Very original story. I enjoyed it thouroughly. Thoughout the series I had no idea what was going to happen. No matter what I though the outcome would be or what I expected to happen, the story shattered it to bits. It has to be one of the top 25 animes i've seen. It is proof that not every excellent anime has to have excellent art.

The Black Cat series is a descent series. Though I admit it is tough to compete with the excellent manga series, I was hoping for a lot more when it came to this series.
I give the story a 6 because the series tried to follow the manga but at the same time the anime took the series into their own hands. They changed the plot and character interaction drastically. There were a lot of holes in the plot so it can be hard to follow if you havn't read the manga.
The art is terrific, 9.
Good sound effects but I hardly ... heard any music if there was any.
Characters, 9, though they changed the story the characters are the same lovable sweepers we know from the manga.
Enjoyment, 6, for the same reason for story.
Overall, I give it a 7. The beginning, drastically different from how the manga began, was very good. It beautifully painted the story between Train and Saya and her murder, but once they tried to get into the actual story that the manga followed, it began to be butchered. It went from saya's murder to fighting the Apostles of the Stars, who had no previous mention of in this series.
