Default I like the new anime Upotte!!

I like this new anime playing in Japan right now called Upotte!!

It's a cute schoolgirl comedy anime where the girls in their school are human forms of well known assault rifles. Funco (FN FNC) (my favorite character), Ichiroku (M16A4), Shigu (Sig 550) and Eru (L85A2) are charming. There's lot of cute comic moments in the show as well as detailed history and facts of military firearms and ammo. For those of you who haven't seen the show, I personally like to recommend this.

Here's Anime News Network's spotlight page on the show:

After watching the first episode....I don't get it. I just don't understand the Japanese sometimes.


You know that old joke about how your gun is a girl or in Full Metal Jacket, Gunny said to give your gun a girl's name because it's the only pussy you are going to get? I think some perverted guy in Japan heard those jokes and make them literal.

On the plus side, the gun details are great
