| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Interesting episode, Ladd surely is one freaky SOB. Glad we got to see Chane for the first time, can't wait to see her in action. Somehow I think the guy who said she'll only live until 'tomorrow' is wrong. :D |

| Ah, the tension just keeps rising. Ladd is definitely a cool character as he is insane, I was cracking up as he walked down the hallway talking to himself heh; and the way he messed up those guys was just awesome. The monster at the end kinda threw me off, but then again the anime has immortals so I wasn't that surprised, I just hope the thing has atleast somewhat of a decent backstory. Very good episode overall. |
リスト 。。 |
| Ladd Russo. What a freaky bastard, he is just that awesome! Is Chane another character with crazy ability/personality? And as usual, funny Miria x Isaac, which makes the episode better. Looking forward to the next one...here's a few spoil0rs. |
  |
| Can't hold them for false advertising. Ladd Russo was certainly both talking AND killing a lot. And enjoying himself. And prior to the subtitles, I hadn't noticed how this led into episode 5. Interesting. |
  |
| Loved the episode. Ladd Russo beating down that person was brutal. Issac and Miria getting run over was funny too. |
     |
| ladd russo is freaking awesome...made my day, crazy sob. i wonder if that monster is one of the characters just transformed. |
     |
| Every ep just keeps getting better and better. This ep really makes me hope that this gets licensed and has a fantastic English cast. Baccano! just feels like it should be in English to me, but the Japanese cast is just so fantastic it's hard to top it, almost every single character has a voice actor that's played a major character. Ladd Russo's especially is fantastic, it takes someone special to be able to pull off his range of emotions in such a condensed package. I'd bet the farm that the next ep throws the sense that I know what's going on into the fire. If the scriptwriters had any sense of pacing they'll get right back to confusing you as much as you were after the first ep. |
    Sam is my sweet peach |
| Awesome episode. Ladd Russo is just a great character that you don't see in every anime. Since Chane and Ladd are on the move so hopefully their fight is near. About the monster guy on the window at the end of the episode...I have a weird feeling it's Jacuzzi. It might just be because of his hair, but that's what I think. |
 |
| Don't think Chane got any special powers and would guess that the monster can kill the immortals, dont think its jacuzzi tho :p Ladd is quite cool but imo Isaac and Miria are the coolest immortals so far :) |
 |
| Another wonderful episode. I hope Chane gets some action in the next episode, and that Ladd continues his insane rampage. The scene with him "almost" killing his uncle was fantastic. |
| I entertain the theory that the Rail Tracer is actually the young conductor. 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. |
|
| Lol, the episode title sure doesn't lie. Ladd Russo is one freaky bastard -- awesome! And I agree, BlueYoshi, the scene with his uncle was just awesome. I'm looking forward to his fight with Chane. About the Rail Tracer: Hmm... I'm thinking it could be the bandanna-wearing girl. She went out the coach train window at the hijacking scene. And your theory, BadSeafood, is quite good. The young conductor's role is still a mystery, but if he's part of the credits, he has some importance. :) |

BadSeafood said: Indeed. Ladd Russo didn't disapoint ^_^. Quates also made his first appearance.. he looks mildly interesting. And as always Miria and Isac ftw~Can't hold them for false advertising. Ladd Russo was certainly both talking AND killing a lot. And enjoying himself. I'm really looking forward to seeing Jacuzzi in action in the next ep. |
     |
| What amazes me is that they actually got the Babe Ruth and Ty Cobb uniforms right! Babe Ruth was a Yankee and Ty Cobb a Tiger. Very good job on the part of the writers and animators. |
   |
| Awesomeness to the max, need next episode, etc etc. This show is just win. |

