hazelnutman said: HERP DERP Thank you captain obvious.Also, to everyone expecting a direct sequel to this particular OVA, don't hold your breath. The story didn't end in a cliffhanger at all - it's heavily implied that the cycle of loneliness continues, and what will happen afterwards will probably be a situation which almost carbon copies the first. |

| All the BGM seemed to be composed by Supercell's ryo =D. The dude is a genius, love his work. Worth watching, not really worth the wait. But I enjoyed it. |
| 頭脳は子供、見た目は大人！ ƪ(˘⌣˘)ʃ |
| Am I the only one who's not disappointed? I didn't really expect much from an OVA but I thought this was surprisingly good. It actually made me cry. O.o |
 |
neonie said: IZUMI64 said: 3. too short and rush But it was good yeah, for art and not for the story... |
| Music was good, I enjoyed this probably more then others because I wasn't closely following it. But I agree they could have done more with the ending, if they had I would have given it 5/5. 4/5 |
 |
neonie said: 2. is this a yuri anime Yes and for sake , why do ya think its a yuri anime? |
IZUMI64 said: 9/10....for me, because waiting some unclear anime for a year... big expectation turn into big disappointed... Big disappointment -> 9/10? wut? |
| Thought it is going to be a shounen...so in that case was a little disappointed. It was quiet normal....i wonder why did they show the little kid with white hair in the emo world. |
 |
| I liked it. No disappointment. Haters gonna hate |
| I don't like the very end :S |
| People will probably flame this show, but i found this show intereseting and worth the watch. 5/5 Well they should've made a 1h+ long movie instead and fill some missing parts, seemed kinda rushed, but it was still good. |
SLIPLVJul 25, 2010 7:46 AM
| 7/10: wasn't as good a thought it would be but i still enjoyed it. don't really understand how the kid with white hair and two bug guns fitted into it all. wasn't really worth the wait i don't think, and left more question's than answer's but i'll watch it again sometime. |

| Not the sort of reason I got into it in the first place. But I'm also into that schoolkid, everyday life in Japan sort of thing. Was sort of relaxing and kind of touching. I was pretty mesmerized by the whole thing. Including the slice of life aspect, since I'm into that too and I think they did it in a nice way where it just 'washed over me' so to speak. I just loved the art and the little gestures. Pretty fluid in a lot of ways. Black Rock Shooter = Minami-ke meets Vocaloid. Was kind of hoping for more action girl. But I'm never one to complain about slice of life. Could have indeed been a lot better in many ways, yeah the slice of life was really appealing. But there were problems aside from how enjoyable the slice of life was. I just don't like to be the person who whines about anime unless I just feel absolutely compelled to. And overall, I had a really good time and don't want to stomp over my enjoyable experience. It was fun. And well worth the watch. I was mesmerized and refreshed like a spring of magic cool water deep in a cave. That's all that matters. |
 Old avatar and sig retired for now. |
| This was okay for an OVA. :/ |
O_O |
| Disliked it... It was quite boring for me. 6/10. |
 |
| Eh... So much random Moe scenes of their lives and a lot of running at the start for Black Rock Shooter. MAL has this as a single-shot but the ending was sort of... I saw how some of the scenes tried to correlate but only towards the end. If you don't stretch it then neither of them actually made sense being animated together; besides the fact that the characters are in both worlds. |
| I'm so dissapoint. For what that school moments ;/ |
| @^ Score -> 5-7 i agree... it was quite boring.. at 1st when the trailer was out i thought of a 13+ episode anime... but ended up being a 1 episode OVA which.. had alot of questions and flaws and barely enough excitment .... although i rate high for most of the anime's ive watched... i can say that this is one of the disappointing anime ( w/ potential but ended up like... crap.... ) would have been better if it made more sence and yeah... :( And this is one of the most awaited anime by most fans due to the drawings and the figurines that were released.. but .. yeah.. :| GEEZ!!!! |

KillerYandere said: At times, it felt like they were trolling us. All these awesome trailers and they practically show the cool parts in the trailer. It's like M Night's Last Airbender all over again. I agree. This was a huge disappointment. All they show in the trailer is the flashy fighting while in the OVA it barely made a couple of minutes of segments of fighting. And it was never explained in the OVA why it's connected to the main story. Felt really disjointed right there. |
|
| Fight scene was just alright. Others just nothing special. P.S. I thought I was watching Ga-Rei Zero.O_O Anyone with me?:P |

| So I went into this with no expectations except for the character designs of BRS. And I only watched the trailer about an hour before I watched the OVA. Either way, it was okay. The SoL moments weren't horrible and I found it kind of nice how they became such good friends. But there was just so much of... staring blankly in the distance and sadly at a phone. Heck, this could've probably been 10 minutes shorter and nothing of value would've been lost. But I did like the art style for the checkered, or whatever, world with BRS. That was pretty nice. And the music wasn't bad either. Overall, 5-6/10. |
 |
| Eh, I kind of liked it. The slice of life parts were cozy (albeit a little bit too uneventful) and the BRS world had some nice art design. But yeah, it could've probably been shortened down to ~30 minutes without losing anything of importance. Gets plus points for the music, which was quite good. 6/10 |
 |
| The school part give me impression like it is K-On or Minami-ke and moments of Halloween like lolis fight xD that mix was a bit crazy but ok for me :) |

| Ooh cliffhanger~ I hope there's a series rather than an OVA. |
 |
| oversub fantasim!! |
     |
| It's just an OVA, but it was not bad. story has potential and I hope for a good TV series. |
 |
| Well personally i think the OVA was big dissapointment, fights were fine but the storyline was 4/10 at most. Nothing was really explained how did yomi transform to death master etc. Random fighting. PEople have Overrated it, shame on you who voted 5/5. ill be hoping it gets changed to anime where is ACTUAL plotline and some sense on storyline rather some boring slice of life. |
 |
| Much ado about very little. But I wonder, after reading a few pages of the comments here, how there are more votes for "Loved it!" than any other category. Most of the comments indicate disappointment. |
| I think they will look at the reception, and if it's good they'll surely make a sequel/series/movie. The fanbase is too big not to milk it as much as possible. edit: for those who liked the fights only, gg released a mutilated version with only the "Other World" scenes in a single file plus the bicycle/transformation scene, in what seems a slightly rearranged order. It's 17 minutes long. |

| ehhh what can i say ... with all that hype this was a disapointment in my eyes. Nothing special at all. Good fighiting scences and really good music with no story at all and i was so confused with the skiping betwhen school life and fighing. If this is the only OVA then its big fail. Hoping for another 1 or 2 OVA's 6/10 just because of the good music and decent fighting scenes. |
