Synopsis
In Tokyo's downtown district of Ikebukuro, amidst many strange rumors and warnings of gangs and dangerous occupants, one urban legend stands out above the rest - the existence of a headless "Black Rider" who is said to be seen driving a jet-black, soundless motorcycle through the city streets.

Mikado Ryuugamine has always longed for the excitement of the city life, and an invitation from a childhood friend convinces him to move to Tokyo. Witnessing the Black Rider on his first day in the city, his wishes already seem to have been granted. But as supernatural events begin to occur, ordinary citizens like himself, along with Ikebukuro's most colorful inhabitants, are mixed up in the commotion breaking out in their city.

The second season of the anime is adapted from light novels four through thirteen and was broken up into three cours of 12 episodes and one OVA each. The second season was announced on Anime News Network on March 15, 2014, and the cours, titled Shou, Ten, and Ketsu, began airing in January 2015, July 2015, and January 2016 respectively. The anime was produced by studio Shuka and subtitled episodes were simulcast by Crunchyroll. The English dub was produced by Aniplex of America.

Each cour of Durarara!!x2 holds a title that follows the classic structure of Japanese storytelling, Kishōtenketsu (起承転結). Shou (承, lit. understanding): the development, Ten (転, lit. motion): the twist, and Ketsu (結): the conclusion. While season one did not hold a title, it would be Ki (起) to represent introduction.
