The story is set in around 1900 in america , and involves the maffia, alchemists, thieves & immortals
this 13 episodes anime is a real fast anime set on a train crossing america where a story develops in the train and many different parties with different agenda's (all involving some shady business one way or another ) all come together to make a very interesting situation on a moving train !
each episode follows one character on the train with a backstory on how he or she gets involved in the situation on the train, and this fills up the holles in the story as it goes giving hint to where the story is going aswell as explaining where the characters came from in play full way .
this story is one of my favorites all time : I would give it a 9,5
IT IS SHORT AND EXPLOSIVE and each episode gives more clarity aswell as more questions and in the end when the puzzle pieces fall together it blows you away leaving you with a feeling of fulfillment and a longing for more at the same time ! (and this is somewhat where durarara comes in )
