Black Lagoon 18
Ah. Another arc ended. And this ending. It didn’t impress me, in fact it wasn’t original at all and a plain gunfight episode. We’ve got the expected gunfight, and all the enemies are taken care of. First was the ‘yes-it-is-onee-chan’, who was shot down by Eda while Levi distracted her while Eda distracted her before Levi did it. Levi got slightly hurt and that was one enemy down.
Second: ‘the ghost woman’. She was blabbering her introduction, and lost her voice machine and got into a depression. The roof collapsed and she was down too.
Third: Rozon the Wizard. Took too much time with his introduction and was shot by Levi. But he wore a bullet proof vest so he is still alive. Meanwhile a pissed off Dutch arrived because his dock was set into a bonfire, and Benny. Levi, Eda, Rock and Jane got on the boat, took off. A few people jumped on too, but Dutch decided to rock the boat a bit with really nice turns. That’s fourth.
Fifth: The fatty exploded because Levi shot through him.
Sixth: Eda shot the cowboy to hell, not before revealing that she is part of the CIA. That can be very interesting because she is in this city investigating, or on the run. I had to bet on the second part because she wouldn’t be so violent like that if she wasn’t innocent.
The end. Jane and Benny liked each other, Rothon and ‘Yes-it-is-onee-chan’ became a couple too. Happy ending?
What to say about this episode. It was a lot of action. And when I say a lot, I mean a lot. And it was so much action and so much shot downs, that it became a bit too forced. I didn’t really enjoy myself this episode, because it were just gunfights. And you know that Levi and Eda were going to win anyway. Because the strongest of them all got shot down first, I kinda lost my interest in this episode. It was once again, a bit randomn. I liked the last episode better with the evil blackmailing Eda and the episode before that one with the weirdest church ever. Anyway, only six episodes to go.
