Black Lagoon, while nice, is notably budget-cautious for a Madhouse show, at least in the first season.

How did I not realize that? But indeed, it's a gritty, awesome show. Definitely an easy sort of gateway anime for anyone I know. Except maybe those that spurn excessive violence.

When Canaan the character does her dance in the first episode, she's running and jumping and twirling, and it's all so breathtakingly graceful. Black Lagoon's fights are great, but I believe it only matches that level of sheer delight in the "gun vs. katana" fight at the end of the second season. That said, I'm haunted by Liang Qi's last fight. That's what we waited for? All the anticipation built up from seeing her whirl around in a qipao in the opening... And that's what we get? Some fancy footwork and an intensely uncomfortable climax? I still can't believe it. I find Canaan’s better fights interesting, because they have so much fun with the motions of the body.
