It's confusing at the beginning, but by the 3rd episode you will catch up to what's what. Perfect ending, awesome dialogues, great characters. Really worth the time to watch.

This anime took me off guard a little, I didn't really think that an anime based on the Prohibition story would be my thing.

Its quite disturbing to think that the law held no power and the mafia ruled the town; the same law makers who criminalised Black people, but were easily bribed by the mafia.

The story makes you think of our current capitalist system thriving on the nuferious and illicit actions of poliicians, law makers and big coperations.

Anyway this is Avilio's story who seeks revenge for the death of his family by the Vanetti family, the ones responsible for his family's murder, and sets about befriending the don's son, Nero, to set his vengeance in motion. Killing brings more killing, and revenge spawns more revenge. But there is a twist...

If you loved vinland saga then you are defenitely gonna love this show also ..

While this Prohibition-era mafia revenge story is simple and seen many times, the execution is what makes this show stand out and worth your time.

Solid animation, great atmosphere encapsulating the 1930s, and the plight of the main character is what will initially pull you in to continue watching. While the theme of "revenge being a dish best served cold" is blatantly the point of the show, the show introduces interesting dynamics between the main character and his targets that make the final decisions impactful and emotional. I appreciated the effort of the character development of the villains to make them unique rather than bland heartless killers.

The show is fast paced. It is either raising the stakes or changing the situation to keep the audience and the main characters on their toes. Also, morality is sometimes blurred in situations to avoid boredom of having a simple good vs. Evil battle.

There isn't much else to discuss. Simple story, great execution. Pick it up on blu-ray to enjoy in high definition to really make the animation really pop off the screen. The disc is cheap right now.

This show presents a very focused story. You already know what is going to happen yet you might not have any idea how that can happen, and that is what drags you into the story itself. Alright, we know its a revenge story, but how does the main character pull this through is what makes it an interesting watch. As you sit down and try to follow his plan, he always comes back and surprises you with a new twist, same goes for several other characters. And as you try to figure out the next step of this series, it proves you wrong, and this kind of anime always gets you coming back for more. I guess I'm naive enough to enjoy this show a lot. If you are a self acclaimed anime or movie expert, you can criticize this show with your pretentious words however you want. I see the effort that the staff has put in both story telling, art and heart. This show is worth watching this summer.
