Anime in Focus: Black Lagoon Episode 6


But wait, aren’t you going to post a link to the previous episode? The answer is no, I’m not. I watched that in the anime club a semester or so ago, and it’s all mushed together right now. So the anime in focus section on Black Lagoon will be missing episodes 1-5 until I feel like rewatching them (could be a while)

This is part two of a two parter for this series. Part one was kinda boring, as not much happened. The team on the Black Lagoon was sent down to go retrieve a relic of the nazi regime, while being apposed by neo Nazis. The neo nazi’s want it in order to boost morale. In the previous episode, the nazi’s managed to steal the pointing, and now the Black Lagoon team is going to go shoot those bastards to get it back.

The Nazi’s don’t put up much of a fight, and our team of pirates have more issues dealing with each other than the nazis. Our psychotic action chick Revy, thinks the new guy is causing problems. Dutch, the boss, believes Revy is letting that get to her and screwing up the mission. There is a nice owned moment after the nazi commander makes a big speech towards Revy about his gun, then Revy shoots him in the face before he can use it.

Overall, this episode kinda lacked suspense, and I had no real doubts about the Black Lagoon’s ability to shoot everybody. Don’t really get as exited about this series as some of the other anime club members. Eh.

Coming whenever we watch it in club again:

Black Lagoon Episode 7
