Carol was right, Firo really does seem main character-ish.

One side has tommy guns, the other has revolvers while Nick has...a knife. Swift exit for him LOL!

Good episode, this one felt like first one that actually managed to be ok. I am still lost with that year jumping but let's see how this continues further.

I wonder - is train story being told throughout the series?

Ladd is really weird. And I'm not sure what to make of Lua either.

The nonlinear storytelling style doesn't bother me at all and it's very easy to know what's happening and when.

Still loved seeing Firo, Jacuzzi, and Miria. <3

So, alchemist creating immortality potions? Ok!
Very interesting and entertaining to see all these stories collide in a big story.

Issac and Miria are too dumb xD I love them, they are so hilarious.
The other guy, misunderstanding what his sister ("Nice", was it?) told him xD Just, stay in the restaurant wagon!
I do admit that with that angle and lighting she looked kinda hot, even with all those scars and eye patch. LIES!!

You probably shouldn't hijack a train with just a knife...


PD: Those time skips, I better focus more to keep track of the time axis and don't get confused.
PD2: That gore at the end tho! Oh boy, how I love zero censor!

Yes, it was chuckle-worthy, but that's pretty much it.

I'll keep watching, they say it becomes more understandable as the show goes on.

Ahaha, yeah they are hilarious XD

That was a great episode. Loved Firo's fight, and Isaac and Miria were funny as hell yet again.
That "immortality potion" was interesting, wonder if that's were the main characters got the immortality from or if it was some other way.

Plot is getting very interesting, really excited to know what happens next!

it seems things are starting to piece themselves together. Still confusing but that's the point so ok.
Hopefully by the end we get a cohesive story that is worth all the confusion, Seems ok so far.

It still feels like I'm on a roller coaster and honestly I want to get out of it by now.

The difference is that in the previous episode I was upset and then curious. In contrast, in this one I felt incredible boredom and then interest. At times I just thought about pausing it and going for a nap because apparently lying on a bed seemed more interesting than watching this.

It is a yes if someone asked me if this is a better chapter than the previous two because it is. And by that I’m telling a lot because the previous ones were... uh, a little bad/meh.

So this one is perfect? No, it is not close to the word. The same aspects that I did not like in the previous two are still here.

Memorable characters? Not yet. Memorable fights? No. Memorable dialogues? Not even closely. It seems that this anime will be one of those that are simply neutral, they are meh, that would not be worth watching again, as if you are killing time. Besides that there is nothing that stands out completely.

In some more few words: Boredom and interest are not two feelings that should be present in just 20 minutes. Nothing memorable in all these chapters and possibly I’ll be dropping this show because... it just doesn’t convince me.

This was a good episode, although I do feel like the time leaping was a bit too quick in this episode as the show flips through multiple timelines quite a lot without time to really adjust to what's happening. Still though, already setting up some things really nicely for the future episodes and I felt like the background visuals were really good as well as the choreography in general. The character designs look great but I do wish for a little more consistency in their drawings in general but I'm definitely getting more used to it by now.

Another good episode. Apparently the anime switches between the past and the present, I think the 'future' would be the first episode. A bit chaotic but at least it's understandable so far. Immortality elixirs? Well, I know why some of the characters got their powers, now we have to see how.

The rail tracer huh? It's time for the massacre..
The story is still pretty weird, they keep jumping from timeline to timeline. It's still very interesting and the characters are really interesting. Really wanna know more about each one of them.

Isaac and Miria are still the best lol, their sense of humor is the best.
Chill ED as always.

Enjoying it so far but I'm still finding it kind of impossible to follow smoothly with how frequently they just cut to totally different scenes and then jumping back in. and man those time jumps lol atp I'm ignoring the dates entirely and just hoping I sort of get it

the firo fight was epic, and I'm very pleasantly surprised by how good the dub is.

Hmm so the events are starting to get a lot more connectedbut it's still confusing.

(1931)Ladd's so annoying lol how does Lua even bear with him. He's also way too excited to kill people. Well the Lemures are gonna kill most, if not all of the people in that dining car. And on the other hand Eve's trying to find her brother Dallas who's been missing for a year.

(1930 ig)So there's a "formula" that can make you immortal and this Barnes guy made it for a Sir Quates. Aand Dallas got hold of two bottles of it. Wonder what he plans to do with it. Is he even an antagonist though?

When they all pulled out their guns, it was extremely badass.

I’m loving this anime even though I'm still confused after watching the third episode.

Ladd is a jerk, yet I can't help but like him. By the way, the men who started the fire were a bunch of morons who were extremely irresponsible. All of the characters appear to have interacted with one another at some point in time.

It was a lot of fun watching Firo beat those gangsters. The dude, on the other hand, took the immortal bottles.

The knife person made the correct decision by leaving; a knife against a gun is useless unless you’re a skillful.

that cliff hanger at the end is absolutely killing me. i'm super excited to see what comes next. the guy who i'm assuming created the immortality thing has some connection with ennis, and some other things.
also i love that they added some brief recap stuff, and mixed it with the opening, that was AWESOME. i'm loving this series so far, i'm having a blast watching it

The one who stole the box from Barnes must be immortal by now, not unless he didn't drink the potion.

She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did!
