Black bullet essentially has your typical oblivious lead with a tragic past which gave rise to better-than-usual abilities. Nothing new in that regard. The story essentially centers around humanity vs Gastrea, a kind of virus which causes beasts to mutate - the longer the mutation is allowed to occur unchecked, the stronger the beast will be.

Despite being only 13 episodes, the series definitely tries to give plenty of feels, especially in the latter half. There are also some OK battle-scenes, although they tend to be short. This is definitely "seinen" grade - younger viewers might not enjoy some of the more mature themes explored. Some other reviewers pointed out that there is a "loli" aspect. While there's a nod in that general direction, this also ties in with the story, although as far as I know, there's no explanation why that particular class of person [spoilers redacted] cannot be male.

Is this anime worth watching? I believe so. Black bullet is not a top 10 series by any means, but very enjoyable nonetheless, and at 13 episodes, why not?
