The animation quality is quite the hassle to discuss, because it is so varying in quality. At its worst it has low frame rates, offset character designs and framed action, while at its best it is vivid, meticulous and full of soft motions and beautifully animated special and lighting effects. Most of the time however, it is decent. Not average, but not in any way anything bragworthy. Expect some ups and downs in this department.
The soundtrack however, is very great. It is greatly varied, and is renewed per story arc, introducing new tunes often whilst keeping the old ones around too, and this variation is intrinsical of any above-average soundtrack. It stays perfectly in tone and atmosphere with the current events, and feature everything from upbreat, adrenaline-pumping electric guitar pieces to melliflous piano pieces, and standard comedic moment tracks. The opening and endign themes feature a lot of types and genres, from the serene and sentimental to rap and rock. And pop, of course.

Durarara's Final DVD to Add DVD-Exclusive Episode 25

Author Ryohgo Narita: episode on 13th DVD to serve as epilogue in February
The official website of the Durarara!! television anime series confirmed that the 13th and final DVD volume will ship next February with a DVD-exclusive episode 25. The final television episode, episode 24 "Sokutenkyoshi," will air in Japan this Thursday. Director Takahiro Omori revealed in a Sunday Twitter post that Ryohgo Narita, the author of the original Durarara!! light novels, had drafted the story for the episode. Narita himself had said in a Twitter post earlier on Sunday that he feels that episode 25 will not be the story's finale as such, but a bonus epilogue.
Rob Peryda, Vice-President, Licensing at Crunchyroll, had revealed in a March 18 Twitter post that his company would "stream Durarara!! 25-26 and So-Ra-No-Wo-To 13-14 the same day as Japanese home video." The first DVD-exclusive episode, which will ship with the seventh DVD volume on August 25, was eventually numbered as "12.5," so the second DVD-exclusive episode will be numbered "25" instead of "26." The final DVD volume will ship on February 23, 2011.
