Anime 8440 Black Lagoon Omake Suggestion

If you expect this to be as the first three seasons of Black Lagoon you're wrong. The Omake are just separated stories which have nothing to do with the original story. This serie is basically a comedy where each one of the stories is in a different world.

You will probably like this if you like to see the original characters in situations that differ from the original story because that is all it is.

No spoiler review!

Black Lagoon Omake is a spin-off of the popular anime series Black Lagoon. The Omake episodes are short, comedic skits that take place outside of the main story arc. As a fan of the original series, I had mixed feelings about the Omake episodes.

On one hand, the comedic elements were a welcome change of pace from the intense action and violence of the main series. The Omake episodes provide a nice break from the seriousness of the main story and offer a different look into the characters. The animation and character designs are consistent with the main series and the voice acting is ... top-notch as usual.

On the other hand, the Omake episodes feel somewhat just something from the main series. The skits are often nonsensical and don't add much to the overall Black Lagoon universe. Also, the episodes rely heavily on slapstick comedy and it can be hit or miss.

In conclusion, Black Lagoon Omake is a decent addition to the Black Lagoon franchise. It offers a comedic change of pace and a different look into the characters, but the humour can be hit or miss. If you're a fan of the main series, you might find it amusing, but it's not essential viewing and will not be missing out in anything if you don't watch it aswell. 5/10.

Warning possible Spoilers (If there is any)

That moment when you find the parody version of an anime series certainly changes your perspective on the show and the characters too because this was one weird, but somehow funny ride.

This is basically 7 episodes of 3 minute long parodies of the Black Lagoon characters.
I thought it was pretty funny seeing the characters from the show being put into these situations like if they were in High School, having their genders swapped around, seeing Revy as a surprising cute or Kawaii magical girl depending on how you pronounce it, what Balalaika would be like if Hansel and Gretel ... were her kids (yeah that's pretty f**king weird) and even showing the characters when they were kids.
I had no idea how to react my brain turned to mush watching this, sometimes I was either laughing my ass off or I was just completely weirded out because the focus of the episode was so stupid or just random.

There is not really much to talk about the characters since the show is showing them in a parody perspective and their personalities always change each episode since the subject of each episode is always different.

The artstyle looked like a child had made it which was probably the point of it since the show itself was a big joke although I felt like they put a lot of effort into making Revy look like a cute as hell magical girl or fairy.

The comedy was actually pretty funny, but absolutely weird and random mainly because like I said before my brain turned to mush so I couldn't take the show seriously then again you're not supposed to.

Overall this was something that probably didn't need to exist or maybe it existed because of the imagination of the fans, if you're a Black Lagoon fan maybe it's worth watching well it is less than an hour of your life, but I wouldn't watch it if you don't want to spoil the perspective you got from the main series.
