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 24 to 30https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/289998808/Chapter 31 to 32https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/290159804Chapter 33 to 35>>290213817Chapter 36>>290283851Chapter 37 to 39>>290311377Chapter 40 to 42>>290369678 Chapter 43>>290428851 Chapter 44>>290460161 Chapter 45 to 50>>290477433
Henrietta long time no see!
Triela chapter!
It seems Triela's not a fan
Did he also lose people?Now not sure we saw his backstory besides wanting to do good and saving Triela.
Will Willshire be able to save Triela?
>>290611918It's a side effect of the drug they're taking. Henrietta hasn't been able to taste sweet things since forever. Triela even teased her for it in the past.
Chapter end!
ichi ni san kyuu OP
>>290612395Enjoy, anon!
I missed Triela chapters
>>290611940You don't remember? Rachelle, the French doctor lady that went along, died after saving Triela.
>>290611738Our MC returns!
>>290612169Funny how Hartmann may be talking about Triela, but to an extent you could say he's talking about Jean and his lust for revenge.
>>290612011>>290612027Claude is such a chad, he's known our girl for a couple of hours at best and he's already sleeping with her. Giving her comfort and sweet dreams.
>>290614186No I thought he was referring to his previous life at Europol or a tragedy that led him to his current job like Jean's
Since when does Triela wear skirts?
>>290614684Well it's a good thing the rest of this volume goes over their backstory then. By chapter 56, we'll know exactly what Hilshire sacrificed.
>>290614684>>290615468there's no mystery there anymore. we already got that story fed to us 3x at this point. first in chapter 3 by mario bossi, then in chapter 22 when triela was getting fixed after getting pinocchio'd and more recently in chapter 36 when when that persecutor bob was flirting with hilshire.
>>290615950They still haven't gone over what happened between saving Triela and the start of the manga though. It all happened in Amsterdam, so how did they get to Italy? How did Triela end up as a short-lived murderbot on the other side of Europe after Rachelle sacrificed her life to give her a real chance?
>>290616345I hope they show some of it, or Hillshire tracking them down
>>290616662They will. That's what this arc is about.
Where is /ourgirl/?
>>290611856romantic Triela
>>290612227wow Triela's new stepmom is so wise.
>>290618010Don't worry, she'll get some focus time at the end of the volume.
>>290618701Can't wait!
>>290613892Where is Petra?
>>290611918>>290611930Hilshire should stop making Triela an alkie
>>290616345We've seen how the agency bamboozled Petra's guardians and we've seen them bribe Ange's next of kin. Also Amsterdam-Milaan is a €50 2 hour fight on a good day with a budget airline. Or a 12½ hour drive give or take 2½ hours, and there haven't been any border checks there since the 90' so that's probably the safest way for him to get his undocumented loli to weltmeister in prostectics italy. >>290621073He should also stop drugging her and stop making her kick and shoot Italians.
>>290622047>traveling through any sort of publicly available transit with a comatose child with recent bloody stumps for an arm and a leg.Anon, I already know the answer to the question because I've already read it. I'm just asking the questions that haven't been answered, but will be in short order.
>>290621073She might as well enjoy it while she can, and they are on the continent.
>>290612061>>290612078ohOHHHH it was a DATE!>Doesn't leave Triela to visit his mom who calls him and begs him to come home>leaves Triela to go on a fun date with a hot prosecutorBased Hilschire
>>290612200Yeah, as that other anon said, this could almost just as easily apply to JeanI wonder who Jean's Hilschire is?
>>290611930based
>>290611856I'm not exactly sure why, but this is probably one of my favorite title pages in the manga. last chapter's title page with the shotgun hug is probably much more iconic. but Triela staring into the flame has a sort of indescribable quality to it, it could both be incredibly mundane and thoughtless while also being the sort of action that accompanies silent prayer and hope.
>>290627994Right? It looks so cool
Storytime anon what scan are you using? I've been wanting to catch up since I'm lagging behind (by like 30 chapters now) and the mangadex scan is kind of grungy
>>290611735Thanks
>>290624264He does not want Mom to find out about his loliwife.>>290612169I love that the artist did not cop out and choose a less busy background for the scene.
Bump of the day.
>>290634235Thank you anon! Time for a new chapter!
All according to keikaku.
>>290629947Hi anon, I got it from nyaa. Good thing I did, seems to be the last one publicly remaining so I suggest if others can make copies, because it runs the risk of becoming lost media after all these years.
Time for a Hillshire solo mission!
>>290634996
Honestly Triela doesn't seem to mind much but maybe its the conditioning.
Must have really good senses. Did they ever say if the cyborgs got enhanced smell or its just a Triela thing?
He is doing it to protect her, in a way its something that needed to be said
Chapter 52 "Assassination Mission" endsI am really enjoying Hillshire and Triela's relationship. Also he was so cool while competing this solo mission, felt kind of like a noir show
Hillshire is only protecting his own feelings by doing this.
They shouldnt hire pedos
>>290635308Well realistically Triela will have a shorter lifespan the more she takes the drug
>>290634901Wonder why they bolded dinner in the 4th panel.
>>290636761Guess because its an order?
>>290635439Maybe Hilshire shouldn't be lax on her training and let her larp as a normal girl so she wouldn't job and need to get jacked up on more drugs when they fix her.
>>290635129He kind of said as much in chapter 50, and Triela's retort from back then still stands: asking her to aprehend and shoot people without getting hurt herself is unreasonable.But as Hilshire identified in chapter 51 asking her to NOT gun down persons of interest is equally unreasonable because it's her only job and she won't live long enough to learn to do something else nearly as well.Him going out and doing more fieldwork to give Triela some slack seems like a reasonable compromise. Or it would be if he was someone like Marco rather than the biggest jobber in the agency. Hilshire jobbed to Franka of all people. I don't think there's a single instance of him drawing his gun and not jobbing in the whole manga.Taking down three grown men with firearms is relatively low risk for Triela, but for Hilshire it's something that carries significant risk even with careful planning and the element of surprise. So now the only way for Triela to protect her handler is for her to just not be, and cause him to thust himself into danger?
>>290639436Tue, its a fun conundrum and Jean probably won't find it acceptable that Hillshire risks his life just for the sake of a cyborg Jean finds expendable. They exist to kill those accursed Padanians after all.
>>290635147Sankyuu!
>>290640680Glad you enjoyed, anon!
>>290640673Jean also knows that if he gets Triela needlessly killed, he loses a good agent and gains a major liability. Hilshire has loyal connections outside of the Agency, besides, Jean is a huge hypocrite with regards to how he treats the cyborgs anyway.
It’s too late at this point but Hilshire really should’ve specced Triela into a sniper build like Rico.
>>290635351too bad they can only hire Italians
>>290635351Onii-chan what are we going to do on the bed?TN: onii-chan means fratello in some far-off oriental language
>>290641737Rico can snipe, provide support fire and fight in CQB, but Triela refuses to give up her trenchgun
