| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- (Did I miss anything the first 5 mins.? I thought it begins airing 12:50, but ended up airing 12:45) She's preparing for the festival and looking forward to seeing Takanashi. Takanashi didn't go, because the wheelchair girl stopped her from going. So... Wheelchair girl = Black Gold Saw? The girl is sad about Takanashi not being "Kotori Asobi" (not being freely go out like little bird). Just saw the CM that ED to this anime and Guilty Crown ED are in the same single. Wheelchair girl is stopping Takanashi from going for the girl by hurting herself. Just because she chased Takanashi, she hurt her leg by getting hit by the car. She "love" Takanashi too much and Takanashi's mother feels sorry for that wheelchair girl. So... what happens to the wheelchair girl? Did Takanashi successfully persuade her and get out from the whole not going out? ED is nice. |

| Kaguri is pretty damn yangire, but she had a good reason to be, she got hit by and crippled by a car. Hopefully she got better because she would be dangerous with a knife or any sharp object heck look what she did with a small sewing needle. Black Gold Saw appears after the defeat of Charriot. |

| I still prefer the older animation style, one of my only few complaints (and the character designs, although the glasses suit Yomi but not DM) In the opening, does the circle of the characters point at their opponents? If that's true, it'd be interesting since Deed Master is pointing at STr |

| The only that bother me it's the arts but you get used of it. All we know that Mato & Yomi is going to best friend, so what is going to happend next? No preview kind of suck lol. Suddent that Kagura chairwheel girl smile after and turn out to be better, she was such a psycho before. What really happening in the end? |

If that's true, it'd be interesting since Deed Master is pointing at STr Someone's theory from 4chan on them pointing their weapons at each other. BRS -> Chariot = wants to free Yomi Chariot -> Yomi = wants to possess Yomi DM -> Strength = jealous of Yuu being BFF with Mato Strength -> Goldsaw = Yuu doing what a friend is suppose to do and protecting Mato Goldsaw -> BRS = just random rivalry/worthy opponent cliche I guess Damn Kagari has some serious issues. |
| Wow! Today was BRS day for me, as I got my BLK Huke Selected Works art book today today, and the new episode! BLACK GOLD SAW! So fucking awesome! Can't wait to see more of her in action. I especially want her to be Irino-sensei, because Mamiko is awesome as a villain; I think it's pretty obvious that she is BGS. This episode was by far better than the first. Very fast paced. And BRS lopping off Chariot's head was fantastic. tsubasalover said: Takanashi didn't go, because the wheelchair girl stopped her from going. So... Wheelchair girl = Black Gold Saw? Wheelchair girl is obviously Kagari XD The " kaere" being repeated in the last episode (and this one) + in the last episode, Chariot (Kagari's other-self) was dropping macaroon's on BRS in the last episode, and now the macaroon shooter in this episode XD Plus, her feet are wheels, representing the wheelchair. Kurimu-chan said: In the opening, does the circle of the characters point at their opponents? If that's true, it'd be interesting since Deed Master is pointing at STr Not really. In the OVA, Yomi (DM) was upset about Mato and Yuu's (STR) relationship, so it makes sense that DM would want to kill STR, if the same were to happen in this re-telling. Yuri-Hime said: Strength -> Goldsaw = Yuu doing what a friend is suppose to do and protecting Mato I dunno about that one. STR is also seen fighting BRS in the opening... |

LadyOrihime said: I dunno about that one. STR is also seen fighting BRS in the opening... True and that's what someone thinks am just waiting to see. |
| Wow. Much more better episode than the last one. I love the art and animation all of it. The battle scenes. My favorite scene was the one with Kagari going Psycho, she kinda looked like Taiga but with blonde hair x-x IMO. ~And btw...is it me or the do characters themselves look a bit CG? |
 |
| The plot feels childish. The characters' actions feel unreal. The fantasy world is just a mirror image of the real world... filler? = =| Battle scenes are boring... One side gets owned, then it suddenly switches.... Lost interest... Sigh. At least ED is enjoyable. |
 |
| wtf happened at the end. |
| lol @ img bbcode not working, mal is such a great site |
| jgfdkljglkjsdkl this is SO ENTERTAINING. i need more nowwwwwww |
     |
| that shit was intense lol. good ep 4/5 |
| Great ep, this one provided some good vibes for me and I can't wait to see the others make their grand entrance in this show. I could care less for the change in animation since the action still gets there and this is their opportunity to actually focus on a more refined story for BRS even if it will only be 8 episodes. |
| Shit anime, retarded anime... i'm feeling raped. |
 |
| It's a pet peeve of mine to not see any black rocks being shot! xP Apart from that nice epi, but still lots on mysteries on the chars raison d'etre... (and wtf happened in that end? More mystery! xD) Not to mention that Black Gold Saw w/e, who is it? Like someone in Kagari past that made her afraid of going out? Maybe Yomi's mom? :O (probably some char not yet show I guess...) LadyOrihime said: More screen caps from the preview (in order) Thanks for the previews! But from them I don't think we'll have this Big Bad BGS identity in next epi... xP Shih said: The plot feels childish. The characters' actions feel unreal.

