Eh...Gunslinger girls 2...nice XD

Hahaha, as I said in Megatokyo forums, I do hope they will include the story of Petrushka, the Russian bionic operator who appeared in manga vol 6 and heavily featured in subsequent 2 volumes.

Wolfx, I just realized you in Megatokyo Forums too. Hahahah

yeap. Not sure that stormy was u.

i wonder if im happy or not, i doesnt really like the anime that much, but i prefer reading it more.

so, they goin to cover another 2 volume from the manga in this 2nd season?

oh man, this is so nice ~ Henrietta ~~~~~ im ready to die of your FN-P90 ... ~~~

Aiya slow liao. But yea great news. <3 GSG and its ost.

So this will be animated up to which volume?
since the anime animated only the first 2, they might animate this up to 4 and release a third season after this

IIRC, the 1st season animated from volumes 1 - 3. Season 2...who knows...maybe 26 eps so more volumes?

So far I couldn't find any difference between the manga and anime except the story that involved the already dead frattello ......forgot their names which wasn't included in the anime.


So didn't find the animation to be any problem. Delgados ftw!

there arent any problem witht the anime, but i still prefer reading than watchin the same story of it. (unless they hire really good animation studio n make a top notch, shot on 1 animation in it) well, most of the reason why i dun really watch wat i had read. outcome if the story is the same is, it wont get any better than the manga unless the manga is really bad (in term of drawing).
and i watch the anime 1st before i read it. so cant help it bout watchin part.

Hmmm....you may be right. Maybe the timing was different. In the manga it was somewhere halfway but in the anime its towards the end. Gah....this very long ago. Might be my mistake. I read the manga a few months after the anime after all and was making some comparisons at that time.

Maybe they'll do the time jump ^^

Shit...can't remember which it was.

I'm sure it's included in the image album
Tracks
"La ragazza col fucile" - Josefa
"Il fratello" - Revo (instrumental)
"Lui si chiama..." - Yuuka Nanri (Henrietta)
"La principessa del regno del sole" - Kanako Mitsuhashi (Rico)
"Biancaneve bruno" - Eri Sendai (Triela)
"Pinocchio" - Revo (instrumental)
"Claes tranquillo" - Ami Koshimizu (Claes)
"La principessa del regno della pasta" - Hitomi Terakado (Angelica)
"Io mi chiamo..." - Mamiko Noto (Elsa)
"La ragazza" - Revo (instrumental)
"La ragazza col fucile e poca felicit�" - Josefa

Manga wise I read up to Vol 8, which talks about Petrushka, 2nd generation bionic operator from Russia who is completely rebuilt from scratch, even her face.

I think if it is 13 eps anime, it will at least resolve the fight between bomber couple and 2nd Section, with emphasis on Triela who will encounter a very skillful Padania assassin, Pinocchio. That is vol 3-5 of the manga.

Sad though if happens, since I do want to see Petrushka.



Petrushka first appearence

2nd appearence, teamed up with Claes who can pass as an young adult in one of the mission

More story of Petrushka, she finally used her assigned weapon, Spectre SMG

I hope they can finish making season 2 by next year. Really looking forward to this one.

You're not talking about Symphony No. 9 by Beethoven rite?

^- i think he is talking about that

But that's not a piano piece.

^- yea lol ... its some song . sung in dunno wat language.. and i also finding that ...

Are they older in the new season?

Physically or Mentally?

yippie... season 2 is coming
~pacchi pacchi pacchi~
the ED is 02 DOPO IL SOGNO ~夢のあとに~
it sounds like italian
the last episode's ED is beethoven symphony no.9

Mentally of course. They still qualify for tentacle rape physically. Unless of course, Henrietta suddenly sprouts D-cup breasts and slaps Jose silly every two episodes.

I wonder how Hanrietta sprouts D-cup.

Cybernetic Augmentations.

Well, the Section 2 girls have short life expectancy, so I don't think she will have time to have breast.

Short life can still be until 25-30.

So why not?

Anyway Claes is my favourite of the girls. Least emo of the lot.

Darqfyre> lol

Wolfx>

I only read till vol 3. Even if it was somewhere between vol 1- vol 3 i can't remember. hahaha.

Iriya Saaya has silicone implants.

*kills aoshi*

LIES!

I have first hand experience that proves she's el naturale.

Don't be too happy guys. They might not be a sequel after all.

^
that's wat happen if u watched fansub n doesnt buy original DVDs. there goes the 2nd season.

Kitaaaaa......nai?



*crouches facing a corner and draws imaginary circles on the ground with finger*

*jumps around wolfx muttering "Nyoro~n"*

Confirmed!!! w00ts!!

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2007-...ially-announced

Ah excellent! One of my top 5 anime of all time is having a sequel! Wohoo!

wow, they finally collected the fund raised by /a/

Can't wait to see Petroshka (whatshername) the ballerina to be animated.

how many season planned? if 1, we dun really have the chance seein her at all.

I wonder if they get extra body implants in the second season.

Like 4 breasts and they all shoot bullets?

No no no...be a bit more realistic.

Well hopefully its a 26 episode season.

We can hope but I suspected that it will be another 12 ep arrangement.

12, I hope it follows the manga and not their own story.

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2007-...h-pinocchio-arc

Confirmed by Yu Aida to follow the pinnochio arc. Not sure if its JUST the pinnochio arc though

pinochio arc is long, covered around 2 vol iirc.

For better or worse, there's gonna be a whole new cast for season 2.

Looks like they going for Pinnochio arc and end it like Vol 5. I don't think the story of Petrushka will be in the 2nd anime.

Loli with guns...
I prefer maid with guns...

