Alright lets try this! One chapter everyday until we die.>The Social Welfare agency, a government sponsored corporation is in the business for saving orphaned or abandoned children who are terminally ill or injured beyond the point of saving.>Using cybernetic implants, the Agency uses a process called 'conditioning' to turn orphaned children into emotionless killing machines with hardly any memories, no human comfort and no free will.>Follow the life of Henrietta, a girl who barely survived a brutal attack that killed her family and who was saved and repaired by the Social Welfare Agency. Despite her conditioning and programming, Henrietta still has the heart of a young girl. She has not completely forgotten how to love, yet the very emotion is contrary to her training and programming. Can the Gunslinger Girl survive?Chapter 1 and 2desuarchive.org/a/thread/289333654Chapter 3desuarchive.org/a/thread/289371837Chapter 4desuarchive.org/a/thread/289393082Chapter 5 to 11desuarchive.org/a/thread/289532268Chapter 6 to 15>>289683304
>>289788241
Angelica is so cute, I hope her mission goes well
I assume she feels weird without a weapon in her hands
Government doing shady stuff to terrorists. So they are all shades of grey
So they broke or something?
Poor girl is an addict!
Love how cute and creepy they can be
So cool!
Cute and creepy!The welfare agency truly look like the bad guys compared with the terrorists.
Chapter 16 end!
>>289788806>>289788984Rico is so cool>>289789326Thanks OP
>>289789379Glad you enjoyed, anon! And yeah Rico is quite precise when killing
bump for readers!
>>289790578Thank you anon!
This manga is just suffering.
>>289790891It's starting to get more plot focused now with the terrorist group.
I can't wait for the terrorists to achieve something
>>289791950yeah fuck Israel
>>289791970Will more countries appear in this manga?
How badly was she hurt?
Any reason why they changed the style of drawing in the manga and anime? I remember buying the three first volumes literally 20 fucking years ago and a few years later got back into it and the characters looked so fucking different, never mind the second season of the anime.
>>289792577It’s mostly set in Italy. Someone travels briefly to Germany by the end, and some other random places are mentioned but it’s almost completely Italy. Unless you mean Padania?
>>289789141Rico is the coolest honestly, I wish it was more focused on her. Every chapter and scene she’s in she’s killing it.
>>289794015the guy who drew the first chapter spent 10 years improving his artwork before he drew the final chapter
>>289794492Now that's dedication!>>289794091Italy is perfect
>>289788655cute stuff
>>289789141probably my favorite scene in the manga and in the anime
Shit, I've been watching to watch and read this but the anime and manga are on my other hard disk that I didn't bring with me on vacation.How many chapters does this have? Will the threads last another 3 weeks?
Funny how we are in "Season 2" territory and nobody posts pics from it because it's shit
Thanks for the dump, OP!
>>289788226Did Angie remember the basics of CQC
>>289797198Yes probably, it has 7 chapters afaik
>>289797558Glad you enjoyed, anon!
>>289788806>MG3kino
>>289798631Rico got the best firepower
>>289796578are you for real? what do you like about it?
>>289788027What gun is Henrietta holding here?
>>289800080SIG SG 550
>>289800080Sig SG 550
>>289788806
>>289800080SIG 551 carbine.
>>289800196Perfect picture. We truly need more cute girls committing war crimes manga
>>289788027Are these guys any dangerous?
>>289800267hehe
>>289801393Read Youjo Senki, its like gunslinger girl
>>289800196Girls and guns is the best genre
>>289803425Agreed, but it needs a good story
>>289788655rico is cute
>>289788513She's starting to annoy me.
>>289803060Among girl + guns animanga, I don't think there's any pair more unlike than those two.
>>289805788To be fair, friends don't let friends carry exploves without letting them know.
>>289805917kek
>>289790882cute
Thank you for dumping OP. Guess I'll experience the pain again.
>>289789141Rico best girl. Even when she's asked to keep her kill count down, so the scrubs can get some she can't help being the mvp.
>>289788031yoooo vinny
>>289797716>Did Angie rememberno
>>289805788priscilla is a cute
>>289805788Priscilla is the best.It would have been nice if she (and the other agency support crew members) showed up more often doing little things in the background.
Time for another chapter!
>>289812824kek that felt too real
kek Henrietta must have gone off. I thought she would start murdering
Sherlock?
How many terrorists exist in Italy?
