“’s a secretive otaku as well” – He’s an Ultraman fan, and he uploaded pics visiting one of the museums a while back. I’m surprised Dreamworks/Toei/4Kids doesn’t get a mention. Might’ve been more interesting if they semi-modernized it. “tactical error releasing it here as Gunbuster 2” – The real tactical error is charging forty fucking bucks for two eps each and without a dub. I still don’t get why there’s a cult following for Dead Leaves, either. “Had a right to be worried ” – Yeah, I’ve avoided even getting used copies, because it made me think “Dead Leaves meets moe”. On the positive, though, it’s the first time anime and Star Trek finally collided via Patrick Stewart’s dub. I had high fucking expectations for it, too.

As an Otomo fan, it pains me to agree with that movie sucking. Though in terms of Shirow plots, I’d say Orion and GITS 1 are the most obtuse.
Compared to the sequel and the OVA, it’s good. Weren’t those supposed to be test reels and not what the final product would look like?
“I don’t think anyone here believes there’s no homeless people.” – Well, except for Bill O’ Reilly… What else? Fist made a come-back in new OVA + movie installments/spin-offs.

I think some of the sites which played certain segments for free also crashed from the hits. No one seemed sure it was actually happening until they put out the images and trailers. That was at least in development for three years. Just don't try to convince yourself it is anything more.“Animatrix might be #1” – Doubt it, since the Ghibli stuff, Naruto, DBZ probably have the edge with kids. And indeed its abundant action, jazzy soundtrack, and fine visuals (despite some of that mid-2000s desaturation) add up to a pleasantly diverting string of moving pictures. That "Baccano!" enjoys lasting success in the anime community is a victory of smoke and mirrors. This prohibits the characters from undergoing any development, and ultimately makes the story feel empty. His characters are individual enough to be recognisable despite the jumping back and forth - that's a success - but their motivation is often withheld to serve as pay-off, meaning the cast is only properly established once everything is about to wrap up. Like so many anime writers, Ryôgo Narita either doesn't know or doesn't care about the difference between establishment and development. But "Baccano!" has equally little to offer on a surface level. Granted, not every piece of entertainment has to be 'about' something. The smoke and mirrors may convince you it is about something, but it is not. In case of "Baccano!" you put the events in chronological order and you're done. Reconstructing that novel's supposed events requires the reader to reflect on the characters' relationship, their history, whether they even exist, on criticism, perspective, truth, art, and human nature. To assess its superficiality, compare "Baccano!" to arguably the greatest non-linear story of all time, Nabokov's "Pale Fire". However, "Baccano!" suffers from a typical case of Nolan-itis: confusing distortion with depth. When nearing the series' conclusion you get the sense of puzzle pieces sliding into their position, finally revealing the complete picture. As always in such cases it is a thrill to find out what really happened. Their story is told in a nonlinear fashion. Most prominent amongst these are a set of prohibition era gangsters, involved with several conflicts and dealing with the supernatural. Over the course of its sixteen episodes, we follow a large cast of characters through various time periods. Instead, they have made a visually appealing anime that will probably hold your attention until the end, but amounts to fairly little. "Baccano!" could have amounted to more than the sum of its parts had its creators known as much. If you take anything away from this review, let it be the moral that distortion does not equal depth. Now, not only are a new group of immortals created, but the simmering criminal underworld is about to explode.
The drinkers of this new elixir include Isaac and Miria, an eccentric pair of thieves the Gandor brothers, a Mafia family and their associates in the Camorra, the Martillos (who employ some of the original immortals). However, he loses it and it ends up going around town, taken to be a bottle of alcohol and unknowingly drunk by many residents. Neither of them crosses paths again till 1930, Manhattan, when Quates manages to create a new elixir of immortality. To reduce the risk of Quates tracking them all down, the group separates and goes their separate ways. The now-immortal group unanimously decides it wasn't worth it and destroy the elixir but one of them, Slizard Quates, starts to kill off his fellow immortals. In the year 1711, a group of alchemists are granted an elixir of immortality, with the stipulation that they must kill each other until there can be only one.
