After having heard many people raving about this show, i decided to finally check it out. It was interesting the first couple of episodes, then devolved in to a weak plot and rushed stories, with mediocre characters that are rapidly expended throughout the series.
It ended up being nonsensical and bland, abeit very amusing at times and the action in it wasn't awful. Both of the main female leads were weak characters, with very little expansion. The protagonist, however, was a fairly interesting character, and the revelation of his story was the top point for this anime.
Watch it if you want.. but there is much

Black Lagoon: The Second Barrage
(Anime)

This anime is incredible, the second season makes it even more so. It requires a bit of maturity to watch, especially things like the twin arc.
It's not for the faint of heart, nor the overly sensitive. or those with strong moral backround. but for those who can look past it, this anime has it all. Action(lots of it) Comedy, and Tragedy; and a great story to go with it. What I don't like about it, which is just a minor nitpick, is while in the second season more of the plot follows Revy and Rock, they don't expand upon their relationship much. And the rest ...

It's hard to put this anime in to words, so I pick one, incredible.
what starts out to look like your generic run of the mill harem anime, turns in to a story of love, happiness, sadness and loss. somehow they were able to pack so much character devolopment in to 24 episodes that most stories can't do in 200. This anime will make you laugh, it'll make you cry, you will really feel for them all. It tugs at your heart in every way imaginable. from Yuuichi's carefree sarcastic behaviour, Mai's silent but cool attitude, or Ayu's irresistible cuteness and her trademark all famous ...

I highly enjoyed this anime/manga picking it up due to the controversy around. Despite the content I did find the censors highly annoying in the anime. At first it seems like a lolicon's dream fest, but the story is much deeper then that; it touches on child abuse among other things. Despite what many think, this isn't just some 'Pedophile' Series.
It's very well done, despite the behaviour of kokonoe rin, whom many found uncomfortable to watch; due to her precocious behavior. But if you can look past that, you can enjoy this anime/manga. |
