Chibi ballistics. Actually pretty neat. And a little bit of info about the guns Nagumo and Kanuka prefer.

Ota's acting like a maniac again. Yup, this is Patlabor.

Honestly, I didn't expect what is basically just a lore-dump in Chibi-form to be this good. The characters are on point, the information given to the viewer is actually really interesting and the artstyle fits pretty well for this kind of special. Also the OP is nice, even though it has some pretty strange lyrics haha.

ProIG really pulled out all the stops. The stylised animation in this is excellent.

Funfact: While the revolver is a 37mm it was originally a 20mm. 37mm is often used for smoke signals, and 20mm is an anti-material round. The last time I checked 20mm went for about $60 a round on the civilian market.
