Groundless
add

One of my favorite aspects to Gunslinger Girl is the degree to which the conflict seems to be written from a good understanding of terrorism, counter-terrorism, and acts of violence in general. In terms of both why and how the factions are here and the gunfights take place Groundless is a more straightforward action vehicle, though there is also some heavy, traumatic character character drama. But I would say it is the closest manga to Gunslinger Girl in how true to reality the conflict feels in it's politics and tactics. Instead of the terrorism of the Italian Years of Lead it's an all out Spanish Civil War (in spirit), with all the complicated ethnopolitical divisions and interwar small unit tactics that implies.

Abenobashi Mahou☆Shoutengai
add

Abenobashi has a lot of the same madman Studio Gainax energy.. Check out episodes 3, 5, and 11 in particular for high octane zaniness.

Kill la Kill
add

Abenobashi is perhaps the first time the true madman energy of Hiroyuki Imaishi that you see in Kill La Kill was let off the hook. Check out episodes 3 and 12, which he directed in particular. You'll see a lot of Gainax's other work in here too.
