If you're looking for something like Bleach, then I don't think you'll like this. It's not the LOL type comedy either. The one word I can use to describe this anime is "unique". The characters are "unique". Izaya is one of my favorite fictional characters. It's interesting to watch how the characters are all tied to each other. It's fun to watch the story unfold. And of course, the "forever enemies" relationship between Izaya and Shizuo is one of the best aspects of this anime.
