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.
The main problem with this anime is that I didn't always feel the need to continue watching. The story was good but it didn't really pull me in.
Dialogue doesn't contain that much humour but otherwise it's well done.
Only some of the archs were captivating. I definitely didn't regret watching but it wouldn't have been my first choice.
