| I wish I was interested in this show, but I'm not. Anyway, it wasn't the worst thing ever although it really let me down because I thought it could be as decent as something like Railgun or Shingeki. |
| As many have mentioned, definitely rushed, Kisara ending didn't surprise me at all. Most of us technically know shes out for blood from the start, it was Rentaro keeping her in check the whole time...to be honest she'd make quite the anti-hero given her strength and influence. In my opinion she might even make to be an excellent replacement for Seitenshi.... |
 |
| Wow I didn't expect Kisara to go yandere, but it was pretty cool. Only good part of the episode. |
| Enjoyable finale. But for the overall show 5/10. |
"Komugi, are you there?" |
| The battle against Aldebaran was kinda predictable. Even that Shouma would sacrifice himself. He lost everything he had already and his ability was perfect for that situation. I'm not sure if they really had to show the following though. Wouldn't it have been enough to end the show after Aldebarans defeat? I mean I don't really have a problem with Kisara killing people and especially assholes but don't make her show she "enjoyed "killing him >.> that was creepy as fuck and didn't fit the picture I got of her until that episode. Seriously the way that went through was a bit over the top. |
| so in the end it'll be Rentaro and Enju, the 10-yr old kid.. come on!.. she's like a little sister.. someone you'd protect and treasure.. nothing romantic.. I also agree with Kisara's ideals... protagonists these days with their rotten sense of justice and being pussy and shit... An eye for an eye, bitch. All in all it was kinda fine.. nothing that good but not bad either. 6/10 |
 |
| Cut a nigger in half, make him talk for 2 minutes after it then he dies... wat? |
   |
| Probably the only good points of this anime are the lolis and Yanagi Nagi and Yanagi Nagi. ^ oh wait |
"Your taste is shit cause you like what I hate. Believe me I have 1000 cartoons that I rated with less than 5."  |
| Kisara changed : 0 Rentoaro T______T |
ChibiReviews said: This anime is complete trash. Its a perfect example of what is wrong with our current anime industry. All major plot points were skipped or rushed. What happened to Enju's corrosive rate? What happened to that Initiator of Tina? All the personality changes of Rentaro and Kisara. Poor CGI All the deaths lacked any impact what so ever. Lot of off screen deaths that made no sense. I can go on and on. 1/10 Great to see you here Chibi. |
"Komugi, are you there?" |
Dredd said: Kisara was justified in doing what she did. Its Rentarou who doesn't deserve her. 4kicks said: Wtf is with Rentarou? I completely agree with Kisara. That asshole should have been killed, along with a bunch of other evil villains. Really though, if someone broke into your house to rob it, then murdered your family for the fun of it after that, would you simply forgive them? In this case, the person who was charged with protecting the city, instead cut corners to line his pockets. And that resulted in zero remorse after that decision lead to the deaths of thousands of people, including their own family--would you still forgive them after all that? If you answer yes, then you're either a saint, or just as mentally unstable as Rentarou. How it should have read: VP Brother: Yup, I did it. I don't give a fuck. Money is love, money is life. *Duel* VP Brother: My leg!!! *Head explodes* Rentarou: Why did you kill him!? Kisara: Because he killed my parents, and was the cause of death for a large percentage of the city's population? What are you, blind, deaf, and retarded? Rentarou: Enju...I might have to go full retard. I doubt this will get a sequel, but if it does, then I hope Rentarou smartens up, and listens to reason (Kisara's). +1 +2 |

I love little shocker surprises at the end. I was going to rate this a 9/10 but just because there are so many people crying about how much they didn't like this anime and if anyone rates it above a five they have bad taste I am going to give it a 10/10 just because. If I enjoy watching the show I rate it high. If you don't like something drop it and move on, leave it for the ones who enjoy it. People keep saying this as if to justify why this anime was so bad. THERE ARE A TON OF AMAZING 13 EPISODE ANIME. It's their fault for not making this a two cour. Even if they could only make a one cour the anime being rushed is DEFINITELY not the worst part of this anime. If it was just rushed and didn't have a shitty MC with laughable morals, boring fights scenes, terrible character development, random plot twists and cheap ways of pulling on your feels I could have given this a 7/10 and not a 5/10. Spouting the whole "if you don't enjoy it leave it for people who do" is a huge load of bullshit. It's called a forum for a reason, not everyone's gonna agree with you and you're gonna have to get used to that. I kept watching because of the potential this show had though it failed rather sadly. |
"Komugi, are you there?" |
| I was looking forward to the romance with Kisara. Hmmmmm, Rentarou's justice is a bit strange sometimes. |
 |
| I need that ending song why why why can I not find it anywheres :'( Also I have not been this pleased with music in a anime since .hack series lol. |

