Episode Title:
Takes A Sudden Turn.
Episode Description:
Six months has passed since the meeting of the Dollars was held at Ikebukuro. There are news reports of a mysterious assailant known as the "slasher", who assaults their victims by slashing them with a blade, but never kills. The police department bring in Kinnosuke Kuzuhara, a reckless police officer specially assigned to apprehend Celty. Because of Kuzuhara's relentlessness, their first encounter traumatizes Celty. Later, Celty picks up Shinra's father, Shingen, who just arrived in Japan. Namie is now working as Izaya's secretary, following the Nebula Corporation's buyout of Yagiri Pharmaceuticals. Masaomi is approached by members of the Yellow Scarves, who ask him to return to the gang, but he refuses. Elsewhere, Anri is cornered by the same three girls who were harassing her previously, but the slasher appears and attacks the three girls.
