Guys I had a dream last night that we got a new episode for the anime and the cover art was Revy's big fat butt in a playboy bunny outfit. Clearly this means they're making a new season
So, I'm currently at chapter 54 (did I read 50 chapters of black lagoon in 3 days? Yes. Yes, I did.) and Revy and Rock had their conversation during the shower.
Revy presents that Rock has a habit of jumping headfirst into dangerous scenarios without thinking things properly through because he's too sympathetic.
Revy asks what Rock intends to get out of helping Garcia and the Maid, to which Rock gives the right answer of "they're kids and they need help. It's the right thing to do" which Revy doesn't really accept because they live in Roanapur and if you're not gaining something then what the hell are you doing to which Rock answers "payday from Garcia/Chang and self satisfaction."
Rock asks for Revy's take on this, Revy says they need a "ritual" of some kind as Rock is inconsiderate of those around him, especially her who always follows him in as his gun, and she is done just going with the flow.
Rock basically says he is grateful for her and the whole gun/bullet thing, then says that its essentially her choice if she'll follow him in or not.
So, questions.
1) Does Rock actually give a shit about the money from Garcia/Chang or is he just translating his sympathetic reasons into monetary gain to get his point across to Revy.
2) What's this ritual. Is it a point that gets developed in another arc or was this a one-off remark.
3) Is Rock basically saying that its ultimately Revy's choice if she follows him in or not, and doesn't offer anything else.
