in episode 22, she thanks him for saving her from Horada and his goons and he responds by saying "Who are you again?" Then, in the ''very next episode'', they meet again in Shinra's apartment:
115--> '''Anri:''' Shizuo, what are you doing here?
116--> '''Shizuo:''' Huh? Man, this sucks. Who are you again?
117* Episode 23, Shizuo explains what happened to him in the previous episode to Shinra:
118--> '''Shizuo:''' At first, I thought it was nothing, that I had just fallen down 'cause I slipped in the rain. But then I saw blood, and noticed it was coming from my own leg and stomach. Then I realized, "[[CaptainObvious Hey, I've been shot]]." I was getting ready to kill the guys who shot me, but before I could get to my feet, they all ran off.\
119'''Shinra:''' ''(to Anri)'' Pretty dumb, huh?\
120'''Shizuo:''' ([[DeathGlare glares]]) ''Wanna live?''\
121'''Shinra:''' ''(on his hands and knees)'' My profound and sincere apologies!
122* The ChaseScene in Episode 24 combines this with SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome, mostly because Horada and his lackeys are ''completely'' out of their league against Shizuo and Celty, and their faces when they realize it...! Celty "seducing" Shinra later on is also pretty dang hilarious.
123* Episode 25 is pretty much 30 minutes of Crowning Moment of Hilarious Awesome. From Yuhei's TV segments, Shinra being Shinra, and Simon's sushi hocking to the parkour fight, Erika being Erika and the twins being the twins, it's just, to quote Izaya, "fun." It's funny when the fighting starts to spread throughout Ikebukuro just 'cause of Izaya and Shizuo trying to fight with each other.
124** The final episode has [[spoiler:Izaya getting a shiner from Simon.]]
125* Season 2 Episode 4: Erika and Walker get into an [[LampshadeHanging argument]] over whether Celty counts as a {{Tsundere}}.
126* In Season 2 Episode 4, several guys from Toramaru try to attack Tom, but accidentally hit Shizuo instead.
127-->'''Shizuo:''' What the hell, man? ''(notices the sleeve to his shirt has been ripped)'' My shirt. My little brother gave this shirt to me. '''''YOU GUYS ARE DEEEEAD!!!!'''''\
128''(Tom sympathetically prays for the poor thugs as Shizuo beats the living crap out of them)''
129* In Season 2 Episode 12, Shizuo's expression after Vorona stabs him is like he's just wondering if she is an idiot. Heck just Shizuo in that episode is just so hilarious that I ended up rewatching it several times.
130--> '''Shizuo:''' ''(after Vorona stabs him and runs off)'' Normally, I'm not in the habit of beating up women... ''BUT YOU BETTER BE FREAKIN' READY FOR ME TO CRUSH THAT EXPENSIVE-LOOKING HELMET RIGHT BETWEEN MY FINGERS!!!''
131* Erika groping (and tickling) Anri, then being restrained by Kadota in Season 2 Episode 12.
132* If you're into BlackComedy, Yodogiri tells Izaya on the phone that he needs to take a break. Said break consists of him being stabbed with a knife on the streets of Ikebukuro.
133** Izaya later returns the favor, [[IronicEcho using the same line]], by having him hit by a car.
134* Season 2 Episode 13, a guy attempts to skip out on paying his debt by threatening to tell everyone Kasuka has a thug (Shizuo) for a brother. Guess how Shizuo responds to that.
135* Shinra's HaHaHaNo moment after Izaya trolls him by handing his cellphone number to the police.
136-->'''Izaya:''' "So how's it going? Did this little bit of trauma give you lover's goose pimples? You can admit it. I bet it did, right? Hope your hearts don't explode from the suspense."\
137 '''Shinra:''' "Ah hah hah, yeah. Wouldn't you like to know. I hope the suspense kills you."
138* When Vorona asks Shizuo on what kind of martial art allows you to flick someone without exerting a lot of efforts, Shizuo tells her that it's from the same martial arts that teaches you to smack people.
139* After getting ambushed by Izumii, Walker happily realizes that he needs a hideout. Cue him and Saburo, alongside other people, crashing at Shinra's home.
140* In Season 2 Episode 25, "Even A Chance Acquaintance is Decreed by Fate", continuous hilarity occurs when Celty comes back to her and Shinra's apartment to find ''everybody'' crammed in there.
