There's a reason why FMA:B and Baccono! are my two favorite series. I'm a sucker for a good story and it is done so so well with both of them. How? Well: -Continuity! Every plot point is relevant, characters are not thrown away, and there are no ass-pulls. The plot is well thought out, with tons of twists and turns that are surprising, yet understandable when you look back on the clues. -Alchemy also plays an important role in Baccano! with an event in the 1700's acting as a catalyst to the main story. Not gunna say more cuz spoilers. -Both involve weird immortality. -BADASS characters. -Brings up interesting philosophical issues. Also, if you like the setting in FMA:B: -It is similar to Baccano! (although Baccano! jumps around a lot chronologically, it mainly takes place in the early 1930's) with similar technology.
