Well I figured since everyone else was posting there abridged series here I might as well post mine too. I'm sure most of you have already seen my first HORRIBLE episode but since then I have remade it and made 2 more. I would appreciate critique and opinions on them. First and foremost know that I am not a voice actor. Even though I have improved much I am not up to professional levels yet.

Episode 2 (http://youtu.be/zsda7TePgmA)

Episode 1 redo (http://youtu.be/aWaVOsSl7AU)

Episode 3 (http://youtu.be/xtMu4JF4zSk)

Episode 4 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=raIMn9UP2to)

Episode 5 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fHh6dYLC7fA)

Episode 6 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uO6zaH15cVA)

Episode 7 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7TDKquCuhrA)

Episode 8 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DqooarbT2F0)

Episode 9 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Atetd4LAg4k)

Episode 10 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x9iSpJofVUA)

Episode 11 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JA6knzQkH4) (Final episode in series)

Oh and in case you really want something to compare these too here's the original episode 1 (http://youtu.be/Z4hqe0Uq-Co). Just know, it's not so great.

Hey tony wasn't a repeated joke. I only used it once. Him hitting the girl repeatedly was suppose to be the joke but whatever.

This is why people should stop making abridged series, not every series is a good choice for it and Baccano is a prime example.

Fair enough criticism I guess.

It certainly isn't, here's the thing to keep in mind, there are a million bad abridged series out there and only a few good ones, you can throw in as many original jokes as you want but you have to be able to make fun of the series for what it is, which is incredibly hard because Baccano was really good in a legitimate story telling way and not in a campy this **** is awesome kind of way. Honestly I think you should put this project on hold and pick an easier target because what you're doing isn't working and some experience could turn this into something that works.

I don't know if you've seen a lot recent abridged series but abridging has evolved significantly since the days of just mocking the original series. Besides, I really don't consider this the official abridged series. It TEH abridged series not THE abridged series (see what I did there? :P) Will all due respect I will continue my work on the series. I don't have any other anime and no one has done it better... Yet.

I have never seen an abridged series that even started out just mocking the original series.

Look this isn't directed at you so much as it is the internet but Abridging hasn't evolved so much as the people who started were really funny and creative and a bunch of people who had no idea how to make something funny jumped on the abridging bandwagon; it's why about 90% of abridged series suck, because people don't grasp that it's really just lampooning a series for being exactly what it is, and even most of the people who do don't know how to make it funny. Either they're inconsistent, or they overuse a certain joke or they forget that you have to do more than make fun of just the plot/characters or sometimes their jokes just suck(ok most the time their jokes just suck). Go ahead and make your abridged series, hell go ahead and do whatever you want, just don't expect me to pull any punches when critiquing it.

Clearly you've never seen,Yugioh abridged, DBZ abridged, Negima abridged, Kampfer abridged Naruto abridged or Naruto abridged abridged(which admittedly does spend more time just being silly than not)

Yes I have, nope, nope, nope nope and nope unless your talking about the one the Yu-Gi-Oh guys did, in that case yes I have. But yeah none of them focus on mocking the show straight up. There is maybe refrences to how silly the show it but not many compared to the many more popculture references or self made jokes they make in each episode.

I don't know if you've ever seen Code MENT, but you should. And as for my series, I would like to thank you for actually taking the time to see it, that is the most of which I could ask of you :D

Hate to say it but they aren't going away any time soon Dx
The abridging community is far to big for that.

Also Nullmetal Alchemist is pretty funny, the guy originally did it as a one shot and people lost their **** because he was lampooning abridging but he's up to 4 episodes now. He's got a good mix of making fun of FMA for what it is and original silly material to keep it original. (And some really silly moments, I won't spoil anything but "he's carrots")
