He's the one sharing the story, vanishes mysteriously after the second episode, yet continues to be billed by the end credits as a character of some importance. I'm fairly positive the second body in the caboose isn't his. Remember, at least one of Ladd Russo's fellow "Hobbyists" stole Tony's uniform to pose as a conductor.

I noticed that too, and been wondering where he's going to come up within this story, so now your theory on the railtracer being him is making sense.
Ladd is just crazy- his character is brutal and it is just odd to watch.

Goddamn, that beating really struck a nerve for me.

Great episode nonetheless. It was a bit hard to grasp at first and it is kind of confusing how it skips around chronologically, but I'm really liking the way they build the tension and the characters are super interesting.

Miria and Isaac is soo funny with that old man in the store XD



finally we get to know who Chane is :)



Ennis is the red head girl huh? :D

awesome name!!



so there's actually a beast among the shadows o___O



so the old people wants to stop their old aging process huh?

way to become an immortal?

it seems the show loves to time skip back and forth and tie what the other characters have been doing.

i hope we get more Chane screen time now :)

4/5

Although the story has a wild side is still fragmentary, on the facts, I find that this new phase, starting now, harvesting, if I may call it, of the various pieces, is starting to make me enjoy more the anime series. By reading the synopsis then, everything is much clearer. Isaac and Miria, are really nice guys! XD maximum rating is not because of too much rapidity put in narrating that, combined with the usual jumps environment are making it a tad boring understanding.

well bit by bit things are getting more clear but it surely took me a while to figure some things out but its is starting to get there slowly but its getting there which make me like it a bit more cause past episode i didn't know what to think.

i wonder what Isaac and Miria are for kind of people they seem to act foolish and scared at times which is of course very funny but as we saw before they robed mafia's and they in good terms with this Italian named mafia group so surely there is something more about them then that meets the eye i think.

I like how this anime throws random scenes around in each episode, but they eventually all piece each other together.

That boxing scene was brutal.

And couldn't help but laugh at the old man he had that "tired of your shit" face going on because of Isacc and Miria.

Hmm,seems the Rail Tracer is real.

So, is this like freak show? Yes, I am talking about Ladd and few others. Is there even someone normal in this show? I guess not. I really can't stand some characters in this show. Jacuzzi is very unlikable coward. Add in Isaac and Miria for their overplaying part (Miria's voice can be very annoying at times as it really doesn't fit her age). Too bad they are there only as comic relief. Those are precisely the reason why I can't take this show seriously (even if I wanted). But the thing is - some others are pretty cool (and now I'm talking about Ennis and Firo, for example). I am torn in my opinion of this show as I haven't been with any other for a long time.

Cause on the other hand, I like what they do with time-flow and repeated scenes from different angles. Everything is slowly coming together, creating full picture. And the atmosphere of thirties is still great. I just wish they would tone down those overly eccentric chracters and moments.

Finally an ep that made some sense, don't know why the author likes to tell his stories with so many different plot points as most people will lose interest from the start, only those who stick with it usually end up enjoying it.

Everything got a little bit clearer und slowly I understand some things.

Isaac and Miria a little at that hat shop lol. Ladd goes totally ham on these two mafioso's.
I don't know why they said Chane only has to live till tomorow.

They developed an panpharmacon. Interesting stuff. Looking forward to the next episode.
