Brain's Base Studio (1 of 2) - Baccano

For the next two posts, I'll be doing reviews of anime done by Brain's Base (and have manga counterparts, done by the same author, Ryohgo Nariita). To my best recollection, Baccano is revolves around an elixir that makes one immortal. A group of alchemists summon a demon, which the demon gives them an exlixir. The demon also tells the alchemists the only way of ending each other's lives. This can only be done by immortals devouring each other. The alchemists drink this elixir but promise to keep this a secret, but one of the alchemists starts devouring the others. The alchemists then disband realizing the danger of staying together.


Honestly, I get confused by Narita's works and story lines. But I enjoyed the anime a lot. Another complement goes to the background music of Baccano. I obtained a copy of the OST and I love it. Lots of that jazzy style of music, much like Cowboy Bebop. If anyone else knows the OST, definitely check out "In the Speak Easy", probably my favourite track (mostly because of my background in piano).

Full length episodes of Baccano! can also be found on youtube on Funamation's channel.

Any OST you enjoy? What's the best soundtrack you've heard? Any other anime's from Brain's Base or Narita you'd like to share?
