Interest Daily Cosplay Durarara!!'s Shizuo Heiwajima
posted on 2011-09-13 23:57 EDT
In the above image, cosplayer "krypton45" portrays Shizuo Heiwajima, a character from Ryohgo Narita's light novel series Durarara!! and its 2010 anime adaptation. In the series, Shizuo dresses as a bartender or waiter but in reality serves as a bodyguard for a debt collector. He has an ongoing rivalry with information broker Izaya Orihara, and throughout his life he has developed a near-superhuman tolerance to pain, allowing him to both take hits and dish them out— often by lifting enormously heavy objects, such as a vending machine, and flinging them at his opponent.

Not every super hero gets an awesome robot, elemental powers to summon lightning, or can fly through the air due to sheer psychic will. No, some personalities probably aren't suited for the super hero role, but it's thrust upon them anyway, strange powers and all. 2013-05-25

Review
If this film causes more permanent damage than most Pokémon outings, that's wholly the fault of its main character, Keldeo.
On the whole, The Battle for Doldrey is a mixed bag of strengths and weaknesses. While that may be true of most things, there are few places where those lines are so clearly drawn as in this film.
