This.
Is.
Awesome.
It's also pretty perverted. Koe de Oshigoto is not for the platonic of mind. If you're innocent, step away before you get hurt. But if you love all things ecchi, hentai, and genres of a similar nature, DIG IN.
The plot already sounds interesting to most people, even to those who do not indulge in the sexually deviant. And you have to admit, you're pretty curious about what actually goes on behind the scenes of those eroge you're playing. What do the voice actors look like? Do they get embarrassed? It's all pretty intriguing stuff.
And at least for this first episode, the animators catch
...
the interest of the audience very well. It's a new crew; Studio Gokumi. And I have to say they're quite promising, based on their performance of Koe de Oshigoto. Besides a crazy interesting plot and a good adaptation of the original manga, the animations are clean and clear-cut, if not exactly special.
The characters are pretty cool too; although the main character's personality is quite typical, her actions are anything but. Her sister, as well as the people who work with Kanna, are all fun people, although the lack of development makes it difficult to make any real judgement about it yet.
Overall, the whole thing was extremely enjoyable. The story line is both interesting and funny, and there really isn't much to complain about, unless you aren't into ecchi. However; if you happen to be easily disgusted by perverted images and scenes, don't touch this anime! There is an extremely large amount of inappropriate material, although the most shocking things are thankfully censored.
All in all, Koe de Oshigoto is extremely interesting, if rather inappropriate. Hopefully the next 3 installments will be just as good.

Black Rock Shooter, the OVA, was based off the highly praised song composed by supercell composer ryo. The vocals were done by Hatsune Miku (vocaloid), and character designs by huke, a popular artist on both deviantart and pixiv. The original video, along with the song, tells of a heroine wandering through a barren wasteland. The song gained immense popularity, and soon, covers, remixes, and videos by fans were being created en masse.
One such video that received a lot of attention was a 3D pv, with a real storyline. It depicted Black Rock Shooter facing off against Dead Master, who was possessed by evil spirits. This
...
famous video was to become the basis of the Black Rock Shooter OVA.
Black Rock Shooter was green-lit for an anime OVA about a year and a half ago. It came out July 25th, 2010. Here are my thoughts about this long-awaited OVA.
First off, let's just say it was a little disappointing. Many people believe it simply wasn't worth the wait. Indeed, waiting a year and a half for a 50 minute OVA of average level wasn't fun. There are some really amazing things about Black Rock Shooter, but there are also a lot of points that were just bleh.
Plot 6/10: Let me confess, I expected it to be based almost entirely off of the 3D PV, so I already had high hopes and expectations. However, while the storyline is intriguing enough, the way it was presented was very poor. There simply wasn't enough development or explanation. There are too many points where the audience is left to its imagination, as well as some completely pointless scenes. While the real world plot was indeed developed enough, the BRS world was completely completely random at some points.
Art 10/10: Visually, the OVA was stunning. It was quite surprising, considering that the animations company, Ordet, is quite new to the scene. Black Rock Shooter was their first actual production, although they helped out animations for a few other anime, such as Kannagi: Crazy Shrine Maidens and the second season of Shakugan no Shana. The creepy world of Black Rock Shooter was drawn and animated so amazingly that seeing the landscape would send chills up my spine. The animations were quirky and abstract in the Black Rock Shooter world, and extremely clean and beautiful in the real world.
Sound 8/10: I love ryo's music, no kidding. The background music fit the OVA rather well, especially when you could hear Nagi's vocals weaving in and out of the background at some points. I'm a little miffed, however, that the actual song this OVA was based on didn't make its appearance, except as the main tune of some of the background music tracks. I mean, at least make it the OP or the ED!
Characters 8/10: For a 50 minute OVA, the characters were very well developed. We were able to see the personalities of Yomi and Mato in an instant. However, I don't believe that the BRS world was discussed very well. Admittedly, there isn't much need for explanation, but still, it would be nice to have some development. It was as if the characters were just BAM!, placed there, already knowing what to do and getting it done.
Enjoyment 7/10: I had extremely high expectations for this OVA, and the way they presented it was just very disappointing. It was definitely not worth waiting a year for! However, I think the only reason I enjoyed it as much as I did was BECAUSE of the fact I waited so long for it. While I was watching it, I felt a certain sense of relief, like, "Thank god, whether it turns out good or bad, the wait is finally over." All in all, it definitely did not live up to my expectations.
Final Judgement: Black Rock Shooter is worth watching, worth buying, and heck, it may even go down in history as the first Vocaloid-ish anime/OVA ever to come out. Maybe we'll see more of this in the future. (I wouldn't mind seeing a Kokoro/Kiseki OVA, or a Just be Friends OVA!) However, there are much better anime/OVAs out there, and the fact that Black Rock Shooter is best described as "slightly above average" is quite disappointing.

This is my first review, please bear with me (:
Well, let's just say that this was a disappointment. The first season was dramatic, epic, and amazing in all sorts of different ways. The second season... not so much.
Story 8/10:To be honest, disregarding the endless 8 arc, if this season wasn't a sequel to the first season, it probably would have sold really well. The storyline is pretty good, no matter what the haters say. However, the anime portrayal was fairly repulsive. When I watched episode 1, I was settling down for a high enjoyable new season. Endless 8 left me in pieces, however. It was
...
monumentally horrifying: after the first 2 episodes, I spent the rest of my time begging for it to end each week. What is even more fail is how Kyo Ani took the time to shoot each episode from a different angle. They didn't reuse a single frame. However, the 3rd arc was fairly well done, which is why I rated the story so high.
Art 7/10: Kyoto Ani... ;___; Let me explain why I was so sad. Kyoto Animations is an extremely well known animations group, most notably for Clannad and Kanon, not to mention Haruhi. Their animations are best described as spectacular. However, when they start Haruhi 2, they were fresh out of animation K-ON!, which had nice art, but was entirely unsuitable for Haruhi art. I mourned over the desecration of Kyon's face, and even more so Haruhi's, which had a look reminiscent of Yui from K-ON!. The animations are still far above average, but it looks like someone's been skimping on the money.
Enjoyment 7/10: I probably would have enjoyed it a lot more if I hadn't read the novels already, but since I did, the ruination of a great novel was no enjoyment. The promise of a Disappearance arc was evidently not fulfilled, although there will be a Disappearance movie in Japan theaters in February 2010. Coupled with the deteriorated art, this show was definitely not what it could have been.
Overall 7/10: I'm being really really lenient on this, because most Haruhi watchers, both lovers and haters, truly disliked season 2. However, I'm a liiittle bit hardcore; I absolutely loved season 1, and even though season 2 was a disappointment, I can't help but be a tiny bit biased.
Feedback is appreciated! ^^
