DURARARA!! BELONGS TO RYOHGO NARITA! This is a non-profit fangame.

ATTENTION: Even though your laptop will tell you not to download it, it’s safe. It’s only because we’re not an official publisher. My artists and friends tested it. Just hit “Run anyway”.

A RETURN TO IKEBUKURO…

It was another day like any other until a young woman learned that her boss had planned a job transfer for her. Her destination? A city in Tokyo, Japan by the name of Ikebukuro.  The city had been blessed with five years of normalcy,  which made more tourists visit.  Her best friend, Arabella Faraldo, was excited to visit such a grand city so she insisted on joining the young journalist on her journey.  Unbeknownst to them, two famous figures known by its occupants through causing destruction have returned to the city.  With a new gang on the rise,  an unhinged informant with a “love” for humanity, supernatural entities and flying vending machines, the young woman’s new job is the least of her worries as a new Ikebukurian!

Our goal is to make this game feel like a season that left almost every question in the series once unanswered now answered and bringing satisfaction to  current or previous viewers/readers of the series. If you like what you see so far after playing the demo, let us know! 

Oh, and…be careful who you romance.

COMMENCE CELEBRATION OF BIRTH

Hey guys! It just struck midnight! And for me that means my teen years are officially behind me (please help I'm not ready to adult). So to celebrate, it would be really cool if people could spread the word about Ikebukuro Records, the Drrr!! Dating Simulator Demo. Feel free to send asks, draw fanart, do reviews, post jokes, and I might post some art if I feel like it ✌😋 (no stories though. College work says no)

This is to the same tune of Arabella's colour being light pink, but MC's colour is definitely pastel blue in my head. Yes I know there are canon characters with blue as their thing, but pastel blue on MC looks so good! Sure, I permit the occasional divergence kinda like how Arabella can go for simple black and white and still work. Pastel blue just translates to MC for me.

Whenever I see something pastel pink I think "Arabella would have that".

Remember the Hanahaki Disease concept that was scrapped? Here's the other one.

Shizuo Heiwajima is so fucking hard to draw. I always have to go extra with him. Which is something I really don't need because I already am a perfectionist and not only that but his hair is just so ...>stressed inhale<

Watching Code Geass and hearing all the Durarara!! voice actors got me thinking.

Izaya = Lelouch

Shinra = Suzaku

Nunnally = The twins (Mairu lost her eyesight, Kururi lost her ability to walk)

The comparisons are too real. Angsty smart boys with parent issues and a weird obsession with chess. Younger siblings in their care. Childhood friend who's secretly fucked up and who has caused some weird mixed feelings for angsty smart boy about his intentions. Does this make sense?

I'm just saying.
