Can we talk about amazing side characters with awesome gimmicks in television or film? Inspector Lunge in Monster is my pick. The sniper dude with the mask in Boardwalk Empire is also cool.

>OP, what is that guy doing with his fingers?
You should watch the anime. But what he's doing is typing with his fingers as people talk, instead of wasting time writing notes. He imprints what he "types" into long-term memory, so he always has a memory of what people say. It makes him an amazing detective. Why RL detectives don't do shit, I don't know.

Weaboos not understanding the difference between anime and reality is always hilarious.

Anon, trust me. Watch Baccano! Just watch the intro if you have any doubt. It's pure distilled fun, and it's relatively short. It just... tells a great story. Don't listen to this anon >>215251315

shameless Guy Ritchie ripoff
>Don't listen to this anon

Because the human mind is faulty and paper and pencil are better for recall. It was meant to show how confident he was in his abilities and it even worked when he recalled dr tenma. Mnemonic devices are used by memory champions to recall all of the random strings of information. Memory palaces are a real thing.

Not for people with aphantasia.

What did Lunge even contribute to the plot? I watched the whole anime, but I don't remember that his investigations achieved any effect, the story kinda resolved itself without his help, even though the anime leads you on that he will make some big revelation.

He is the misguided and dedicated investigator trying to bring tenma to justice. He is always pursuing him and he is clever enough to find him.
