Darker than BLACK has easily become one of my favorite animes of all time. It has an engaging story with absolutely amazing characters to back it up. The animation was done by the studio BONES, which guarantees smooth and seamless scenes all across the board. Not to mention the soundtrack, which fits very nicely and it pleasant to hear. It may start out a little slow, and even confusing for some people, but it really picks up around episode 5. Not to say the first 4 are bad, they're just not some of my favorites. The series goes into 2-episode "mini-arcs" or storylines for the majority of its run. But by the middle, we start to see a continuous plot strung through it, emerging more and more as we go along. On that topic, the flow is very good. They don't reveal anything too quickly or slowly; the pace is just right. Not only that, neither plot nor character development suffer. They're both equally as important, which is nice considering most series' go for one or the other. It is a seinen (for adults), so it tends to have a more serious and grounded feel, as well as many deaths. But don't let that deter you; it does have its share of funny moments, especially in the OVA episode 26. The series has a high rewatch value. I've watched it completely through 3 times, and am still noticing little things I didn't see before. It's an amazing watch that deserves more recognition. I definitely recommend buying it!Read full review

Darker Than BLACK is a unique anime, the series just leaves you craving for more, the things you see in the show will make you either wish you were a Contractor or that you would never want to run into one of them in a dark alley.
