I'm going to keep it pretty short since this my first review and I don't actually know what I'm doing, but there were several key aspects I feel the anime was missing.
Many people commented on the fact that it had no storyline, and I'll let them slide there because honestly, many school setting animes lack a storyline or much of it and are still extremely enjoyable and successful. But Black Rock Shooter's storyline was so difficult for me to understand that I had to have at least 4 tabs of the 'black rock shooter wikia' page open while watching the show, almost like having a cheat sheet for a big test.
Along with that, the anime lacked a basic... Cause and Effect property, if you will. Many characters would have mental break downs and then recover and resume normal behavior 30 seconds later, that doesn't quite make sense. And as stated by previous reviewers, there was a complete lack of any type of Laws involving Physics, which leaves viewers confused as to the abilities of some characters.
Overall, I find that Black Rock Shooter was a poorly written anime with excellent art and animation, that it was hard to follow, and that there are still some aspects of the anime that I don't and will never understand.
