According to www.anidb.net it is going to be 13 episodes only unfortunately...
Oh....
Hey just saw my officer watchign this AOne fansub as well on his laptop.
Tried d/ling it from the torrents section and it said there were 90 d/ls and 16 seeds but i couldn't get crap!
sad... will be trying again later...
Anyway i find it an extremely good anime... dark and thoughtful at the same time... and theres action included every now and then too (11-16 year old gals firing sniper rifles, steyrs, FNP90's what more could a guy ask for!?)
yeah its okay if you like semiandroid girls going around shooting people
R.I.P Captain America.
Gunslinger Girl is definitely an awesome anime. It seemed like the releases didn't exactly come once a week, and were more unorderly -- so I'm going to try to download all the episodes again so that I can watch them all at once for a better understanding of things.
It was a really great anime, though, that's for sure. A lot of the stories, especially near to the end of the series were incredibly sad. The whole basis to the thing was, actually. Forcing little girls to become assassins, and everything.
I wish it would have focused a little more on Henrietta, though. I realize that her story was told well, and we got the point across of how she feels being used the way they are - so she did hert part. I just would have liked to see even a little more interaction from her. Oh well, though.
I'm going through it right now. its very very sad. I gotta say though Henrietta is adorable. I feel like giving her a hug everytime I see her and then she busts out a rifle and kills a few dozen people. Not sure where its going a a series though. I'm at ep 10 and so far no real plot:/
Good anime though. Definetly well animated and drawn too.
well you wont find a real plot (one that i was hoping for the whole series)... but when the series finishes you will find a theme/moral plot if you might call it that which i liked... but left me somewhat unsatisfied becuase i really liked the series and wanted more and more...
Couldn't agree more with you. The series was really good, but only 13 episodes make it look like we missed a lot of action.Originally posted by: Budweineken

the sieries wasn't supposed to be an action series, persay, though the action sequences were pretty cool.
it's more focused on the girls and whether they were still human, even though they're basically cyborgs and killing machines.
I think the theme was well executed, but the plot integration was a tad lacking.
It is a great show, but a bit slow paced in the beginning, when ep2 is half the same of ep1. The manga version is much faster; for example, Elsa took part in ep9 and ep10 but she appeared as early as volume1 in manga.
BTW I'm familiar with most type of firearms and was able to identify most guns (SR, AR, and pistols) in the series. However I'm no good at shotguns, so can anyone identify the shotgun Triela used in ep1 (with bayonet!) and the assult rifle Elsa used in ep9? The AR Elsa used has H&K-styled rear sight but with Galil-styled magazine catch. The rectangular trigger guard is strange, too.
Good series.
Just finished it a few minutes ago. Last ep was sad.
Does anyone know if it will be continued. Henrietta and Jose's story definitely could go a lot farther. Jose's a good brother and I thought it sucked how they ended it with him bailing out on her for the meteor shower. Really kinda leaves you confused:/
Oh shit! I didn't realize that it was it. I've been sitting here for weeks waiting for #14 [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] Woops.
I guess that was a good ending. I didn't treat it as such so I'll have to go back and watch it. It was pretty good. Hope there is more later maybe.
Seeing you were expecting more episodes, I know you must feef disappointed it only ended with 13 episodesOriginally posted by: G-Daddy

Good News, it got nice art and nice music.
Just finished watching this series and all i have to say is zomgoggen! It's been a while since I've enjoyed a series this much. It's was great!
After watching it though i kinda feel they could have given it a better title like fratello or something because gunslinger girl kinda makes it feel kinda cheap and tacky, like a fan service show or something.
Anyway if anyone is bored and wants a good series to binge on then they should pick this one up, it really left a good impression on me.
it is always the darkest before the dawn...
