| I liked it. I liked this anime very much and somehow I could relate to it to some degree. I especially liked the design of the girls in the other world. |
If you are going to disagree with me, don't bother talking to me. I will seriously hurt you! |
| Final episode everything finally clicked for me, satisfying conclusion and I feel a lot better about this show now. |
| good ol happy ending |

| To use a tired old idiom, this show was nothing short of a masterpiece. To convey such a complex story filled with character development, emotions, a vivid tapestry of meaning behind each color, character, and emotion; telling a coming of age story that was brutal, beautiful, sad, heartwarming, tragic, and life affirming all at the same time, and to do this all in 8 episodes is an achievement I haven't seen in an anime in a long time. This was refreshing. This is what other anime should strive to be. To be artistic, and a cut above the rest; to make something that some people might not get, but for those who do, it will be considered one of the greats. Because it is an art form, and some people might have forgotten that. This my friends.....this reminded me of why I love anime so very much. Bravo 10/10 |

| Rewatching: The ending was so good. Hopefully Yu will be okay, going back to her own world. I loved seeing Kagari smile and be friends with the others at the end. Anyway, having rewatched it, I'm glad that I still loved it as much as I did watching it for the first time. Presentation-wise it gets a 10/10 from me. The art, artstyle, animation and especially the soundtrack is amazing. It's just a shame it got only 8 episodes to do what it wants to do, and so, unfortunately, it feels rushed in places. Had it gotten 12 episodes to work with, giving it the chance to space things out a bit more and flesh out some more of the details, it could have been even better. Still gets a solid 8/10 final score from me.  |

| I disliked this episode because of the forced drama and I dont feel pity at all. Everything is meh. I dont feel anything at all but disappointment. 1.75/5 Overall: 6/10 |

| I loved almost everything about the concept of Black Rock Shooter. The brutality of the battles, the sound design, the artistic design (world, weapons, etc), the soundtrack, the story of the first two episodes (hit incredibly personal for me and the troubles of making friends within my childhood) were all beautifully done. While I loved the concept, unfortunately the execution didn't quite live up to the feelings above. I think the story would have been much stronger had the creators stuck with the friendship triangle of the first few episodes as the main driving force of the show. With only 8 episodes, they really tried to cram in too much story and too many characters (without much needed development). What we got was a cast of supporting characters in starring roles, and a host of story lines without a satisfying finish. Personally, I would have loved it if the creators kept the alternate world completely abstract. The first two episodes were perfection in my opinion. The story line could have continued as it did just with a modified ending, with the battle world being completely internal, and still have finished strong, if not stronger than it did. That said, I absolutely loved what this anime put on display. I rarely rewatch episodes/series, but this is definitely one I'm drawn to revisiting. |
| 10/10 eh, it's enjoyable for me. The battle scene of this anime is really good, i didn't really mind the CG even from the start of the show. The OP is a huge plus since i am a fan of Vocaloid and the ED is great, overall the show is enjoyable for me and that's what matters. As for the last episode, i get the feeling that IBRS will not be able to beat Yuu if it's a "last man standing" kind of battle or if STR didn't sacrifice herself, also speaking of STR, as much as i like BRS and how cool she is, i am gonna give the title of best character to STR, STR has a lot more impact to me as a character than BRS or any other character of the show. Really good show and i would love to see more of it. |
| This series disappointed me, i expected to see lots of action, but it turned out to be a bad slice of life. aaah man i wasted my precious time with this one, i thought it was about black rock shooter and that very interesting world. If they focused on that world it would have turned out great. 5/10. |

| I enjoyed that re-watch a lot more than I thought I would. It was really good when I'm not confused as fuck as to what is going on lol. I first watched this back in 2015 when I was just getting into anime so a psychological anime like this confused the fuck out of me when I first watched it but I still liked it. But re-watching now I just have a newfound appreciation for it. Its nice. But definitely one thing I found re-watching this was feeling bad for BRS all the way through cause the one thing I remembered about this series was BRS at the end where they say the whole "We love you all" thing. Thats the one vivid scene I remember and I love BRS for it. Matoi is also really good but BRS is just cute as fuck. Also, when I re-watched this with that existing knowledge you can see how brutal BRS is when it comes to Matoi. She will DESTROY anyone just for Matoi. This is another reason I love BRS so much. She fights for Matoi and its adorable. Well in summary, great re-watch. Very happy. |
| Yuritopia FTW!!!!!!!!! BANZAI TO YURI !!!!!!!!!!!! |
| A happy ending. Well, it wasn't anything amazing. 6/10 |
 |
| Got a bit annoyed with the fighting world as I couldn't get a grasp on how they connected. Tho, the pain the girls went through was something else. |
| Guess you need a rewatch to grasp everything going around, still not like you can't on your first time. Things ended up for good, they made up with each other and guess it gives the feeling of a conclusive finale. Though it doesn't mean ignoring some over the top moments we got throughout and that isn't in a complimentary sense btw. Atleast the music and actions scenes were top notch. 6.5-7/10. |
 |
| This one had me stone-faced the whole time🗿, wasn’t bad though, the cgi was very impressive. 5/10 |
under”Mebius” is my salvation  |
| I mean, it's a nice ending for the girls, but I struggle to care about it. Disappointed with this anime, I usually like Mari Okada's stuff, this time it just felt pretty convoluted and ridiculous. 4/10. |
| I'm confused with the story, maybe it's me that not concentrate enough while watching this or this anime really lack of explanation at first gonna give this anime 5 but with that good ending atleast i will give it 6 |
