Today’s going well. Lots of baccano, I’ll probably get to finish it tonight. It’s cool but it’s pretty dark, there’s like three insane characters and the show deals heavily with death and murdering, basically if the thought of “you live 80 years of your life but it can all end with one bullet” bothers you, I’d suggest you don’t watch it. Honestly I kinda wish I hadn’t. o.o; But I gotta finish it now! Then play starcraft tomorrow and get proooooo

Really? I didn’t get that at all from Baccano o.0 Even with the odd gruesome scene, I found it pretty light and happy overall. I guess the last few episodes are a lot lighter than most of the stuff on the train, and the ending is pretty much everyone lives happily forever after.

u see what I did thar

But yeah, rather than the the Fullmetal Alchemist view on alchemy for immortality, which is like “oh no I live forever and everyone I love will die on me” Baccano is more like “man awesome all of my friends and loved ones will live forever with me” and there’s always Isaac and Miria for comic relief. Czeslaw is definitely the most depressing character, especially if you include the stuff other people do to him, but other than I found it a fun and awesome show to sit down and plow through.
