Black Rock-chan

Black★Rock-chan (ぶらっく★ろっくちゃん) is a 4-koma series which features both a super-deformed version of Black★Rock Shooter and her antics with Dead Master.

Plot
The Otherworld is considered to be a unusual place where battle never ceases. Among the inhabitants of the Otherworld are two beings: one who wishes to destroy the balance, and the one who strives to protect it.

However, on this side of the Otherworld, things are different.

Black★Rock-chan focuses on an unusual relationship between Rock-chan, the protector of the balance of the Otherworld, and De-chan, her presumed nemesis-turned-babysitter.
