Finally.

Ever since I watched episode 1 of Baccano yesterday in the afternoon, I have been curious about why the vice-director of Daily Days, Gustav Saint-Germain, mentions the year 1711 and the ship Advenna Avis as a possible starting point for the whole story.

Watched ep 2 a few days ago, but yeah this time my distraction wasn’t Pangya, but Poker. Oh well, one vice replaces the other huh. Either way, I must say this episode was a lot less random than the first one, which surprised me quite a bit. It was so different it nearly made me believe this was a different anime.
