Balalaika exacts her revenge against the killers, even as one seeks the aid of the Lagoon Company.
Dutch sends Revy and Rock into town to run errands - and to make them face the tension that's boiling between them. Unfortunately, Revy's more accustomed to settling her problems one bullet at a time.
Revy and Ginji unleash on Chaka with brutal force, allowing Rock to grab Yukio and escape. The next day, Balalaika begins the next stage of her plan to violently eliminate the Washimine Group.

A Japanese businessman, captured by modern-day pirates, is written off and left for dead by his company. Tired of the corporate life, he opts to stick with the mercenaries that kidnapped him, becoming part of their gang.
This reviewer does mainly standard movies/TV (check out my reviews) but after a friend tipped me to Steins Gate (now seen it twice top to bottom) I was sort of hooked on quality anime.
This is my second fave anime. I apply the same standards I apply to film/TV -- the production (writing, audio, effects) has to be good enough to make you feel you left behind your own life and draw you in to another world.
(See for example the short-lived series BANSHEE, currently my #1 pick in recent live action TV ... and they shut down the series because they wanted to, not because the ratings were weak).
Black Lagoon makes me feel, like the character Rock, I left my world behind. The animation is to die for, the character are unforgettable (love the MAID!) and the dialog in the English dub is sassy.
Highly recommended.
