My thoughts:
Baccano is also one of my favourite anime. It's serious and mysterious but also has aspects of humour and will make you laugh. Throughout the series you will find yourself confused, but in the end everything makes sense and fits together perfectly in place. I have watched this series several times and each time I figure more and more out about it, since there are such small things that hint to certain events. This is a must watch, and if you don't then you're missing out. Hope you enjoy it.Episodes: 13
Genres: Action, comedy, historical, mystery, seinen. supernatural.
Synopsis (according to MyAnimeList):
During the early 1930s in Chicago, the transcontinental train, Flying Pussyfoot, is starting its legendary journey that will leave a trail of blood all over the country. At the same time in New York, the ambitious scientist Szilard and his unwilling aide Ennis are looking for missing bottles of the immortality elixir. In addition, a war between the mafia groups is getting worse. On board the Advena Avis, in 1711, alchemists are about to learn the price of immortality.
Based on the award-winning light novels of the same name, Baccano! follows several events that initially seem unrelated, both in time and place, but are part of a much bigger story—one of alchemy, survival and immortality. Merging these events together are the kindhearted would-be thieves, Isaac and Miria, connecting various people, all of them with their own hidden ambitions and agendas, and creating lifelong bonds and consequences for everyone involved.
