Oops, i mistaken the monster you guys were refering to. Szilard was the "monster" devouring other shipmate, the other one that Maiza summoned was a demon?
For the demon, i suspect it's the blonde guy who talked to Maiza at the end of 1930 arc. Like Huey, the demon seemed to enjoy watching the chaos from afar hence, i doubt any of the characters directly involved in the 1930+ stories is him.

I'm just full of questions about this show.
How about the scene on top of the train when Huey appears behind Chane? Immortality alone wouldn't make that happen. A representation of Chane's imagination? Some form of telepathic contact? Perhaps Huey made a pact with that demon and has powers we haven't yet seen; the demon sure took a special interest in him. Huey having demonic powers would add an amusing touch to that conversation about his becoming Rail Tracer's father-in-law, wouldn't it? Oh, and after enlarging that picture some, I don't think it's Huey. I think it might be someone who spoke during the meeting, though. I might do a little prospecting in episode seven and see if I can find a match.

A representation of Chane's telepathic link with Huey?
Chane did tell Huey about Lemures' plan earlier when the Senator/Gov came to visit Huey to negotiate the release of his wife and daughter. Of course, it might be simultaneous monologue where both character gives their opinion/view and the scene arranged together so that it becomes a dialogue. Novel readers wanna confirm this? Demonic power or not, but i think most of the 1700 immortals have found some other powers/knowledge from their long years of research. Szilard was able to create homunculi so who can say what other immortals could do?

i really enjoyed the telepathic link between them, both scenes on the roof where great.
but i find it kinda funny that they made so many mistakes with the show after i watched several times, though there is always some mistakes in animation. like the location of each cart in the train is mixed sometimes, the conductor room is sometimes on the front and sometimes on the back of the train, i think there is a problem with the daylight system but im not sure about the location. also kinda funny the small slip up on the english chane wrote on the roof in the end... "i also try to find you", the rope scenes too but its illogical from the start thoug. |

Sorry for interrupting any discussions going on here
I just watched Baccano!'s first episode. There's only one word to describe my feelings. "Clueless" I don't know what's going on! Too many new characters/names to remember (I forgot 90% already) and some random scenes I find pretty amusing. Baccano! looks like Suzumiya Haruhi, except that the chronological order works inside the episode itself, not the series. Random, so confusing. What is this anime about? I decide on this series without an attempt to look at its summary. Should I continue on? At the same time, I wanted to continue Muteki Kanban Musume. One anime which has violence & blood, or the other with comedy and food. Couldn't decide..

I just finished this show in about two day, and wow it was great. The show just kept dragging me in and there was never a dull moment. Such a great show and really one of the best anime I seen. The anime had so many fun and interesting characters through out the show and really one of the reason why I loved the show. If I could give a score I would give a 10/10 easily.
Is there any plan on a sequel? Because I think there are still some issue that hasn't really been dealt with.

This show only covered a couple of the volumes so there is a ton more material waiting to be made into a sequel, but there are no actual plans to make that second season.
Sorry.

There's always hope. Heck, I'm still hoping for more Five Star Stories and it has been 20 years since they made that OVA, but there 11 volumes of manga waiting to be made into a real TV season. It could happen. Any day now they might make the announcement that there is a new TV series of Five Star Stories.
The sad truth is that most shows could have a second season that is never made. Still, I'm hoping for a second season of Baccano as well as more Five Star Stories. I've got another 50 shows on my hope list with them.

If you compare Baccano! to higurashi, then you can see the first 6-7 episodes as Question Arc where they introduce the setting and creates the problem. And the rest of the episodes would be Answer Arcs where the connection is carefully unraveled. Personally I enjoyed the ending very, VERY much. It is like having a triple orgy(?) Gonna go read the novels now. |

But yes, though the first episode is confusing, the more you watch it, the more you'll get to understand what's going on. This is what I like about Baccano. It didn't just make me curious on what will happen next, but it made me curious on how it all happened xD Don't let the many number of characters and confusing events put you down xD Many have regretted dropping the series after watching the first episode, because after marathoning everything they've realized how awesome it is xD Hehehe Tastes differ though. But for me, and to many others, Baccano is one of the most amazing series ever!!!! xD Sadly, not many have recognized its wonder, but it's really one of the best Hehe
