Not bad.
On to the next episode.
Please learn about cel animation and its technical process.
Learn how special effects and backlighting were done without computers.

Rewatching this because I'm in that kinda of mood. The sexual tension between Revy and Rock is apparent as early as this episode.

Good start to an anime. I like the action and characters kinda reminds me of Bebop and Dutch reminds me of Jet and Revy is badass like Spike. This is sitting on a 8.2/10 so far!

Revy is definitely the definition of a REAL "gunslinger girl".

The action was really good, and I mean like REALLY good.

Didn't take long to get to the action, very promising.

The ED is pretty mellow but the credits sequence is damn sexy

Wtf is up with that ending song? It sounds like something went wrong horribly and everyone's dead, only thing missing is blood dripping. Most actual bad end have a more upbeat soundtrack than that.

Anyways, i was expecting quite a bit after hearing from Black Lagoon here and there over the years, and now that i got around to watching it, it delivered. Time to raise expectations for the next episodes ii guess ;)

Great episode

So watched this on Toonami, and damn such a great episode. Revy is a badass in most of her scenes. I hope Rock can also be tied up into Revy.

Seemed okay to me. Revy's dirty mouth wasn't censored all too often.

Good first episode. We need more female characters like Revy in anime.

Toonami didn't butcher the episode so it looked great. Though still the censorship is still there. But I'm quite surprised they didn't bleep out 'Sh**' in there. Fuc* words are still censored. I don't why but it's funny how they censored stuff there.

Toonami censorship is so weird. "Fuck" is censored, but "shit" is not?

I've always wanted to get to watching this show and Toonami finally provided a good reason to. And it's not a bad start either.

I think it was good, but at the same time I felt like it was way too fast introduction into the story. Like 5-10 seconds about Rocks previous life, and than he starts being beaten and so on... :(

Watching in English dubbed. (after checking both sub and dub)

Damn, the OP was just amazing, and the soundtracks really remind me of the Death Note soundtracks (which I love)
The english voice actors (especially Brad Swaile) are really solid and again give the same vibe Death Note dubbed did for me.
Looking forward to the next episode.

This is a series that needs to be re-watched every once in awhile. I forgot how much they turned up the language in the dub.

So glad I bought this series.

I wanted to watch this for a long time, but I try to avoid watching series that are not finished. Anyway after all the anime I dropped recently, I became desperate

I just finished Seasons 1-2 plus the OVA, and I came back to the beginning to recommend the English dub to newcomers. I normally prefer sub over dub, but the English dub is top-notch and makes the plot easier to follow in places IMO. The voice actors for Revy and Dutch especially did a fantastic job.

They say "fuck" all the time in the manga. I wonder if they're gonna tone it down? None in the first episode. FUCK CENSORSHIP. I liked the opening very much.


Gotta watch the English dub for that
