ENGLISH:



Hello, Hive friends.

Today I bring you the second review of my Anime Challenge.

I had a lot of problems to watch it at the beginning, since my internet connection was failing a lot and it wouldn't let me watch the episodes online. I had to resort to downloading them to be able to watch them and continue with my challenge.

Like yesterday's review, first I will leave you the technical sheet and synopsis and then I will leave you my opinion based on strengths and weaknesses of the anime, and finally leaving my personal opinion about the series.

Without further ado, let's get to it.

Baccano!

Genre: Action, Comedy, Drama, Fantasy, Supernatural

Synopsis:

"Baccano!" is a series that takes place in various dates and locations, but all the stories are connected. The main plot is set in 1930s Chicago, where the Flying Pussyfoot transcontinental train begins its legendary journey. Along the way, a series of violent and chaotic events unfold involving alchemists, mobsters, thieves and ambitious scientists.

Strengths:

  1. Intricate and Messy Plot: The series has a unique way of storytelling, linking events that seem out of sync at first but become intertwined as the series progresses.
  2. Charismatic Characters: Each character has their own unique story and personality, which makes the series very entertaining and exciting.
  3. Action and Comedy: "Baccano!" combines fast-paced action scenes with comedic moments, creating a perfect balance between adrenaline and fun.

Weaknesses:

  1. Plot Complexity: The plot can be a bit confusing at first due to its non-linear structure and numerous characters.
  2. Violence: The series is quite violent, which may not be to the liking of all viewers.

Conclusion:

"Baccano!" is an anime that offers a unique blend of action, comedy and drama, with a complex plot and memorable characters. Although it can be a bit confusing at first, it is worth watching for its distinctive style and exciting story.

As I mentioned in its weaknesses, the series is quite violent and there is a lot of blood, however, it is not as graphic as you may come to believe. If you tolerate blood to a certain extent, you can watch this series no problem.

And as a bonus point, my favorite characters are Isaac and Miria. A couple of thieves who are a bit crazy and charismatic but have a good heart. Their crazy antics are what give the comic touch to the series and I really loved them.

Its opening, Gun's & Roses performed by Paradise Lunch, reminds me a bit of Cowboy Bebop's opening, which is simply a catchy tune accompanied by images introducing the characters and images from previous episodes and is quite enjoyable.

Without further ado, I can only invite you once again to watch this great series. I am sure you will enjoy it.

Go beyond! Plus Ultra!

Hola, amigos de Hive.

Hoy les traigo la segunda reseña de mi reto Anime Challenge.

Tuve bastantes problemas para poder verlo al principio, ya que mi conexión a internet estuvo fallando mucho y no me dejaba ver los episodios online. Tuve que recurrir a descargarlos para poder verlos y seguir con mi reto.

Como la reseña de ayer, primero les dejaré la ficha técnica y la sinópsis y luego les dejaré mi opinión basandome en puntos fuertes y debilidades del anime, para finalizar dejando mi opinión personal sobre la serie.

Sin más dilación, vamos a ello.

Baccano!

Género: Acción, Comedia, Drama, Fantasía, Sobrenatural
Estudio: Brain's Base
Episodios: 13 + 3 OVAs
Año de emisión: 2007

Sinopsis:

"Baccano!" es una serie que transcurre en diversas fechas y lugares, pero todas las historias están conectadas. La trama principal se desarrolla en la década de 1930 en Chicago, donde el tren transcontinental Flying Pussyfoot inicia su viaje legendario. A lo largo del camino, se desatan una serie de eventos violentos y caóticos que involucran a alquimistas, mafiosos, ladrones y científicos ambiciosos.

Puntos Fuertes:

  1. Trama Intrincada y Desordenada: La serie tiene una forma única de contar historias, vinculando eventos que parecen desincronizados al principio pero que se entrelazan a medida que avanza la serie.
  2. Personajes Carismáticos: Cada personaje tiene su propia historia y personalidad única, lo que hace que la serie sea muy entretenida y emocionante.
  3. Acción y Comedia: "Baccano!" combina escenas de acción trepidante con momentos cómicos, creando un equilibrio perfecto entre adrenalina y diversión.

Puntos Débiles:

  1. Complejidad del Argumento: La trama puede ser un poco confusa al principio debido a su estructura no lineal y los numerosos personajes.
  2. Violencia: La serie es bastante violenta, lo que puede no ser del agrado de todos los espectadores.

Conclusión:

"Baccano!" es un anime que ofrece una mezcla única de acción, comedia y drama, con una trama compleja y personajes memorables. Aunque puede ser un poco confuso al principio, vale la pena verlo por su estilo distintivo y su emocionante historia.

Como mencioné en sus puntos débiles, la serie es bastante violenta y hay mucha sangre, sin embargo, no es tan gráfica como se puede llegar a creer. Si toleras la sangre hasta cierto punto, puedes ver esta serie sin problema.

Y como punto extra, mis personajes favoritos son Isaac y Miria. Pareja de ladrones un poco loca y carismática pero que tienen un buen corazón. Sus locuras son lo que dan el toque cómico a la serie y de verdad que los amé.

Su opening, Gun's & Roses interpretado por Paradise Lunch, me recuerda un poco al de Cowboy Bebop, que es simplemente una melodía pegajosa acompañada de imágenes presentando a los personajes e imagenes de episodios previos y es bastante disfrutable.

Sin más que añadir, solo me queda invitarlos nuevamente a ver esta grandiosa serie. Estoy seguro de que la van a disfrutar.

¡Ve más allá! ¡Plus Ultra!