141** Mika and Namie both fawning over Seiji while slinging insults at each other.
142** When Celty criticizes Namie for her amorality, Namie reminds Celty that Shinra had a part in [[spoiler:hiding her head]], to which Celty says Shinra has been on the receiving end of her fury. "Please, I'm sure you just smacked him once, then messed around in the most disgusting way. Just like a beast." Celty shoots a cloud of shadow out of her neck like a volcano and immediately types, "HOW DID YOU KNOW!?"
143** Celty worries about what "That pervert" Izaya is doing with her head, to which Shinra assures her that Izaya is only interested in humans. "I'm sure he's treating your head like a mere ball, or, at most an expensive vase or something". Celty says he isn't helping her at all!
144** Celty has absolutely no idea who Egor is and just gets confused as to why the hell he's there.
145** Celty's inability to remember Saburo's name.
146--> '''Saburo:''' (''to Celty'') "After all this time, you still don't know my name??"
147*** Also, in an episode of the previous season, Anri admitted that she, too, forgets "the driver guy's" name.
148** It's proposed the people staying in the apartment form a guild rather than a gang. Walker apparently thinks guilds automatically involve swords and dragons.
149** Celty is extremely exhausted after having to make room assignments for everyone, and has issues with Mika and Namie who both want to sleep with Seiji but don't want the other to, so Celty comes up with a compromise by having them sleep together without Seiji, who has to sleep with Shingen and Emilia. He discovers, much to his horror, that Shingen sleeps with his mask on.
150** Namie is particularly difficult to deal with and keeps insulting Celty before revealing Izaya has her head and starts claiming he's dating it. Seiji also learns that, as a kid, he was always wearing Namie's old pajamas and not boy ones like he thought.
151* When [[http://herskyofdiamonds.tumblr.com/post/101357980275/orihara-kururi-orihara-mairu-then-have-you the twins meet up with Shizuo.]]
152* In [=S2E29=], Shooter appears before Shizuo [[spoiler:while following Celty through the city in her primal form,]] stopping to get his help. Beckoning him to get on, Shizuo replies that he's never ridden a horse before. The horse proceeds to turn into bike-form... only for Shizuo to say that he doesn't have a motorcycle license. Cue Shooter absorbing the [[spoiler:bicycle that Shizuo got from a bunch of [[BrattyHalfPint Bratty Half-Pints]]]] trying to be tough on him earlier, with any sounds of whinnies replaced with a [[spoiler:bicycle bell]]. Did we mention that Shooter still rockets around at the same speed as he usually does?
153* Season 2 Episode 31, seeing himself in Shinra's apartment with Walker, Namie, Mika, Seiji, and Emilia, Saburo can't help but question everyone's sanity.
154--> '''Saburo:''' Oh, brother. [[OnlySaneMan Am I the only normal person here]]?
155* Season 2 Episode 31, Chikage Rokujo tells Masaomi about women and how you can't keep secrets from them:
156--> '''Chikage:''' Hell, I don't even try to hide my cheating from my honeys.
157--> '''Masaomi:''' It's amazing you still got honeys to cheat on.
158* In the x2 Shou OVA, Shinra wants to call Izaya over to the hot pot party to confirm a story about him and Celty, but Kadota (wisely) stops him because Shizuo was there.
159--> '''Kadota:''' "Do you want Shizuo to trash the place?!"
160-->''(Shinra, upon noticing Shizuo looking around the room with great fury, turns off his phone)''
161* In the x2 Ten OVA, Shinra goes through TickleTorture for erasing Celty's recording.
162* In the x2 Ten OVA, Shinra reminisces about inviting Shizuo and Izaya to their coming of age ceremony, thinking it would be fun if they all attended.
163** When Shinra invites them, both bluntly decline the invite. However, the two end up going, but only because Shinra annoyed them enough.
164** During the ceremony, neither Shizuo nor Izaya is seen, but one can infer from the flying vending machine, followed by the flying Shinra.
165--->'''Shinra:''' "Yeah, that ceremony sure was a lot of fun."
166--->'''Celty:''' "You were terrified."