She sure loves Jose
>>289813248don't know if there are any politically motivated ones, but there are still active mafia and gang groups, not too long ago an armored truck got held up and blown open on a highway
it's been 20 years and they still haven't started building the bridge
Chapter end!
And some translator terms
>>289814177And she never knew she almost killed him
The terrorists sure act human in this manga.
>>289814001what a kick
>>289815735Putting those cybernetic limbs to work!
>>289814242>2016it's 2026 and they still trying to start building it, there will never be a better corruption scheme before or after
>>289814206Also the end of Volume 3! We get to start Volume 4 with a Claes chapter. Very comfy.
>>289817153>it's 2026 and they still trying to start building it, there will never be a better corruption scheme before or afterSo basically you're telling us that ... the terrorists are right?
>>289815459Yes. Terrorists tend to be human. They even often have relatable human motivations and backgrounds. >>289817866Nah, the terrorists hate the bridge because they hate the idea of southern Italy buying nice things with "their" tax money and getting no benefit from it themselves. IRL, the bridge is a legitimate engineering challenge bordering on impossible (with current technology), however, which makes it an easy target for contractor corruption and a huge money sink even under ideal conditions.
>>289818063So is it a ponzi scheme?
>>289819354Basically a money funnel
>>289817153kek how time flies
If I hate Terroni, does that make me a Padanian?
>>289821499heh, meanwhile the Kerch Strait Bridge was built in 3 years and has been blown up since.
>>289822154Was it due to Padania?
How capable is Henrietta in combat?
>>289814301Thank you for posting.
>>289822029Honorary.
>>289824201Glad you enjoyed, anon!
Moments before disaster
>>289825606A summary of today's chapter
>>289826421Rico did NOTHING wrong!
>>289825492
>>289814206Thanks again!
>>289818063They seem to care more about the people than the shady government agency turning orphan little girls into murder cyborgs
How fast are the cyborg girls? Also do they have a specific name? It feels weird to call them the cyborgs
>>289829676They are fast but not unrealistic level of fast
>>289830366But how fast is that?
>>289810278: (
>>289788241>>289788277BUSTEDI wonder if Olga still reports to Moscow...
>>289788555>>289788578s-strong
>>289788679>can you let me kill some of the bad guys tomorrowthe way she asks that is heartbreaking on every level
>>289812500Most unrealistic part about this Italian government funds could never accomplish this, not in a million years
>>289812940DUMB Henrietta
>>289813326>Henrietta was really nervous to play in front of her>But gets upset and yells at her when she says something slight about Jose
bump for late readers
>>289828229Would Bocchi make a good cyborg assassin?
>>289833095Well she is, in fact, a ninja master with the most powerful student in the world.
>>289823451She sprays and prays a lot. Jose trained her that way.
>>289812848>"do you know where triela is?"I miss Triela too. she's literally the covergirl for this volume. where is she? this is supposed to be her time. can't Yu give us at least a panel to show us how she's doing?
>>289813857lol Jose does the palm strike to the chin that Franca told Pinocchio about
I don't think Padania is wrong. Italian reunification with Naples was a mistake.
>>289813642I knew it.
>>289801393>>289803060>Read Youjo SenkiTanya it's NOT a war criminal.>>289803425>>289803695You're going to love Jormungand.
>>289836771>JormungandHadn't heard of that one, thank you anon. Will check it out
>>289788027>hebes with gunsI love
>>289838650It's truly the best combination
>>289788027ty op
>>289839721Glad you enjoyed, anon!
She is back!
>>289840234She is the best!
>>289841234Henrietta is super cute. Reminds me of Natalie Portman in the Professional
>>289841234neatand since this is drawn by the mangaka, the idolmaster stats are legit
>>289845942I had no idea
Are girls legally allowed to drink in Italy?
>>289848159Yes yes they are
I want a government issued cyborg girl!
do you want to hear a secret?Claes has always been my least favourite>>289837680its funny, Ode to Joy was sung as my church during Mass today
>>289837766WOKE Claes
Claes is such a cutie. I want to dote on her and pat her head
>>289838488>shooting glassesvery dorky on Henriettabut I guess that would be the most important piece of protective equipment for them
>>289840234Triela has returneded!
>>289851075I think they may be trying to compensate for the limitations they detected in their bodies.