"a shitty MC" I think you're forgetting about the rest of characters. How can you expect a good MC when the whole cast is completely shallow and unsympathetic? Moments such as white-haired guy's sacrifice at the end at most can make you think "Oh, what a noble guy. Who was he again?" If not the more understandable "Why should I care?" At least the setting was interesting and the soundtrack was good. 5/10 |
| Why isn't this anime as dark as the scene with Kisara-san and her brother? I feel like that was the most interesting part of the anime by far, watching that technique annihilate her brother was amazingly dark! |
| Eh, I enjoyed this anime a lot. It had a lot of pretty dark moments that I can actually say caught me off guard and sometimes made me throw my arms in the air saying "WHY?!?". Such as the massacre of children after that class trip, or the cops that just point blank shoot the cursed child and of course, who could forget Kisara's execution technique at the end there. Best part for sure was the epic soundtrack. I definitely felt that I enjoyed this enough to give it a 9/10. |
| It was a very good anime 8/10 |
 |
| Can someone please PM me with what the actual story was like in the LN (I mean from the Aldebaran Arc onwards), because I get the feeling that with all these negatives piling up, there probably won't be a second season anyway. Would just love to know how much this ending deviated from the original script and what happens beyond this point. Edit: On finishing up the last episode just now, I have to say I actually found the end quite good. It leaves enough of a plot for a second season, and I don't actually think that Kisara's "evil" persona was suddenly thrown at us, there were clues in the last few episodes, it's just that because she's not in on the action much that you don't get to see "that" side of her. I'm all for a second season right now actually. I loved the city-scapes and all the epic panoramic views all around, the story really isn't all that bad, and the characters have more development than both NGNL and Mahouka combined. |

HESTIA   APPROVES |
| Kisara's sword skills have too much epic in them. Delayed slashes give off an awesome effect IMO. Never expected that head split... was expecting a stab to the heart or something. Felt kinda sad for that secretary, getting all the blood sprayed on her. Still haven't seen Seitenshi's bodyguard getting the pain he deserves. And I realised that they showed Enju's corrosion rate some time in the middle of the anime but have not even made any continuation from that since. I felt that there could be great potential in this anime (mainly due to the lolis) but it was somehow missing something. Wouldn't mind a S2 though if there are more Kisara's badass epicness. |
| I mainly see the animes... so don't blame me for not knowing about the Manga/LN |
| Aww man.. Its 4am and I just finished marathoning through this anime. It did felt like it was rushed. I dident read the Novel so I dont really know what's missing but I just feel that somethings missing.. Hmm, maybe some romance. Really wanted to see Kisara and Rentarou together. Enju and Tina would be furious if that was to happen though haha. The ending where Kisara killed her brother and Rentarou was like "W.T.F?! Do I even love you anymore?" kind of ruined it for me :(. Think I have a little crush on Kisara. |

YEAH I swear that 42.w.e% corrosion rate for Enju was just foreshadowing that she was going to turn all fucked up and demon but luckily that dident happen. Also that fucking scum guard (you know the one.. the asshole who hates Satomi.. aka the one who got his ass handed to him when Satomi was promoted to #300. ahh felt soo satisfied watching him shit his pants after trying soo hard to act badass) reminded me of that teacher from highschool of the dead. He should have died honestly, some monster should have came up to him and eat him up when he was dumping the batteries into the lake. |