Ladd Russo's especially is fantastic, it takes someone special to be able to pull off his range of emotions in such a condensed package. Ladd Russo's VA is doing an epic job. Only thing about the voice work that's bothering me is that Czeslaw sounds exactly like a little girl. Favorite scene: Ladd getting all giddy as he skips down the hallway. |
 |
| Im starting to love this Ladd fellow. Hes a brilliant character! Not very realistic, but it doesnt have to be :D |
 |
| Isaac: Has there ever been a time when I have exposed you to any danger?" Miria: about 87 times.! Isaac: There look! It hasn't even been a hundred times yet! Miria: thats true! Amazing!. - From Baccano, episode 4 <3 :P |
 |
| I knew from the moment that Ladd was voiced by Fujiwara Keiji that I was going to love him. And I really do love him. Aside from the amazing seiyuu his character is off the wall and absolutely hysterical! Issac and Miria are too funny as well. <3 Each episode is just so entertaining! |
| cant wait to see more of ladd, the tittle of the ep. is fantastic x3 I love that this anime shows what every one was doing at the time, and they are doing a great job at it 8D (although I have little to none interest for that girl looking for her brother) :o wonder what that thing was at the end -wasnt expecting it- |
 |
| Woaaah... dude!! Ladd freaking PWNS!!! That liek 7 minutes of him beating up that one dude... that was awesooome. Cold-blooded assassin FTW! *__* But he's still second awesomest next to Firo. >/////< lol and of course Issac and Miria are there to liven the episode up. And that lil' boy looks liek he'll be an interesting character eventually too. Can't wait to see what Chane does. =P And hear more about that Dallas kid too. Suspenseful ending. o___o |

     Sig WILL change soon~ |
| I got lost. I thought Isaac and Miria were on the Flying Pussyfoot. So where exactly in the timeline did those scenes from New York come in. It seems they take place earlier but the train is supposed to get destroyed before Isaac and Miria get to New York right? |
 |
| Ladd is a straight killer, insane but good at his craft. And what the hell was that freaky shit at the end, that shit was like the chupacapbra or something. |
| Lmfao! This episode was awesome! Ladd was def. very bad ass! Things are finally starting to make sense for me though. |

||Drama List|| |
| So anyone here wants to get Ladd as his friend? LOL!!!! |
     |
| i just can't get enough of isaac and miria XD every moment is win |
| Ladd is just one sadistic b****rd! His bloodlust and his craving for carnage just seem to annoy me for some reason. Maybe because it's a bit excessive, or maybe it's just me. And there are Isaac and Miria: God, do I love that duo! They're like a pair of bumbling thieves out of a comedy! I can't wait to see more of those two in the future! All in all, I'm really enjoying this show so far. |
 |
| Ladd beat that dude's ass goddamn lol |
 |
| This show confuses me. -_- I love Issac and Miria, though. They're hilarious. |
| I am really enjoying Baccano |
| Ladd is awesome!!! He owned that guy pretty badly... Ladd sure like talking alot AND killing alot :) Miria & Isacc never fails to amuses me ^_^ |
| Issac and Miria are really a cute couple and I enjoy their interaction with each other. Ladd is some sick sadistic m*****rf****r and so are his homeboys! What bloodlust! Too bad that he's entertaining as well! I feel sorry for poor Lua. No surprise if something happens to him (which will probably be shown in all its grapfic glory) and she survives (hell, she might be the one who will do him in, you never know about those quiet people!) Although it takes an effort to keep up with the storyline(s), I'm enjoying this anime and can't wait for the next episode. |
 |
| Best episode so far. Ladd Russo is awesome. |
 |
| Ladd is so crazy. Plain as that. This anime keeps getting better. I can't wait to watch the next one! |
| Oh my, all the pieces are coming together. We get to see some flashbacks. They tell the story in a unique way. You'll be like "ooh that's what happened." xD Also, a meeting of immortal old people? Immortality Elixir?! Top secret Dallas case?! Interesting. Okay so Miria and Isaac sure were so freaking hilarious. I can't believe they were saying things about robbery in public, and wtf they were dancing in the middle of the road, lmfao. Ofcourse they got hit by a car, what do you expect? XD Man I'm in love with Miria. I just can't get enough of her "NEEEEE ISSAAAACUUUU." Ladd sure was a total bad ass in this episode. He beat that guy up so badly that you couldn't even recognize his face after the beating. Okay so two groups are going to clash. The white group and the black group, interesting. I wonder who was that monster in the end. Rail tracer anyone? |
| Ladd ftw! |
| this episode caught my attention |
| Ladd is one hell of a killer o_o ! |
| I like Ladd. @>@ |
| Hmm... |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| haha this anime is made of win...why didn't i start this earlier again? 5 out of f*cking 5 :D |

 |
| I'm still a little confused but the story so far is getting better and more action is taking place!! |
| LADDLADDLADDLADDLADDLADD He's my idol. Seriously, when you mentioned a 'psychotic' or 'sadist' or 'merciless' or 'insane', believe me, Ladd would appear in your mind RIGHT THAT INSTANT. Though Claire/Vino/Rail Tracer is farfarfar better than him in every aspects <3 |
