Anime Relations: Baccano!, Baccano! Specials
I just finished Baccano! AKA Isaac and Miria Up In Smoke (and started the OVAs. dude, FUNIMATION RELEASD THE 3 OVA SPECIALS ALONG WITH THE SERIES ON YOUTUBE!! I fucking WISH FUNimation would have picked up Durarara!)

. . .and, okay, okay, okay, you guys are right. Baccano! IS in fact better than Durarara! Personally, I still rate them both 10s.

I think both of them were too much fun to end when they did. Baccano! could have been AT LEAST two seasons. . . but it is based on a book, and if the entire thing was covered (it probably was) there's no reason to do anymore. . . .

That's just how it works. The ones that leave you wanting more, are usually just as long as they need to be (wussup Jormungand). The ones that make you say "okay, okay, stop already" come from Shonen Jump.

I can barely pick a favorite character but Isaac and Miria are the shit. Ladd is the shit. Claire Stanfield is the shit.

There's so much going on, it's not necessarily in chronological order, and not a second of it is boring. It's just bloody enough, it's just funny enough, it's got just enough action, and I can't really compare these characters to too many others (other than Chane being kinda like Shiki Ryougi from Kara no Kyoukai. . but that's just because she doesn't talk and WILL CUT YOU BITCH!). Even the whiniest character(Jacuzzi) in the show, has BRASS ONES.

The hype is real, folks. Adult Swim/Toonami need to just pick this one up.
