ブラック・ブレット

Quite good animation but the foundation of the story is just too sad for me. Maybe worth to watch it once.

"In order for you to have the time to truly decide whether this world is worth saving or not, we need the world to keep existing"

I have my difficulties with "Black Bullet". I started the anime a few years ago, watched two episodes and then stopped again. Now I've seen it finished. So here are my thoughts.

The stucture of Black Bullet:

1. On the one hand, I think that the anime would have benifited from more episodes or a second season. Everything seemed so cramped and rushed to me.
2. On the other hand, I don't know if it was interesting enough to warrant more episodes.
3. Plot points were quickly introduced and rushed through. I was sometimes a bit confused during or at the end of an episode.

The writing of Black Bullet:

1. Either I was mentally absent for a short time and just didn't notice it or we learn almost nothing about Rentarou. Of course, we learn somethings about him (🦾🦿), but nothing really about him in terms of character.
2. Takuto Yasuwaki's "villain arc" is stupid and doesn't change or do anything within the story.
3. This is just a small point that gets on my nerves personally in some anime... Unnecessary conversations about the breasts of female characters.
4. This is now a somewhat bigger point, because I find it ... icky. The strange sexualization of the 'Cursed Children'. And the cursed children are, as the name suggests, children. I noticed it in some places, and I thinks it's well, strange.
