| Favorite show of the season so far! Fantastic episode. That cliffhanger.... And TK delivers another fantastic song!! |
| To be fair, this episode was DOPE. Then again, hope the main character will keep being cool and don't turn into a psycopath (he already showed us the "psychopath" smile, but sometimes it's just a smile, really... that's what I wish). |
 |
| i dont think Vanno is dead, earlier in the episode when Avilo took on the mission he asked him if he killed someone before then he answered no... Vanno was remembering his first time (which maybe its when he killed Luce and his mom ) but he suddenly stopped talking maybe he figured out his true identity or had doubt about him.. so he made a scenario to make him bring the others so they can all confront him which also clarify why the corpse was missing anyway i'm so excited for the next episode and the op is awesome its on repeat since yesterday lol, you can find the longer version (pv) on TK's official YT channel check it out guys! |
| Holy shit I lol'd at the ling to shigure OP. |
 Anime is good, fucking deal with it. |
| Woot! Definitely smarter, darker, and grittier than I imagined! MC is smart, but everyone else is too. And he doesn't have the experience to match. That's fantastic! I like the fact that I have to really pay attention to know what's going on, especially with all the characters. But that DOUBLE TWIST and cliffhanger really caught me off guard. I literally yelped in surprise. Holy shit! Did Vanno realize he was Angelo and set a trap!? The OP is pretty good, but I wish they went with something more jazzy like the ED. |
| I love how they portray his targets, as somewhat likable guys, who in the end will have to die (or not, dunno what kinda twists this show will have ;D) |
 |
| Was almost disappointed with Avilo when he fucked up his first kill with Fango, so I'm glad he quickly made up for it by killing Vanno...although he might have bit off more than he could chew thanks to that cliffhanger. Didn't expect Fango to have such hobbies at all o_0 Best OP of the season confirmed. I expected nothing less from TK. |
 |
| Now that was something. The first scene with Vanno's friend dying set the mood nicely, then we learnt more about where the Orco and Vanetti's families stand in terms of power which was interesting. When Nero's plan to become buddies with the vanetti's family just to kill them off one by one became clear, he seems to have been outplayed already. Neat stuff so far, hopefully it remains this good because this got real potential. |
| 5 main aspects I base my ratings on: 1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it? 2. Is it better than Breaking Bad? 3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it? 4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL? 5. Is it actually good? Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant... |
| What a great episode, this anime is getting better. |
 |
| Tk opening Also, damn fango really likes it rough lol Pretty good ending. Edit: Oh shit there was a scene after the ending song o.o |

| Episode 2 did not go how I expected it, he's kicking off his revenge a lot quicker than I thought. Can't wait for next week. Though I'm kinda sad Vanno was one of his targets, I really liked him. Angelo's gonna be after Nero, too, who I also like. I was hoping it'd just be the dad and some other goons. |
| Fantastic, fantastic. Absolutely adored this episode, might be my favorite episode of the season so far. Great atmosphere, sharp dialogue, and engaging characters. I'm impressed by how much they humanized the killers of Angelo's family, complicating the situation so that it isn't just him seeking revenge against one-dimensional evil monsters. That alone elevates the storytelling here beyond most of the anime currently airing. This has so much potential, hoping it continues delivering on it. Also, the OP is amazing. Actually got me hyped before I even watched most of the episode. |

| Already perfect! First, the OP is emo and it's suitable, fitting the conflict within the families and Avilio's goal. Then we have everything within a mafia drama. Friend revenge, bullcrap family alliances that's questioned, kink (WE GOT KINK! Not Game of Thrones but we got kink!), emphasis on selling booze, family war, Avilio's decision making and interacting with Vanno... Thought they were going to shoot up the wedding... and then that cliffhanger. Crap! Now what? What did the Don say, "Don't rush ahead? Or you'll trip." OTTO! Speaking of Vinciente, looks like his health is bad. Maybe he'll die anyway but not by Avilio's hand? Maybe even the Orca. The scene with Serpente |

| Most unfitting OP of the season right there, don't like it at all. |
 |
| That was a beast OP song, also the episode was even better than the first one, hope it keeps this quality |
| Sup... |
| Oh man, oh man, oh man, OH MAN THAT WAS AWESOME, I WANT MORE PS: whats up with the people who thinks the OP is unfitting ? i think it fits pretty damn good with the anime. |
STOP SLEEPING ON ODD TAXI |
| Kind of meh animation, had higher expectations since they made baccano. The Fango gunfight looked pretty awkward (missing shots from point-blank, but that was the point probably because it looks like the mc isn't looking to kill anyone else than the killers of his family). Op fluidity and song were great though. Many references to godfather series but this doesn't make the anime any better for me, kind of feels cheap tbh. Ending also caught me off guard. Ok episode. |