167* In the x2 Ten OVA, Shinra tells Celty that he has some dirt on Izaya from middle school. Cut to a flashback of Izaya haughtily talking about how much he doesn't like dogs vs his love for humans. The camera then zooms out, revealing him clinging to a pole for dear life surrounded by a group of dogs.
168--->'''Celty:''' "You know, he probably wanted you to help him..."
169** Shinra gets fed up with Izaya's attempts at calling him and threatens to talk about the incident... directly after he told Celty the whole story.
170** The dub is even funny:
171--->'''Shinra:''' "Listen, stop calling me or I'm gonna spill the beans about you, the dogs and the pole, got it?!"
172** There's also Shinra's talk with the police:
173-->'''Shinra:''' [about Izaya] "Does he have enemies? [[LongList Too many to name]], if you want the truth."
174* In the x2 Ketsu OVA, a fat man named Shizuo Nobusuma tries to get an easy life by impersonating Shizuo Heiwajima. He goes around trying to squeeze loot from others and although everyone knows he's a fake, they play along and give into his demands out of pity, knowing that the real Shizuo will beat him to a bloody pulp when he finds out. Then after getting pummeled by Vorona and duped by Izaya, Nobusuma eventually runs into the ''real'' Shizuo and gets punched into the sky for kicking Kasuka's car. Days later, Nobusuma decides to impersonate Kyohei Kadota and his first targets are Walker and Erika. He is easily defeated by the real Kadota and [[LaserGuidedKarma tortured by Walker and Erika]]. Now, one would be smart enough to call it quits after that, but apparently Nobusuma [[TooDumbToLive is a very slow learner.]] Days later, he starts to impersonate the Headless Rider, only to get beaten up by Celty herself.
175** Also, in the OVA, Tsukumoya gets even with Izaya for using his name by forging an image of Izaya cross-dressing and entering it in a drag queen contest.
176* In ''Eloquent and Competent'', Celty is pulled over by the cops and tries LoopholeAbuse by stating her vehicle is legally exempt from having headlights and a license plate because horses aren't required to have them. The cops play along as she 'yells' at them for trying to arrest her when they knew what she was doing was legal... up until they point out that even if it's a horse, she's still been riding it like a motorcycle and has been going way past the posted speed limit, which every vehicle must abide by. They then proceed to write up a ticket and ask for her license and registration, only to find out she's done a StealthHiBye and has dashed off already.
177-->'''Kinnosuke:''' Goddamnit, '''Halt!'''\
178'''Celty:''' ''(shaking in fear)'' Eeeeeeeeee!
179* Someone hacks into Izaya's Kanra account and starts posting information about a possible gang war. The new person annoys everyone, especially with the fact that they end all their sentences in [[VerbalTic ''meow'']], which even Izaya is frustrated by. Later, it's revealed the mystery poster was none other than ''Kasane Kujiragi'' of all people, and when asked by Izaya is the 'meow' tic was to mess with him, she explains she legitimately thought it was cute.
180* Walker squees when he learns about Saika from Anri and is well-prepared to unlock whatever hidden powers he wants to get from getting slashed by her, only she points out what actually happens and disappoints him...for a bit, because he can't stop his excitement from learning Saika even exists.
181* Erika blending in with the hundreds of Saika-possessed zombies: she just puts on red contacts and pretends to be a zombie. This completely fools everyone around her (except Haruna, who was revealed to be faking being "submissive").
182** When she meets up with her friends, Walker freaks out by her red eyes and has to restrain her so that Anri can dispel the "curse" from her. Kyohei stops them by pointing out her crazy behavior meant she was no zombie.
183* While it's a pretty badass scene overall when Celty is finally reunited with her head, while she's passing by Izaya, he tries speaking with her only for the dullahan to not recognize him. It's pretty funny in hindsight given that Celty had not, in fact, lost her memories and knew very well who Izaya was, plus the fact that she actually got away with it despite being a poor liar.
184* The final Shizuo vs Izaya battle can be somewhat comedic (for a little while). While fighting, they occasionally move somewhat slowly with their arms and legs flailing, made all the more hilarious by the NoodlePeople limbs.
185* Celty's serious ButNowIMustGo gets completely wrecked once Shinra flies by at top speed because he had Shizuo "kick his ass into orbit" to reach her. This causes her to lose her cool that even her stoic head freaks out.