| Weird series, weird end. 6/10 |
 |
| I really don't understand where the complaints are coming from... You guys either don't know what you watched, ignored what you watched or/and you are bitter about it not having more than two episodes per arc. Most of you want everything on a plate, thinking by yourselves is hard. Most of the complaints are unjustified and the latest one about Rentaro's justice with Kisara being weird is stupid as best. It's called having a belief on how the world should be and trying to follow that belief to the extent that anything that could make him look like a hypocrite should never be done. Funnily enough, it's the same with Seitenshi, but nobody seems to notice it, he even calls her an idiot but all he did was call himself one too, even so, he believes she can change the world with her peace. The whole thing of "Greater evil kills evil" works in a world where people don't have any type of morals, promoting this idea in this type of world doesn't work. Let's not forget that it's also similar to FMA B in why Rentaro is mad at Kisara for what she did. Think of Envy. It's the whole Moral Event Horizon deal. The only thing I can agree with is the overall "It could be better.", anything can be better, I'm sure most Anime would have more and longer explanations for all your spoonfeeding problems if they had 24-48 episodes. |

Play League of Legends here! Autocrat said: Hitler was good, objectively. |
| It wasn't that good but I found it interesting at times..and dam that last part with kisara. WhoAAAaaaa |
 |
| The pacing was just total shit. If the series took their time to make this, it would've been awesome. Probably season 2? The show ended with some questions and a possible start for another season. Give is a 7/10. Everything was amazing, but the pacing kinda ruined it. |
| Hmm....this reaction of Rentarou when Kisara killed her brother, I don´t really get it. What would he done if his brother had killed his family? Forgive him? I don´t think so.... So that was something I don´t understand. Why he will become her enemy? And she´s not really the absolute evil otherwise she wouldn´t have tears in her eyes. It´s a pitty that they end it up in this way with Kisara and Rentarou. Maybe season 2? Rentarou rescues Kisara? Who knows? A lot of questions are open. But overall I enjoyed Black Bullet. So let´s see if there will be come more. |
 |
| That ending was so disappointing. |
Ghost-Lightning said: That ending was so disappointing. kinda agree with this. Kisara has gone crazy. The ending..uh huh.. that's the ending? okay..this doesn't make any sense. time to read the manga. |
made by bunnyama |
| I actually quite liked the ending, thought the second half of the episode was really good. Okay it's a shit boss fight in the end, but I liked dark Kisara etc. Not sure why there is so much hate on Rentarou around here because he doesn't believe in capital punishment, cutting the guy in half in the dojo doesn't improve anyone's situation. |
| One day we will come upon each other, and for that day my claws, teeth, ears, hands and hair are at the ready. |
| I did like the last episode Apart from how they turn kisara to be. |
 |
| What the fuck? So they did end it with some sort of cliffhanger? I may only like the soundtracks but if only they continued about Kisara's issue, which is I think interesting, I may love this series too even just a little. Too bad that I doubt this will get a 2nd season. Oh well. |
 |
| A lot of things are still not explained so I hope there's going to be a 2nd season. If not that was just bad then. But I liked that ending in the train ;_; |

| This anime literally revitalized my love for Lolis. It was an amazing show with great art and good action with the whole sci-fi dystopian stuff. Can't wait for season 2. 8/10 |

| I like this eps. Kisara is like Yandere xD |

| Rentarou is the DUMBEST protagonist I've seen in a long time. He's good in a fight, but otherwise he's USELESS. He can't finish anyone off. He should have killed grandpa Tendou after the Kagetane incident, but no, let him try and destroy the city again. He should have killed that asshole with the glasses after the Tina incident, but no, let him try and fuck up our plan. He's USELESS.

|
| Meh.... bullshit ending and bullshit series..... First half of the series was bit better then it goes down hill like shit.... Finale - 2/5 Series - 5.5/10 |
 |
| Sigh. At least we got to see Kisara being a bad ass. The finale unfortunately was plagued by the pacing as well...I was truly expecting this to turn out to be one of the best of the spring season after the first 3 episodes but then it all went to shit. Shouldn't have expected much from the studio that ruined Code;Breaker as well. The ending with Enju and Rentarou was sweet though. 4/10 |
