I just finished watching all 24 episodes of Durarara!!. It's a very interesting anime. Its a story of how different lives are intertwined, whether you're human or otherwise. There were quite a few characters that it took almost the first half of the series just to show the background story of each one of them. It also has a number of interesting twists. At least it got me hooked enough to marathon the whole thing.
The characters were all different; Celty (the headless rider), Mikado (founder of Dollars), Masaomi (shogun of the Yellow Bandanas), Anri (the Slasher), Izaya (information dealer), Shizou (the strongest of fighter), Simon (Russian Sushi seller), Shinra (underground doctor)... and a whole lot more.
Most of the reviews about Durarara!! around the web say that its predecessor is better, Baccano! I can't tell yet because I haven't seen it, yet.
Next up, search for Baccano!.

I love the characters of Durarara!! There's a lot of depth in each of them. I just hope there's a 2nd season since the novel series is still ongoing. They can't end it like that.
I did a look at Durarara!! and its emphasis on chat room psychology. You can read it at: http://www.mangatherapy.com/post/932185689/chatrooms-durarara
I agree. A second season would be nice since there are still quite a lot of issues left unresolved.
