Anime adaptation announced

Original creator : Kitsune Tennouji

Plot summary : A newly hired teacher discovers that the female students at his new school all have excellent marksmanship skills — and happen to be anthropomorphized assault rifles.

Note : It's a four-panel manga, not normal manga.

This is going to be awesome :D

I was a bit turned off thinking it's just another moe show, but after looking at some chapters, it's pretty fun. :D

Indeed. Since the girls ARE guns, I'm expecting plenty of good jokes that involve handling their "weapons" :heh:.

Gives new meaning to "gundere".

wow! I didn't expect this news. It's a nice 4-koma manga though I'm not sure if I remember it as a 4-koma or a manga because from what I remember in the battles with sisters. It gives me impression of a manga. Haven't read this one n a while so I'm not sure.

I loved Eden's Bowy so this is instant look at

I didn't know it's from the same author. Now I'm a little bit more hyped.

Both this and Eden's Bowy are from the same author.

Eden's Bowy kinda sucked. Bad :(. I still liked this though. Glad I didn't know about it beforehand.


Eden's Bowy was okay, even though I never finished it. I still liked Upotte though.

Took a little peek at the manga and yea, I do think I will enjoy the anime when it swings around.
Girls + Guns(in detail) = gunporn(almost literally:heh:)

I've taken a keen liking to Elle, just like the gun she is based on she's a bit unreliable:p

Looking forward to this!

I'm gonna keep an eye out for this, I have to admit that I'm a bit of a gun-otaku. :heh:

...Wait, that doesn't make me violent, okay!? :upset:

Anyway, I've read the manga for a bit, and I really like how they designed the girls personalities to the guns they represent.

Is there any news on this? A website open yet?

Would be nice if you share the links?

The official site is open: http://www.upotte.jp/

news on when will it air?

Update

This will be produced by XEBEC , I'm pretty neutral about this,I'll wait for further staff info.

I didnt like the manga much, so im not sure about the anime.

You never know though an anime could work...

This is my rifle, and this is my gun.
This is for shooting, and this is for fun!

*SHOT*

*edit:

After reading the manga... now I can't wait to see the elder sisters in action, especially M14 :D

The design got better.

Uwa, isn't this the same character designer as the one for Kanokon and Ladies x Butler?

Uwa... (for the raping of the original design)
Uwa... (remembering the content of those two anime)

I can't say the design got better, really....they look so far off to the original, and I love Sig's eyes in the manga.

The anime is going to be directed by Takao Kato, with character-design by Akio Takami and music production by Nippon Columbia. It will premiere in April as a replacement of Mirai Nikki on Nico Nico Douga.

At least the art is better in comparison to the manga... did you saw them?

Thoses eyes still haunts me...

The anime's design isn't the same as the manga, personally I prefer the manga's design more than the anime design since it was butchered by Akio Takami. It would be better if Yuichi Oka adapts designs, but it was a joke !

Why do I feel like it will be epically boring :uhoh: it will turn into fan service sh*t.

I dunno, I prefer the anime art over the manga's, due to the latter having creepy eyes for the younger weapons especially Funco (although the older weapons like FAL-neesama *ehem* look alright in the manga).

Having seen what design was in the manga, my expectation on this anime just dropped. Hard.

no surprise in the character design after knowing it was xebec, around 80% of their animes have these character designs, on the other hand the character design improvrd over the manga, but the characters are now totally different from their original designs..

Speaking of the fanservice animes by Xebec (2008 and onward), almost all of these have designs similar to Akio Takami or Yuichi Oka.

Lol,they kept the T-back part:heh:

what do you mean T-back part? I read that part in the manga but is it being aired already or showing already? what season is set?

You will re-read that part in the manga. The T-back is apparently a shirt.

Darn it,you confused me so much I ended up re-read the manga just to make sure I did get the joke right...also,it's a joke,and I don't explain joke

Ah, this art style.

It will be gun.

Oh this show is looking pretty good to me now. I love ecchi shows. Seeing as how this one is done by Xebec and the Kanokon/Ladies vs Butlers character designer, it may be as epic as Kanokon/Ladies vs Butlers. Looks like I got another ecchi anime to look forward to in the spring besides Queen's Blade Rebellion.

LOL


oh yes!! in the past, you saw Strike Witches: girls+guns+pantsu= Loliporn

I'm dying to know how will this anime xD

This isn't an ecchi series. Only moe service with lots of gun shots. There is some good comedy though.

Unless of course they change it...

Cast revealed

It seems that Nomizu and Mina mostly appears in anime owned by Kadokawa, though Nomizu also voiced characters in few non-Kadokawa anime.

To tell you the truth i liked the change of the art style for once for some reason the original design never grow on me (i mean look at those eyes) but i still read it cause im a huge fan of Guns and all that military stuff.
