13 episodes of some of the best anime ive seen. the story is really not my usual scene, but after episode 1 the series just drags you in.
character development and storytelling is very very good with multiple flash forwards and backs that at first confuse, but soon begin to make sense.
plot summary from ANN: 'Each of the stories in the series involves several (seemingly) unrelated plots intersecting and crossing each other as events spiral farther and farther out of control. Immortal alchemists, mafia operated speakeasies, and many other elements of pulp fiction mashed together for a world straight out of the movies'
