Sum it up in a Sentence:
Follows the lives of immortals during the 1930s while being presented in a non-chronological manner.
Main Description
In 1711, a group of alchemists seeking eternal life gathered on a boat to summon the demon that held the secret. The demon agreed to give them what they wanted: an elixir of life, the ability to create more, and the secret to ending their new-found existence. The following night, alchemists began disappearing, "eaten" by one of their own. Realizing the threat posed by being in close proximity to each other, they decided to scatter across the world.
Centuries later, in Prohibition-era America, the immortals have come together once again, and chaos ensues.

The series effectively uses its non-chronological storytelling to make it interesting and suspenseful.
JimBobDole
I can't recommend this series enough. It's a great story with even better music and fleshed-out characters. For those of you who have seen it already, it's worth it to check out the dub. It's not bad and adds to the "American-ness."
