Ladd actually got surprised someone asked him to kill people. This is getting even more interesting.

It doesn't matter how crazy you are about killing, you get surprised when a 10 year old boy asks you for a massacre. I guess... I'm obviously not talking from experience. xD

"Ticket, please." - Amazing. I just loved it. Claire/Vino is awesome. I wonder who he was referring to when he said he was looking for someone with whom there was a possibility for him to get married.

So, lots of gore but the story also moves on. The pacing of this anime is excellent.

Brilliant!! XD Gore at its finest! I had to cringe in spite of myself when he placed the guy's hand and face on the rail tracks! First time I saw torture like that! O.O

All in all, great ep! Right amount of action and suspense! And a lot of blood spattering! Awesome! hahaha! Ladd is the best sadist I have ever known! And Vino hands down being the killer machine! Gosh!

OMG I LOVE LADD RUSSO.

Great ep...and I'm glad Claire/Vino/RT wasn't killed off in the beginning like we were led to believe. He seemed too sweet to die, but being an insane killer is even better. X)


This, pretty much... though I think I like Claire/Vino more than Ladd, if anything else because of that twist I was falsely led into in the beginning and asking Rachel for her ticket underneath of the train. But I seriously lol'd when Ladd was jumping up and down in the blood like a happy, excited child splashing in rain puddles.

I'm really falling in love with everybody here... and while I wince ever so slightly at the more gory scenes, OH HOW I LOVE THEM SO. <3 Huzzah, blood bath!!

So, maybe Czeslaw wanted Ladd to kill everyone in the dining car so he could find out who was immortal afterwards. Is Czeslaw from the 1700s too? and is Ladd immortal? Im still curious as to how some of the others became immortal...
I'm so glad we finally find out Vino was the Rail Tracer, and that it wasn't a random monster, because that wouldnt fit very well. Off to the next episode

THIS. I wanna know more about about how all these people became immortal...

RAIL TRACER was WIN. I <3 claire/vino/rail tracer. badass. I like how he thinks he's doing everything out of justice, and how he really was sad when found out the old conductor was ambushed and killed...

twisted & awesome. great episode.

Thus far all of the people Rail Tracer has killed have deserved it in one way or another. It's possible the high body count can be generated from just the Lemures and Ladd's gang.

I cringed so hard during the torture.. (I don't mind gore, but when it's so evil-like it just kinda traumatizes me)

But this episode was awesome. A lot of clearing up on Dallas and the Gandor Family and Vino..

I was asking myself, 'If the first 2 discs of the Baccano box set are rated 15, why is the 3rd one 18?" Now I know! Deliciously gory episode.

Each step further in history, brings new mysteries in the plot. Finally come to the surface as the various characters glimpsed in the previous installments. Beautiful, intriguing and well crafted this episode, I am very involved with this anime. Vote more than fair!

well the pacing of this anime is really strange but it is also a way that makes it more interesting for me. i had a hard time following what is going on for a while but lately that isn't the case anymore as much even with the weird pacing of the show it self.

that was a odd request of the kid was not expecting that. it seems next episode is Vino vs Ladd but i can only wonder who this daily news director is we haven't seen him so far but he know a lot he even knew more as Rachel who was on that train so yeah who is he.

Wish the anime included Ladd's Rage meter like the novel has.

It's slowly building the whole time he's talking to Czes, and then bottoms out when he makes that request...but when Czes makes the mistake of mentioning it's so that he can stay safe, it blows the top off the rage meter, because Ladd absolutely DESPISES people who will sacrifice other people's lives for their own safety or profit, without risking their own life in the process. (Ladd's scheme is acceptable in his mind because he's there and risking his life to achieve that goal).

Rail Tracer and Czes are the only times in the whole series that Ladd genuinely goes berserk (they both get rage meters to show that he's actually being serious, instead of just putting on an intimidating show like every other time he's causing wonton violence).

I actually hate that they left Ladd as a mostly one dimensional violence character, when he's one of the most complex (if damaged) characters in the series as whole. They even skipped a scene that they could've easily included that showed Placido's (his uncle) realization that Ladd's comical sociopathy was mostly an act and he was actually a very calculated and manipulative individual hiding behind a veneer of insanity.

They also left out a lot of the background out his personal gang that actually makes his group a twisted version of Jacuzzi's gang, taking in the downtrodden dregs who've given up and helping them find a new purpose to life and place of acceptance.

"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy."
