Line 7:
== The main character isn't from Baccano. Instead ==
...It's {{spoiler|[[Durarara!!|Orihara Izaya]] }}
== Rachel is related to Huey Laforet, possibly his Homunculus ==
Line 20:
== Ladd's promise to kill Lua is rooted in insecurity from his past. ==
It's possible that due to the murder of his former fiancee, Ladd is afraid that if he doesn't kill Lua himself, someone else will and he doesn't want to go through that again. His constant reminder to her that he's going to be the one to kill her is as much a reassurance to himself as it is to her.
== Isaac and Miria are actually fae. ==
Line 54:
While he knows none of the other characters are really real, he’s still taking a basically “[[Karma Meter|good karma]]” route. Thus, he responds well to friendly characters and those invoking [[Video Game Caring Potential]] (particularly the “family” and “love interest” NPCs), yet easily responds with the [[Sociopathic Hero|traditional]] [[There Is No Kill Like Overkill|player]] [[Video Game Cruelty Potential|response]] to unsympathetic /antagonist characters.
This is also why he’s an [[Badass Normal|ordinary human]] who can still effortlessly take on hordes of mooks and ostensibly more powerful bosses. On top of the usual player character advantages, he’s either good at the game, or simply reloading when he screws up (or both). This is why, despite his ostensible mortality, he’s never worried that he might die- if Claire dies, he can simply reload from last save and do it right.
== The anime exists in the future of the world of the books. ==
Sometime after the events of ''[[Durarara!!]]'', a documentary series is made about the Daily Days' most significant reports, and Isaac and Miria [[As Himself|as themselves]] are invited to do an actors' commentary. The director loved their [[The Ditz|goofy]] little [[Foreshadowing]] [[Obfuscating Stupidity|comments]] over the Next Episode previews, and left them in. To sum up the series' connection to the fictional "reality", it's a release of [[Show Within a Show|a series]] about a report on the events that took place in the books, which in turn ''don't'' exist [[Recursive Reality|within their own continuity]].
== Impossible crossovers ==
Line 83:
Okay, Marlo's a [[Complete Monster]], Claire isn't, but they have a name and a lot else in common. Marlo is separated from previous kingpins due to his lack of remorse or mercy. What's more, he is completely obsessed with himself and his own reputation, he has utterly no conception of any other life but what he's doing now, and he shows impressive fighting skills against multiple armed opponents. Marlo is Claire distilled through generations of Baltimore drug culture. Maybe Claire had a fling with a black girl in Baltimore in the '20s, [[Lamarck Was Right]], and the rest is history.
== The Heiwajimas of ''[[Durarara!!]]'' are descended from Huey Laforet, possibly through Chane and Claire. ==
Huey's descendents have an established tendency to look just like him. Except in eye color, Kasuka Heiwajima looks... a lot like Huey, and almost ''exactly'' like Chane and Claire's great-grandson [http://i726.photobucket.com/albums/ww262/CapZiggy/12_013.jpg Charon Walken], a fact pointed out in-universe. This ancestry also helps to explain Shizuo's [[Super Strength]].
Line 98:
Because that sounds like something they would do.
