Ok, could someone explain to clueless me what BRS is?
The only thing I know is that it's related to Vocaloid or something but I'm still confused.
The plot, characters, w.e have nothing at all to do with vocaloid. There is a resemblence in black rock shooter to Miku, but thats it, a resemblence. Only the song, Black Rock Shooter, was sung by Miku. BRS is bascially an animation based off the drawings by huke for the original song. Of course, at first they wanted a 12 episode anime, then a 6 episode anime, but in the end they give us a 50 minute OVA. Lovely. Here's the plot in a nutshell from MAL which is from the BRS official site:
These young girls hearts are pure, and then violent!
Mato Kuroi just got into junior high school, and on the first day, someone catches her eye; her classmate Yomi Takanashi. The two meet.
The innocent and naive Mato. The mature Yomi. Seemingly opposites, but the time they spend together only strengthens a growing friendship.
But as they go into their second year at the school, they get placed in separate classes, and they begin to grow apart.
But somewhere simultaneously...
In another world, a young girl, blue fire residing in her eyes, Black Rock Shooter faces another young girl; this one holding a jet-black scythe, Dead Master, and a battle to the death begins to unfold.
Anyway, I AM DISSAPOINT. With my small knowledge of japanese i watched the raw. The 50 minutes weren't enough to explain everything. They even left a cliffhanger ending. Now, if they continue with a series, this would be excellent, so I certainly hope they do (and then introduce IBRS so I can claim her) but if they dont...then I really am dissapoint.