Stop watching Black Lagoon and start watching some worthwhile loli-shooting-guns anime

Futakoi Alternative!

henrietta is wielding my fav weapon, the P-90...
Dont remember which girl died in first season...

Angelica dies in first season.

Why she still on the 2008 character list...

Angelica's fate in the end of Season One is actually ambiguous at best. Guess she is in again.

Looking forward to the show.

Is the arc covered the one where all the girls grew up? That would be good too.

I thought they won't live long due to the conditioning? They got grow up meh?

I thought one of the doctor told jose they wont live long...
Jose x henrietta?

No the story up to vol 5 is all about resolving the story of Franco and Franca, the bomber pair expert working for Padania Republican terrorist and enigmatic but deadly assassin, Pinocchio.

Pinocchio is dead right if i'm not mistaken...

in book 5 but not in anime. he has yet to appear

Angelica is dead??

After vol 8, Angelica was given posthumous star on the wall in Section 2 HQ, after she sacrificed herself to save her handler from massive IED.

She died with her beloved dog and her grief stricken handler at her deathbed in one of the most emotional scene of the manga.

This post has been edited by Stormy001_M1A2: Nov 14 2007, 04:56 PM

Oh, I thought she died on the bed on last ep.

Didn't read the manga thou....

then after much suffering and talking,

ARGH! BLOODY *@(&!(&@! SPOILER TAGS PLZ!!!

i like the anime OST. the songs so nice

Awe man I am kinda looking forward towards the girl grown up. But yea in the manga I heard there's a time jump somewhere and the girls all grow up, so no more loli.

Aww feck Stormy, put it in a spoiler tag.

and now all the pics are gone

no loli.....

They did not grow up, there is no time jump.

Rather, there is new 2nd generation of bionic operators who is in late teen to young adult females after the Padania Republican terrorist grown wise to Section 2's tactic of using assassin child girls hence the success rate is lower lately.

Petrushka the red haired ex ballerina who first appeared in Vol 6, is the first of 2nd generation bionic operator who is suffused with new technology. Her body was completely replaced, from her hair (she is used to be a blonde) to her toe.

In Chapter 49 I think, you gotta to see the entire new group of 2nd generation girls who were like late teens or young adults when they were discussing on why Petrushka looked so happy scene.



However looking the plan, the 2nd season anime will not reach this scene or Angelica's heroic but painful death. When Petrushka or Petra come in the story, it is like a new paradigm as subsequent Vol 7 and 8 devoted entirely talking about her.

What is noticeable is after pivotal vol 5, the terrorist is getting more cunning and smarter fighting the Section 2. So the organization adapt quickly, using the new girls to complement the original crew that we seen in the anime. Of course too, the old crew have a new member that the readers seen in Vol 4, Beatrice . So far the mangaka has yet shown much of Beatrice, she seems to be taciturn bionic operator with penchant for Micro Uzi.

Chapter 50 is Triela's fanservice galore and her melancholy of being a bionic operator.

Wooo when will have the anime.
Can't wait for it.
Like it so much. Story is great.

Damn, spoilerz....
Oh, so the manga is still ongoing huh?

Yeap, I have been following it and Black Lagoon. Black Lagoon current story is Roberta's personal revenge. Pretty awesome to see the Latino maid going back to the Hound persona that she is well known for.

The Japanese and Korean Gunslinger fans are annoyed with new, non loli bionic operators coming to prominence but hey, I welcome the change as it make sense to me. If they keep relying on child girls, the terrorist will know the pattern pretty fast.

Plus Petrushka is a very interesting girl to begin with.

bro thanks for this info. Gladly it was the first since i heard it from Mr Czero here

Vol 6.



Vol 7



Vol 8

This are volumes after 5. If your Japanese is good enough, Isetan Japanese KLCC book section do have them in stock now.

Good luck hunting.

will look foward into it. Kinokuniya the place where i always took 5 to 6 hours in it reading

Resize the images dammit. While i may load them fast, others having Sreamyx issues can't. Be a bit kinder please.

I am using Streamyx too. No problem for me.

gunslinger adult version... sound like nina of tekken to me

Another anime thread being spoiled by mangatards.

lol what's that bro???

Manga + retard. Geddit?



Oh and wolfx... just lay off. This is after all /AS/.

Go make your own manga thread. Its annoying if you spam manga spoilers on an anime that most probably will follow the manga arc.

Dude, before you breathing brimstone and fire, the 2nd season will only end at Vol 5. Notice that I did not talk about Vol 4 or 5 here. I only talked about Vol 6 and above because the anime plan already announced the cast and there is no Petrushka or her handler, Alessandro.

Think before mouthing off.

second.. its not the problem of loading... just too big to display on most screen.. even for 1440*900 (which I am using now)

Oh sure. Why not tell us how the story will end at vol XX now while you're at it since the 2nd season won't cover it.



Its still a manga spoiler dude.

Oh latest developments of Gunslinger Girl, Petrushka and her handler kissed and there is growing danger that this fratello will be too attached to each other, endangering their objectivity.

Meanwhile Triela showing symptoms of PTSD after a bruising encounter, she wore more feminine clothes and have some broodings while packing Angelica's belongings. Oh there is a shower scene that might excite a lot of loli fans.

There you go.

guys enuf of this nonsense. i think i am on stormy side this time. at least he's done one that's very good enuf. rather than speculate, why don't give the real picture of it. It's still in the form of anime. manga or anime let's just forget about it. Manga appeared before anime. So there's always has some similiarities in those 2.

bro. both my lappy and compy can read it. I oso had hard time with screamyx. just let it go la.

ok... nvm

Its nothing to do with speculation and screamyx. Its forum netiquette. But malaysians have no netiquette anyway. Zzz.
