basic trivia: very skippable....Black Rock Shooter was originally a character created by the artist Huke. He gave his permission to let it be used in the Hatsune Miku song Black Rock Shooter and due to the huge popularity of that video he became well known although many mistook Black Rock Shooter for Miku but it is well known that black rock shooter and miku are entirely different characters. Eventually Black rock shooter gained enough fame to warrant a OVA which is a Pilot episode to the anime.
The movie shows the life of Kuroi Mato a junior high school girl that befriends a girl named Takanashi Yomi. They quickly become best of friends and spend alot of time together. The year quickly passes and the following year they end up in different classes which ends up dramatically reducing the time they spend together. Yomi becomes jealous as Mato starts to befriend another girl and spend less time with her. This somehow leads to some epic otherworldly possession as Dead Master, an etheral presence quite similar to Black rock shooter, for some reason ends up exploiting the jelousy withing Yomi's heart to take control of her.
Well this movie is certainly a must watch for fans of Black Rock Shooter. However I don't think it would be enjoyable for someone who is not a fan. The movie by itself isn't really a masterpiece or anything in that direction. What makes this movie good imo is seeing the charactes you love come alive on video for the first time.
The music is certainly good and we have some fun choreography for the fighting scenes. There are alot of scenes that aren't explained and if you haven't familiarized yourself with the story you probably won't understand what is epic about them and you probably won't be thrilled when seeing this film. Well for the most part it is just showing the live of a Japanese junior high girl and i don't think that is something that many are interested in but this film was a really enjoyable watch for me.
