This is madness! Lot's of blood this time, lots of killing.

That torture was pretty crazy, but we got some more info on the Rail Tracer. Ladd is still a crazy SOB and even Chane got some screentime. Looks like she'll get some more in the next episode.

Wow, bloody ep, but delicious; needs more Isaac/Miria.

Everything's on the wind-down, next ep should claer more things up than this one did.

Czeslaw gets his head blown off (repeatedly?) by Ladd in the first ep, remember?

Also, now would be a good time to review the first ep to solidify what has been revealed and what has yet to be answered.

You're right, i remember now. I guess I should take a lookat ep.1 again. I think Czeslaw started doing something right after he came back too.

Bloody brilliant. Emphasis on the bloody part.

Finally! Dallas had his little moment in the limelight, instead of getting his ass kicked every time. And Vino...don't even get me started on him...

Nice to see some more Chane and Czeslaw screentime. Looks like they're finally going to be main factors in the next episode.

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)

Lol... that was gory ^^.

Ladd has a loose screw on his head. More than one actually. But then again it seems everyone in the show has some.

Can't wait to see Chane fighting Ladd next episode. And also what happens to make Ladd lose his patience with Czelaw.

I'm personally starting to think that detail in gory scenes is on a much higher level than what I had seen before in Elfen Lied... >.>

well... it IS...

Baccano is one hell of a gory show...
But unlike Elfen Lied I don´t feel like it´s a show about blood and gore...
The way it´s used... the way it´s shown and sounds... it has a far stronger impact than Elfen Lied ( or similar animes ) ever could...

I think it´s because Baccano has so much more than just violence ( and doesn´t show the gory stuff every 5 seconds or so ) that whenever it´s used ( even in an episode like this ) I think "woah... fucking hell this IS gory"...
I never thought that in Elfen Lied etc...
Baccano is ( in my opinion ) the very first anime that uses violence and gore the way it should be used... shocking but not around every corner...
( higurashi was a good start / try... but it´s not nearly as perfectly used as in baccano )

This episode was tremendously fun, black comedy at its finest. The resource to blood didn’t striking me as trying to be shocking, as far as I’m concerned it was an example of sheer style.

What a blood bath! I'm glad I decided to watch it now, instead of earlier (which was past midnight). Loved how messed-up the characters are, Vino is particular was fascinating.

Looking forward to what happens next re: Ladd and Czeslaw, and what made Ladd shoot the latter point-blank. ^^

wow. whoever mentioned before they thought the conductor was rail tracer, good job. Claire is really creepy though. I got chills when he killed the man on the tracks and when he covered himself with blood. So twisted and awesome.

There has been a major lack of Firo these past few episodes and I'm a little upset by that. Anyway, Czes is one crazy boy, but for him being as old as he is he really does know how to use his little kids' body well. Oh, and Ladd was so crazy, as always :)

Great episode, I love Vino way more than Ladd. Though Ladd dancing on the corpses was hella funny.

Needs moar Firo. Way more Firo.

Friggin' awesome, this was one hell of an episode!! o.o Got me on the verge of jumping up several times.

Vino...didn't see that coming at all, great twist for me.

He's probably just angry since he had to live with a girls' name for so long. xD

Vino/Claire is awesome. At the beginning, when Claire was mentioned, I assumed it to be a girl. But I was ever so wrong!!

I love it because he came off so gentle and naive but he turned out to be a cold blooded assassin. At the same time though, he's friends with Luck. And I like Luck.

I also like Firo and I haven't seen him for a while so that makes me sad.

And this series, I'm so glad I gave it a second chance! Even if it is two or so years later. xD

P.S. I love how they "eat" each other.

What a pleasure to see the expression on Ladd's face when Czeslaw suggested that he kill all the people in the dining car! ("WTF is this coming from a kid?")
So now we know who the Rail Tracer is...a lot of blood in this episode but I still liked it anyway.

What the fuck? I am kinda confused but at the same time starting to know more and more informations about the events that are happening. This episode has a lot of blood. I just can't wait for the next episode. Also, wtf is with that kid telling Ladd to kill the people on the train?! Damn, didn't think he's also bad.

Okay so the Rail Tracer is Vino all along. It was the conductor of the train. You just have to love his skills. The funny thing was when he told the free lancer girl "Where's your ticket please." in the bottom of the train, lmfao. Also, when the free lancer girl was telling that information to the daily days boss and the other guy started laughing really made me crack up, lol.

Okay so I can't wait to see Ladd and Vino fight. Wonder who's going to win. Also, Dallas and the gang seems to be immortal now. Damn they're all showing all the hot things. I don't know what will happen, aah.