189* In Chapter 10 of the manga, there's a comedic page featuring Harima and her six phases of stalking. Let's just say it goes from Harima's victim showing natural human kindness to Harima following the poor guy on a family vacation.
190* In Chapter 12, Izaya is giving Namie work to do, starting with doing paperwork and mailing things and ending with what answers to put into his CrosswordPuzzle.
191--->'''Namie:''' "What horrible person designed this crossword?"
192* There's something oddly comedic about the 'Re; Dollars Arc' art style. It has more realism and detail than any other adaptation and gets rid of the NoodlePeople proportions. Oh, and there's the fact that everything is absurdly pretty, did we mention that?
193* This might be more on the fridge side, but when Izaya is talking about Masaomi, he refers to him as 'a king he can sacrifice'. That is exactly how one loses at chess.
194* In ''Minidura'', Izaya obtains the copyright for the Black Rider and makes a profit producing and selling massive amounts of merchandise which cover the city. Shinra and Celty are none too pleased, but when they confront him about it, Izaya explains that if they sue they'll get in trouble with immigration since Celty is an illegal alien. Shinra then ends up being bought off when Izaya offers him a special Celty body pillow. It also later turns out Izaya somehow managed to copyright Shizuo as well.

200* The HilariousOuttakes are...well, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin quite hilarious]]. Creator/SteveBlum definitely takes the cake, though.
201--> '''Kadota (Creator/SteveBlum):''' (Hands Mikado a [[SubliminalAdvertising thinly-veiled]] can of Red Bull) "Like roofies?"
202--> '''Mikado:''' "Oh, thank you."
203--> '''Kadota:''' "You know this means we're going steady now."
204** Kadota: "She can see into your bedroom, you know. She knows you're wearing her panties again."
205** So much VA {{Lampshading}}. Particularly:
206---> '''Horada (Creator/KyleHebert):''' "'''''CAUSE THIS IS THE WAY [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann TEAM GURREN]] ROLLS!!'''''"
207** Creator/CrispinFreeman's lines are the best, mainly because he never breaks his Shizuo voice.
208---> ''(To Izaya's sisters)'' [[Film/RobinHoodPrinceOfThieves "You at ten. You at ten-thirty. Bring a friend.]]"
209---> ''(To Izaya, on the phone)'' "Let me guess, he just ''happened'' to live in Ikebukuro, and he just ''happened'' to see him on TV, and that's why he came by. And he just ''happened'' to bring a ''knife'' with him, too! Tch... [[HoYay you just wanna sleep with me, don't you?]]"
210---> ''(To Shinra on how he's still standing)'' "Cause you're Creator/YuriLowenthal, and [[Anime/{{Noein}} I'm standing in your bedroom once again]]."
211** Yuri Lowenthal is pretty great, too.
212---> "In medical terms, you got fuckin' ''shot'', son!"
213* This one {{Lampshades}} one of Creator/JohnnyYongBosch's previous roles...
214-->'''Izaya ([[Creator/JohnnyYongBosch Bosch]]):''' "And ''why'' do I deserve to get my ass kicked, Shizu-chan?"
215-->'''Shizuo (Creator/CrispinFreeman):''' "Because you were a [[Franchise/PowerRangers Power Ranger]]!"
216* This one comes from the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysDntiqVX0w first two]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_uGC5o1rjM preview videos]] of the dub cast--when Creator/CrispinFreeman's talking about Shizuo's [[BadassInANiceSuit fashion sense]], he offhandedly notes something Creator/JohnnyYongBosch had said in ''his'' interview about Izaya. Deja vu is noted.
217-->'''Crispin:''' "I mean, I don't know who this clown is who's walking around like an eskimo... (Braking tires are heard as the camera closes in on the DRRR poster behind him.) ''Wait... [[{{Flashback}} that sounds familiar]]...''"
218-->'''Johnny:''' "...[Izaya's parka] is really hip, especially with eskimos..."
219** Which is then [[RunningGag repeated]] in part three of the HilariousOuttakes:
220--->'''Creator/CrispinFreeman''': "...Stupid eskimo."
221* Apparently, according to the author, if Erika ever got slashed by Saika, her love of 2D would be enough to overwhelm it and she would spend all her time making every anime weapon she could think of.
