Black Lagoon

The latest and greatest of Japanese Animation. Found something new, or perhaps old and arcane... if it has to do with anime, it goes right here.

I just took a look at the manga for Black Lagoon.

And I have to say: This is one of those RARE cases where the anime isn't just a BIT better, it's WORLDS better than the manga. At least where I looked, in volume one. Sure the art is good, but there is so much missing, it all seems hasty, there are too few frames to describe the action, and even the dialogues come across as short. The anime makers really took what they found and improved upon it, by adding a lot to the atmosphere. And of course they got the find in a million with Revi's VA.

So Season 2 is over, too. Will there be a season 3? There were no grand ending credits, I'm still hoping.

I absolutely love the series, and I intend to read the mangas soon.

..the arc with the two Romanian children was horrifying.
