Maybe I'll skip that one then. Was intrigued because it references the Dullahan.

A Dullahan that is hyped up and then plays second fiddle to the A plot.

Honestly her plot is the only one that gets a not completely shitty climax.

I liked the first season when it came out, like, nine years ago or some shit

I also remember nothing but the flash mob with the Baccano guys, the guy eating ramen while staring longingly at the decapitated head, and KNEE PENS

Baccano was vastly better. The dub was spot fuckin on too.

That's only a very small part of a much larger story.
It's like pulp fiction with its mini stories.

It's leagues better, in both plot and entertainment value, than Eureka 7. I wouldn't say that Durarara is terrible.

Yes skip it.

I recently tried to get into it and I think its just the anime crowd of the era who hyped it up like the people who enjoyed death note for the wrong reasons.

Isn't that a weird comparison to make? The two don't even seem similar at all.

Yeah, I didn't really get that at all from what little I know about Durarara.

Not a good excuse.

Im a serious anime otaku. One that watches art and not just whatever is popular.

Ill pass on many things and watch every genre there ever was.

Some moe can be art and most can be trash for instance.

Durarara isnt BAD but at best its a 7/10 opposed to the fanbase which presents it as a 9/10 if not perfect score.

It has also aged terribly. Its a fad anime that had a lot of network/merch support at a time when your average anime watcher in the US was a brooding outcast teen.

It was the perfect time and audience for the anime to get more success than it deserved and I AM salty about it.

Yes it is.
Most people didn't like it, including you. You're not in the minority.