>>289852001It doesn't stop them from looking dorky as all hell
>>289852083Should have integrated it into their eyes
>>289853336I don't think it'd be easy to protect the eyes even in cyborgs, anon
>>289837766So we finally see some other cyborgs in the background at least. Though I don't think we ever see them in action.
>>289837513You're welcome
>>289855099She should be a gunslinger girl too. So strong looking
>>289855676I thought she was too old for this thread?
>>289855099How would Jonah interact with the Gunslinger girl
>>289855855Would probably massacre them
>>289855099>Her name is Coco>She is loco
>>289857068Would she be best friends with Rico?
>>289838615Thank you for posting, OP!
>>289859091Glad you enjoyed, anon! The plot thickens
Rico is probably the best cyborg. Enjoys her job, doesn't question her handlers, lives life to the fullest and is effective at it.
>>289855099Sex
>>289838615Thanks, OP.
>>289836771Maybe I'm too jaded, but I thought jormungand was kinda bad (except for /ss/ gods). Certainly worse than GG.
>>289837959uoh
Alright time for another chapter!
Chapter 19 "Mimi Machiavelli"So it seems Triela took it personal
A maiden in love!
Looks tasty!
So I understand where the Machiavelli comes from, but she truly fucked up
Rico to the rescue once again!
>>289869155>>289869203The Kraut instinctively fears the trenchgun.
>>289869419she's cute
>>289870200Agreed, a cute tomboyish machiavellian girlfriend
>>289869871>good pickpocketeryea that's a good representation of a neapolitan
Do you think Hilshire tapped on Triela's tsundere ass? He even had her eggs extracted, somehow.
>Triela chapter>Feel the painThe wound hasn't healed...
>>289870134Grazie, Signore OP. Never got around to reading this, saw the previous thread and read through the archive to catch up. Will be following along. Triela is too cute, hope she better come out of all this unharmed.
>>289871211Hope you enjoy, anon! It's a very good manga with a really fun story.
>>289868252>what prompted your calli am stealing that one
>>289870134Thanks, OP.
>>289872860Glad you enjoyed, anon!
>>289871211Triela sure loves her shotguns
>>289869931Extremely funny page
>>289875734Because of Rico?
What would Triela be like as a girlfriend?
>>289857068I SAY OH NO
Sequel when?
>>289869203Why do random Carabinieri have access to the kids? Isn't this a huge intel leak? Also LMAO at Hilshire driving a fucking Merc station wagon while Jose drives around in a Porsche
>>289869396Why does Jose get to have a Porsche and his older brother has to drive a beater?
>>289871039Yes.Source: trust me
>>289869532>Napoli girl>del Piero JUVE shirtYeah, good thing she has a protection detail. That should get her lynched in Napoli. In the anime it was a Maradroga Napoli shirt like it should be. Then again, del Piero would be back then a current player.
>>289877853Was that a politically incorrect opinion to have back then?
>>289878292More like why would a Terroni born and raised follow a fucking Turin (Padanian) team.
>>289878375That is a good question, maybe she thinks some of their ideas make sense? Or is she just contrarian
Keiichi Sigsawa sensei
>>289878375NTA, but most of the south supports gobbi (juventus), ti's just Napoli that doesn't. So, you are mostly correct
>>289877626Damn! She's gonna be wrecked
>>289868278fucking kekYeah Hilschire should go home to Germany with Triela in tow
>>289868722POUTY Triela
>>289869155not el trencho....
>>289869203Minor spoiler that damn look on Hilschire's face ;_;
>>289869380Augustus-sama...
>>289869419MimimimimimimimiBig spoiler This is in retrospect a very fucked up meeting
>>289857430>>289875945yes
>>289869549>What position doe she playkekits nice that Triela is making a non-cyborg friend
>>289869581I had a 2011 bottle once, it was a seven year vintage at the time which is overdue for riservas but undercooked for most chiantiIt was just okay, kind of tannin-y
>>289869885Triela and Hilschire are looking more and more incompetent
>>289869979Based, good for you Triela
>>289870134Thanks OP>>289870824All my Italian homies (Northerners and Southerners) HATE Neapolitans
>>289881072She is simply the best!
>>289877480They're special forces ... irc, they spar with the cyborgs or triela at least.
>>289870134Thank you for posting.
>>289882509sparring with a sweaty triela and having her put me in a headlock... uoh...
bump for readers
>>289871193It never will.
>>289885764Thanks for the support, anon!
