8 episodes is really lame.... and makes me wonder why they don't just do it in ova format instead. 4 OVAs that are like 45 min each would make more sense then.

There goes the hype for my most anticipated Winter anime.

I probably would have preferred an OVA continuation as well.

I don't really like the way the animation looks compared to the OVA.

The character design changes, the insanely short length, above all the 3DCG... this is not what I .


Oh come on, the CGI isn't that bad. Makes the world the BRS sequences are set in look more alien and abstract.

I actually thougt it was visually stunning and it seems that they are going to be using a mesh of styles if that new pv is any indication.

8 episodes seems very odd. I can only imagine that the noitaminA block has a series in the works that will be longer than the typical 11 following B*RS or Un-Go will run for a few episodes longer.

Am I the only one that likes the new character designs?! Especially BRS'


I’m just trying to be okay. Some days it’s harder than others. I hide away the most real parts of myself from everyone else. The emotions that I try to escape from. The constant pain I feel. The nightmares that keep me awake at night.

It hurts sometimes... knowing that the world is continuing happily all around me while I continue to drown in alcohol and slowly die inside myself.

I think so :p
But seriously, I think that most people dislike the new designs because they feel moefied. I (and most of the people here I think) liked the character designs from the OVA, not because they were moe but because they were good. And now they did this to them. Also things like putting glasses on Yomi and changing hair styles make it feel like an entire new cast.

These "new" designs (the original world selves; however, I couldn't tell the "other" worlds were part of two different anime if they were put together, side-by-side) are VERY similar to Madoka Magica's.

And I can honestly believe they made them as such because of Madoka Magica's success; Aniplex is one of the producing companies behind both of these anime, and Aniplex is the BIG one behind the BRS TV anime (notice they had nothing to do with the OVA)

You honestly think they don't look even a little similar?

Madoka and Black Rock Shooter look nothing alike. Biggest difference is that Black Rock Shooter doesn't have wide faces.

If the sales are good for the first season, is there a chance for a second season? or will this just be a once off sort of deal?

With the latest trailer, the wait just got a whole lot harder! 8'D

Hey~ who thinks Mato will play a part in the "black rock shooter" world? I would hate for it to just be a metaphorical world that describes the girl's relationships... |D

On the other hand, Mato DID meet Black Rock Shooter at the end of the OVA- so who knows? :3

I actually liked the OVA; I thought it wasn't bad for an OVA.

This however, having seen the trailer, I am far from sure about. They changed Yomi's appearance and the appearance of Dead Master. Dead Master was my favourite character and now they've stuck a bloomin' vale on her and there's gold and I don't like it. She was the only one they messed with :(.

Not to mention I'm not so sure I like the new crazy character they've added either. We'll see.

What are you talking about? All the characters were and are lolis. That hasn't changed.

I just saw that it's going to be only 8 episodes long... I guess that explains why Thermae Romae aired before it, but... only 8, really? I thought 12 was already very short...

I still pretty much have no idea what Thermae Romae is. I know, I was pretty hyped for this and turns out it's such a low number of episodes. I would accept 11, but 8 is a biiit...yeah, short.

I think 8 episodes will be more than enough. Considering what the ova is like, I doubt the story of its TV version will be any more complicated. Rather than dragging it on aimlessly. It would be better to get to the point quickly and finish it off on a high note, before we start losing our attentions. Beside, having a short number of episodes means higher production quality, right? They can always do another season or even a movie if they feel like.

I don't like the new look of DeadMaster, not because of the OVA but because I read the manga and the one in the OVA is similar to the one in the manga...

I am seriously looking forward to this since I love the story behind the BRS world (those that read the manga too know's what I'm talking about).

Please, don't let it be a disappointment :S

I didn't say Black Rock Shooter looked like Madoka. MATO has similarities to Madoka.

And now that the anime has aired, seems like a lot of people are agreeing that BRS has a Madoka vibe, and even comparing the eyes of the new anime to the eyes in Madoka.

So was anyone actually expecting much out of this? I mean the only thing that made people obsessed with Black Rock Shooter was the concept of the character and that was it, which is something that I will never understand. Heck, you don't even have a character concept really, all you had was just how she looks like.

Anyways, that does not translate in anyway to any promise of an actual good plot. The plot seems pretty bad actually, though fanboys of the character might still like it, or bring themselves to like it, and buy the DVD anyways.

So just want to let you know I don't really like the OVA and didn't really care that much about the figmas etc....but this series is really good to believe, thanks to the series I finally appreciated Huke's original characters and now I'm collecting their figmas and guess what ~ I also pre-ordered the BD box set.

Talk about expecting nothing on this series ~ just to let you know....

I expected more because the OVA promised more.
