Black★Rock Shooter (anime)/YMMV: Difference between revisions

** The same thing happens with Kagari, with how she basically had Yomi on a leash. She made things ''even worse'' for herself {{spoiler|when she tells Mato ''straight to her face'' that Yomi's heart is dead. She gets a nasty slap in the face for it.}}

* [[Growing the Beard]]: The first two episodes were mostly [[Narm|narmy]] melodrama focusing on the creepy but oddly boring Kagari. After that she's [[Demoted to Extra]] and things start getting bizarre.

* [[Les Yay]]: Oh dear Lord, so much so than the OVA.

** The website takes this [[Up to Eleven]], ranting about their "bonds" together and even dropping the word "love" semi-vaguely in there.

** And of course the anime just completely runs with it ''in the first episode'' with Yomi calling Mato "beautiful".

** Not to mention the whole "Mato and Yomi blushing at calling each others' first names", Mato and Yuu apparently the only ones to share a bed at the training camp, and the part where Yuu points out that Mato's been with her "Tiny Bird", Mato reacts all giddy and embarrassed.

** {{spoiler|Mato and Yuu may have possibly the sweetest moment in the anime (Episode 5), to the point where they ''almost kiss in the middle of a sunset.''}}

** And in the final episode, {{spoiler|Yuu and Strength. [[Crack Pairing|Though that's practically]] [[Screw Yourself]].}}

* [[Narm]]: Most of the fight sequences are pretty violent and dramatic, but an unintentionally hilarious scene in Episode 7 has Strength [[Slapstick|grab BRS by the ankles and slap her against several walls like a wet towel]] (see page image for [[Amusing Injuries]]).

* [[Nightmare Fuel]]: Kagari. [[Creepy Doll|Ye]] [[Creepy Child|Gods]] [[Cute and Psycho|Ka]][[Yandere|ga]][[Evil Cripple|ri]].

** The [[Dark World]] is pretty much nightmare fuel all the time when you think about the fact that this is where people's minds go to process [[Mind Rape|PSYCHOLOGICAL PAIN.]]

*** {{spoiler|The fact that the last thing we hear from Mato as she fuses with BRS in episode 5 is [[Hell Is That Noise|her distorted scream.]]}}

*** It may be not so much but Yomi's [[Creator Breakdown]] painting of Mato can be considered as one. See Episode 5.

** Not to mention the Kagari/Yomi shippers.

* [[Some Anvils Need to Be Dropped]]: It's okay to feel sad sometimes. [[You Are Not Alone|You don't HAVE TO bear your sadness alone, after all.]]

* [[The Woobie]]: Arguably {{spoiler|Strength, who, after developing emotions, realized the impact of the pain she was taking on from Yuu, was suddenly catapulted by her human counterpart to switch places with her and forced into the real world, had to adjust to the strange new world with no friends until Mato's appearance, and generally had to cope with not really existing to people. She only wants to help Mato and the other girls, but quickly ends up losing Mato to (Insane) Black★Rock Shooter, and when trying to save her and Yuu from a potentially horrible fate, ends up scorned by Yuu herself.}}

** [[Iron Woobie]]: She is very aptly named.

* [[Crowning Music of Awesome]]: The music used in the fight with all the chains.

* [[Epileptic Trees]]: The story refuses to ''explain'' anything about Other World, or its denizens. As such, it is breeding grounds for [[Wild Mass Guessing]].
