Claire and Chane

anime/manga/novel relationship
shrine included, in good shape

Claire Stanfield and Chane Laforet are two recurring characters in Japanese novel series Baccano!. Together they make up my favorite pairing in Baccano! universe, and I'm very happy to be running a small shrine for them at last.

Claire and Chane are both extremely unique and... strange characters. Maybe that's why they make such a good couple: only Claire can read Chane's mind without using voice, while only Chane can handle Claire's twisted philosophy of life in a matter-of-fact way. Their initial attraction might appear unrealistic in certain ways, mainly due to the nature of their profession, yet the relationship between them is beautiful in the sense that Claire and Chane complement each other both physically and spiritually. Long story short, I adore both of them for who they are and what they do for each other.

Critic's choice

All tracks are placed in random orders

Every piece of background music used for Claire and Chane's scenes together in the anime can be found in our jukebox. I have also included two extra tracks: Baccano!'s ending theme song in TV size and a voice clip from the end of Episode 13. The voice clip is very special because it contains one of the rare scenes where we can actually hear Chane's real voice! The BGM used for said scene was also beautiful but couldn't be found in the OST, so I decided to record it myself. I hope you enjoy it!