>>289869909>>289869931>>289869965An advanced tactic for capturing oji-sans trained to resist offers of free beer and classic rock CDs. Those poor men were under no illusion of what those little girls would do with vulnerable adult males.
>>289870134Thanks OP
>>289869203Technically you can slamfire (rack the slide with the trigger down to cycle and immediately fire the next round) on the trench gun to achieve higher rates of fire at the cost of being harder to control, but in theory a cyborg like Triela could handle it.
>>289877626>Triela in a turtleneckSEX
>>289869380she's got bears from different papaswhat a slut
>>289869442summer priscilla a cute
Rico chapter begins!Chapter 20: Tosca
Who is the girl? Doesn't look like Henrietta
>>289894248>citizens no longer bat an eye at shootingskek so grim
>>289894090Who covers these dress expenses? The agency or Jean and Jose out of pocket? This series so far makes Triela and HIlshire look like poorfags compared to the other fratello.
Rico seems really well suited to the job
Cute!
Girls sure appreciate art
Foreshadowing?
Damn!
>>289895228daijobu?
>>289894615Glownigger money should be pretty good, even for shitalians
>>289895318Jean is greedy, couldn't even pay for the full dress for Rico.
>>289857068>>289876832>T-T-T-TTTime to atack!!https://youtu.be/8okzVnShqMw
>>289895256Just a pain in the neck
Overall the manga has been more centered around Triela and Rico while the Henrietta and Jose pair are on vacation. Why?
>>289894090>elbow glovesjean has taste
>>289788027There are still people who read this manga? GSG is older than most anons itt I bet. Shame the author rushed the ending and also he quit on being an author.
>>289894940The aria from Tosca in question if anyone was curious.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRPDulYxIAc
>>289894615>>289895318A good amount of Jean and Jose's apparent wealth comes from their family. The Porsche and Mercedes, for example, were likely their daily drivers before the Agency. The Croce brothers were bluebloods from the start.
>>289897219>There are still people who read this manga? It remains as one of the best manga ever written. Besides cute girls with guns is a staple of good stories.>GSG is older than most anons itt I bet. Shame the author rushed the ending and also he quit on being an author.
>>289897219>Shame the author rushed the ending and also he quit on being an author.>Things that never happened.
>>289895501Thanks for the chapter Signore OP.Got the impression that Triela is the most mature of the girls, almost like a leader. But is Rico top dog when it comes to combat? Would make sense with her being pared to Jean.>>289894090>>289895275>Elbow gloves for the loli.Jean has good taste, a true patrician.
>>289899236>Jean has good taste, a true patricianAgreed, Jean may be the best handler
>>289894269"This scent... old enough to be my father but young enough to be my brother, Signore. Oh and the scent explosives, I guess."
>>289894470>haven't been home in ten daysImagine the smell.
>>289894234this is the first chapter properly introducing beatrice but she appeared in the background a couple times already
>>289901832I hope we get her backstory soon
>>289900794Poor girl with daddy issues
>>289902291Don't hold your breath, it never shows up. Beace is the most fleshed out of the three background gen 1s, but we never get her circumstances, even after her explosive moment in volume 11. Despite that, her handler is one of my favorites. Real wiseguy.
>>289899236Yeah I'd say rico is the strongest (of the characters introduced so far)but power levels aren't really a focus of the manga
>>289788027Henrietta a best, a best!
>>289899236Triela is technically the oldest of the main girls until Petra joins, so she becomes their de facto leader/big sister of sorts.
>>289900879Most if not all of the handlers have rooms at the compound where they stay, and there's a cafeteria. It's not a far leap to assume the staff at least has access to a sleeping room and showers.
>>289907290Do any of the handlers ever slept with the cyborgs? Would they be allowed?
>>289908231Just Alesandro.
>>289895501Thank you for posting.
>>289908767Was he the first one to fuck her or did he whore her out to gather intel
>>289909851Glad you enjoyed anon! Getting really curious about the spoiler texts but trying to avoid it for now.
>>289909950Actually, Alesandro has trauma about that since he himself was forced to whore himself out to gather intel during his Section 1 days, by HIS hot, redhead, mommy dommy, femme fatale former handler, so he doesn't make Petra do that.
I can't wait for next chapter!
>>289910471Your discipline must be like cold steel.
>>289895501Thanks signore.
>>289895501Grazie, OP.
>>289894222>>289894234bice love
>>289895138Bice is extremely uninmpressed.
