Baccano is special.
Pulp Fiction special.
It starts the anime off with a very awesome opening, telling the names and a little bit of foreshadowing for them accompanied by a sick jazz. First shot we got and we have a coin toss by the duo of the show, Isaac and Miria, who after that suits themselves in seasonal costumes and proceeds to rob the store off of... a box of chocolates.
The opening alone can give you the vibe of Chaotic Overdose in how much the opening seems so out of context without watching the proper story that was being told.
The story itself is indeed chaotic than most animes out there, starting out in a very anachronistic order and switching in-between shot mid-episodes. The first episode starts with two people not seen in the opening discussing about one particular event in the past, focusing on Firo, a greenhorn which seems to be "Main Character-ish".
The first episodes ends with Maiza encountering Czeslaw Meyer, a kid that is seen in the last opening bits.
This... is where things gets exciting.
Turns out it was not the beginning of a long, season of things to come, but the first episode gives you the conclusion of the entire season.
Yes, we start at the end of the season, but technically, we've just started.
Like Haruhi Suzumiya's awkwardly aired episodes that climaxed mid-season (Which is the last to be aired episode), Baccano is made with anachronic being its center. It quickly jumps from the past, to the present, to the future, and then to the past again without so much as a warning and little to no transition whatsoever.
This anime is indeed an anime for the smart, where you have to keep your wits about while watching it.
This anime deserves more attention for its awesome story, great characters, and a setting like no others.
I mean, an arc setting in a train called "Flying Pussyfoot" is as rare as you can get here
With this I give this anime, an 11/10
