I know I'm not the person to talk about it but I really really hope that Black★Rock Shooter The Animation follow the story as in the Black★Rock Shooter The Game. Black★Rock Shooter act more as Matoi Kuroi heart and also the other. I'll just be honest, the story was a bit random and somewhat boring.

There was so much expectation for this because of the quality of the OAV, and this show is good don't get me wrong, but it doesn't compare. The characters come off as one dimensional. The bonds that develop don't have the same weight, and the protagonist's optimism is a cover for her insecurities rather than born of personal strength and compassion.

The idea is really interesting and unique, and the fight scenes are amazing, but what's happening is a bit confusing in the beginning.

I watched the OVA a while ago when it first hit the net. Even then I found the concept of Black Rock Shooter and the other world a tad on the confusing side. Without giving away too many spoilers the OVA was at least clear in that it was about repairing a breaking friendship. This rendition of Black Rock Shooter confused the heck outta me all over again. It took me a long while to figure it out, but its well-worth the effort! I like animes that make viewers think and rewards them for doing so! This has it all: cction, some cases of extreme violence, (read more)

This anime series was so daaaamn sad. I'd love the story as much as I loved the OVA. But for the artwork, I prefer the OVA to the anime....

Very entertaining, way better than the OVA! the concept is interesting but i'm a little confused on how they can connect between both worlds. at first i thought black rock shooter and mato could only b/c of her flaming blue eye but very limited mato could only see through her dreams. the drawings for the alternative world where they fight is done quite well reflecting their personality!

This was a really fun anime to watch, I must admit. Im not sure how anyone else would see it. But if you like the sort of thing which involves fighting to keep your friends. This is for you.

Its always sad when an anime ends...

Well, BRS is well made.
I think in the beginning it's very confusing with the other world. But even after watching these 7 eps i didn't get it really :D

However BRS got a nice fighting style/animation, character design is not that awesome( the eyes are quite conspicious), but i think it's worth watching
Looking forward to the next ep ^^