>>289897219>rushed the ending Wrong.>he quit on being an author.Wrong.
Will start in a bit the chapter, sadly got to run an errand for life. Here is first page, will absolutely do it today.As a matter of fact, will start now, hope to get as many as possible
End of chapter! Luckily managed to finish it before the time was upHope you enjoy!
>>289920205Thanks for dumping.
>>289919754Rico with the MG3 is always pure kino.
>>289921108Glad you enjoyed, anon! Finally about done with my work
>>289920124>Jose has picked up his tea cupWhat a cold, pretentious rat. He should try his luck in politics.
>>289919408Is that...Jose?
>>289919408Do Italians actually treat siblings like this or is there a hint of incest in this?
>>289924596I mean italians are some of the few europeans who are fiery and passionate, and who kiss as a greeting. So yeah, it is common unlike the coldness that characterize the UK for example.
>>289924596>Headpat and side-hug>IncestYou're reaching. If anyone's the siscon, it's Jean.
>>289924596>hintYou got your incest goggles strapped too tight. The headpat might be a little strange (seems more like a japanese anime/manga thing, but maybe Italians do that), but she's just side hugging her older brother and that's not weird for most cultures.
>>289920205It's over for Jean, she's an addict now. Bitch is going to be pulling that "Love me or die" shit every other day at this rate.
>>289919754The little handle on the gun or whatever it is looks like her mouth thereCombined with the backwards cap that's a really funny expression
>>289925686lol, I'm so familiar with the silhouette of the MG3/MG42 I didn't even notice the top cover latch looks like a mouth if you squint. Very "Haha, die trash" look.
>>289925506Agreed, could it ruin her life?
>>289920205>treats 'etta exactly like he would his sisterThis is his Kirei moment where he realizes that he doesn't care about anyone on a personal level, and all he interactions hence become grounded in emotional manipulation. Isn't it? ;_;
>>289928565No, it's a fair bit more complicated than that I think. I'd say he takes the advice he gets in this volume to heart, he fakes his affection to Henrietta so well that he fools himself, and it's not until volume 12 where Henrietta is nearing the end of her addiction The Drug and she can't remember any specifics of that affection that he gives up on the illusion.
>>289919564does this mean they cant produce estrogen on their own because of the drugs or do they just control her hormones for extra manipulation?
>>289928805She's had a hysterectomy. She's got no ovaries. Whether this is due to cyberization or the physical trauma from her origin story isn't really clear, but the point is she's got no ovaries, so she'd need estrogen supplementation anyway.
>>289928565Is it that bad? I mean he can't get his sister back, but he can give a broken girl another chance at life!
>>289929910A life where she is brainwashed to one-sidedly love an adult man who is using her as a surrogate for his dead little sister, is under constant pressure to extrajudicially murder political enemies of the state, and in the best case doomed to die of complications related to medically induced Alzheimer's within a few years!
>>289930008Yeah and even then, it's better than what her life would be without. A limbless rape victim that would probably die from hemorrhage or a vegetable unable to work or do anything. Her fate is quite tragic all things considered
I want a government issued gunslinger girl!
>>289931477Do you like pasta?
>>289931597As a matter of fact...yeah?
>>289930422Not true. If she was properly cared for and survived the next few years, she'd eventually be provided the fruits of the cyborg program. She'd get high quality cybernetics to replace her two missing limbs, and advanced psychiatric care to bury the trauma. She'd be 12 at the oldest, plenty young to rehabilitate and grow into a healthy young woman. Sure, Henrietta herself might have contributed to those results, but if it wasn't her, it'd be someone else. Padania is creating plenty of victims after all.
>>289894090>la repubblicaso he is a leftie
>>289920205thanks op
>>289919479No fun allowed.>>289920146I'd also like to spend my time playing with little girls...
>>289932034I like how Henrietta immediately followed and started walking on the curb in an effort to get Jose to pay attention and touch her the same way.
>>289932571Agreed, she is so in love its cute
>>289934727Badass Henrietta!
I honestly really love how the iconic shot of Henrietta with the P90 is her firing from an off-hand position due to circumstance of the moment she's in, and then when Madhouse animated the reload after the mag dump, it was flawless manipulation where she quickly swapped to more conventional handling.
>>289936859Agreed, she simply looks badass when dressed like that
Next chapter when?
>>289920205Grazie, signor OP.
