Pop Culture / Black Rock Shooter
« on: September 26, 2009, 12:12:10 pm »
I heard on Sankaku Complex and a few other places that the Black Rock Shooter character is being made into an anime, which will have a pilot edition released next week and officially start next April.
Are any of you familiar with Black Rock Shooter? Do you have any opinions about this project?
I for one think this is amusingly interesting and hope that they actually do a good job with the storyline. So far all I can gather on the plot is this, patched together from various websites, trailers, and fanimes:
There are two girls, either friends or sisters. One of them is either kidnapped by or becomes (yes, there is some ambiguity here) "Dead Master", who takes over the world using an army of what appear to be mechs and glowing skeletons. In the process, Dead Master stabs the other girl, but she lives and becomes "Black Rock Shooter" (or something to that effect), gets a really big gun, and goes on a big quest through the postapocalyptic world either to rescue her friend/sister or kill Dead Master for revenge (more ambiguity...).
Sound exciting?
