I say this Anime closely resembles Cowboy Bebop, but at least in Cowboy Bebop, Spike Speigel had motives and it ended with closure. There’s no real closure at the end of the series, and there’s no real motive for anything except getting more money. Sure there’s a plot but it’s not an awesome plot. Sure it makes for some GREAT scenes because you’re so damn hopeful that Revy and Rock might show signs of a relationship, but then nothing ever comes of it and you cry yourself to sleep that night. That’s just my perverted mind at work though *cough*…But really, the love story is so minor but still there that it almost makes me sad they even put it in the series. If they ever “accidentally” got themselves in a situation that bred sexual contact, they’d probably go crazy and start ripping off clothes. They both seem to hate each other’s guts, but you can also tell they’ve got something going on. Revy and Rock seem to have a very strange love relationship going on. There’s kind of an underlying love story going on in the series, but it’s definitely not the main focus, at least not this season (hope next season is just as good!). In any case, thumbs up to the atmosphere, I loved it! Some of them were damn artistic and very pleasant to watch. I’m going to throw in camera angles and the way scenes were filmed in here too. Almost all of their jobs ended up taking place at night or in a dark place. It was almost like they were a light in the darkness, and anything they did always seemed fun and exciting, even in the fucked up world they lived in. Everything was so melancholic and almost on the verge of being erie, yet you could always find solace in Dutch and his crew (even though sometimes they have some pretty grim moments). All the minor characters have their own personalities as well, and often times make the episodes much more enjoyable. Granted, the majority of the screen time went to Revy and Rock, but I also appreciated what Benny and Dutch brought to the story. What I do want to mention though, is that I felt like each character brought a unique and entertaining feeling to every episode. I won’t go into much depth here, but since there wasn’t anything more than a handful of characters, I’ll cover nearly all of them in the character section below. Guns seem so simple: “Boom Headshot!” and you’re dead, but Black Lagoon showed how sometimes it’s a little more to it than that(like you know, they dodge it n shit).Ĭharacters: (see below for character synopsis) Black Lagoon rekindled my love for action anime, especially gun style action, which tends to be a hard genre create decent action. I’ve watched a lot of action shows, and I find it harder and harder for action to impress me. I don’t think I’ve liked fight scenes as much as I like Black Lagoon’s fight scenes. It has less episodes and less plot, but I feel the quality of the action and the art is much higher.įavorite Track: Edison - Don’t Look Behind (requiem version) If you liked Cowboy Bebop for its action then you’ll probably enjoy Black Lagoon. If you just feel like having a fun time watching some kick ass action, then this will definintely not disappoint you.

There are some minor romance scenes, but nothing to make any die-hard romantics enjoy this series. Practically every scene is devoted to either action or traveling to the action. The only problem with it is that it only caters to a certain crowd. Not really sure what that means, but they do.

It’s a hard life, but they seem to enjoy it. The atmosphere they live in is very corrupt and it seems like only theives and gunman can survive their lifestyle. They do odd jobs for odd people, and usually end up in odd situations.
#BLACK LAGOON SEASON 1 PREVIEW FULL#
I’m really happy that I finally got to finish the full season, and I’m DEFINATELY keeping this anime and DEFINATELY watching the second season in the fall.īasically, the whole premise behind the show is that this company, the Lagoon Company, is a smuggling company. And after what seems like a lifetime after that, I’m finally reviewing it. Rating: 9.0/10 (Was too hard to rate this without being biased, sigh)Īfter waiting for what seemed like a lifetime, Shinsen-Subs finally subbed the last 2 episodes of Black Lagoon.
