This one is def a keeper. Wasn't on my list until someone recommended it, now it's the best of this season for me so far.

Also, I'm in love with Yurapyon <3

First episode looks promising but you never really know until a few episodes in. I hope this is better then Girls und Panzer, which I didn't really enjoy.

I was genuinely surprised at how good this turned out to be. The OP was great, the airsoft SFX were realistic (with a hint of added bass :p) and the art style fit the setting quite well. And the smooth OST when battle went down... dat OST.

Edit: Oh first post made on MAL ;D.

shitttt totally cuteee. The main girl reminds me of that girl in that short anime about moe girls trying to climb mountains. They have the same kind of cuteness and shyness.

I like this anime already girls with guns have a certain charm even if they are air-soft guns.
What i like about air-soft guns is how much the resemble normal guns and something that was taken into detail in this anime.
From what i saw the had a M16, G36, P90, M60 and several other replica's.
The gun at the ending was real and the gun was rather obvious since the model was filled out on that sheet a Dessert Eagle with that knowledge i have to say it's surprising if a high school girl can shoot one of those things.
Since the Dessert Eagle has the highest recoil amongst the pistoles it's also one of the biggest pistols.

Since the M60 was a air-soft gun it's lighter than it's normal counterpart which weighs 10.5 kg, 23.15 lb, it's not that weird to see a girl walking around with the air soft version.
Don't know much about air-soft tactics but the M60 is normally used as suppressive fire with it's bipod placed on a solid object or the ground you can shoot it while holding it but it takes a pretty strong guy to do that.

Been waiting for this, so far looks entertaining enough, especially Karila.

I guess the comparison with Upotte and GuP is unavoidable, and while it wasn't as good as GuP, it has potential. Looking forward to more! 4/5.

Haou Airen by Shinjo Mayu, who seems to quite like airsoft too. The following is a photo of her:

So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

Definitely watching this! Curious about the real oddball and weirdo with the real gun:



The transition b/w the Cinderella gorn and the C3 club was absolutely hilarious (and better than the slow pick-ups in other similar series :P).

Not as effective as Aku no Hana, but seems like it manages to clean up those whose really into character design :D

Really entertaining.
Don't understand about all the military data such as gun types, so no comment on that.
But want to avoid comparing to GuP until it has proven itself. Setting the bar too high is a killjoy.

Well, that makes two moe-centered this season, wonder how many more I'll find. Wasn't a bad episode, but it's certainly probably the least anticipated of what's aired so far imo, right behind Kitakubu. Though I will say this: I really liked the OST during the game, that was really good.

The airsoft M60 with battery and bbs is around 16lbs and is still heavy with let say 30 to 2 hours skirmish airsoft game, I think you be tired. I use a LCT RPK 74 and it's 10 pounds without mags and web gear.

LMGs in airsoft are pretty useless because you can suppress with any airsoft on fullauto without the barrel heating up and burning but usually rules in airsoft make LMGs play a role aka ammo limits.

Also did anyone notice the girl blind firing her pistol, that's a cheap poor sport tactic. Blind firing is usually banned at games.

I'm liking the OP. The background art is nice too. First half of the episode was okay, but the rest of it with the mock battle was awesome. The club members looked really cool :D Yura is lucky to have been found by them, seems like a fun club to be in.


^ Same.

I've never seen a anime with Airsoft guns as the main plot. This will be interesting for me. I loved the art and the mock battle was awesome. :D i'll look forward to the next episode. ^^

Very average. Brown haired girl's seiyuu is really unfitting and it's starting to get annoying. Only MC is cute. Despite cute girls doing cute things being one of my favorite genres, this one is on the verge of dropping.

Well that was cool.

I forgot this was an anime about airsofting before I downloaded it so I completely thought it was going to be some fluffy fuwa fuwa anime about eating cake and drinking tea.

And Sawashiro Miyuki is voicing Sonora, which is awesome. And it's a couple days early but happy 18th birthday to Sonora.

I mainly give this one a chance because it's animated by Gainax; their facial expressions are always recognizable and I find them pleasant to look at. The jazzy background music is an interesting choice, it has a really good feel to it.
