Synopsis

Rokurou "Rock" Okajima has joined the Lagoon Company, a pirate mercenary group which operates out of Roanapur, Thailand. Despite his initial protests, this filthy slum of depraved souls and merciless criminals now serves as the former salaryman's home. Stranded, with nothing left of his past life but the clothes on his back and his inner morality, Rock is forced to perform jobs alongside the other members of the Lagoon crew. Berated for his lack of spine as he wades through the underbelly of society, he must decide whether to continue on amidst the gunfire and ruthlessness or risk everything he has in an attempt to be free. Whether he chooses the comfort of a familiar land or the freedom of being an outlaw, his decision will have lasting consequences on the crew who gave him a home.

History: 14/20
Black Lagoon tells its story from the perspective of Rock. While it’s not groundbreaking, it’s compelling enough. The series follows Indian Ocean pirates who work for the mafia, featuring various arcs like the Nazi treasure hunt, Roberta the maid, and the Japan arc.
It’s a good story overall but doesn’t particularly excel in any single area.

Animation: 17/20
Personally, I prefer this type of animation that avoids excessive special effects or flashy visuals. The art style, color tones, and character designs are solid. However, there are some minor issues, such as animating background characters or distant elements, but they don’t detract significantly from the overall experience.

Sound: 18/20

Mixed Feelings
Black Lagoon isn't something that strives to make an impact on the viewer, it's an action, international themed story about mafia and strange villains that are too strong to exist, and that's okay.

The story tried new things, exploring the disturbing moral dilemmas of the twins, the fun aspects of the dollar girl, and questioning the goals of the protagonist in the last arc. I enjoyed each arc in varying degrees, but not everything works. Mostly, this feels much more wacky, much more contrived and stupid for its own good. It nudged the action into impossibility to the point where people might as well have some ...

Where to begin. Black Lagoon may in fact be the worst animation ever, and it boggled the mind that someone felt a second season was necessary. Just as well, I feel it is my duty to the MAL community to help cease the spread of misinformation that seems to be plaguing the internet about this "series" (and i use the term loosely I assure you)

Story:1 Basically it's just American garbage of run around and shoot everything that is in sight. Clearly, the creators of this atrocity felt the need to service the lowest common denominator. I find it rather insulting to be honest, that ...
