Mikado feels the pressure of becoming a main character?

Durarara 10 review!

Today’s episode has us following Mikado and how he slowly begins to step up to the plate of being a main character, not that he wasn’t already he was just not involved as much as he is now. We start out Mikado inviting Kiba over to explain some strange girl he saved, Kiba being himself jokes around not really believing his friends story but seems to go along with it anyway. The next morning at school Kiba and a few other classmates put a game together to guess who in the school belongs to the famous dollars gang, Kiba has one class mate in mind finding him on the roof but Mikado doesn’t believe just asking point blank are you in the dollars? works. Kiba proves that theory wrong quickly asking the student and getting a honest yes answer during the chat Mikado seems excited after the student claims hes that famous one this makes Mikado happy feeling as if hes important.

While Mikado attempts to leave the school he is stopped by two strange people from a gang wanting to teach Mikado a lesson, but they are stopped by a very strange team up between Celty and Izaya they save Mikado only because both have a need for him not sure what Izaya wants from him. Celty on the other hand has a need for Mikado after she makes up a blunt lie that doesn’t fool him. Mikado does ask to see under Celty’s helmet to see if the urban legend is true she agrees showing Mikado setting Celty’s story straight with him after convincing him to let her meet the girl with her head they go to Mikado’s apartment, little do they know the Yagiri pharmacy sent the “cleaners” to recover the girl only to find shes missing.

Strangely Izaya and Celty rush in as the cleaners run away kind of saving Mikado after hearing where they were from Mikado suddenly has a strange look in his eye piecing everything together. Celty’s story, the missing people, the pharmacy,Seiji and Anri’s missing friend Mikado claims he has all the cards in his hand and logs into the Dollars website asking for help from the members now this is where things get tricky, was Mikado a member of dollars all along? or was this his first time logging into the site? or my idea Mikado is the true leader of Dollars? very interesting ideas. The episode ends with Izaya claiming he found the jackpot with Mikado.

Final thoughts on this episode, I was very happy to see Mikado stepping into his role finally involved in the plot makes me excited to see how things continue to play out. A few things I was left thinking when kiba and Mikado are asking the student about the dollars after Kiba blanks out for a few minutes after hearing something about the yellow scarfs and blue squares, I have a feeling Kiba is still involved in some gang activities still. Also i think Mikado is a member of dollars already but not sure i do think its a possibility he could be the leader instead  I think that would be fun if it were true, but  I cant say for sure could be wrong on that but still fun to think! anyways cant wait for more ! !
