I wrote a reply to this yesterday (**Edit:** two days ago) and FANDOM ate my entire response when I tried to post it, argh... I usually copy my replies before I publish just in case something like this happens. Ended up miffed enough that I'm only now giving the reply another go. Consider it a condensed version of what I was writing yesterday.

I hadn't considered creating a characters list; I know plenty of manga wikis use them, but it didn't seem necessary for DMDP yet... ah well, I oughtn't let your hard work go to waste. This is also why no "List of Volumes" page currently exists on this wiki (though I might at the very least drum up a template to use for the main DMDP page for the time being).

As for why I do not include this as a Naritaverse work...well, there are two reasons:

1) Narita said DMDP takes place in a different world to that of Durarara!! and Baccano! in this tweet dated to Oct 20, 2017 (manga debut). (He's quote-tweeting a little comic by Fujimoto which jokes about no crossovers.)

2) Even if I didn't about the above, DMDP deals with necromancy, spirits, and the afterlife--which means it can't be part of the Naritaverse. For all the supernatural beings the Naritaverse has (dullahans, vampires, werewolves, etc), it doesn't really deal in ghosts. Narita skirts around afterlives in the Naritaverse; he's never confirmed if such things do exist.

Why? Doing so would cause story problems,especially for Baccano! (if you don't know why, you haven't reached the relevant point in the series). It's for similar reasons that Hariyama-san can't really be in the Naritaverse (one of its stories features a ghost who takes a taxi ride).