| Oh shit son is all I can say about the episode. Also, their names are impossible to memorize for me haha. |
| I need sleep. |
Kurtsi said: Kind of meh animation, had higher expectations since they made baccano. nope, they didnt made baccano. |
| STOP SLEEPING ON ODD TAXI |
| Any news on how many episodes this will get? I really hope for 2-cours. |
| WOW great episode. OP song is really good. All that gun fire. ED song is real chill. Vanno is such a cool character. Poor Tronco. Ronaldo going to be a real jerk now he's joined the family. Fango is a massive masochist. Just managing to escape. What a jerk for using that woman as a shield. Vanno getting some revenge, but that ending was unexpected. Avilio shooting Vanno. The revenge has began. |

Ok episode. xD Baccano was made by Brains Base from what I remember. Well I'll be damned I thought shuka was formed by the people who previously worked at brain's base. If not that then I don't know how they got the baccano art style so well. |
| That was a good episode. Liked it much more than the first one. I thought Angelo was already experienced in killing, Surprised when he said this was gonna be his first. Lol at Fango's 'fun' . Quite crafty of Angelo to carry out his revenge by joining the family himself, Not sure if Fango really escaped or if Angelo had planned to let him go in order to draw out Vano. That post credit scene :o, Clearly there's a much more elaborate plan at work here. Interesting that Angelo's dad's best friend is helping him out, Going so far as to give him the list of names. He might have been set up, Show is getting real interesting now. |

I thought it was OK, but it was so melancholy that I agreed with it, ESPECIALLY with those scenes. Avilio stroking that gun! |

If not that then I don't know how they got the baccano art style so well. You aren't wrong on that one, it was a studio formed by the previous people that worked on Brain's Base, at least as far as I'm concerned in the entire staff department, but I don't think animator wise would be Baccano, but I'll check for a moment. Edit: http://myanimelist.net/people/10312/Ogura_Hiromasa Here you go and no, he didn't worked on Baccano's animation. I'm impressed how they got down the baccano feel.  |
smackells said: Was I the only one who thought the wedding music sounded like "pop goes the weasel"? thank god I am not crazy wohohoho, turf war where two families kneel to the 3rd?! I think we can all agree this is some hardcore setup, right? now, we didn't see that guy die, but he knew something, and now he's missing as well as, why was there member killed on his' friends' grave? #intense I hope Angelo lives, I'm just here for his smile/grin |

DatRandomDude said: PS: whats up with the people who thinks the OP is unfitting ? i think it fits pretty damn good with the anime. Only for the people that just can't stop comparing it to Baccano, so they wanted their little jazz music. Like you said, this is a damn good opening and it fits. |
|
| WTF!!!! How am i supposed to wait a week after that cliffhanger!! |
| I was almost to drop this series since the 1st episode did not hooked me instantly but good thing that the OP is from TK and the story is moving now with this episode. That cliffhanger! |
| That op its been too long since I've heard that rhythm. That ending tho wasn't expecting that this is gonna be a very interesting mafia anime |
 |
| Awesome episode~ Seriously loving the atmosphere, setting, characters, dialogue and pretty much everything so far. Love the OP song, sounds and looks really nice~ |
| TK does it agin with the amazing OP and my fucking God that was so amazing honestly this is not an anime it's a crime film |
 |
| Aye, Fango is still alive. I love that crazy fucker. |
 |
| That was a fantastic episode. I'm not sure how you could make that any better. The first episode was a bit slow for me but with this episode, 91 Days has arrived and this show could take out Re:Zero as Anime of the Season for the Summer. |
  |
| Man that was a lot of fun all the way through. Really good stuff at the end. |
 |
| So much better than joker game |
| A wedding scene.. where the Don sits in his office... and it also happens to be a political marriage... There is no way this show wasn't inspired by 'The Godfather'. |
| "People die when they are killed" - Emiya Shirou |
| The OP was very fitting with the revenge theme, tbh. I don't really like TK, but it's still good. A lot of Godfather references. Great episode, no complain. But damn Angelo, why did you kill Vanno? He is my favorite character in this anime so far. So, will Serpente get out of the mafia after this? XD |
