Baccano rewired my 14 year old brain fr (true story) 🍾🗽🚂💰🔫
i made a sticker sheet for one of my favourite animes ever, for anime north 2023 this month! One of the drawings I did for my first ever con was Baccano, so I wanted to pay tribute. It makes me overjoyed the fandom is alive and kicking in 2023. if you can’t get to AN and you want the sticker sheet, keep an eye out this summer for my online shop!!
A lot of the media I first experienced when I was a teen was so formative for me as an artist, Baccano was one of them - and I love inputting vintage aesthetics in my art whenever possible (unfortunately not possible half of the time). I've watched the anime many times, and I'm almost done the 1st book, unfortunately I learned theres 22 other books (DW voice: I can't read!!! 💔)
Planning this sheet took a LOT of work - each individual sticker composition, trashing and reworking sketches, research and visual reference, drawing inspiration from the art nouveau and art deco periods, as well as film noir era posters.
There were countless times where I regretted my choices and thought, "Oh man, why did I do this to myself?! I think I should have drawn chibis of the characters instead!!". Planning and drawing this took so long that I couldn’t envision it being complete for my deadline. But with the power of god and anime I pulled through. I'm quite happy I went with this more graphic design approach! I definitely want to try more graphic design stuff in the future, it’s a lot of fun 🤔🤔
I ended up with a completely NEW pinterest board of 125 art deco related pins over the course of drawing this... help
the flames in the “The Grand Panacea” poster were inspired by these two posters

Anyway, watch/read Baccano!
you won't regret it i prommy
propaganda points:
two absolute dumbasses in love who are the backbone of this show's comedy
a pathetic little anxious meowmeow and his girlboss explosives-happy gf
1930s mafia shenanigans
a really really really cool train called the Flying Pussyfoot
a character named Jacuzzi Splot
a silent but hot goth girl assassin
the most aggravating asshole known to man <3
a guy who is first described as "protagonist-ish"
THE BEST AND SMOOTHEST ANIME OP YOU'LL EVER SEE AND I AM NOT FUCKING KIDDING
it has an anime that's fairly short so far and a good way to get into it at first, but its source is a series of about 22 light novels and it has a manga adaptation to boot. the anime only covers the first three novels btw, hence why it's a REALLY good way to pique your interest into the series. also it's by the creator of durarara
it can be confusing at first bc it's not told in chronological order but i beg of you, give it a chance. wait til at least after episode 2 before you decide it's not for you
so yeah. watch/read Baccano!

There are a lot of stupid couples in anime, but these two have got to be in the running for the stupidest (oh to be so busy laughing and enjoying life with your partner that you don’t notice you’re immortal for 70 years)

Ryogo Narita, the author of Durarara and Baccano, has a new show and it has kind of isekai initial premise which worried me at the start but i can assure you all that so far it fucks severely and after two episodes it is set up for a really fun urban fantasy
Dead Mount Death Play is the name, check it out
