Ended up picking this up no thanks to onee-san+littleboy and the onee-san being voiced by Shizuka Itou... of all the reasons to be.

Now I need a non-gun porn version of this.

Koko2012 :3!~

Loco Koko yo....

just watched both episode today
this is totally awesome !!!! what did koko launch in the prologue on the 1st episode b4 OP? a Nuke?
hey hangmen if i remember javelin missile launcher suppose to fly in an arc path not straight right?

that old man try to handle a P-90 single handed

Neva question anime physics!

also

>anime
>logic

pick one

FYI



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FGM-148_Javelin so direct fire is not impossible for a Javelin.

Lol

But yet somehow I agree...

oh yeah now that i remember the top of a tank has the weakest armour
so is logic to use top attack

but since they going for a car a direct attack is enough
and i'm quiet thankful they did not use RPG-7( the most popular rocket laucher used by bad guys in fiction work)
like hell they can hit them with all those car movement and RPG-7 are not very accurate

Seriously using Javelin on an unarmored vehicle is an overkill, a mounted heavy machine gun turret will do the job nicely~

both clearly did not do the job and thus it is by no means "overkill"

it should be clear that their capabilities are known and are in ways underestimated by using a mere javelin, should have probably deployed full blockades with tanks or w/e

that car is armoured!!!
to small arms fire

But then they don want to alert police *facepalm...

they cant use tanks
cuz her client is the military itself ( more like the air force division)
and the guys who chase them are from some internal minister who oppose having the upgrade fitted on their MIG-29 Fulcrum
so they can onli manage a platoon or so

mounted machine gun (50cal or better, [are there? lol]) should be able to pierce typical passenger armored cars i'd assume. at the minimal they can definitely penetrate the windows/windscreens with enough force from the sheer bullet size alone and eventually kill the passengers within.

that said, there weren't any mounted heavy machine guns deployed, and even if they did, i doubt it'd make a difference. soulja boi could just snipe the guy behind the mount anyways the way his accuracy is at.

the police already know the situation
just that "internal" minister request that the police stay out of this

alerted anyways before the incident

that humvee is able to mount the browning .50 cal
the reason they don fit it ..... i don noe
they can afford that expensive javelin not the .50cal?

Heavy machine gun ==> small arms?

Mounted turret with Heavy Machine gun are designed to blast lightly armored vehicle even humvee also will become bee hives... Unless the car is shown got some heavy armor kits attached.

we have no way for sure to know the exact capabilities of their military strength. air force division could be limited to just that and that minister dude may have access to ground forces.

either way they failed and that's that.

Added on April 19, 2012, 12:27 pmhence why i question the lack of a bigger sized armored blockade of the sort. (think police chase blockades, but for military scale/standards)

at the end of the day i will just refer back to my post earlier:

>logic

pick one

i'm just joking that u mention that car is unarmoured
but the facts is that volvo is bullet proof( i would like to say bullet resistance )
and yes it still cannot withstand a high velocity .50 cal round which i don noe why those unit choose the javelin over the gun

Because shooting at a car is too mainstream , so we go for blowing sh*t stuff up

good explanation

by using an anti-tank missile that is capable of destroying a M1 Abrams? nvm
i'll puke if they actually using RPG-7 ,really really thxful they did not use trademark bad guy rocket launcher

Added on April 19, 2012, 12:41 pmwant overkill? watch until u reached a part of how did koko deal with several rouge CIA agents
holy shit did u really need that much fire power to kill several guys?

Why didn't the enemy use a .50 cal mounted gun?

Because that would make too much sense.

And there won't be incredibly bullshit scenarios where a Javelin was evaded because of a hand grenade.

Seriously tho, a gun? I doubt they'll even manage to puncture Koko's tires if they had mounted a Gatling Gun on their Hum Vee.

In short, it's f*cking anime, I don't have to explain shit.

yah i noe is an anime
we all just rambling about how will the situation be if is in real life

>real life scenario
>anime

PICK ONE

Really, the only thing I care about is guns (no matter how exaggerrated they are) and Koko's batshit insane attitude.

Aww, dammit Jonah.

i remember that part XD
but the manga got licensed in the US so we stuck at volume 7 = =

Calm and rational.

last panel of that should be self explanatory that it is not rational

I was referring to Jonah. lawl

and i said he is not rational. and yes, i find it not reasonable to refuse a free fine ass. (or other anatomy of the female gender, whichever you prefer)

Just follow this anime recently. I think this anime is good, the content is not to heavy and not to simple. Good thing they dont focus alot on technical explanation and Koko Hekmatyar is a really interesting character. Cant wait to watch episode 3

this anime reminds me of Black Lagoon

when episode 3 release???????

usually during midweek

RAWs akready out..

Chinatsu Cannon!

SHOOP DA WHOOP

so she decide to go Commando!!!
i was comparing Koko's squad with Balalaika's henchmen
who will win huh if they fight

i kena troll by wiki episode list..lol
sana write 24 april..but not yet out..

from the preview, she seems pretty buttmad. and for a moment i had a brief boner moment with the no pan thing going on. what a waste ┐('～`；)┌

too cool = uwekk
it's like all the characters r very very kewl~

so anyone can guess why she's nopan?

If you read the manga you will know And the reason of her defeat also is related

Yep, this pretty much describes what I thought about the gunfights from eps 3 and 4.

lol..girl no wear underwear so that she can aim better.
l

...the gunfight scene is pretty weak and disappointing.
Well, at least Koko is still as awesome as ever.

yeah there is really no driving force in it
maybe this is how realistic gunfight do
cover ,shoot then cover ,shoot again

ep4 #jormungand T_T

Is it just me to find Valmet look pretty hot in Episode 3?

Probably the eye patch

Muscular women can look pretty hot.

haha like our local police

valmet muscular buffness placed perfectly within my comfort zone

It was pretty badly animated, in a sense that the animators couldn't fluidly portray the sense of desperate cat and mouse game that the gun and run scene was meant to be. Perhaps it's a case of overblowing their budget in the earlier episodes, or saving it for future episodes.

EYEPATCHTITS

Nuff' said.

Moreso especially after

Koko makes the best reaction faces.

Not even the 9faggots and their copypaste template garbage could match Koko's reactionfacecollection.zip

Koko makes awesome new faces every week.

so... the person who jonad wants to kill is Casper, koko's brother?

id say there are many candidates being way better than 9faggots, but yea koko's good enough

I want to see this chapter animated.

is it just me, or no one thought of linking this song with this animu?

Didn't read the manga, but I heard they skipped a lot of part involving the interaction between the teammates that have nothing to do with the stories, so there's a huge chances that you won't be seeing this.

> no eypatch lezb0 filler scene
I AM VERY DISAPPOINT

HAHAHAHAHA jonah has bullet in his arse...he afraid of injection not operation LOL...