At least ED is enjoyable. I think they chars actions are quite real and credible, for their age at least. It's one of the reasons I like it... They're something like 12 years old? I can't say it's not "childish" in that case... xP And yeah, the action scene is more just to make the real world more impressive I guess, one thing don't work without the other. |
| Kagari is on my nerves now! >[ |
| Good ep. Looking foward for more. |

| Meh, still hoping it gets better. |
 |
| So when she "died", she changed personalities? Still prefer BRS's world than Kuroi's world. |
 |
AL19 said: Kagari is on my nerves now! >[ Crazy woman forcing a girl to be her slave? I think she's awesome. :D |
| Soooo what the fuck happened at the end? Yomi and Kagari switched personalities or some shit? |
 |
| Great episode. When BRS chopped off Chariot's head I nearly lost my breath. Wonder what's gonna happen to Kagari though. :/ Although her yandereness is what makes her my favorite character, I hope she tones it down a little. Carving a heart in Yomi's chest with a needle took it a little too far, atleast for me anyway. :/ |

| I loved it when Mato's gun transformed into a machine gun and she started shooting. Someone should make a gif of that. |
| It was a nice episode Much better than episode 1 Hope it will continue like this :) |
| Loved that epic machine gun. xD Wonder what happened to Kagari... it looked like some sort of a personality change. Still confused about the mixed reviews. I guess with BRS, you either love it or hate it(I watched the OVA btw). |
| Good episode liked more that last one,Kagari yangire all the way but i love her!!! i think the animation was a little little better or i was just me the old one is still better by much but still its ok. The fights in the other world were great,specially BRS machine gun was awesome. I wonder what will happen now after BRS cut Chariot head?? what happen to my cute crazy Kagari?? well next episode we get more also of BGS!! |
| At least it was better then the last one...so crazy bitch was pretty much a crazy neet and getting her head chopped off in the other world changed her to normal? still no matter how hard i looked at those candies she shot out they just reminded me of burgers..mmm burgers. |
 |
| The fights are so cool that I could watch the series just for that. |
| my theory was true :o But other than that I can see why it will only be 8 episodes. they didnt want to drag it out and for that I love it! :P The end was a bit WTF with the sudden change when she dies in the BRS world but guess we shall seee. That minigun part X_X total badass lol. The anime just keeps getting better, keep it coming :o |

| A lot better than the first episode, but the pace is still crazy. |
| wow... kagari is such a BITCH! what a manipulative piece of crap i mean seriously, cutting the heart on yomi's chest with a needle? looks like dead master is finally turning to mato/brs's side, hopefully stays that way but the ending was just wtf?! creepy smiles from both yomi and kagari ._. |
 <img src="http://i47.tinypic.com/2mw85l2.jpg" /> |
| It's like they crammed 10 episodes' worth of plot and character development into 45 minutes... what the actual fuck. |
| Don't forget. Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember her, you are not alone. |
| hope it get better.... so damn boring |
| What bothers me, aside from the over-simplistic plot, is that the battles, despite being very well done in terms of animation, don't make any sense at all. How does Black Rock Shooter not take ANY lasting damage from being run over by a giant spider mech and being impaled from front to back by its claws? How does she still run after being twisted by all those chains? How did that spider mech reform suddenly back to its original shape after BRS shot off its legs in the ending of the first episode? The battles scenes just end up being flashy fight scenes with no rhyme or reason to them... It also doesn't help the pacing that the battle scenes are shown for extremely short glimpses, which interrupts both the flow of the battles as well as the flow of the real world story. At least this episode, they gave us a few minutes of fighting uninterrupted, which was great. wheresthehandle said: It's like they crammed 10 episodes' worth of plot and character development into 45 minutes... what the actual fuck. It's certainly rushed I would have to agree. |

| Kagari really needs to fucking die. She is a major hinderance to my ability to like this show. |

| Kagari is an annoying brat. She creeps the hell outta me. |
| Kagari is definitely crazy, but no one can blame her for this since she suffered from her childhood. loved the epic brutally fight. and that BRS Gatling Gun was awesome too. a Black hair red eyes girl appear. not sure what is her name, but she's cool. and in the end did Mato chopped off Kagari head ? OMG lol 5/5 from me definitely looking forward to the next episode :) |
 |
| Great episode. The fighting was pretty intense, loved it. I hate Kagari so much. Hooray for BlackGold Saw! |

   |
| Sad episode... Our main character of this episode is most likely kagari(yes, i know...) with her stupid actions... So, i'll talk more about her and how i hate that b**tch...(Sorry i can't control my temper... She's too cruel and sadistic!!!) I actually expected Yomi to go and meet Kuroi(Mato) for the festival thingy... But well, i forgot about that kagari-b*tch that is so cruel that when Yomi talked back alittle about her opinion, she used a needle and made a heart-shaped "tattoo" Yomi's chest... So kagari was(she died?? Head severed...) the yellow(gold?) saw user? I forgot the name... What's with the red person being an extra when they are resolving the matter?!??! Ally or Enemy? She's so fake! Why can she stand?! Why can she move her hand when she says she can't!? "Heart-Problem"... Creepy disgusting person... Conclusion:I hate kagari...(the people that like her are most likely sadistic too...) That stupid act-pitiful-mind-F**King-B*TCH! Poor Yomi... |
| uhh... |
| Kagari is so annoying. And I was hoping that Yomi would be stronger than that. I am still confused over the other world events, but I hope they will explain what happens. And finally Black Gold Saw. ~ |
