Anime Description: Black Lagoon
Black Lagoon all begins with a Japanese salary man named Rokuro Okajima. His normal everyday routine is broken up when he is assigned to Eastern China in order to deliver a special disc. However, his ship gets hijacked by a group of mercenaries known as the Black Lagoon.
Rokuro catches the attention of a female mercenary named Revy (the brawn of the Black Lagoon), and he is taken hostage. But little do they know, the disc that Rokuro is carrying begins a chain of events that bring trouble to their very doorstep. After helping quell the situation, Rokuro decides to join the group of mercenaries and leave his once mundane life behind forever. From then on, they prepare to take on any mission and any enemy (usually with a hail of bullets), no matter how dangerous, just so as long as the price is right.
