5.0 out of 5 stars A series that grabs the attention and doesn't let go., 31 Jul 2006

By	Paprika (England) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Gunslinger Girl: v. 2 (Paperback)

A truly excellent series. The manga and anime are suitably dark, not through stereotypical emotive charas or "pervasive evil forces" but by the simple day to day lives of child assassins and how they each cope with the way the world is set for them. From Rico, the subservient tool to Triella the rebel without a cause the characters are both normal and terrifying - often at the same time.

If you're a big fan of "girls with guns" anime then there is a lot more emphasis on character interaction than you'll be used to.

Be warned however ! ADV in their infinite wisdom have shelved the manga at volume 3. This is despite Aida having just released volume 7 in Japan. If you're pidgeon Japanese can handle it (or you just want to see more of what goes on) then buy them, they're well worth it. Highlights include Triella's toughest fight, how she came to be in the unit and an all new girl added to the roster.

We can but pray MVM wangle the manga translation right ^_^

3.0 out of 5 stars Gunslinger Girl (Full Series Review), 17 May 2006

By	I. Thackrah "Book Film TV Music Reviewer" (England) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Gunslinger Girl: v. 2 (Paperback)

In modern day Italy, Gunslinger Girl, looks into the antics of the Social Welfare Agency. Their mission is to rehabilitate human lives but secretly they act as a counter terrorism and counter intelligence unit. The SWA chooses a girl in a near death condition and through a series of experiments, where her body is fitted with cybernetic parts and her memories removed, create the perfect government-commissioned assassin. These new parts and a compliance inducing drug heighten her perceptions and allow her to anticipate danger, but extensive use strains the girls mental and physical endurance shortening the girl's long-term memory, as well as her life span.

A male agent is assigned to the girl as a handler. The 'Fratello' trains, conditions and develops the girl. Each girl is treated individually but the end result is a deadly assassin with undying loyalty to their handler. The Gunslinger story focuses mainly on the relationships between the girls and the handlers, the parody between child and assassin makes for interesting personal and emotional conflicts. Fans of the series describe it as a controversial and emotionally depressing story that takes a deep look at human nature, and even though the girls have no past memories, the girls still have a soul and humanity.

The manga published in English is currently composed of ?three?(17/06/06) volumes although it is unknown whether or not they will continue to translate the series. The corresponding amine is currently doing very well and I would recommend starting there. But, these volumes would, if the future of the series was secure, make for an interesting read.

5.0 out of 5 stars This series gets better and better, 29 April 2005

By	"gaming_goddess" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Gunslinger Girl: v. 2 (Paperback)

This book is even better with then the first as we are introduced to new characters and new situations that pull you deeper into the lives of the girls.

For those of you who havn't read the first book then you should but even if you pick this one up first you won't be lost there is plenty of explination as to whats going on.

With more action and more excitment gundlinger girls vol.2 is a must have
