I really love Baccano, but I'm watching the eng dub, which is great, but without headphones I feel it's hard to really digest what they're saying. Prob because I've ben watching alot of subbed animes lately (shounens lol).

Can anyone clear me up on the whole gang thing? I understand most of it, but I'm a little lost with the names and who's chasing who and what-not.
Lol.

Friends don't let friends do dubs....Watch the subs instead. I'll put a short summary in a spoiler so that those who enjoy their current confused state (or who enjoy figuring it out on their own) can continue.

There are several groups which might be considered gangs:


I think that is a summary of who all has been shown to be involved thus far, and contains no more information than one would gather by a close watching of episodes 1-6. It looks like there are other major characters who will emerge in the next couple of episodes and at least one of them is on the train.

Wow! I love seeing Dallas get beat up again and again. It's hilarious :)
I love Luck!! He's so cool! Same w/ Firo. Since I'm watching the dub, Luck is also Hei from DTB so it's awesomee.

The Rail Tracer scares me a lot. IT'S NOT GOOD TO WATCH THIS SHOW LATE, PEOPLES.
When he whispered into that girl's ear and she screamed I just got so scared.
And I cringed for the first time in Baccano! when he ruthlessly dragged that guy on the train tracks. *shudder*

On to next episode! Hopefully there's not too much gore..

And how do people know for sure that Vino is the monster? I was speculating that too, but it wasn't set in stone and it really surprised me of people being sure of that..
Ehh. Maybe I've been watching too many mindless animes and I'm not thinking enough xD.

Thanks for the summary! It helped a lot. But I started watching another show, and I kinda forgot about Baccano! (shame on me) so I ended up rewatching it and I understand it really good now.

And dubs aren't bad.. It depends on the dub. I personally love the Baccano! and DTB dub, but in general I have watched more sub so I know what you mean. I just feel since I'm not Japanese, how do I even know if the sub is good or not.. lol but thanks again xD

Alright, halfway through. I have to say this has been interesting so far, to say the least. I originally watched Durarara!! and then had heard about Baccano!. Baccano! is a lot darker than Durarara!!, and a lot more brutal.

I'm not really a fan of dark series like this. But Baccano! has kept me coming back wanting more. I like a lot of the characters in this series, especially the women. This series has some hot hot women. A few really cute ones as well.

I hope the second half of the season is even better.

Still very confusing although an outline is coming together. I'm not particularly attached to any of these characters yet though. Maybe Issac and Miria but barely. I guess it's not my kind of show

5/5

The episode still has many light and dark, like the many scenes! LOL narrative that purports well the concept that there are links to all the events shown. Still a lot of fragmentation in the script, but the pathos is palpable would seem to more! Maximum grade!

again more explanations i am really happy with that but in my eyes they are a bit to slow on revealing things and a lot is still confusing but okay that might turn out to be good in the end i don't know yet we will see.

i thought Isaac was way stronger but it seems he got the crap kicked out of him by Dallas and his gang while Dallas is not even a mafia nor is he that strong i think that's a bit of a disappointment but i still love them as comedy couple and just hope he is pretending to be so weak same with Jacuzzi there has to be something more about him but so far he didn't show any of it yet then again he was changing his way of acting when he saw Ladd.

also i expected Dallas to be stronger and more interesting cause all the info on him is top secret so i thought he should have been really bad ass maybe he turns out to be later on but for now he isn't fitting the real bad ass imago they where giving him.

Not sure if Dallas is an Immortal or if he's only a incomplete one will healing abilities only.

Honestly didn't don't see why people say the plot/story is so hard to follow,I find it rather easy to follow.

Same here, mainly because it's being explained over several episodes, I think it'll make more sense the moment we are nearing the end.
Still again, what's explained so far is pretty straight forward, also just enjoying the episodes :)

Dallas is kind of pathetic, he keeps getting his ass kicked left and right haha.

OTOH it was awesome seeing Ennis in action. :D She may have been created by this immortal master guy but I think she has more of a heart than what he predicted. She's an awesome character.

I hope Mary is alright. :c

Okay more information given to us. Claira Stanfield is was called to come with the pussyfoot.

Seems that the woman in the work clothes isn't this weird thing outside of the train who split that guy in two halfs.

So Eve Genoard got kidnapped. Isaac got kicked in his butt and doesn't care about lol.

What was that green fluid in this injection?

The world is small. The same girl that ran over them is the same that saved them.

The purple monster is brutal! I wonder what it did say to the ninja girl that moves below the train wagons xD (Rachel)

Another awesome episode, it keeps getting more interesting. I loved Ladd's little intro in this episode. It was hilarious when he said the villain is here. Too bad nothing happend in the confrontation between Jacuzzi and Ladd. I cant wait for the next episode, I really want to see Czes's role in this.

Exactlyyy XD

Loved the episode. Everything keeps getting more and more interesting.
The immortality bottles are at the Gandor's place atm, looking forward to what's gonna happen to them.
Also, that ghost-like creature is not that ghosty, thats interesting.

Looking forward to the next episode!

I'm getting more and less confused as the show progresses. I'm really not sure what Dallas' role is in everything. He seems to be key in a potential key in sparking a war between opposing Mafia factions, but I may be off. Im not sure why Fat-Guy Mafia-San is after him. What am I missing?
