Baccano interleaves a dozen storylines across three decades and four cities, and trusts the viewer to assemble them. There is the alchemist circle in 1711 that drinks an elixir of immortality and gets more than it bargained for. There is the Flying Pussyfoot, a Chicago-bound express train in 1931 that catches a mob assault, a cult assault, and a serial killer in the same overnight run. There is a New York mafia war and a missing bottle of the same elixir. And there is the thief couple Isaac and Miria, whose enthusiastic incompetence runs through every storyline and somehow holds the whole thing together.
