Why You Should Watch Black★Rock Shooter (TV):
Black★Rock Shooter (TV) is more than just a show about fighting. It’s a story about how people deal with their feelings and try to understand each other. If you like anime with lots of action, great animation, and a deeper story, you’ll love this one. Plus, it’s short, so you can watch it pretty quickly!
Even if some parts are a little confusing, it’s worth watching because the visuals are so cool and the story will stick with you. Give it a try—you might find yourself thinking about it long after it’s over.
A TVO Review
The show is a unique and
...
exciting anime that mixes big action scenes with a deep story about feelings and friendships. It’s only 8 episodes long, but it has much to say about how people deal with tough emotions like sadness, jealousy, and loneliness.
The Story
The show takes place in two worlds. The first world is the "real" world, where the characters are normal school girls dealing with things like arguments, jealousy, and feeling left out. The second world is a crazy, colorful battlefield where the main character, Black★Rock Shooter, fights giant enemies. The battles in this world represent the emotions the characters are feeling in real life. For example, if a character is really sad or angry, that might turn into a big fight in the other world.
It’s a cool way to show how our feelings can sometimes feel as big and overwhelming as a battle.
The Art and Animation
One of the best parts of this anime is how it looks. The "real" world has soft and light colors, but the battlefield world is super bright, with glowing lights, big weapons, and amazing action. Black★Rock Shooter herself looks really awesome with her blue, glowing eye and giant cannon.
The fights are incredible to watch. The animation is super smooth, and everything moves really fast. If you like action, these battles will blow you away.
The Characters
The characters are what make this show special. The main character, Mato Kuroi, is a happy and kind girl who tries her best to help her friends. But her best friend, Yomi Takanashi, feels jealous and lonely, and that causes problems between them. The story is about how they deal with their feelings and try to stay friends.
Even though the show is short, you really get to understand the characters and what they’re going through. It’s easy to relate to their problems because everyone has felt sad or left out at some point.
The Music
The music in Black★Rock Shooter is amazing. The opening song, “Black★Rock Shooter” by Supercell, is really beautiful and fits the show perfectly. The background music makes the action scenes even more exciting and the emotional scenes more powerful. The voice actors also do a great job bringing the characters to life, especially the English Dub.
Verdict
Just like the shows run time. I’d give Black★Rock Shooter (TV) a solid 8 out of 10.
