Gunslinger Girl Complete Collection


Gunslinger Girl Complete Collection

Despite its girls-with-guns storyline and doe-eyedcharacters dressed in schoolgirl outfits, the action anime series GUNSLINGERGIRL eschews its genre's typically breezy comedy style for a dark and broodingexploration of female childhood. Set in Italy, the series centers on a littlegirl named Henrietta, who is taken in by a seemingly benevolent social welfareagency after her entire family is murdered in a massacre. But the organizationis really a front for a secret government program that adopts terminally ill ororphaned girls, erases their memories, and endows them with implanted cyberneticdevices that transform them into perfectly conscience-free assassins. As part ofthe reconditioning process, the girls are partnered with older male agents whonot only provide them with professional instruction but act as their surrogateolder brothers. Moody, stylish, and violent, the series chronicles Henrietta'straining with her partner Jose with equal parts high-octane action sequences andpoignant character studies of the pair's evolving relationship. The anime seriesis presented in its entirety with this collection of episodes.#
