who would win in a fight Spike or Revy

Ah, the episodic nature of CB made feel as if the story was disjoint (on purpose), and doesn't feed into the psychological analysis as much as Black Lagoon.

As for the Apocalypse Now/Heart of Darkness reference, I did say setting and tone, not the psychoanalysis. The psychology in there is far deeper than Black Lagoon, but from what I've seen in anime, Black Lagoon does hit the psychoanalysis pretty hard, similar to Ergo Proxy and Texhnolyze but more realistic than the two mentioned.

I haven't watched all episodes of Black Lagoon so I didn't know but I meant Spike.

Spike has skills that allowed him to become a successor of the head of a clan which in terms is like Balalaika's leadership of the Russian Mafia, and Balalaika > Revy. So based off this Spike > Revy.

Agreed. But they both went the profound life moments route making them similar as well.



I didn't think BL even went that far. Wasn't much to think and analyze about really except for the twin killers arc.

Spike could beat Revy, but 9/10 times I have to side with the psychopath.

Revy is really good with guns, but too easily distracted and enraged.

And Spike is good at talking as well as shooting, so Imma have to go with him on this one.

Mistah Chang, he is better at both aspects than both contestants.
