Black Bullet - Initial Thoughts

Lets see, a typical not OP main character, a loli, a sexual Sensei, giant monsters, blood and pervy references. Not a bad start to Black Bullet. At least this first episode explains the back story and makes me want to continue the series unlike Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei (will post the first episode review soon). As usual this episode introduces the main characters, backstory and overall plot, and a very very suspicious bad-guy.

Quite a cool logo, like the way they used Kanji and Kana.

Characters

So far this episode just introduces the series' main characters, main villain and some supporting characters.

Rentaro Satomi, one of the main character of the series. A highschool student and a Promoter in Tendo Civil Security, he was involved in the war between the Gastrea and humans at a young age. His parents assumingly died in the war, currently living with Enju (his personal loli). 

Euji Aihara, a primary school student as well as being a Cursed Child and Rentaro's Initiator. Constantly calling Rentaro her "Fiance" and annoying him always. She seems quite close to Rentaro for reasons we will find out in later episodes. 

Kagetane, a mysterious masked character who serves as the series' main villain. Not a lot is known about him for now apart from the fact that he doesn't seem to die even after getting his neck twisted around.

Animation

The animation for this series is actually quite good, the gore and the monsters' movements are all very swift and smooth and makes the action scenes something to watch. 

Here comes the spider......

Here lies the spider.

Rentaro's personal loli....

Best scene in the episode. XD

Music

The opening theme is "black bullet" by fripside, the opening theme is quite good, fits the show quite well music wise. I do like some fripside songs and this one isn't bad, just nothing particularly outstanding or special. The ending theme is Tokohana by Nagi Yanagi. I love her songs and this song doesn't sound too bad. The song was interrupted by the main character and others talking and giving the back story of the series so I will have to listen to it properly next episode. 

Overall

Overall this episode is fairly entertaining, a good start in introducing the plot, main characters and rising some questions. Going to continue watching it to see how the story develops.
