Voiced by: Miyuki Sawashiro

Also known as “The Black Rider” or “The Headless Rider”, she is a Dullahan from Ireland who came to Japan looking for her stolen head. Her motorcycle is actually a horse in disguise. She has no heart and perceives via unknown sensors that are not located on the head. The physical strength she possesses is above human, though not quite on par with Shizuo Heiwajima. She is also capable of manipulating a shadow-like, durable substance to form objects ranging from gloves to chariots at her will.

Celty lives with Shinra Kishitani and works as an underground porter. She wears a helmet when she goes out and communicates via a PDA. She enjoys online chatting, television and DVDs. She seems to have feelings for Shinra, but she herself if unsure if it is really love. She tends to get mad when Shinra says she does not need her head.

Voiced by: Toshiyuki Toyonaga

The primary male protagonist of the series, Mikado Ryūgamine is a high school boy who moved to Ikebukuro with the encouragement of his best friend Masaomi in order to search for unusual beings and adventure. Mikado tries hard to change his image but so far he has not had any luck. Mikado has had moments where he speaks his mind, which makes a reason why Masaomi admires him. He is the creator of the infamous gang Dollars.

His online chat screenname is “Tanaka Taro”.

Masaomi Kida (紀田 正臣, Kida Masaomi^?)

Voiced by: Mamoru Miyano

A resident of Ikebukuro and Mikado Ryūgamine’s best friend from childhood. He encouraged Mikado to come to Ikebukuro. He is enthusiastic about picking up girls but more than often fails at it. Masaomi has commented on not letting Mikado “go to the dark side” and that he has already gone through it. Masaomi was often depressed untill Mikado arrived. Masaomi’s jokes often fail which is how Mikado really knew that he was indeed Masaomi Kida. Masaomi comments that he, Mikado, and Anri are in a love triangle. He used to be the leader of the Yellow Scarves Gang.

His online chat screenname is “Bakyura”

Anri Sonohara (園原 杏里, Sonohara Anri^?)

Voiced by: Kana Hanazawa

A bespectacled girl who attends the same school as Mikado and Masaomi. She is rather quiet and timid, but seems very close towards Kida and Mikado, but sometimes she tends to enclose herself. She is very busty and cute, which makes her somehow popular, even though she feels uneasy about it.

Her online chat screenname is “Saika”.

Izaya Orihara (折原 臨也, Orihara Izaya^?)

Voiced by: Hiroshi Kamiya

A young man who sells information for his own enjoyment. He claims to love the entire human race except for Shizuo Heiwajima, and exhibits said love by putting humans in often miserable conditions and observing their reactions.

He attended Raira Academy with Shizuo, Shinra and Kadota. According to Shinra, Izaya and Shizuo hated each other with a passion almost from the point they met. In the novels Izaya framed Shizuo for crimes on several occasions. In the anime he puts Shizuo in constant problems, such as gangs attacking him daily up to framing him of crimes.

He is a master of parkour, and also quite skilled with his flickblade (the blade he uses must be slightly opened before the mechanics of it springs the blade open – a switchblade will open on its own after the user presses a switch) as he is implied to be the only one capable of leaving numerous cuts in Shizuo’s bartender suit after a fight in the novels. In the anime, he shaves a gang member’s head bald without him noticing it. Izaya has two younger sisters, Mairu and Kururi, who are twins and troublemakers.

His name comes from a combination of the biblical Isaiah and Japanese for “the one who looks over the crowd”.

He is usually seen pretending to be female online and talks in a feminine manner in the chatroom. His screenname is “Kanra”.

Shizuo Heiwajima (平和島 静雄, Heiwajima Shizuo^?)

Voiced by: Daisuke Ono

A man who is always seen to wear sunglasses and a bartender’s suit. Although quiet and nondescript while not angered, he has a very short fuse and fights with incredible strength. Despite his simple and unrefined fighting skills, he is often considered the strongest fighter in the series. In the novels his power is described as the naturally unlimited form of human strength and likened to “adrenaline power” that can give people superhuman strength in times of emergency. In addition, Shizuo is capable of often superhuman parkour moves, a skill he obtained naturally from years of hunting down Izaya Orihara.

He works as a bodyguard for a debt collector in Ikebukuro and carries intense animosity towards Izaya. He has a younger brother, Kasuka, who is a top idol under the showbiz name of Hanejima Yuuhei. He is also a long-time acquaintance of Celty.

His first and last name translates literally into “serene man” and “peaceful island” respectively.

Shinra Kishitani (岸谷 新羅, Kishitani Shinra^?)

Voiced by: Jun Fukuyama

A young underground doctor who lives with Celty and is also her lover. He stays mostly indoors and wears a white coat even when not working as a doctor. He went to same primary school as Shizou, and has since then been interested on his unlimited strength in times of anger, in fact he rather enjoys when Shizou makes use of his strength. His father was a Doctor and since childhood has participated in surgeries with his father, the most notable an autopsy on Celty. He went to the same middle school as Izaya and has been friends with him since then. He as well enjoys to some point the constant fights between Shizou and Izaya. As a doctor he is rather interested in what he finds is an interesting phenomena, such as Shizou’s power and Celty’s body functions.

Shinra seems to have the “capacity” to tell what Celty is feeling, much to her surprise since she doesn’t have a head to show her emotions.

Simon Brezhnev (サイモン・ブレジネフ, Saimon Burejinefu^?)

Voiced by: Takaya Kuroda

A tall Black Russian who came to the city to help out his Russian friend who runs a sushi shop. His real name is Samia but everyone just calls him by the name, “Simon”. Even though he is a friendly person, it has been shown that he is a force to be reckoned with as he is able to stop a fight with a man his size with just a single arm and also able to fight on par with Shizuo, who is one of the most feared men in Ikebukuro.

Kyohei Kadota (門田 京平, Kadota Kyōhei^?)
