| Summary: |
Okajima Rokuro is a Japanese businessman…in a town full of Japanese businessmen. His normal day consists of social drinking with clients and being kicked around by his bosses. He finally gets a break though, as he’s sent by his company to the tropical seas of Eastern China to deliver a disc…only his boat gets hijacked by a band of mercenaries that were hired to steal it. “Rock” (as he is newly dubbed by his captors) catches the interest of the only female merc “Revy” as she thinks he’s worth a ransom, taking him hostage. However, the disc turns out to be more trouble than its worth, and complicates things both for Rock, and the mercenaries known as Black Lagoon. |

I wasn't exactly sure what to expect from this anime, but it proved to be very entertaining. I especially like the use of irony and dark humor throughout.
You don't get a lot of backstory on the characters, but they reveal just enough to pull you in (p.s. Dutch is a total badass). It isn't the kind of series you'd choose for complex, dramatic characters anyway; but there's no shortage of fast-paced shoot-em-up action.
The plot has a political side which makes it a little harder to follow, but the action is so epic you'll probably want to watch it again anyway.
All in all, a great anime. Plenty of violence and humorous jabs, and an awesome opening theme. I'm excited to watch the continuation.
