What was Balalaika doing with the porn videos?
The scene in the manga (ch 9 pg 6-7) this is referencing is only a page and a half long and unless the translation I read was wonky the setup is different than the anime. In the anime as you saw Balalaika is using some sort of playback equipment and fiddling with a porn video and she comments about how she has &quot;15 more to do&quot; and she &quot;should've gotten an intern to do it&quot; which makes it seem as though she's editing the videos, that she's kind of a workaholic and didn't outsource this rather tacky job, kind of a weird scene but whatever, there isn't anything deeper going on. In the manga the scene is simpler and I think it makes more sense, Balalaika is actually just watching porn while the Black Lagoon cronies relay their message, there's no editing equipment, just a TV and then either Rock or Revy says that they have 15 errands to do (not Balalaika). There isn't anything deeper going on here either but it does give some fun characterization to Balalaika who is spending her free time watching porn, full deadpan and can't be bothered to pause it when conversing work with the Black Lagoonies
