Best post I ever read in this forums xD About one of the best anime I've watched so far.

Really, this episode was truly epic! All the action, everything that happened... But I'm confused about one thing: Dallas and the other guys shot the Gandors right? It seems like they were dead but we know they become immortal at some point so they can't be dead. That's just wired.

Me too... There are so many things to be explained and only one episode to go.

Yeah, damn Szilard. I hate the guy.

You forgot that they drank the potion of immortality when they stole it ?

Anyway, everything is perfect and awesome. 10/10. One of my favorites shows.

Fuck. Shit. So that's why Czeslaw mentioned his real name on the 2nd episode. That makes sense.

Wait. Are Isaac and Miria immortals as well? Yeah, they drank but was it the elixir they drank up?

Wasn't it that Czeslaw misunderstood his own blood that dripped on Isaac hands for Isaac's blood?

Edit: Oh yeah, Szilard found out that the box containing the elixirs we're empty so the presumption would be that they drank it.

Ladd X Lua. What a couple. lol

Jacuzzi, Vino, Nice and the duo got some awesome moments there. EPIC episode, BTW. :)

Now let's see how will things wrap up in the last ep.

My favourite episode hands down. You just knew that the show came to it's climax after Ladd saved Lua and that epic song came on. I actually find it really funny how just one episode of Baccano! can include more character development and action than most 13 episode animes ever get.

Well, Ladd is basically gone, and idr Chane anymore xD She's on break.. haha

Jacuzzi is so sweet!
Hated it before, but these past few episodes for some reason changed my opinion of Ladd x Lua.. Ladd really loves her :3

This anime is crazy as hell :D And Isaak and Miria were just hilarious, when they were driving the car and "dancing" on the rope :D Love, love and simply love them!

But Czes is quite a b*tch, I hope he won't eat Isaaka and Miria ;[

Rail Tracer is OP! I freaked out when he back flipped off that water tower to get the rope across, that was too intense. Apparently, hes only after the bad customers which makes him a protagonist??? LOL

WOW ALL THE CHARACTERS ARE LITERALLY PERFECT??
I can understand why Czes devoured the guy, he was being abused for someone's amusement. I would've done the same.
I was starting to not like RT but he saved Isaac and Miria and after I screaming "I LOVE YOU." Isaac and Miria are perfect and I would cry if they weren't saved.
And Ladd is a good character, but I just didn't like him as much as the other characters, but he saved Lua and I think he's great now because he let RT go to save her, and he even lost his hand because of it. I think he wants Lua to only die by his hands because I think he probably can't bare seeing anyone else kill her, because he loves her??

We are less than one, and there are still many things are said, the plot is more intricate and narrative, the story is composed in such a way as to maintain this aura of mystery, everything is fabulous! * _ * Understand the personality of the characters as the intent is really an interesting game. Design, dialogues and animations to complete the picture! Eager to see the next episode.

wow Vino tricked Ladd good there and is really strong i wonder if there is anyone stronger then him in this anime.

Isaac is a immortal to it seems :O how about Miria then?? i guess we will find out soon enough.

can't believe there is only 1 episode of the anime left and 3 specials cause it feel like there is so much more to come and be explained.

i got a feeling Maiza let Firo drink that immortality poison but maybe Firo doesn't know it him self yet guess we will find out in the next episode or the specials.

Since the anime never covers it.....

Lua is a death seeker. She had an extremely hard life and wants to die, but doesn't want her death to be wasted on a mere suicide. After meeting Ladd by chance she realizes that he can give her eventual death purpose and ends up falling in love with him. She is DEEPLY protective of him, and after spotting the Rail tracer peeking in a window (who is actually VERY creeped out by the fact that she spots him and doesn't appear to care in the slightest) and realizing that Ladd would most likely die if they fought, she ran out to try and find and warn him (she's saved his life several times prior due to having a fairly keen intuition when something feels wrong or is too risky), which is how she ended up on the roof of the train. (it's a lot more complicated then all that, but it's a decent summary since the anime doesn't show a HUGE chunk of stuff that happened on the train).

Ladd's full back story isn't 100% covered (a few bits and pieces into his character are mentioned in earlier books, but absent in the anime) until book 17, where Who (the tall thug who was guarding Lua) gets his perspective of events, which also includes a deep look at Ladd's past, since the two of them have been friends since they were kids. Ladd was actually MUCH more normal (albeit still a ruthless gangster/hitman), until about 1924 when his fiance Laila gets killed in a drive-by attempt from a rival Mob family.

It breaks him completely and he ultimately decides it was her carelessness and obliviousness to her possibility of death that killed her and becomes obsessed with killing people who don't keep the possibility of death in mind at all times with the twisted sense of wanting to make them (or at least their families/by-standers) appreciate their lives more.

(Ladd will absolutely not kill anyone who has given up on living for any reason (going so far as to attempt to give anyone like that he meets a new reason for living, either by inviting them into his gang so they can find some new purpose (even if it's just killing for fun) or just protecting them from harm (as when he gave Fred (a combat medic who was on the train and doesn't appear in the anime) the key to his cabin on the Flying Pussyfoot who was just wandering around the train looking to see if he would die this time or not as a place to stay out of harms way), and generally dislikes killing people who are willing to risk their lives for something more important (but will kill them if they're in his way))

Ladd eventually falls in love with Lua after initially dismissing her due to immediately sensing her desire to die, once he realizes that she'll do ANYTHING to give her eventual death meaning, and as such by telling her straight out that she will die only at the time and place of his choosing and the huge spectacle he'll make of it, that she'll keep her death in mind and stay out of danger.

Ladd save her because deep down, he feels a deep regret that he couldn't save Laila and didn't want to go through the feeling of losing the love of his life a second time and was fully intending to die WITH her when the time came.


In a lot of ways, Ladd is actually a twisted and damaged mirror of Jacuzzi.

Killing bad guys while enjoying it...oh and saving customers too! I guess that's what they meant when they said Vino has a warped sense of justice.

Maybe I missed some info but I still don't get why Maiza's so weak against Szilard. The panacea grants immortality and when he devours people, he gains knowledge...do strength and skills also get devoured too?

Yes. Up to and including muscle memory.

Also the more times an immortal has been injured in a particular way, they recover from it faster. And Szilard has done a LOT of experiments on his own body to see just how unstoppable he could make himself (since vs another immortal, the first one to get disabled is gonna die...usually). He's basically the Geriatric Terminator.
